Do we have snow mode on the GLE? I only have off road mode so not sure if it is just the same.

 

You can get snow mode and sport+ if you have RJ Automotive program it, along with other things.

 

question is what is the difference between that and off-road setting?

 

That I cannot answer as I have not used either.

 

I don't see any snow mode in my 22 GLE OM, but my AMG supplement describes the snowflake icon as "slippery" mode. I have yet to use it, but there's only this from the AMG manual :



I've been in I* around town most days, and C on highway. Tried Race a couple of times (RJA enabled this mode thru coding). Used Trail a couple of times to pass thru some deep puddles. Not much need for slippery in Florida. Even in heavy rain my I* mode is fine (of course I slow down due to the poor conditions). Maybe someone else knows more, but this is all I can find.

 

Snow mode likely adjusts the traction control, transmission and torque distribution to optimize for slippery conditions.

 

I can't say I've ever seen the need for it.

 

Start in 2nd gear, desensitized accelerator pedal and 4ETS sensitivity.

 

I wonder if Off-road and snow mode is the same. Well I have to wait to find out and hopefully the snow has not melted.

 

At low speeds Off-Road might be best in snow, but I'd think ECO would be overall closest to a dedicated Snow mode, so that's what I use. The exception would be if ECO forces the vehicle into 2WD more often, but I don't think that's the case with the GLE. It is odd that Mercedes doesn't offer a snow mode. I'll wager more people drive on snow and/or ice far more frequently than they drive off-road.

Yes, my 2022 GLE53 AMG has "Slippery" mode.

 

Was out this morning on snow covered roads and experimented with available driving profiles a little. ECO mode seemed to off the best control but the difference between ECO and Comfort was barely noticeable.
