The lightweight, fully beltless engine is also electrified: An Integrated Starter-Generator can supply up to 21 hp and 184 lb-ft at certain rpm, allow gas-free coasting, and recapture energy during deceleration.
An electromechanical coupling between the front and rear axles is controlled based on an elaborate matrix of driving mode, lateral and longitudinal acceleration, and available grip to help optimize handling and acceleration.
Six modes (Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Slippery, Trail and Sand) alter the throttle response, suspension settings, steering feel, and gear shifting characteristics including rpm, shift speed and even acoustic qualities.
The AMG® Performance brakes feature perforated 15.75-inch front rotors and silver-painted calipers. The discs are cast with the holes in place, enhancing strength and better resisting the stresses of high heat.
A dramatically advanced cabin concept pairs fresh technology with fine craftsmanship. Standard 64-color ambient lighting allows ongoing customization whenever the mood strikes.
In addition to fingertip buttons for features like audio, Bluetooth® and cruise control, smartphone-like pads offer direct control of nearly every cockpit feature.
MBUX integrates digital in-dash displays including a touchscreen, touch-sensitive controls, Bluetooth® hands-free and audio streaming, and an available industry-advancing voice control system.
A large touchpad controller on the console lets you operate the in-dash central touchscreen while your hand rests comfortably at your side. The touchpad works a lot like your smartphone.
Brushed metal pedals with rubber studs offer confident footwork with high-performance style.
Pneumatically adjustable lumbar and side supports offer custom-tailored comfort. Eight massage programs can soothe and rejuvenate your back and shoulders.
The rear seat is among the widest in its class, with comfort for three adults. It folds down in a 40/20/40 split, offering a variety of cargo and passenger configurations.
The AMG® GLE Coupe rushes ahead with triple-boosted torque, one of them electric, a digital cockpit with class-leading technology, and a powerful fusion of SUV capability and AMG coupe character.
Vertical-bar AMG® grille, deep front apron, sweeping roofline, three-dimensional LED taillamps and deep diffuser leave a lasting impression as you pass more ordinary vehicles.
Distinctively chiseled AMG® alloy wheels feature Y-shaped spokes. All-season tires are staggered in width (275/45R21 front and 315/40R21 rear) for greater acceleration grip without sacrificing crisp steering feedback.
