2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe Trims Comparison

2025 GLE-Class Coupe trim level differences

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe is a midsize four-door SUV with seating for five. It's based on the standard GLE but has a sharper rear roofline for a more sleek silhouette. The GLE Coupe is available in three trim levels: 450 4Matic Coupe, AMG GLE 53 Coupe and AMG GLE 63 S Coupe.

The base 450 4Matic Coupe is powered by a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that makes 375 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. The AMG GLE 53 Coupe gets a higher-output version of that engine tuned to 429 hp and 413 lb-ft. The AMG GLE 63 S Coupe, meanwhile, steps up to a turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine good for 603 hp and 624 lb-ft. All three come paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive as standard.

  • Lane keeping assistance (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Evasive steering assistance (enhances the forward collision mitigation system with steering-based collision avoidance)
  • Active lane change assistance (with adaptive cruise control engaged, can change lanes automatically after the driver activates the turn signal)
  • Active blind-spot assistance (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)
  • Cross-traffic collision detection
  • Emergency stop assistance (slows the vehicle to a stop and summons help if the driver is incapacitated)

Other stand-alone options include:

  • Soft-close doors (catch as they're being closed and gently pull shut)

  • Heated rear seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Integrated dashcam (records an image of the road ahead, which can be reviewed later)

Which 2025 GLE-Class Coupe trim does Edmunds recommend?

The AMG GLE 53 Coupe strikes the right balance of performance and luxury features for most buyers. This midtier version offers the same sporty fastback look as the top-dog AMG and many of the same features at a significantly lower price point. With the money you save, opt for the Pinnacle package for its head-up display, massaging front seats, and heated and cooled cupholders. We'd also add the Driver Assistance package to gain access to adaptive cruise control and other handy driver assist features.
