Mercedes-Benz GLE SUV GLE 350 d 4Matic AMG Line Premium Plus 7 seats 9G-Tronic auto 5d Owner Review

One of the most comfortable cars I’ve owed. It like driving an armchair. Surprisingly economical on long journeys, several times it has exceeded 42 mpg driving from midlands to the Lake District. The only time it becomes a nuisance is on small lanes. It feels so much bigger than the Range Rover Sport it replaced. Cameras though are far better than the Range Rover. Like all cars this size they can be a little willowy gone round the bends. Overall I can’t fault it, after 15 months it hasn’t put a foot wrong been cheaper to run than I expected. Everything as you would expect is electrically operated seats 6 and 7 are ok but I wouldn’t want to travel any great distance in them but the room can be expanded by electrically moving the middle row of seats which also recline. Air suspension means you are riding a magic carpet.
