.............................................................
This is the new Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S, and Mat’s on hand to see if this almighty SUV has what it takes to go head-to-head with the BMW X5M!
Given it's an AMG performance SUV, there’s one thing we need to address first - the engine! Peer underneath the GLE’s big bonnet and you’ll find a 4-litre twin-turbo V8, with the ability to put down 612hp and an almighty 850Nm of torque! It also drives all four wheels thanks to a 9-speed torque converter automatic gearbox, and it’s claimed to be able to hit 60mph in 3.8 seconds.
So in the performance stakes, the GLE 63 can clearly go toe-to-toe with the best of them! But that’s not all - it can easily couple as a more than capable family car, too! With a gigantic 630-litre boot, coupled with a whole load of room in the back, you certainly won’t be short for space once you step inside this new SUV.
There’s one small issue though… The starting price is £112,000!! So we have to ask - is it really worth it? There’s only one man who can tell you for sure… Join Mat for his latest in-depth review!

This was filmed at the Millbrook Proving Ground test facility in the UK. I used to work here, and it brings immense joy and nostalgia seeing such a pretty place again. Please do more at MBK! Shame you didn't use the offroad facilities, which are equally as fun. That said, nice video as always, Mat.
