What level of car is the GLE?
1 Answers
It belongs to the mid-size luxury SUV category, being the SUV version of Mercedes-Benz's E-Class. Below is some introductory information about the GLE: 1. The GLE SUV engine is paired with full-time four-wheel drive, ensuring excellent and safe handling both on-road and off-road. 2. The single-speed transfer case evenly distributes driving force between the axles and directly transmits it to the automatic transmission. Compactness and lightweight were the primary considerations in designing this engine. Additionally, friction has been significantly reduced to lower fuel consumption, thereby reducing exhaust emissions without compromising strong output or torque. 3. The large-capacity catalytic converter is positioned extremely close to the engine, enabling quick response and further reducing emissions. 4. The standard-equipped ECO start/stop function can shut off the engine when the vehicle is stationary, reducing fuel consumption. 5. The air suspension system (AIRMATIC) components include air suspension and an adaptive damping system (ADS) with level control. The combination of these two reduces road noise and tire vibration characteristics while ensuring outstanding driving dynamics both on-road and off-road. The damping effect for each wheel is adapted to the current driving conditions and can be set to a more comfortable or sporty characteristic as needed.
