Tech Features of the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350

The Mercedes-Benz lineup includes some of the finest cars and SUVs available anywhere, delivering remarkable performance and gorgeous interiors designed to surround you with every last bit of luxury you could ask for. When looking for a Mercedes-Benz GLE for sale, it is easy to get so hung up on the looks and precise performance of this midsize SUV that you overlook some of the impressive tech features that are on offer. We think this is a mistake, however, because these kinds of features enhance your drive each day, and missing out on something when shopping could result in some big regrets down the road. So let's take a look at the standard and available tech features in the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 SUV and get a sense of what you should look for and make sure you drive away with it. 

Standard Tech: The Impressive Engine

Kicking things off, let's have a look at the standard features for the GLE 350, and then we'll dig into options you can choose if you want to take things to the next level. Although we wouldn't typically think of the engine as a piece of tech for most vehicles, the one you'll find in this SUV is so good we just had to mention it. The GLE 350 is powered by a 2.0L I-4 turbo engine with a mild hybrid system, which delivers 255 hp and comes paired with a 9G-Tronic 9-speed automatic transmission. This beauty lets the 350 go from 0 to 60 mph in just 6.9 seconds and allows it to tow up to 7,700 lbs behind it, making this the perfect SUV for a wide range of lifestyles and activities. It means you can enjoy your time during your commute each day, and make the most of your days off no matter what kinds of things you enjoy.

Standard Tech: Large Displays to Enjoy

Moving on now to more traditional tech features, let's take a look at what you'll get inside the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 when you go with the standard setup. Up front, you'll find a pair of gorgeous displays that look absolutely stunning: a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster for you as the driver and a second 12.3-inch portrait-oriented multimedia display in the center, which is canted toward the driver seat. These two screens look amazing and make it easy to keep track of data about your vehicle, glance at navigation information, and listen to your favorite music or podcast while driving.

For the 2025 model year, you get to enjoy the latest Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) infotainment software that is easy to use and incredibly functional. This includes support for wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a hands-free Bluetooth interface with Bluetooth audio streaming. You also get wireless charging with NFC pairing to keep compatible devices charged and even touch controls on the steering wheel so you can control the MBUX system without ever taking your hands off the wheel.

Standard Tech: Convenience and Comfort Features

Real luxury, for many of us, is all about being comfortable and things being simple and hassle-free, particularly when we're driving. That's why we love how loaded the GLE 350 is when it comes to convenience and comfort features for you to enjoy on the road. Every model comes with power front seats with memory functionality so it's easy to share your SUV with someone else (though you'll be tempted to keep it all to yourself), plus heated front seats and dual-zone automatic climate control to stay comfy in all kinds of weather. The GLE 350 comes with MB-Tex upholstery that looks and feels amazing, plus a KEYLESS-GO system that makes it easy to get in and hit the road-great for Monday mornings-and a power liftgate for convenient loading and unloading of your SUV.

Standard Tech: Remarkable Driver Assistance Systems

Few pieces of technology are as important to us as safety tech designed to ensure you and your loved ones stay safe on the road. That's why we're so happy to see the standard safety features that Mercedes-Benz has packed into the GLE 350, which will help protect you and your passengers. Every model comes with the PRE-SAFE system that can detect a potential collision and react by tightening seat belts, plus closing windows and the sunroof to help ensure everyone in your vehicle is secure. You get Active Brake Assist to help you avoid a potential collision, Blind Spot Assist with Exit Warning Assist for when you're getting out of your vehicle, a Surround View System for low-speed maneuvering, and much more. All of this comes together to make the GLE 350 an incredibly safe and secure choice. 

Available Tech: Incredible Sound and Infotainment Options

Although the standard tech features on the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 are already impressive, there are options available to let you go even further. For example, the available Dolby Atmos system with Sound Personalization creates a three-dimensional sound field within your vehicle for richer, more enveloping audio quality that is absolutely stunning. Combine that with the available Burmester Surround sound system with 13 high-quality speakers including a pair of FrontBass subwoofers and a 590-watt amplifier, and you have an audio experience with exquisite sound unsurpassed by anything else we've heard. When you get inside a GLE 350 with this sound system and see the beautifully crafted metal speaker grilles, you'll immediately know you're in for something special.

Available Tech: Enhanced Comfort and Convenience

The standard convenience features in the GLE 350 are great, but you can take things even further with options like a head-up display that projects information onto your windshield, so you can keep track of things like your driving speed, navigation instructions, and more while keeping your eyes on the road. You can take comfort even further too, with available options like ventilated front seats with rapid heating and even heated armrests and upper door panels up front. The available multi-contour front seats with massage functionality are a favorite of ours, along with the available four-zone climate control system that ensures everyone inside your vehicle is as comfortable as possible. With Nappa leather upholstery and even heated second-row seats offered, you can transform the interior of your SUV into an oasis you'll never want to leave.

Available Tech: Taking Safety to the Next Level

As far as we're concerned, you can never have too many features designed to help protect you on the road. Mercedes-Benz seems to agree, and available options for the GLE 350 include DISTRONIC cruise control with Active Distance Assist, which adapts the speed of your vehicle to the flow of traffic around you, even when it comes to a full stop. You can get Active and Evasive Steering Assist systems, an Active Blind Spot Assist and Active Lane Keeping Assist systems, and even Trailer Stability and Maneuvering Assist systems to enhance your safety while towing. All of these options come together to make the GLE 350 an incredibly safe and secure choice.
