I have a deposit down for a 2025 GLE 450 allocation and in talking to the sale rep this afternoon, he said there’s been no indication to dealerships yet when the order guide will be released and when those allocations will open up. Starting to get antsy since 2024 builds have been closed for over 6 weeks now.
For what it’s worth, I’m getting an error when I try to use the builder on Mercedes’ website. Maybe they’re in the process of updating it to reflect 2025 changes?
Eaton said the GLE/GLS is one of the few (along with CLE, EQB, and GT 4-Door) to not have any 2025 order guide available yet, but I expect it's imminent. Still, it would be weird for them to be updating the website so soon, as if history tells us anything, even if 2025s start production in June and sales in July, we shound't see the 2025s on the website until March of next year! But who knows maybe mbusa has turned a new leaf.
I’m hopeful the Manufaktur interior options are finally launching for the GLE but we’ll see how limited those are. However, I’m disappointed that it doesn’t look like the rear power shades are being included as an option like pre ‘22 model years.
Fingerprint sensor sounds more convenient than pin password at this moment, so I would be excited for that. However, I am a bit irked that they removed the augmented video for navigation since I think that is a cool gimmick, even though it only works on the center display and not in HUD in other higher-end sedan/EQ models. Why they reintroduce 2 wheel drive? Seems like a waste on a GLE which is supposedly higher end of the line.
Where did you obtain this screenshot? I am curious about the new manufaktur options listed.
My understanding is that netstar is only available to Mercedes employees.
i liked the idea of the Manufaktur interiors but i think they missed not doing the diamond stitch and none of the colors are that great. Hard to digest at $12,250.

Hard agree.
Curious to know if you have the list of upholstery, packages, and options pages as well?
Thank you!
Augmented Video for Navigation/dashcam looks like it is limited. I wonder what caused this shortage. MB-Tex Steering Wheel mentions animal-free, which means my 24' GLE 450 exclusive nappa interior is all animal? Lol!
Offroad Package is a welcome, I like the underguards. But it is only available for 580.
Otherwise I don't see too much of a change between 24' and 25's. I was hoping for digital lights or 3d instrument cluster or e-active body or some other fun gimmick.
The pictures are not clear, where is the fingerprint sensor located?

Can you post the GLE53 AMG Order guide? The GLE order guide you posted, references the GLE53AMG and 63, but no options seem to pertain to it in what you posted. Thank you!

The AMGs aren’t showing up in netstar and no ordering guide yet. Apparently it’s normal for them to come later.
My dealer has said that while the configurator has opened up, allocations have not yet. Are others hearing anything different? I’m going in today and will hopefully have more details.

The AMGs are now showing up in netstar but my rep wasn’t able to find the order guide for them yet.
One interesting takeaway from working with the sales rep in the netstar configurator is that when choosing the Airmatic suspension, it forces the Pinnacle package to be added. It doesn’t look like this is indicated in the order guide.
That’s about $4k I wasn’t planning on spending but am excited about things like the upgraded headlights.
So, U19 went "limited availability", added 2-wheel drive 350s, fingerprint sensor for whose who use profile PINs (not sure what for), 12k leather package (jeez), and off-road package finally appeared for 580. Got it, no real changes.
