    Test drove the 2022 MB 350 GLE last week. Fell in love with the car. Received my car of choice in one week. This my 6th MB over a 20 year period. Love the looks 21 inch wheels and great gas mileage. 25 gal tank. With the high price of gasoline now.. this is a big Game Changer. The ride is excellent and you get most of the luxury features found in their big sedans. Being able to receive in one week my color choice with all the necessary options I wanted with 21 inch 5 spoke wheels and a smaller engine was a no brainer.

    I like the front end, stance and interior of the merc. Current car is an M550i but would def cross shop the two of these. I would think the BMW has a sportier driving feel to it and I like the back end and double tail gate. A nice feature you don't see on too many vehicles.

    I have a 2023 BMW X5 xDrive45e and so far I'm very happy. It is robust, feels sporty and strong, drives like a bull and has quality all around. My friend has a Mercedes GLE 350 and also drives and looks good but is more soft, standard 4 Cyl and the unified screen replaced many buttons. I had the option to buy the BMW or the MB, but highly preferred the BMW. For me it looks much more sporty, more robust, comes with 3 yrs, included service and the best of all mine had a $7500 tax credit. I beliewe women will be more towards the MB and men towards the BMW,.

    nice to see them next to each other... the bmw lights are striking - both front and rear. the front of the merc is sharp and the amg line gives it an athletic stance. the back half of the merc is underwhelming though - looks like the ML of 20 years ago. as for interiors the merc doesn't seem to have much of a benefit for moving the gear selector up to the stalk, could use that space better. like that bmw has angled things back to the driver, after all it's a drivers' car. the merc interiors are always luxurious but looks a little tacky in places like the fake vents next to the screen. i'm sure it's an opulent experience but not sure it all fits together as cleanly as the bmw. fit follows function in these cars, the x5 is sporty and the merc is luxury - both are great vehicles and can't really go wrong

    Drove the GLE400d in the UK fully optioned. Was a horrendous drive wanted to turn around and take it back to the dealership after 20 mins. Ride and handling were poor even in air suspension. The ride crashed and fidgeted endlessly. Transmission tunnel intrusion was unacceptable in RHD. Driving the Cayenne was in contrast a wonderful experience. Drive the X5 45e in a couple of weeks will then make a decision. Wanted to like the Merc, but a flawed product.

    Test drove a new GLE 350, I was really expecting to love it. Just the opposite though, the interior felt kind of cheap, and the drive, handling, everything really, felt like a bouncy mid-range caravan. The dash being very straight across with a kind of cheap looking steering wheel sticking out, it just reminded me of a old buick. Not saying everyone will love the X5, but it is much more refined, much better engine (IMHO), more reliable (read user reviews of the newer GLE's......), and definitely a more sporty drive. If you are looking to spend big $$ on a soccer parent car, the GLE maybe is a good choice.....

    All automatic transmissions are electronically operated, why does any manufacturer still utilize a shift lever, whether on the steering column or the console? Push buttons do the job efficiently and don’t waste space. By the way, no contest in the physical appearance, the Mercedes Benz is much more attractive.

    The Mercedes’ GlE looks Sad , that light makes it look unwelcoming plus it’s too round and taillight looks like glc and the rest BMW X5 looks aggressive and will tells the car in front to move over, it looks strong agile and well balanced on the road, tail gate is awesome, fact it has the split is very good for your dog getting in, loading heavy items and sliding it in and can sit in it for picnics, it’s electric split as well which is really clever . Interior , minimalist but packed full of tech. Mercedes interior looks like an afterthought. They done the dash then remembered they need to put the infotainment, then slapped the long screen in the front. It does not look expensive the long line of flat glass over a vent. It looks like A class. Bmw again is better in looks and styling. It’s got adaptive dampers that makes you choose from comfort and sport, quipped with air suspension but still sportier and comfortable than the Mercedes’ .. I have test driven both and now gonna buy the bmw !!
