Quote: I started seeing these popping up here and there. How do you feel about it? At some point I was considering getting 450 despite of 48V concern because I feel 350 is rather slow. It's not my DD so it's not big deal but sometimes we take hers on long drives. I waited for the refresh to decide. But now that I see them on streets I'm not sure if I want it anymore. The new front light gives me the GLC look. Anyone else feels the same way?
The 350 now has the same ISG/48Volt battery so getting the 350 doesn’t gain a thing.

Quote: I actually own the 2024 gle350 with pinnacle package and I love the car so far. The stop and go is definitely better than the 2021 gle models. I do agree with the headlights and was lucky to find a pinnacle with 3rd row seat and 95% of what I wanted on the car. I do have extra like the heated rear seats and the 4 zone temperature and soft closing doors. The only thing it didn’t have was the driver assistance package that I would like but it’s not something that would have been a deal breaker for me. All and all, I really like the car.
Yeah it makes sense because it has 48V now. Pre refresh shakes like someone hit you.

I wasn't planning on getting a 350. Lol.

The inline 4 was not as balanced as inline 6 (I guess physics) so that was probably why, the 48V on the post refresh solved that as you expect.
