The Mercedes-Benz GLE does not place sole focus on offering powerful performance and agile handling alone that can support smooth rides every time. instead, it also sets aside enough efforts to pay close attention to its cabin interior as well to ensure optimum comfort can be felt at all times. Do you think the Lexus GX is a good match of the GLE? Let us compare their features and strengths and see how each car fares.
Design & Style
The GLE can fully support up to 5 people comfortably in its cabin under the car’s standard configuration. Its cabin comes furnished with seats that are cushy and supple whereas space is abundant and spread across its rows. The GLE is styled in a way that evokes a sense of luxury with the use of top-grade materials to line its sides and cover its surfaces completely.
The Lexus GX has an interior that looks posh with a full utilization of premium materials for its surfaces. It can seat 7 people in all three rows but captain’s chairs would reduce its capacity to just 6. Power adjustment options at the front row are standard whereas others like real leather upholstery, heat and ventilation functions, and power reclining seats come as additional upgrades.
