GLE 53 and the Unexpected Design! Mr AMG First Look!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- First AMG of the new GLE family!! And that is the GLE63... wait no, GLE53..! It’s that AMG grill it’s so confusing!!
This is the new GLE 53 4matic+, and rather look at it in Geneva, in typical RBR style we are borrowing it! This GLE AMG is a part hybrid in-line 6 turbo, just like the E53 and CLS53 we tested recently! We will look briefly at the engine but I know what you’re thinking and you’re right, this looks like the 63 car!
This AMG panamericana grille till now used to be reserved only for full 63 AMGs like the new G63, or for the AMG GT family cars. And then we had entry level AMG cars like the 35, 43 and 53 cars all with the twin blade classic grille. Two faces to differentiate two power levels. Now that’s all changed and the GLE53 has the Panamericana grille! I will explore the reasoning behind this as well as what it means for the future of AMG design.
As mentioned, it’s the usual 53 flavour of in line 6 petrol engine with 435 520nm, and fully variable power in the AMG 4matic+ all wheel drive system and between that and the 9-speed gear box is your hybrid power: the EQ Boost starter generator adding + 22hp and 250nm. The GLE53 0-60 is only 5.3 seconds.
That system also charges the 48v system of the car, a system that allows more current and thus clever new systems. Mainly the new AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL air suspension, based on AMG Ride control+. But best of all, GLE 53 also gets the AMG performance exhaust system!
But will the GLE63S be different enough? What else has changed vs the GLE 450?
In this first look I explore:
The GLE53 and the AMG grille
Future of AMG exterior design
The AMG GLB 35
Exterior Design
The Hybrid Powertrain
The New GLE63 S
Interior Design
AMG MBUX system

Can you make some more Buttons to press? - I feel so left out of the Giveaway Challenge :-D
Marc Nobel you’re entered don’t worry 😉
Subbed and belled... now what haha.... mind you postage to me I can certainly pay for ;)
I'm liking the direction they're taking... though I understand the argument for and against the grille. Though I think there really needs to be some distinction inside and out so people know its a 53 or a 63 with out having to rely on the badge.
Done.
One of the biggest mysteries on UA-cam is how this guy only has 81k subs
I'm just seeing your comment and he has 181k subs now... What dark magic is this? Lol
Isaac Oluwade still not enough
@@Mucgamon191 well, 4 months later, he has 222k subs 👍🏼
@@lechatnoir7001 I’m still not happy.. his level of editing, professionalism and the content as a whole is something you’d expect from a car channel with a million plus subscribers. (Fact)
@@Mucgamon191 yep you’re not false my friend
new approach of showing cars, nobody done it yet on youtube, using CG to apply on your own driveway. The angle of the car makes it look so real. Great Job!!
My favorite amgs are gle 53 amg and gt63s
I'm in shock that you don't have 10mil subs, hands down best car channel on UA-cam. Thank you for your great work my brother, keep these videos coming. Cheers from NYC
Love your videos man! You are defo underrated in this youtube space!
Top Notch content, your presentation and editing skills have upped the online car review game. Keep them coming!
when you're sat in the car in that showroom, you look like a kid in a toy shop 😆 gotta love it!!! 👍
Dear Lord, Mercedes is knocking everything ouy of the park!!! That AMG GT is GORGEOUS!!! I may need to change my avatar!
You aren’t a true Beamer boii🌚
@@jaydendk4988 guess not! 🤣
Wow that GLE63S render looks superb. It's going to be a monster! And with that 4.0l engine, I have no doubt it will feel much more alive than the previous gen with the 5.5l engine.
It will do 0-60 in 3.6 sec
Your mechanic will love you too since he will make lots if money with you 😂😂
I still think the Panamericana grille would have been better kept for the future GLE63S model. Although I guess it does make sense, seeing how the GT43 and GT53 have the same grille (they need to have a consistent design).
See what I say in the video ;)
@@RemoveBeforeRace I did watch, awesome video as always! Are you going to be covering the GTR Roadster, because my God does that car look stunning.... especially with that interior spec, wide ass rear section and fixed wing..... I'm in love.
@@DanielSadjadian get a life...
I've to admit the Mercedes SUVs look much much better than anything BMW is bringing on the market at the moment...
Dude, the bmw x7 looks better than the new gls for sure..
All Mercedes cars particularly SUVs look like blobs
@@mukhethwanemahunguni3597 no, they look luxurier
The most underrated car reviewer on UA-cam. Man, your reviews are a class apart!
Dude, you have a unique way of reviewing cars. 👍🏽
Saw this in a matte finish yesterday. Wow.. The real thing looks like an absolute gem. I own a BMW coupe which I really love but this car is on my shopping list
I'd say this car deserves the grille, because its powerful enough. 467 BHP is by no means a weak figure for a car.
Personally I've seen it in Geneva, my opinion is if they allowed panamericana grill option on GT43/53 then it's logical that they want to boost GLE53 with panamericana, but A35 could also have panamericana 😎🤣 GLE63 would have wider bumper and maybe wider front wheel arches. Cool animation effects Raz, must be a lot of work to make them look realistic 👍🏼
Yeah it's design consistency which does make sense I guess. So long as the 63 models get those lovely large air intakes, massive quad tail pipes, etc...
