Can you please post a picture of the new location? I'm just curious to see it.

Just went hunting for one in my 2024 GLE 450e. There is a 12 volt socket in the driver's footwell at the very top left corner under the glovebox.

Yes. Depending on the 2024 vehicle there is a 12 Volt cigarette lighter style socket either in cargo area (mine's on the passenger side) or in the stowage compartment in the front center console. It should only be used to connect devices up to a maximum of 240 W (20 A). Otherwise its fuse may blow.

My SL has a 12 volt socket in the passenger footwell against the transmission housing. Perhaps there's one located there on your GLE

Nope just one in cargo area of my GLE, but
there are a bunch of USB-C's for front and back passengers

The driver’s footwell (bottom)…very top left corner…under gloverbox. Could you be any more ambiguous? Oh, MB is putting gloveboxes on the driver’s side now. Gotta see this and post pics of your 12 volt socket and its location for reference in your ‘24 450e.

Wow, right you are! Thank you, I would have never found that if you didn't mention it. Even has a spring lid cover. Mine's on the passenger front though.
