Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 than in the Buick Enclave, due to its greater head- and legroom.

With the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Buick Enclave, due to its tank size and fuel economy.