I never know if the cars are actually on your driveway or not. Some videos you have a real car, some it's edited. Regardless, good job on the edits.
Nice video 👍🏽 very viewer friendly I subscribed
The new Gle interior had some materials that weren't what I expected at all in something like this. Particularly in the centre console
Hey Raziz! I love your videos and the effort you put into everything. Keep up the good work! Always looking forward to your next video! Love from a BMW driver :)
You should be on AMG's payroll. Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG, in particular, may as well be the most exciting car brands right now, as they're going through so much positive change. However, to an average observer, they can get a little complicated and confusing, and unless you're in love with the industry as some of us, you can easily get lost. Thank goodness for Raz to help clarify the confusion.
I’m just not that happy that all these lower trim amg models get all the technologies and stuffs like same steering wheel etc. For me it feels like all the models looks similar. 53 and 45s are getting the same grill with my s63. Spending over 200k and I want it to differentiate itself from the others.
Hold on...so his thumbnail shows the car in his drive way but its actually a CGI car and he just reviews the car during one of the days of a car show?
Tiff Nidell yes it’s so weird man
I am a Mercedes fan and I approve this channel
Wow you finally uploaded... I wanted to watch this during my cardio workout and kept refreshing and then of course you upload it after I'm done 😭😭
Paul Nike oh snap 😂
I swear your intro is so hype 😂😂😂 keep it up Raz !
Hubert Ouellet haha I know right?! 😂
@@RemoveBeforeRace For sure ! Hey I was wondering what your thoughts were on the GLB regarding which segment it covers and on its looks obv. Keep up the content, you really have the most in-depth reviews out there :) !
It's difficult to take because they only just introduced the 53 series AMGs recently. They are changing their design language too quickly. Now they are saying for example, a potential facelift E43/E53 will have the same grille as an E63? The AMG GT family are the flagship AMGs hence I appreciate how it made sense for their whole line-up to have the Panamerica Grille
A Singh it’s very confusing honestly
Sound like AMG mb that I know... Most people can tell the different.
I like the new AMG grill in the 53 series. If your paying extra for an AMG, you should get the panamericana grill. Otherwise, one may feel a bit cheated. You still have the front air intakes, wheels and rear exhaust differentiating the 53 & 63 series.
Dude how is the editing done? I wish to park a Chiron on my driveway the same way too. Please help. :)
+1, I don't like fake Mercedes cars but I like your reviews with the special effects.
Loving the visuals
Keep it up 👍🏽
I’m really torn between the 2021 GLE 580 and the 2021 AMG GLE 53. The 580 has more power and torque. The AMG has less power and torque, but the AMG exhaust, and AMG tuned suspension and steering. The prices are almost identical. Do you have an opinion on which model you would prefer? Thanks.
A painful reminder is when a GLE63 roars passed you and in that moment youll be reminded where that grill really belongs
Thato Mosifane you would barely notice the difference though if both cars stood next to each other
Haha
I am writing ryt now there comes a time when looks aren't everything my friend
What a great review and superb visual effect! I really thought the car was on your driveway. Very informative and easy to listen to review. Thanks. You earned yourself a sub and a like.
Great video as always , waiting for the next one
great videos like always
Can’t wait for the GLS 🙏
Don't think it's the finalized design and it's lacking the front engine bonnet bulge and vent. Needs the salami cut squarer exhaust at back because the AMG exhaust doesn't look bad ass enough. Personally feel front spotlights below grill has always been spectacular. Output is ok fast torqued enough great suspension I am a big fan of the GLE 550 and look forward to the design of the future the ask your car a command is great. There's a lot of things to like. Love the shape and aerodynamics of the handling of this suv.
Another great video to watch!!!
Great vid as always.
I'm glad we elitists can have videos which can help us tell the difference between a 53 and a 63. It helps us seem less stupid over cocktails.
Once again a great video about the otstanding Mercedes GLE 53AMG! Thank you! Both, the car and you are the best!
Perfect explanation. Thanks, for always delivering top notch content. Keep going 👌👌👌
GermanCitizen son ming hoooooooo
In my eyes this is the best looking suv at the moment. Look forward for the real review. One fun or rather sad-fact is that in Germany there is no sports exhaust allowed anymore. Germans are killing their car industry by themselves... Lol
The tunes bring me back to the NBA 🤔 😳
lmao at the DBZ teleportation SFX
As usual great stuff. Impressive edit skills. Thanks.
This Mercedes is my next car,,, Looking good Mr / /// AMG
So here are my 2 cents no one asked for. Changes are being rolled out progressively and probably not all the changes are planned much in advance. See for instance the AMG 450 badging, it lasted for a really short period of time before being changed into AMG 43! Probably this came after hearing the customers! Another example is the Matrix grill that is still being used in some E53. So 53s are now being sold with the matrix, dual blade and panamericana grille. It is indeed confusing and it seems that the styling department didn't have a plan with the different AMG lines of engines. Hopefully they have now sorted this out and they will only keep the dual blade and the Panamericana grille.
