The new Mercedes GLE 63S combines the power and road superiority of an SUV, with the typical sports car acceleration and engine sound of a sports car!
The Mercedes GLE 63S Coupé skilfully embodies the firmly established principles of Mercedes-Benz design: sensuousness and clarity. The top-of-the-range V8 model from Affalterbach manages in an emotively appealing way to bring the fascination of motor sport to everyday life with a powerful dominance. A very first glance reveals the new four-door coupé to be an extrovert, proudly standing on its large wheels.

The higher-powered Mercedes GLE 63S also features added benefits in the interior. For even more intense contact with the vehicle, the grip area of the Performance steering wheel is in DINAMICA microfibre. A sporty look also dominates the driver’s field of vision. The passengers are accommodated on high-grade exclusive nappa leather upholstery. AMG medallions in the head restraints lend the interior a special, luxurious note. Set against black interior appointments, the grey seat belts and grey contrasting topstitching produce yet further highlights.
The five transmission modes of "Slippery", "Individual", "Comfort", "Sport" and "Sport Plus", controlled through the centre console – delivers a variety of different driving dynamics. Be it the response of the engine, the shift strategy of the transmission, ESP® thresholds, power assistance for the steering or characteristics of the dampers: the system networks all these control systems – generating different distinct driving experiences.
The AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine develops a maximum power of 430 kW and 760 Nm of torque.
This 8-cylinder power-plant from Mercedes-AMG, which is assembled according to the “one man, one engine” philosophy, delivers the familiar powerful performance: the Mercedes GLE 63S Coupé accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. Fuel consumption values of 11.9 litres per 100 kilometres (NEDC (combined); CO2: 278 g/km) and compliance with the EU6 standard demonstrate that maximum power, efficiency and environmental compatibility are by no means mutually exclusive for Mercedes-AMG.
