A V8 engine is usually an unnecessary luxury, but what a gratifying one it can be, especially when it's a German-engineered twin-turbo example. The GLS 580 is actually significantly quicker than the six-cylinder AMG GLE 53, which costs about the same. We'd take the V8 without a second thought.
2. 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE 580 4MATIC 3-Row (4.0T AWD)
- Base Price: $88,800
- MPG Combined: 17
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 4.0-liter V8
- Aspiration: Turbocharged
- Transmission: 9-speed automatic
- Horsepower: 510
- Torque: 538 lb-ft
- 0-60: 4.3 sec
- Weight: 5,368 lbs

Why not add the third row to your GLS 580? It's only $2,100 more, and it adds a whole new dimension of versatility.
