Please note - there is a difference between GLE and the GLE "coupe" - and that difference is more than skin deep - more detailed info will be confirmed when Dealer Order Guide is released expected later this month..

I quickly glanced at the press release and the 0-60 time for both gle350 and gl400 are 7.5s? Shouldn't the gle400 be faster?

Other than the rear end/hatch and roof design, they are the exact same vehicle. The GLE Coupe will drive sportier due to some minor suspension changes.

Please understand the two initial Dealer Order Guides - for the GLE W166 and the GLE C292 Coupe - have been released to dealers on Tuesday night - andthe two separate series designations - W166 and new C292/coupe represent different Mercedes platforms platforms.
