Luxury SUVs like the 2022 Velar and GLE are all about power and strength, and are perfect for taking on any path in your search for adventure. In fact, these two models have a lot in common, but there are some notable differences as well.
Both offer a 3-engine lineup, starting with a standard 2.0L powertrain. If you’re looking for more strength, however, the Velar is the way to go. With its standard 296 lb-ft of torque, compared to only 273 lb-ft in the GLE, you can show other drivers you mean business while behind the wheel.
The Range Rover Velar also comes standardly outfitted with an advanced all-wheel-drive system, which is ideal for making your mark both on and off the pavement. If you need extra traction, capability, and control in the Mercedes-Benz model, you’ll have to opt for a higher trim level.
The Range Rover Velar and Mercedes-Benz GLE wouldn’t be luxury vehicles without a suite of progressive technologies. Luckily, the two deliver.
In each model, the following standard and available features will surely keep you connected and entertained:
The Range Rover Velar, however, makes it easy to stay in touch and in the know with three dashboard displays—two 10-inch multimedia touchscreens and a 12.3-inch Interactive Driving Display. While the GLE does come with a similar 12.3-inch cluster display, it offers just one touchscreen for infotainment.
The audio system in the Velar is also more impressive. Its Meridian® 3D Sound System tops the GLE’s 590-watt, 13-speaker system with an impressive 16 speakers and 750 watts, so go ahead and crank it up.
Whether you are traveling through city traffic and gliding under overhangs or navigating through tight paths off the pavement, one thing is for certain—you’ll need the right-sized SUV to ensure your travels are safe and seamless.
Both the 2022 Velar and 2022 GLE are large and in charge when it comes to exterior size, but bigger isn’t always better. The Range Rover model is slightly smaller than the Mercedes-Benz GLE, making it easier to park, as well as maneuver through streets and trails. Best of all, it does so without sacrificing room in the cabin.
