2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE 63

The 2020 Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 63 comes in two trims. One is the GLE 63 and the other one is the GLE 63 S. There is not much difference in both of them. Both of them have same features and are equipped with the same engine. But the engine in the 63 S is more finely tuned than the one in the GLE 63. Thus it generates a little more power than the GLE 63.

We recommend

If you have a knack for more power, the 63 S is what you need to go for. But since there are no major changes in both the trims, going for the GLE 63 would also be a wise option if only power and performance is not the only aspects you yearn for.

Like its predecessors, the 2020 GLE 63 continues to be a nasty thirsty beast. It gives an economy of 12 MPG in the city and 18 MPG on the highway, thus making up an average economy of 14 MPG. Looks like the engineers at the AMG ought to find a solution for its thirst.

Despite being an average power-packed performer, the GLE 63 is quite thirsty. Whereas the others in the class are capable of running a couple of miles extra than the GLE.

The interiors of the GLE 63 are filled up with quite some lush features that help the driver feel comfortable all through the ride. Moreover it has a headroom of 40.4 inches in the front and 38.5 inches in the back, a shoulder room of 58.5 inches in the front, and 58.4 inches in the back and a quite convenient legroom of 40.3 inches in the front and 38.4 inches in the back.

"What are you looking for from a luxury SUV? If it's comfort, ample cargo space and many available features, the  Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class could be for you. A wide range of available engines furthers its appeal." --Edmunds 

With such an impressive headroom, sub-par shoulder room and a gracious legroom, this 5 seater is quite spacious than most of its competitors and can easily fit in 5 people without making them feel congested.

2020 Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 63 vs Jaguar F-Pace SVR

The 2020 Jaguar F-Pace SVR is the topmost performance of the Jaguar's SUV class. It comes with a supercharged V8 engine which has been well-tuned to perform like a hellcat that just got unleashed from the hell. Now on the other hand when we look at the 2020 Mercedes AMG GLE 63, it gives a cut-throat competition to this Jaguar in all aspects. But what turns the tables is that the F-Pace is way economic than the GLE 63.

2020 Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 63 vs Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR

The 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR comes from a family of one of the most power-packed SUVs that has existed in the market for quite some time. The Land Rover has made this Range rover to be a total package that any SUV can offer. When compared to the GLE 63, it is quite a power-packed performer and has an upper hand in most of the other aspects too. So spending a $10,000 more for a better product seems to be quite a justifiable option.

2020 Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 63 vs Maserati Levante GTS

The 2020 Maserati Levante GTS makes its debut into the market of midsize power-packed Luxury SUVs this year. Well, it's quick, comfortable and quite updated. But still, after looking at what the GLE provides at a lesser price, the price that you pay for this Levante might not feel so justified. Going for the 63 S seems like a better option here than going for the Levante.

The GLE class has existed in the market for quite some time now and the Mercedes has surely figured out by now, what makes this SUV a perfect fit for the market. However there are still some drawbacks that they have to work on with the 2020 AMG GLE 63 such as reducing the thirst, improving the performance a little bit more, etc.
