GLE53 AMG Retired

When you rent a Mercedes-AMG GLE53 in New Jersey, you're commanding the performance SUV that rewrites what's possible in the luxury crossover segment. This AMG-tuned machine houses a 3.0L V6 turbocharged engine with EQ Boost mild hybrid producing 429 horsepower, delivered through 4 doors of track-inspired luxury.

This $105,324 MSRP performance SUV blends a turbocharged inline-6 with a 48-volt mild hybrid system for instantaneous throttle response and surprising efficiency.
