With a smart interior, a wide range of engines and comfortable cruising manners, there’s plenty to like about the Mercedes GLE. The main issue is that there are rivals that are even more practical, comfortable or better to drive. The 300d makes the most sense, while company car drivers will do well with one of the PHEVs. You’ll need AMG Line Premium trim to get seven seats, otherwise we recommend Urban Edition.
This mid-level trim adds a panoramic sunroof, exterior side steps, a third row of seats (for non-PHEV models), four-zone climate control and a head-up display.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we partnered with Autotrader to bring the biggest selection of discounted new cars available in the UK
