All variants are equipped with a 4-liter AMG V8 biturbo engine, which for the first time works with an EQ Boost starter-alternator. It provides an additional 16 kW (22 hp) and 250 Nm of torque for a short period of time, and feeds the 48 V on-board electrical system with hybrid functions that optimize driving dynamics and increase efficiency. Another novelty in the Polish offer of Mercedes-Benz SUVs is the GLE 350 de Coupé with plug-in hybrid drive.
