Device function?
Here is an enhanced photo.
Scent dispenser is a good guess, but seems like that would be distributed through the HVAC system? It must be for an option because it does not appear in this image from the Konfigurator:

If you look inside of it, does it look like a little speaker? I ask because the E300 with the Acoustic Comfort Package has an annoying feature:
" engine noise over speaker"- I would hope that MB didn't do the same thing in the GLE. I don't need to hear artificial engine noise inside my car (I hate that).

The two reviewers in the video I posted at #1823 specifically mention that MB is not using any artificial noise-cancellation tricks to mask engine noise. The comments are at 2:30 minutes.

I spotted what appears to be working exhaust tips on a GLE 450 in this German video:
Here is the link to the full video:

This is for 450
I found this on my Canadian order guide, for the 350 if you order AMG exterior only upgrade to 345mm front. 400mm will be a 15” disc

It seems to be there since both pics are at different angles of the push start button and the sensor being located underneath that area.. That sensor should be standard for the front and the rear being located elsewhere.. I'm not sure if MB uses infrared or the seatbelts to monitor occupant body temp to automatically adjust the climate control output..

I forgot to mention about inventory. I checked several large dealers in the West and they are virtually out of GLE’s. I’m sure there are more in other areas. One dealer that had over 80 in November is now down to just 4 now. There’s no reason for MB to hold back.
