Mercedes-Benz introduced the GLE Coupe to establish an entirely new segment merging SUV practicality with coupe aesthetics.
Development began as a styling exercise to differentiate the GLE lineup and attract buyers seeking distinctive luxury utility vehicles.
The C292 GLE Coupe launched in 2015 at the Detroit Auto Show with five engine options and aggressive AMG variants.
Production concluded in 2019 with approximately 450,000 units built globally before the refreshed C167 generation arrived.
