Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupé (C167) (C167)

Lower and wider than the GLE it is based on, and shorter between the axles — the coupé version, sharpened rather than merely restyled.

Revealed in August 2019, the C167 launched with the M256 straight-six in the GLE 450 and in the AMG GLE 53 and 63 S, with OM656 diesels for Europe, and offers AMG RIDE CONTROL+ air suspension and rear-axle steering.

It is built at Tuscaloosa alongside the V167.
