No GLE 63 S for 2023?
My Dealer thinks that orders will open in June for the 2023 GLE 63S so I have my name in for their first allocation but…
At best it would be nearly a year for delivery. Then my theory is that the GLE 63S might appear as an E Performance model.
A recent article by Motor 1 rumors that the G Wagon is being pushed out to 2024-will that happen to the GLE 63 S also?

See this post detailing possible issues with E Performance maybe requiring it be redesigned as a PHEV with a larger battery:

Does anyone have any insight beyond the usually very good info from Fabbris1 d?

I think there’s a good chance that the issue with the E Performance setback is going to delay the V8 further. It’s not business as usual since the new EPA GHG regulations mandate much lower greenhouse gas emissions over the next 4 years. The E Performance V8 with a 10% improvement in emissions would seem to be required to meet the new GHG regs. Admittedly, I fell asleep trying to read the final regs passed in mid December but prior drafts required a 2.5% improvement in emissions each year over 4 years…among more specifics by type of emissions.
Edit-Should have said for the US Market. The V8’s are still available in Europe.
