How far does the Mercedes GLE hybrid travel on electric power?
Mercedes claims up to 66 miles and we saw 60 miles in a week’s worth of driving and plugging in, which is more than enough for the daily commute.
Does the Mercedes GLE come as an electric model?
No, it’s a plug-in hybrid. Mercedes’ pure-electric models have an EQ in their name (like the EQC SUV and EQA crossover) but there will be an EQ SUV of a similar size to the GLE in the next five-or-so years.
How long does it take to charge a GLE hybrid?
A full charge from a 7kW home wallbox will take five hours to replenish the car’s battery or if you connect to a 50kW fast charger then an 80% top-up will take just 20 minutes. A charge from a domestic socket with a three-pin cable will take over 11 hours.
