Yes, this is likely still a V167. Sometimes you will see W167 referring to the current model, because that was what it was assumed to be after the W166. The C167 is the coupe variant.

GLE 450 Coupe
I was able to order a GLE coupe in mid-January. Dealer had an allocation for late March build. Based on what your dealer told you I wonder if my car will be one of the last 2026 models.

They likely facelifted it again because it was planned before people slowed down on EV adoption. As in possibly planned to extend current gen life cycle and next gen go fully electric. Obviously plans had changed because of the market.

The market is majorly influenced by the current administration's ant-EV stance and termination of tax rebates.

And new fueling stations aren't installing change stations - just petro. (Pre Trump builds )
The Majors must not have been expecting much more EV growth in the past few years.

just got out of the 2024 NY Auto Show and saw the GLE updates in person. They're definitely going for a more aggressive look with the new front grille and bumpers, plus the updated infotainment system looks snazzy too.
