2025 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE 450E 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as rear damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, citing extensive missing and deformed rear bumper and right-rear quarter components. The rear bumper cover is missing on both sides, exposing the bumper reinforcement, internal mounting areas, wiring, and underbody components. The right rear quarter panel and bumper corner show severe creasing and deformation around the tail lamp and wheel arch. The right rear wheel-arch trim is also missing, leaving mounting holes and the inner wheel-arch area exposed. The lower right portion of the tailgate has a broad, uneven crease and deformation adjacent to the missing bumper. The right rear bumper corner cover and surrounding trim are absent, exposing structural areas, electrical components, and the exhaust area. Detached parts shown on the ground behind the vehicle include the rear bumper cover, wheel-arch liners, heat-shield panels, and an axle-like shaft component. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class GLE450e 4MATIC SUV, manufactured in the United States. It is identified as a plug-in hybrid with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder M254 engine, electric drive, a nine-speed automatic transmission, and a reported engine output of 381 hp. The supplied data lists standard safety and driver-assistance equipment including ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear automatic emergency braking, parking assistance, and a rear visibility system. Because the rear impact area includes exposed wiring, underbody components, heat shields, and a separately shown axle-like shaft, a complete structural, suspension, exhaust, electrical, and plug-in-hybrid system inspection is recommended before purchase. The extent of damage and the missing components indicate that parts replacement, body repairs, alignment checks, and electronic-system diagnostics may be required.
