Mercedes Benz GLE launched at Rs 58.90 lakh

Mercedes-Benz has launched the updated ML-Class at a starting price of Rs 58.90 lakh for the 250d, ex-showroom Delhi. the top-spec 350d has been priced at Rs 69.90 lakh ex-showroom Delhi.

On the exterior front, the GLE features a new set of headlamps and a larger more angular grille than before. It now looks much like the new C- and S-Class when viewed up front.

The grille with its twin slat design and centrally mounted three-pointed-star though still is reminiscent of the older ML’s striking design elements.

The trademark angular C-pillar and large tail lamps still remain although the tail lamps have been reworked to make them look more modern and up to date.

The GLE also gets LED headlamps for the first time further improving its appeal.

The interior gets updated too with an even larger screen than before which is without a doubt the centre of attraction.

The air vents too have been encased with a classy silver surround, which in turn is set into the gloss black dashboard itself.

On the mechanical front, the GLE in India will be available with a choice of two diesel engines: the GLE 250d and the GLE 350d.

The GLE 250d gets an output of 204PS of peak power and 500Nm of torque while the GLE 350d makes 258PS of peak power and 620Nm of peak torque.
