Mercedes-Benz GLE43 AMG



Introduction

The Mercedes-AMG GLE 43 presents an athletic appearance with characteristic AMG styling and a muscular stance ready for adventure. A 3.0-litre V6 BITURBO engine produces an exhilarating 367hp and can sprint from 0 to 100km/h in 5.7 seconds.

Refined styling distinguishes the GLE 43 as an AMG Sport model, with exclusive touches in black and silver chrome, plus characteristic ‘AMG’ badges on the front wings to set the model apart from the standard styling. An equally exclusive interior makes an impressive sight in black upholstery with red topstitching to create a truly refined experience.

A deep growl from the engine is reminiscent of powerful sports cars, and the occupants can easily feel as though they are in sports rather than off-road mode. The sporty feel is unmistakable despite the raised seating and expansive all-round view more like an SUV, so you can get all the performance of a sports car with the comfort of an SUV.

Safety

Expert engineering has made the Mercedes-AMG GLE 43 the safest model yet, with elastokinematics on the front axle and a more robustly designed rear-axle stabiliser bar, the vehicle achieves outstanding handling in all operating conditions. A variable steering ratio also allows a significantly improved high-speed driving safety.

The Adaptive Damping System ADS PLUS adapts the damping at each wheel to the current driving situation and road surface condition, as well as effectively reducing rolling and pitching when cornering or braking. The roll angle when cornering an even be compensated for to better effect with the ACTIVE CURVE SYSTEM.

Internally ventilated brakes with a dimeter of 375mm use special air ducting to guide the air flow towards the inside of the brake discs, optimizing the cooling of the brakes for supreme performance. A full complement of air bags and reinforced passenger cabin also make sure the GLE 43 is the safest possible ride, even at high speeds. 

Design

The Mercedes-AMG GLE 43 is poised and ready for action from all angles, the muscular stance and sporty features immediately showing its high-performance capability. A front splitter in silver chrome adds a distinguishing feature to add a touch of exclusivity to the AMG Sport model.

Beltline and window weather strip trim in black, along with black exterior mirrors add character to the sleek silhouette, and the GLE 43’s sportiness is underlined with features such as two chrome-plated AMG exhaust trim elements and AMG spoiler lip in vehicle colour on the boot lid.


The interior presents the sporty style with luxurious overtones, with AMG sports seats upholstered in ARTICO man-made leather and high side cushions for the ultimate comfort, even during higher lateral acceleration. The instrument cluster features two large round dials in classic AMG styling, with a central multifunction display providing all essential information in easy reach.
