Personally, I like the shape of the headlights on the current GLE better. I know there are those who'll disagree. It's just my personal preference.

Can’t make out the Dark Gray one in the background, not a GLE but it has some nice looking wheels! Maybe need the aftermarket guys to start working on a Grab Handle removal kit, ha ha.

Can't figure out what the dark gray car in the background is. Doesn't appear to be a Mercedes though.

So, this should drive the OCD crazy if that's really how the hood will align with the bumper over the lights. It appears to be an odd angle and doesn't look like it fits right, at least to my eyes.

I agree but the wheels are different than any I’ve seen so far. Not that it matters.

Edit: it looks like the 2019 BMW X5 xDrive45e coming next year.

New Teaser shows the front LED’s! It shows a single bar grille and some trim in the right and left recessed area in the front bumper.

BACnM....After looking back at the pics you posted earlier it may be identical. So question now is that the GLE or the GLE 53? If I read it correctly the teaser says GLE.
Curious bit of trivia though. The interior pic has no grab handles and EQ on the screen. That would indicate that it’s the new electric , not a GLE.

Looks a little odd in the angled shot, but from straight on looks right.

Looking at these on my phone and somehow got to Joe’s post 452 where the front is identical but as he said it was the 53 and E. Sorry about my confusion on interior. But that said if the Teaser is the GLE then Joe and BACn Pics must be the GLE exterior!
Or very close to it?

The interior looks much better already. Wait and you'll see this GLE is going to kill it.

A week after the EQC - that's surprising! I was expecting 10/1 just before the Paris show.

Pricing and orders are now available for the Q8 and I think the X5, at least base prices. It’s a good move to get the reveal done now that the competition is out there. Besides that a lot of us will be able to make some decisions when it’s finally out in color and detail. Not that anyone is anxious!

2019 W166 GLE
So what's become of the 2019 W166 GLE whose guide was released by MBUSA back on 4/2 and updated on 6/25? It's still not on the website. To answer my own question, I imagine they are trying to move the last of the 2018s this month. Looks like it's going to be a really short model run.

The new X5 is on the BMW USA website with package & options pricing. The X5 xDrive40i starts at $60,700 + $995 destination. It arrives at dealers 11/10/18. The Q8 is not on the Audi USA website yet. Since the current 2018 GLE350 4MATIC starts at $54,700, I'm hoping the 2020 starts under $60k, but that may be wishful thinking.

Heres the Audi Q8 Order Guide with Pricing. Dealers have been taking orders for a few weeks. Orders must be strong, one report that he is 10th in line already. More Specs would be helpful!
