最近谍照记者拍到了2019款奔驰GLE内装照片，虽然方向盘中间的奔驰车标被胶布粘上了，但仍能看出这是奔驰的三叉星标志。与其他奔驰车型一样，GLE也采用了数字仪表群和信息娱乐系统显示屏。中控台还集成了触控板。显示屏两侧是梯形空调出风口，中控台还有四个出风口。多功能方向盘采用了富有吸引力的金属按键。早期谍照显示，显示屏已经被激活。虽然外观是未来主义风格，但内部仪表群仍保留了传统的圆形，中间是传统的数据显示屏。在进化到数字显示后，转速表和速度表依旧看起来是老样子。下一代GLE级车型只有少数东西是和老款车共享的。新车采用了奔驰新研发的ModularHighArchitecture平台打造，车身长增加了80毫米。低端版本采用普通钢制弹簧，但可选装空气悬挂。奔驰工程师利用升级主动车身控制系统来提升车辆应对崎岖路面的能力。该系统的
Off-RoadPlus设置可以让车辆行驶高度提升50毫米。新一代GLE将可搭载多种引擎，其中GLE450搭载奔驰新的3.0升直列六缸涡轮引擎和电机，搭配九速自动变速器和全驱系统。可选装双速传动箱以提升越野性能。未来还将推出更高性能的AMG版本。预计2019款GLE将于今年晚些时候发布。
2019 Mercedes GLE Interior Revealed In Spy Shots
New spy photos from Car New China provide another good look inside the next-gen GLE-Class. The test mule is practically uncamouflaged other than some duct tape over the company logo in the center of the steering wheel.
Like the latest and future slate of Mercedes models, the GLE-Class gets an expansive, tablet-like housing that combines the digital instrument cluster and infotainment duties. The touchpad for controlling it is on the center console. Trapezoidal HVAC vents flank the display, and four squarish vents are on the center stack. A multi-function steering wheel features attractive, metallic buttons. Earlier spy photos showed what the screen looked like when it was activated. Despite the futuristic appearance, the instruments retain a traditional, circular appearance with additional data in the center. After taking the big step into digital displays, it seems like a waste of the technology to display a speedometer and tachometer that look like the old ones.
The next-gen GLE-Class reportedly only shares a couple bolts with the existing model. The new SUV rides on the Modular High Architecture and is about three inches (80 millimeters) longer than the current one. Lower level trims use regular steel springs, but there is an available air suspension. Mercedes' engineers put a focus on making the GLE more capable on rough terrain by updating the Active Body Control system. An Off-Road Plus setting lifts the suspension by nearly two inches (50 mm).
The GLE will be available with an expansive engine range. Among the choices, there will be the GLE 450 with Mercedes' new combination of a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and an electric motor. It'll come with a nine-speed automatic with all-wheel drive. An optional two-speed transfer case will be for the folks who'll want to take their Mercedes SUV off-road. Hotter AMG variants will come later.
Mercedes already has a teaser campaign for the GLE, so look for the SUV to arrive later in the year.
