Close 2025 BMW X5 vs 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE Class in Kenner, LA
2025 BMW X5 (left) and 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE Class (right) shown above with optional equipment.
The 2025 BMW X5 has caught your attention with its sophisticated cabin and up-to-date entertainment features, but you may still be wondering how it stands up against peers like the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE Class. To get a glimpse of the benefits that this luxury midsize SUV can offer during your Kenner journeys, browse through this helpful overview from our team at Peake BMW!
Performance
If you’re torn between the X5 and the GLE Class, learning more about the strength provided by each model will make it easier to choose a favorite. Thanks to a standard 3.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engine beneath its hood, the X5 can propel you down I-10 with an impressive output of 375 horsepower and 398 lb.-ft. of torque. With its output of 255 horsepower and 273 lb.-ft. of torque, the GLE Class’ standard 2.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder powertrain lags behind. The BMW also has an advantage in terms of efficiency. While the GLE Class only has a fuel economy rating of 19/26/22 MPG city/hwy/combined1, the X5 boasts a 23/27/25 MPG city/hwy/combined2 rating that will allow you to forgo a few stops at the gas pump.
Interior
Although the 2025 BMW X5 and the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE Class each come standard with seating for five, you’ll notice several significant differences within their cabins. First of all, the X5’s standard multi-zone automatic climate control system has a clear edge over the GLE Class’ standard dual-zone version. Fashionable drivers often prefer the BMW’s standard Sensafin-trimmed seating surfaces to the GLE Class’ standard MB-Tex upholstery. While the GLE Class does have a standard power tilt-and-slide sunroof, similar to the X5’s standard panoramic moonroof, it is unable to offer the embedded constellation-pattern lights in the BMW’s available Sky Lounge LED Panoramic Roof. If you’re looking for comfort and style, the X5 is full of details that you won’t find elsewhere.
Technology
In terms of entertainment and informational technology, the BMW X5 distinguishes itself once again. Its dashboard houses a standard 14.3-inch touchscreen, an easier way to control music and maps than the GLE Class’ 12.3-inch alternative. Both vehicles come standard with wireless Apple CarPlay®3 and Android Auto™4 integrations, so you can focus on selecting the one with a larger display and other important features. Do you love singing along to your favorite channels on SiriusXM® during a long road trip? If so, you’ll appreciate the X5’s standard 1-year trial subscription, which will give you access to free tunes long after the GLE Class’ 6-month trial subscription ends. When you’re ready to take a closer look at the exciting features that sets the X5 apart from the crowd, schedule a test drive at Peake BMW!
