Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum towing capacity of the 2026 GLE Coupe?

7,700 lbs when properly equipped with the factory-installed trailer hitch. This configuration is standard across the available models, so you can pull a large boat or utility trailer to Lake Tuscaloosa without compromising engine performance.

How much horsepower does the standard GLE 450 4MATIC Coupe generate?

375 horsepower from its 3.0L inline-6 turbo engine, which also features an integrated 48-volt mild-hybrid system that provides an instantaneous, smooth power boost during initial acceleration.

What is the maximum cargo space available inside the cabin?

64.1 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume when you fold the 40/20/40-split second-row seats flat. That translates to ample space for travel luggage, golf clubs, or bulky gear for weekend excursions in West Alabama.

How much rear cargo room is available when all five seats are in use?

31.6 cubic feet of dedicated space directly behind the second-row seats. This room is highly optimized despite the aggressive, sloping roofline, giving you everyday utility for grocery runs or shopping trips.

What is the city and highway fuel economy for the GLE 450 4MATIC Coupe?

An EPA-estimated 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. The integrated starter-generator and the ECO-START® system reduce idling during heavy traffic on Paul W. Bryant Drive. You can verify ratings at fueleconomy.gov.

An air suspension known as AMG RIDE CONTROL+ is standard on these high-performance models. Its self-leveling air springs and adaptive damping reduce body roll for smooth comfort and sharp handling.

Five adult passengers. The seat architecture maximizes headroom and legroom in both rows, so rear passengers enjoy a premium experience even with the coupe silhouette.

How quick is the high-performance AMG GLE 63 S Coupe?
