At Mercedes-Benz of Portland, we offer a wide variety of Mercedes-Benz coupes, convertibles, SUVs, sedans, and even electric vehicles. Whatever your unique driving needs may be, we’re confident we can find something in our inventory that matches your budget and lifestyle. Two of our bestselling SUVs are the Mercedes-Benz GLB and the Mercedes-Benz GLE, both top-notch luxury models that offer the latest specs and features. They’re both great choices, but which model better suits your needs? If you’re on the fence deciding between the GLB vs. GLE, check out the comparison guide below!
Price is often the first thing that drivers see when shopping for a new vehicle, so let’s start our comparison guide by looking at the respective pricing and trim levels for the GLB and GLE. As a compact model, the GLB is more affordable than the mid-size GLE, but the GLE gives you the advantage of more trim levels to choose from, as well as more powerful performance specs. Both models offer standard and AMG® high-performance trims:
The Mercedes-Benz GLB and GLE both come with multiple engine options depending on the trim level you choose. You’ll enjoy strong performance specs on the Beaverton roads no matter what, but the larger GLE ultimately has the advantage when it comes to horsepower and torque. The GLE also comes with two mild hybrid powertrains if you want to add a bit of high-performance electric power to the traditional internal combustion engine. Compare specs below:

Interior space is another area of importance to SUV drivers, particularly those looking for a family-friendly vehicle. As we discussed above, the Mercedes-Benz GLB is a compact model while the GLE is a mid-size model, so naturally the GLE offers more overall passenger and cargo space. However, both models can seat up to seven passengers across three rows:
