In simple terms, leasing is the single most cost-effective and hassle free method of driving a brand-new car, and with Select Car Leasing you can be sure that you are in safe hands.
The GLE is a large Mercedes-Benz SUV, and with that comes a number of very desirable features. You get a badge with more than a century of history behind it, as well as a choice of petrol, diesel or plug-in hybrid power. The GLE features a beautiful, high-tech interior packed with features, and it has space for seven to travel in luxurious comfort. On top of that, it’s available in two body styles: the ultra-practical GLE, or the more stylish GLE Coupe.
The GLE is a large, premium car with plenty of trim levels and engine choices, so the leasing rates can vary quite a bit. Thankfully though, because of Select Car Leasing’s market-leading industry links, we can offer you the most competitive leasing rates and special offers in the country. Why not check the full list of leasing deals on the Mercedes GLE, and see which one best suits your requirements and budget?
The GLE’s main features, aside from the fact that it’s a Mercedes and therefore very desirable, are its passenger-carrying capabilities, it’s fantastic interior and the quality of its technology. On top of that, it has a wide choice of engines, including a mega-efficient diesel plug-in hybrid model, with a very impressive range of up to 54 miles on electric power alone. There’s also a pair of mega-powerful GLEs from Mercedes’ tuning arm, AMG. The GLE Coupe model offers five seats rather than seven, but has a more rakish, sports-car-like silhouette to compensate.
The GLE was reviewed and tested by independent safety organisation Euro NCAP in 2019 and was given the maximum five-star score, with great marks in adult and child safety tests. All models come with just about every available safety system as standard, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist and a blind-spot warning system. When it comes to practicality, the regular GLE is the model to go for if you want to carry more than five people, as it has an extra row of two seats in the back. Having them in place can compromise boot space, but you can fold them into the floor when not in use. With them stowed away, boot space is huge. The GLE Coupe has a touch less headroom in the back but it’s still very roomy, and the boot is big too, without the extra seats to get in the way.
Once you’ve decided which power option you want, and whether you fancy the regular car of the Coupe model, there are three trim choices to choose from. All are based on the sporty-looking AMG Line model, which comes as standard with big 20-inch wheels, keyless entry and start, LED headlights and front and rear parking sensors. AMG Line Premium adds bigger wheels, four-zone air conditioning, while AMG Line Premium Plus adds even bigger wheels, a panoramic glass sunroof, and Airmatic air suspension for a more cushioned ride. The powerful AMG GLE 53 comes in Premium or Premium Plus trims, while the top-spec AMG GLE 63 comes in a single, fully-loaded model.
Recently took delivery of a brand new BMW which was ordered through Select Car Leasing and from start to finish I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the service I received. Andy regularly kept me informed with updates on the built process of my car and always provided me with answers to any of my questions. Entire process was slick and efficient, and would definitely order through them again. Fantastic!
Select provided a quick and efficient service which was trouble-free. I would like to say a big thank you to Nick Jenkins for sourcing my vehicle so quickly i would definitely recommend.
The agent who has and is looking after my case is very helpful and friendly. He is easy to get hold of and is very professional
