Mercedes-Benz GLE
Last year, the GLE midsize SUV was totally updated, gaining a new style and a whack of new technology. This big vehicle comes in two styles: the regular GLE and the GLE Coupe that, thanks to the contour of its roof, has part of its cargo space and rear-seat headroom amputated for the sake of design. There's a wide selection of engines, from a frugal diesel to a V8 twin-turbo in the AMG GLE 63 S.
