Hi all,
I havebt been on this thread much but I'm narrowing my search down to 2019 X5 and new gle.
Has anyone discussed pricing? Id be interested in the 450. Will third row be avialable from the start? Do we have expected dates it'll arrive or aany idea when configurator will be up online?
X7 numbers came out. Spoke to two dealers. Wanted full MSRP. Base car no option 76.5 was 1163 with over 6k due at signing on a 8 percent tax 36/15. Ouch.
X5 there are reports of dealers going under invoice which is appealing to me as I don't want to spend more than 1k. My wife wants the big GLS but it'll be replaced soon
Anyone secure a good price on the upcoming gle? Thanks!

Greg your dealer has more than the six I checked combined. Mercedes Beverly Hills has one 350, MB San Diego has Six 400’s....no 350’s. Since some of these are probably Service Loaner vehicles the “for sale” numbers are even lower.
#1860
I also included a screenshot in #1573 - results may vary. Even with improved aero and electric assist, given the current GLE 400 is rated at 20 combined (same as my 2012), and given the Euro numbers, no way it will be close to 28. 23 would be a reasonable guess. I'm willing to place a wager on that
Actually the reviewers are getting 28 mixed driving with the GLE450 4 Matic.

EPA fuel economy ratings aren’t out yet, but I saw around 28 mpg in mixed driving in both GLEs according to their trip computer.
https://www.thecarconnection.com/ove...gle-class_2020
The GLE450’s 48-volt electric system provides some assist and allows the crossover SUV’s gas engine to turn off under light load cruising situations, which should help fuel economy
On our initial preview drive, we saw an indicated 30 mpg in mostly highway driving in the GLE350 and 27 mpg on a similar route in the GLE450.

The GLE450’s turbocharged inline-6 is paired to a 48-volt mild hybrid system that adds power and should save fuel. EPA fuel-economy ratings aren’t yet available, but the trip computer said that my test car averaged nearly 30 mpg in mixed driving. A similar drive in a GLE350 returned roughly the same number.

Just got a call from my dealer, Mercedes-Germany confirmed they added (DC7) E-Active Body Control to my build. Now I can hop my way out of the showroom and curve my way home.
I have to give a huge shout-out to Cheryl in Distribution. She called Germany several times over the past 2 weeks in my behalf. Thanks also to MB Germany for the great customer service!

You can't have leather dash/doors with the technology package. You can have it without, last I heard.

Standalone option U38 gives you leather on dash and doors; U09 is MB-Tex.
Wow, so that $93k vehilce is sans a leather interior/seating surfaces?!?
What option code give you leather and napa leather?
Thanks

For the record a base GLE 450 with Premium 1 and MBUX Technology Package would be less than $66k. Many buyers avoid costly options but I've always wanted them and have been willing to pay to play. But I'm certain a base 350 or 450 will be a very fine SUV.

Base or not
Well, some of us (me), keep going through the Order Guide to see if there's a way to trim down options and keep the GLE cost closer to the amount paid for the previous (2018) version. Not much luck so far...
