GLE Coupe is Merc's eighth SUV: New BMW X6 rival joins Mercedes' SUV line-up as a rakish-looking sporty five-seater

摘要

Mercedes-Benz has extended its SUV portfolio with a second generation of the GLE Coupe. Revealed ahead of its public debut at the Frankfurt motor show next month, the BMW X6 rival will arrive in dealerships in spring 2020. The newcomer raises the number of Mercedes SUV models to eight, indicating the significance to the brand of a sector that accounts for a third of its global sales. The GLE Coupe joins an ever-growing segment of style-focused variants of traditional high-riding models and can also count the Porsche Cayenne Coupe, Audi 08 and Range Rover Velar as competitors.
