Mercedes-Benz Korea is set to begin sales of the “Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC Online Special,” featuring a unique and luxurious interior and exterior color combination, starting from the 20th, exclusively through the Mercedes-Benz store, with only 39 units available.

The GLE 450 4MATIC Online Special is an online limited edition of the fourth-generation facelift model, the New GLE, which began domestic deliveries last month. This model adds special features such as newly introduced interior and exterior colors, external design options, and practical comfort features through the facelift.

This September Online Special model is offered in two color options that were introduced for the first time through the facelift. The “Manufaktur Alpine Gray Solid” model emphasizes luxurious sportiness with a two-tone color scheme of Catalana Beige and Black applied to the interior, providing a classic yet luxurious ambiance. The “Sodalite Blue” model exudes calm sophistication with a clean and spacious feel, featuring a Makkiato Beige and Black interior. Each model will be available in limited quantities of 20 and 19 units, respectively.

Both models of the GLE 450 4MATIC Online Special come standard with the Night Package. The radiator grille, louvers, AMG front apron and bumper air intakes, side mirror housings, window and beltline trim strips, roof rails, AMG rear apron, and diffuser are all finished in black, maximizing the sportiness of the SUV. Additionally, the new 21-inch AMG 5 Twin Spoke lightweight alloy wheels introduced in this facelift model add dynamism.

Inside, the model features “Manufaktur High Gloss Black Flowing Line Piano Lacquer” trim. This trim is an interior design element previously showcased in the Mercedes-Maybach GLS, featuring a high-gloss black color with white accents, enhancing the luxurious interior ambiance.

Moreover, the rear seats are equipped with “Rear Seat Power Side Window Sunblinds” for added convenience. These blinds can be easily operated via a switch on the door panel, and lowering the blinds reduces indoor brightness, creating a cozier atmosphere, making it particularly appealing for families.

Killian Tellen, Vice President in charge of products, marketing, and digital business at Mercedes-Benz Korea, stated, “The New GLE epitomizes luxury SUV with its high product value across various dimensions, including luxury and stable driving performance. The online special model of the GLE features newly introduced luxurious interior and exterior color combinations from the facelift and carries forward interior elements from higher models, enhancing its luxurious nature. With added convenience features for rear seat passengers, we expect it to significantly strengthen its appeal to customers.”

The New GLE has undergone meticulous upgrades in design, performance, advanced technology, and comfort features, perfectly embodying the luxury mid-size SUV segment. Furthermore, it offers a diverse lineup with the uniquely styled “New GLE Coupe” and the high-performance variant “New Mercedes-AMG GLE 53.”

The entire lineup of the New GLE is equipped with a plethora of advanced safety and convenience features, including the latest Driving Assistance Package Plus from Mercedes-Benz, the second-generation MBUX infotainment system with the new telematics NTG7, Off-road drive mode, a transparent hood for securing visibility below the front end integrated with the 360-degree camera in off-road mode, and Energizing Package to enhance driving pleasure by managing indoor temperature, lighting, music, etc., along with Bolster® surround sound system with Dolby Atmos sound technology, and Winter Package including heated steering wheels and heated windscreen washer systems.