Awesome content and info as always bro, proper channel!
Yo man, signed for your Chanel today..going to buy GLE 2020 as soon as it comes out, waiting for same great review from you!!
I would imagine there is a new design language coming to range-topping AMGs in the future. Like the twin-blade, this allows them to demote the "old" panamericana to lower trims, while boosting sales of these vehicles in the meantime as they appear to punch higher than their pricetags. AMG will differentiate their mega-expensive top trims from their lower trims/drivetrains. Dont worry.
200 000$ is not "mega-expensive" enough...? : |
Well done Raz! I’m loving the AMG GLE 53 I’ve got to get one. It’s perfect and what I’m looking for, will get me out my E Class I to this happily.
Amazing video once again, deserve more subscribers!
you should have at least 1mil subs you have the best videos on youtube
SC&DC Sports cars and diecast Channel thank you!!
Great video. Like we used to on this amazing channel
Very clever video, the grill issue? I think it's the solution.
This thing is a BEAST!
With this approach, Merc is going sportier look across the entire range.
*TELL ABOUT YOURSELF.* People seem to really like you, it makes sense to give them some context now as it is not only about cars any more.
Mercedes really upped its game with this new GLE the X5 is great but this is truly amazing, can't wait for driving impressions.
Love your videos
You deserve at least 10m subscribers!
Voughn Too kind! These comments makes it worth it
The best car reviewer on you tube by far
Steve Daire Thanks man!!!
This has a rather nice looking rear side. Much better than the new X5 imho.
The twin-blade design makes it look cheaper, they should just use this or the one that looks like sparkles :o
19:00 Dude...
Over 5 weeks ago you said "Winner announced in 2 weeks" and that was the same price, but the "competition" was for reaching 75k on UA-cam.
Not cool playing us like that man.
Good video though, I really liked it, and I'm looking forward to the Coupe models.
It's scam of course
It’s a phone charger chill lol
It’s not about the price (i have like 5 powerbanks) but it’s about the principles and the trust.
Fabulous!!!
Will a GLE 63 come later this year or at the beginning of next year? Or is this the final model of the GLE
It makes perfect sense for all Mercedes-AMG cars to have the panamericana grille. There should be a clear visual differentiation between Mercedes and Mercedes-AMG vehicles otherwise what's the point!? Any car made by AMG should be respected as an AMG, isn't that the point also!?
Subscribed and notifications on 👌👌👍
I LOVE IT!! i want the GLE63 so bad :((
All of these sub AMG models, are making the AMG brand feel less special...
I think its brillant. AMG is expanded their brand to a wider range of people. The 63s are just a potent and savage as ever but now AMG is appealing to a larger share of the Market.
What AMG do you drive?
@Gerry Shaw I when this content was posted I owned, the Cls63 2016
Well done....once again!!🤘🏾
1:45 That G63 is wicked.
Brilliant review. Thank you.
Loving your special effects
I just found your channel and I can safely say that I am liking what I see. I love the visual representation that is shown when you describe what features the car have, it makes me properly understand what is being said. I am always very impressed of how much technology goes into these cars. It really is mind blowing and fascinating. I just subscribed to you. Glad I found you, your channel is entertaining and very informative.
insane editing how is the channel uder 100k subs?!
if i ever win the lottery this is the first and last car i would buy..
I know you'll be first on it RBR and I CANNOT WAIT but are we likely to see the AMG A45s within weeks? Months?
I'm told 'very soon' :)
It will most likely be announced in the New York auto show, together with the Coupe models of GLC and maybe the GLE.
the editing always amazes me
One thing I miss from all of your reviews is the key, such an important element of a good car! :) awesomse videos anyway
One Question: What do you think in detail about the NVIDIA Mercedes Infotainment System and do you have a "learning/ai" experience with one of your cars already ?
Ahhhh Raz am already subscribed and already had that notification bell smashed bud!😂 Love the content... Heading to that 100k subs! Good luck 🔥🔥💯
Sabfit4life haha thanks my friend!!
Bro ya swag is thru the roof much respect...please do a video on the all new Alpina B7...Thanks in advance
I love the Goku move lol
15:29 who the hell is tracking a 3000+ kilo suv? 😂
You had me with that cool intro
Another great vid! My M5 Comp is on order so very much looking forward to hearing your opinion of it!
I would rather get a panamera hybrid however this car is quite sexy
But hey there's a car for everyone
I absolutely hate SUVs, but god damn it, Mercedes-Benz is killing it with their entire SUV range. It’s so weird, but I find them so desirable - and I hate SUVs!!! Weird.
Any news on the launch date for the coupe
Im only here for the instant transmission sound effect
Will the cls 53 amg have a panamericana Grille to?
When will this and the entry level GT 4 doors (GT53/GT43) release? I really want to get one for the summer but I’m not sure when they release.. anyone know?
I am in rush to get a new car when is the 63 coming ???!
Cayenne blows it away performance wise and everything else! You'll see a ton of mom's and old lady's with hats driving them! See them everywhere in my neighborhood. Porsche is special and exclusive!
how u changing the cars so fast??? thats a miracle
