The evolution from the M-Class to the GLE: Mercedes' successful SUV
"Often copied, rarely equalled" - the M-Class founded the premium SUV segment in 1997 and has been one of the world's most successful models ever since. With the launch of the GLE, the number of units produced will exceed the 1.6 million mark", says Ola Källenius, Member of the Board of Management of Daimler AG, Mercedes-Benz Cars.
Often copied - yes it's true the Mercedes M-Class (now GLE) was truly a trendsetter at the time. Only after the success of the M-Class became apparent did BMW follow suit with the X5, VW with the Touareg and Audi with the Q7.
Introduction Mercedes GLE - by now the premium SUV has not only been around for 4 years, but is already in its second product generation. (W166, V167) Furthermore, with the GLE Coupe (C292), Mercedes has created an even sportier and at the same time noble representative in the same segment.
Seldom achieved - especially with the recently introduced new GLE (V167), Mercedes has once again succeeded in creating a real innovation carrier. It is not for nothing that insiders are already talking about the best chassis of all Mercedes models. But Mercedes-Benz is also setting new technical standards with the all-wheel drive system, the assistance systems and the MBUX infotainment system.
High-quality GLE wheels for your Mercedes
SUV wheels are very popular, especially because of their attractive design. However, you may also remember situations where you have taken your GLE for a ride. That's normal, because the SUV segment promises an extraordinarily high level of versatility. Your Mercedes GLE wheels must therefore be able to cope with muddy dirt roads, fast motorway stages and winding country roads. GLE rims and complete wheels are also subject to increased stresses due to the high vehicle weight. For this reason, you should not compromise on either the workmanship or the material of the GLE alloy wheels and should only choose top-quality products.
Original GLE complete wheels for your Mercedes meet the highest quality standards and are subjected to numerous stringent tests before they go on sale. In this way, it can be ensured that the original GLE wheels impress with consistently high driving characteristics and maximum safety in all driving situations. However, the high safety standards do not mean that you have to compromise on design. Despite the high demands placed on SUV rims, Mercedes has succeeded in creating both robust and high-quality and noble rim designs.
