The latter, to give the appearance of auto dynamism, is not located horizontally, but at an angle, leaning towards the bumper.
Pretty optics are neatly integrated around the edges of the embossed front end. Above it are the LED "eyebrows" of the daytime running lights. central part reserved for a false radiator grille with a very large corporate logo in the form of a three-pointed star.

The German company introduced the "new-old" crossover Mercedes-Benz GLE in 2015. He replaced in model range brand model ML-Class.
In fact, only the name was changed and the appearance of the car was slightly refreshed. Structurally, the new Mercedes GLE is the same model that received a new name as a result of the transition to a new nomenclature of names.
Exterior
Appearance mid-size crossover made in the current corporate style of the brand, which debuted at the last. Compared to the pre-reform ML, the new Mercedes GLE began to look more modern, and the body is shaped by smoother lines.
Looking at new model The 2017-2018 Mercedes GLE is strictly in front, it seems that its “face” is one continuous huge air intake covered with a mesh with a sporty texture, and the rest of the decor has already been applied on top.
The main radiator grille is made in the traditional trapezoidal shape and is covered with the same mesh, on top of which are attached two interconnected chrome-plated horizontal ribs with a partially hollow center and a huge logo in the center.
Along the edges are modern LED headlights with "double eyes" under the frowning "eyebrows" of LED DRLs. Below is another lattice, but already wider. And along the edges in the lower part are two air intakes with one chrome-plated horizontal separator rib.
When looking at the car from the side, the traditional premium Mercedes-Benz profile is immediately visible. It is expressed in a protruding hood, a hidden rear pillar that creates the effect of an overhanging roof, a rather rich body relief that provides beautiful game light on expensive enamel when exposed to light. And big wheels with a spectacular design discs, tightly filling the holes in the wheel arches.
The stern of the new Mercedes GLE 2017 is similarly recognizable, thanks to the pattern of the rear lights repeating other models (not just crossovers). We have a spoiler protruding in the upper part with a built-in horizontal LED stoplight bar.
The doors are quite large and taper at the bottom, forming a trapezoid. At the bottom along the edges are decorative rectangular exhaust tips.
Salon
Looking into the interior of the Mercedes-Benz GLE 2017, you immediately understand that you are dealing with a premium model, and this can be guessed not only by the logo in the form of a three-pointed star on the steering wheel.
Wood inserts, metal trim, leather - everything is in place and made very high quality. But on the other hand, the interior of the GLE does not look "Mercedes" luxurious. There is a lot of plastic in the cockpit, albeit soft, but, nevertheless, we are dealing with a very expensive car.
In front of the driver there is a leather-wooden, or leather-flattened, depending on the version, 3-spoke steering wheel with two blocks of buttons on the spokes on the left and right. Behind him is a combination of instruments, made according to the traditional modern models scheme - two analog wells of a speedometer and a tachometer, and between them an information display.
The main difference between the new Mercedes GLE 2017-2018 and the ML in the interior was the engine start button and the large screen of the tablet-type multimedia system, towering above the center console surrounded by ventilation deflectors. Below is the control box. various systems car, and below them is the climate control area.
In terms of the comfort of landing the car, there are practically no questions. It is possible that those sitting in the front seats will not be entirely comfortable with an active “serpentine” ride, but this is probably already nit-picking. Passengers located on the back sofa will be spacious in all directions, and also, the flat floor is especially pleasing.
