Auto Bild is almost close with their renderings. So I'd be a little worried.
Teh reliable AB sketches have always come from a different source.
They didn't even get the EVIDENT shape of the wheel wells correct. It has been OBVIOUS for a while that the GLE will have a squared up wheel well, as well as the black trim framing the arch, just like the GLC. If autobuild missed that, which is obvious, then i wouldn't give them too much credit. It's also been evident that the lower side crease will be different than what this shows.
 
The GLE 53 with twin blade grill? :)

So the possible lineup (U.S.) would be GLE450, GLE53 and GLE63. Hopefully Mercedes will reconsider a diesel for those fans. BMW is doing diesels in the U.S. again, why can't MB?

Damn that GLE looks good in that video above.

I am happy to see Mercedes are not putting in round air vents in this model compared to most other new Merc models. Refreshing change and a little old school.
 
I think it's going to look great in and out ...could be my next car I hope they using the new MB command like the A class.
 
from that video above I'd say that it has same UI as new A class so hopefully it will have new UI

They are not. It will have NTG 5.5, which is a quantum leap, but the new A-class platform will be the first to have the new one.

Sorry can you explain a bit more in detail?

So you mean the A class will have the newer system ? Or you mean A class willwbe first with MBUX and GLE will folow?
 
My understanding, as communicated by an official Mercedes trainer, is that the new A-platform vehicles will be the first to roll out this new tech. The next gen GLE will have NTG 5.5 and there is nothing formal on when MBUX will integrate into the rest of the product line.
