AMG GLE Coupe in 2026 — what's new

The C167 facelift carries into 2026 unchanged. Its latest announced update is the 2023 GLE and GLE Coupe facelift, which brings only electrified powertrains, including AMG versions. The Malaysian AMG range remains a two-car line-up: the GLE 53 4Matic+ has a 2,999 cc, 429 hp petrol-hybrid powertrain, while the GLE 63S 4Matic+ Coupe has 3,982 cc and 603 hp. Both retain traditional automatic transmissions and five seats.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should take the GLE 53 4Matic+ at RM873,888. Its 429 hp output is substantial, and it retains the same five-seat layout and traditional automatic transmission as the flagship. The GLE 63S 4Matic+ Coupe costs RM1,229,888, so the RM356,000 gap buys 174 hp more and a larger 3,982 cc powertrain. Pay more only if 603 hp is the point of the purchase. On paper, you are paying for output rather than a different seating arrangement; check the equipment list closely.

Verdict

This is an expensive executive SUV: the entry AMG GLE Coupe starts above the BMW X6’s RM734,800 entry point, while the Mazda CX-80, Audi Q8 e-tron and Volkswagen Touareg begin far lower. But the AMG pair brings 429 hp or 603 hp alongside electrified petrol powertrains. It suits buyers who place AMG performance ahead of the lowest purchase price in this class.
