Check out exactmats.com. I’ve used this product for years. High quality and looks good.
The mats don't look like they hold any water/snow/slush, which defeats the purpose of having a mat in the first place. All that water would end up under the clear mat, and soak up the factory mat and carpeting, and won't be allowed to evaporate, leading to rust/corrosion. Also, you aren't supposed to superimpose mats at all for safety reasons.
= Hard pass on those.
Back to OP, when I had a 2016 GLE, the MB mats were rebranded WeatherTechs. I would imagine the same thing is the case now with the 2020, but I too would like a confirmation of that.
We went with the weathertech ones for our GLE. Like tiri said I do believe that MB still uses weathertech mats for the OEM mats and just changes the branding labels.
The fit is perfect, completely filling the wheel wells
Here's a quick pic of our GLE mats. Front/rear/cargo

Exactmats exist as protection for the OEM carpeted mats underneath. Some of us live in places with no snow, slush nor excessive moisture. When you try to sell or turn in the car, the OEM mats years later will look brand new. A complete set for a GLE including cargo area cost $144 delivered. I just bought them. Weathertech mats are ugly but will be much more effective if that’s the environment in which they will be used.
I have the Mercedes mats and the low wall cargo mat is completely different than WeatherTech. The factory cargo mat is a low skid design that I really like but the downside is it can be a little more difficult to slide objects on the mat when loading.
My mats were comped by the Dealer but the cargo was the high wall that wasted space. I bought the Factory low wall and got a discount of 10% from my Dealer. The low one still has enough lip to contain spills.
Just picked up GLE OEM liner floor mats, front, 2nd row, 3rd row & trunk.
So got confirmation these are exactly same as Weathertech with Benz logo.
Got 15% discount, picking up new GLE 350 this weekend will update once installed.
I personally will never buy flat rubber mats, useless if you spill something. My understanding is weathertech should last the life of the SUV, so worth investing.
Btw, Chevron giving $10 free Gas with $10 gas purchase for healthcare, so got filled up few cans of premium plus ahead, with this lockdown not sure how much I will be able to use it.

‘Those look nothing like my Mercedes Floor Mats & cargo mat. I purchased mine almost a year ago ago so either they have changed suppliers or they have two different suppliers. Mine have a raised square pattern. I’m on the road in our Audi so can’t take a picture.
I purchased Premium at Costco this morning for under $2🤑
These are my OEM mats....nothing like the WeatherTech. As I said the cargo mat has soft rubber, raised squares that provide the best non-skid surface of any mat I’ve owned previously. They are raised about 1/4”. The high wall mat that came with my car was a harder surface and was slicker but also OEM and a different design than either WT or my current ones. I’m all for supporting US Companies but WT wasn’t available and mine came with the vehicle.

I have those same mats as well since the WeatherTechs were not available last summer.
I prefer this material over the WTs, but I prefer the coverage the WTs provide.

Can you share a picture? These seems to be disagreement here on whether there are Weathertech mats that are MB branded. Do you happen to have an item number as well?
The confusion is this - YES the 167 mats are made by WeatherTech - the 167 Front Row mats are a new design exclusive to MB I am told are made by WeatherTech - I have been told by customers - but not seen for myself that the Front 166 'trays' will still fit).
The 167 Rear Cargo shown above is the same 166 Rear Cargo Tray's (made by Weathertech) - the raised squares were designed to allow the MB rear cargo box to which has molded female squares to fit-in/no-sliding.
WeatherTech did not have a mat for the 167 GLE early last year. Several of us inquired and were told that they were working on it. My OEM mats from April of 2019 are not WeatherTech because they advertise that they are made in the USA. My front and rear mats are stamped “made in Poland”....rear cargo is stamped “made in Germany”.
It could be that Mercedes switched to WeatherTech later in 2019-at least for North America.
So much confusion in this thread. Since I got my WeatherTech floor LINERS today, I thought I'd update it and post some pictures.
1. Mercedes does not sell a product equivalent to the WeatherTech floor LINER. Not yet anyway.
2. Mercedes does sell a product equivalent to the WeatherTech floor MAT. It may or may not be made by WeatherTech for Mercedes.
3. Mercedes floor MAT product is available in black only.
4. WeatherTech's floor LINER product fits perfectly and is available in four colors, Black, Tan, Light Gray and Cocoa.
5. Pictures of the cocoa floor LINER are below. I did not get the gray color as I have some in my BMW and the gray is much too light in color. Obviously the cocoa doesn't match the carpet but it does match the other bits of espresso brown in the interior so it looks like it belongs. That's what I told my wife anyway.
They look great! I bought the same liners in black. I was able to find a Mercedes-Benz sticker badge replacement for the WeatherTech sticker badge from a small online store.

Thanks! This is super helpful! do you have a picture of the third row? Btw the brown looks great!
