About the GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel SUV of 2,175 kg with 255 bhp, which works out at 117 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.09 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,684th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 466th quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 91.2 mph at the lights is only the 4,745th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

The Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 reaches 60 mph in 6.35 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,684th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 quarter mile time?
14.86 s at 91.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.43 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.09 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 have?
255 bhp and 2,175 kg, which is 117 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbodiesel, with 9 gears and a quoted top speed of 225 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258?
Closest here on pace: BMW X1 xDrive 23i 218 (6.33 s), BMW X5 xDrive 35d 265 (6.36 s), Cupra Formentor 2.0 TSI 190 (6.32 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 350 d 4MATIC 258 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
