![]() ![]() It’s a fiery, deep-to-midtone red that will look just as good with a few weeks’ road grime caked to its flanks as it will when it is spotlessly clean and sitting in blazing sunshine. It’s Hyacinth Red, which isn’t the sportiest of names, we grant you, yet it’s definitely the raciest colour for Merc’s prestigious big SUV. This is arguably the finest colour in the entire Mercedes GLE range – perhaps why it is one of the joint-most expensive finishes at £695 – and it’s the one which will suit the high-performance AMG 53 and 63 S models the most. These are normally the most expensive and rarest of paint options, and are not offered on many new car models. Matte = uses special ‘flattening’ agents in the paint/layering make-up to give the car a non-reflective appearance, and sometimes an unusual texture too. They’re normally as expensive as or pricier than metallic paints. These not only reflect light but refract it too, giving one colour different appearances in different levels of light. Pearlescent/Mica = as above, only instead of metal, ceramic crystals (known as ‘mica’) are added to the paint. ![]() Metallic finishes usually cost more than solid paints. Metallic = same application process as above but the paint now has powdered metal mixed into it, which reflects more light to give the car a shinier appearance. Solid paints aren’t particularly shiny and are normally the only standard/no-cost colours offered by manufacturers. Usually comprises 3 coats, these being a primer, then the paint, then a clear, protective lacquer. Solid = a simple body colour with no additives in the paint. Alongside the exterior finishes, we also outline the interior colours that Mercedes provides to go with these paint choices. There are 8 main paint options for the GLE and GLE Coupe ranges, comprising 1 solid paint and then 7 metallic paints – 2 of which are more prestigious finishes which Mercedes sells under its ‘Manufaktur’ umbrella. Please ensure that you arrange appropriate insurance cover where possible.Here’s a detailed look at the paint palette available on the Mercedes-Benz GLE 5-door, 7-seater SUV, and its more rakish spin-off in the form of the 5-door, 5-seat GLE Coupe, which we hope will help you choose your perfect new car colour.
