Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Reimagined

The dual personalities of the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 Coupe make it even more desirable

With more than 20,000 units sold in the country, the GLE constitutes around 15 per cent of the sales for Mercedes-Benz India. After all, we Indians have a special soft spot for SUVs, and the GLE delivers it all: luxury, style, and above all, practicality. Adding the element of performance to it is the AMG tuned GLE 53 Coupe, a powerful and attractive offering that packs some serious driving power.

Refreshed for 2024, the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 Coupe strikes a remarkable balance between the robustness of an SUV and the sleek elegance of a coupe. The iconic Pan-Americana grille commands attention at the forefront, bordered by sharp LED headlights and well-crafted air intakes that subtly suggest there’s more to this vehicle than meets the eye. The car’s flowing lines and broad haunches reinforce its dynamic stance, highlighting its sporty character. But what really catches the eye is the sloping rear roof and the subtly uplifted tail that lends it a sporty and aerodynamic edge.
