These spray the cleaning fluid onto the windscreen right in front of the heated wiper blades, exactly where it is needed.

The heated front windscreen quickly and comfortably ensures clear vision on cold days – conveniently at the touch of a button and without any annoying windscreen scraping. The invisible heating system integrated in the windscreen quickly thaws the ice so that it can easily be removed with the windscreen wipers, and prevents condensation.

MBUX as standard: The big experience on the interior

The command “Hey Mercedes” launches the customised service that MBUX provides. Personal profiles, forecast functions as well as a WiFi hotspot completely redefine the term digital networking. As standard are the following:

  • The Widescreen Cockpit with flexible display options: The desired content can be positioned individually and the host of functions controlled intuitively thanks to touch technology. The hard-disc navigation with Live Traffic and Car-to-X Communication are always on-board (whereby networked vehicles exchange safety-relevant data).
  • The Navigation Services: The vehicle answers questions on your journey, tells you current fuel prices at your destination, the number of available parking spaces or the current weather.
  • The Vehicle Set-up App: Settings can be changed and information called up remotely on the smartphone. This includes sending addresses to the navigation system or locking the doors.
  • Smartphone Integration: The mobile phone links up with the media system via Apple® CarPlay® and Android Auto®. This allows direct access to the smartphone’s most important applications. You can also use apps from third-party service providers such as Spotify quickly and easily.
  • Vehicle Monitoring: If required, the smartphone allows you to see where the vehicle is located at any time and you can even determine what area the vehicle is allowed to enter. You will also immediately receive information on undesired movements.
  • The Mercedes-Benz Emergency Call System (with an unlimited term): Via a communications module with its own sim card, an emergency call is initiated when an accident is detected, and this can reduce the time it takes for the emergency services to arrive. The emergency call can also be initiated manually to organise help.
  • The communications module (LTE) for the use of Mercedes me connect services (with an unlimited term): It connects the vehicle with the internet. Two mobile phone antennas and an LTE-compatible SIM card ensure a fast connection.

The Burmester® surround sound system ensures exceptional sound with 13 loud speakers and a total system output of 590 W. The Burmester® high-end 3D surround sound system with 25 speakers and a total system output of 1,590 W offers an even better sound experience. Here the loudspeakers in the roof liner compose a three-dimensional sound.

The new Mercedes-Benz GLE is not only exceptionally dynamic and more comfortable on the road, it is also more competent off the beaten track than ever before. Its exterior design exudes strength and charisma and at the same time sets a new aerodynamic best value in its segment with a cw value from 0.29. The interior is even more spacious, the second row of seats is electrically adjustable as an option and a third seat row is available on request. And the GLE will be full of innovations at launch. The new Mercedes-Benz GLE will be launched with two engine line-ups and will be delivered from the beginning of 2019.
