It’s quite surprising just how quickly the performance SUV segment has expanded. Mercedes-AMG has been at this lark for a little while and includes several performance SUVs within its own stable. The GLE63 S, which we’re looking at today, acts as the midway point in the line-up, sitting between the smaller GLC63 and the larger GLS63. The question is, does it deliver an all-encompassing experience?

Some of the fundamentals of the GLE63 remain unchanged for this latest version. We’ve still got a bruising V8 engine, an opulent cabin brimmed with features and plenty of interior space.
