So I noticed a bug in the configurator.
You can't select Airmatic alone, E-ABC must be included as well. I know this is false since I ordered mine this way.
My GLE 450 build comes out to $91,989 CAD
989 Emerald Green Metallic
205 Macchiatto Beige
H22 Brown Open-pore Walnut Wood
MPP Premium Pkg
MTP Tech Pkg
MSP Sport Pkg
297 Roller Blinds
311 Climate controlled cupholders
489 Airmatic suspension
581 Thermotronic
846 Aluminum Running boards
866 Accessory Pre-installation
L3D Wood/Leather steering wheel
U80 115V Power Socket

And there is an option not available in the configurator - PAF Acoustic Comfort Package $1,100 (laminated glass + extra sound proofing material)
Seems max is 3 year lease. I was hoping for a 4 year lease when it should coincide with the face-lifted model in 3 to 4 years time.

I also don't see any AMG interior package. Is that intentional? Would be nice to have the AMG steering wheel if it can be heated.
On a side note, can anyone confirm if the back seats are adjustable at all without the third row seat?

The Canadian DOG lists the two AMG interiors (AMG Nappa Leather, AMG Exclusive Nappa Leather) as not available, so you won't see them in the configurator. Same applies for the H86 AMG Carbon Fibre Trim.

Had the GLE 450 ordered last month, but now the dealer said that the trailer hitch and MBUX interior assistant option are "on hold" and cannot be ordered.
And there is no ETA. They claim that trailer hitch is standard on the GLS and it has priority over the GLE
So decided to get the X5 instead.
Apart from the two unavailable options, the lack of 4 year lease also bugs me - as after 3 years, it would be too soon for the facelifted/LCI model.
My wife also really wants the massage chair that our current GLE has. But it requires a $1990 leather + $2600 comfort package, which bundles all the extra things I don't need like the fragrance air and ventilated seats (we rarely park our car under the sun in the summer).
4 zone climate control is a $1350 option, and only electric version of rear window roller blind is available $850; no manual roller blind if I don't want that option.
The X5 40i ended up cheaper; I saved over $200 per month lease as compared with the GLE450, even though it has 4 zone climate control, massage chair, air suspension, manual roller blind, electric/hide away rear compartment cover and trailer hitch which would be absent from my GLE450 build.
Good luck and enjoy the GLEs when they arrive.

Just wish they have manual blind if I don't want the motorized one, as my kids are now driving my car more times than sitting at the back.

I noticed the configurator force to order the 3k dollars ADAS when you select the e-active body control; that's annoying and you can get the abc suspensions in US without ordering the optional ADAS.

What do you mean by ADAS? Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
The E-ABC requires IDP (Intelligent Drive Pkg) and MPP (Premium Pkg) as well as 489 Airmatic.
It's kind of logical. I checked and the configurator, and IDP has:

2nd row seat adjustability
The AMG wheel is not available heated. The 2nd row is not adjustable without the 3rd row option. In Europe that is a separate option.
