What accessories come with the 2020 GLE 350?

I just got two USB Type C to USB female adapters. Is that all that is supposed to come with the GLE? No USB C to lighting etc? Wondering what else is supposed to come with it or is that it?

Thank you

See this post and some of the replies immediately after it. As far as cables go, you only get the USB type-C adapter, nothing else. It's a bit of a mystery if you should get none, 1, 2 (like me), or even 3 in some cases.

What's interesting is that even my USB-C devices don't have a C-C cable.

Not sure if anything has changed since the dealer order guide was published in early 2019, but on page 26 under Comfort & Concenience, it specifies 3 USB-A to USB-C adapters.

Interesting... The latest DOG doesn't have this anymore, not sure when it was removed.

My dealer was too cheap to provide any this summer, however, I do not see any requirement in the Canadian DOG to include any either.
Here's the quote from the M-B.ca site:
Five USB-C ports
State-of-the-art USB-C connectors allow plug-and-play enjoyment from your compatible devices as well as fast charging of your phone. With one in the storage tray, two in the front console, and two more for the second row, there's a port within reach of every passenger.

Mercedes sent out a bulletin to the dealers informing them that Mercedes would no longer supply the adaptors.
You will have to get them through the dealership parts dept.

The MB Parts Dept gets killed by MB Prices on "MB Approved" cables and adapters... just get adapters from Amazon...

Better yet just get a cable direct to your phone and eliminate the adaptor cable. I bought a 1’ C to C and it’s about perfect for either the front area (wireless charging pad location) or in the center console storage tray. There are other options if your phone doesn’t have the newer USB C port.

There are USB-C to Lightning cables, as well. I got this one:

And here is another slightly less expensive Anker cable, that works for me

That was my original plan because it is the cleanest. But then I always seem to have someone that wants to charge something that does not have a C connector. I also needed something for my usb sticks when updating my NAV. They are cheap enough to have both.

I've been looking in the doc you attached in page 26 and searched it as well, but can not find any refernce to USB adapters.

Can you please help me find it?

Yeah, early ones, including mine, came with three, then they cheapened up. Latest DOG does not mention them, so if you get even one you're lucky!
