Don’t make your old man angry—especially when you have alternative options! The Mercedes SUV that’s comparable to the BMW X5 is the Mercedes GLE SUV Class. With similar looks and features, as well as several trims to choose from, you should find that it checks all the boxes that the X5 does.

The major difference between these models is what lies under the hood, which ranges from a simple 255-hp 2.0-liter turbo-four (GLE 350) to a gargantuan 603-hp 4.0-liter turbo V-8. All models integrate Mercedes opulence, room for up to seven passengers, a foldable third row, and more—all akin to the BMW X5.
