It's apparently great for overtaking with incredible traction thought I'm not too sure about the popping sound when you gear shift.
Mind you, be aware that if the engine is switched to Sport mode or the transmission to manual, gearshifts are accompanied by a bellicose explosive popping from the exhaust.
Something needs to be done about those center controls for the radio and hvac, looks too dated especially as you start your eyes off on the driver portion and slowly look over to the center
The centre console does look nice, but probably a bit too complex. I'm not sure what it is, maybe just design, but I think that other Benz interiors have much nicer centre stacks.
It doesn't look dated but I can agree with Glen in that it looks a bit too complex for daily use. Most of us will probably need a bit of time to adjust to everything and even then a few buttons will most likely remain unused a majority of the time.
Calling someone on that keypad is more distracting than pressing a button on your phone to quick dial a contact. At least that's the only use I can see fort he GLE keypad. Unless you can preset numbers into each individual number?
But as you have a feel for the placement of the numbers its not that big of an issue, for most of the time when typing what you need to type you don't need to look
Ahhhh speed dialing with the keypad makes more sense. Not sure why I didn't think Mercedes already has something similar in place other than the GLE...
