Hofele Merc GLE Brings the Bling
Hofele Merc GLE Brings the Bling-March 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:33

If you are into blingy cars, German tuning firm, Hofele, is offering a striking tuning kit for the Mercedes-Benz GLE range of SUVs.

At first glance, you would be forgiven for thinking that this is a Maybach GLE, but it’s not. Tuning firm, Hofele, has worked its magic on the GLE to create this rather flamboyant luxury SUV which comes to life thanks to its two-tone paint job featuring a Tiffany Gold finish combined with Obsidian Black. Also, notice the prominent vertical chrome slats in the grille as well as the chrome surrounding the gaping air intakes and lower air dam which adds further contrast to the bodywork. The chrome garnishes are also found at the rear where the quad exhaust system communicate performance intent.

The Hofele GLE rides on massive 23-inch forged alloy wheels featuring a turbine-inspired design with a polished gold finish to match.

The bling continues inside where Hofele has kitted out the interior in Nappa Leather and Alcantara. The driver has access to a widescreen cockpit featuring the latest MBUX infotainment system and there are 2 individual seats at the rear divided by a central console and rear passengers also have access to mounted infotainment screens. The load bay has been reworked to feature a high-gloss wooden floor finished in aluminium.

Hofele badging is seen on the seatbacks and headrest pillows while interior mood lighting creates a sense of comfort and luxury inside this opulent GLE.

Is this upgrade by Hofele something you would consider if you owned a GLE? Share your thoughts with us!
