Unlike most automakers, which roll out the pricing of each new model year one by one, Mercedes likes to release all of its pricing at once. Typically, this release would go unnoticed, as it is too in-depth to cover, but in 2016, there are four models of interest that Mercedes is rolling out and we now have the pricing on said vehicles.

The vehicles in question include three all-new rigs and one updated vehicle. The two brand-new vehicles for 2016 are the GLC, GLE, and GLE Coupe. The updated model of interest for 2016 is the G-Class.

The GLE, which is essentially an updated version of the M-Class, will come in six flavors. The base model will be the GLE350, which will start from $51,100, while the GLE350 4MATIC will start at $53,600. Next in line is the diesel-powered GLE300d 4MATIC, which starts from $52,500. The GLE400 4MATIC will ring in at $64,600. Finally, the range-topping GLE63 AMG and AMG S will start out at $99,950 and $107,100, respectively.

In September, Mercedes will also release the GLE550e 4MATIC, but it hasn’t determined a price yet.

The GLE Coupe, which is the (ahem) “sportier” version of the GLE, will initially arrive in only two styles: GLE450 AMG 4MATIC and GLE63 S AMG 4MATIC. The GLE450 AMG will start out at $65,100, while the GLE63 AMG S 4MATIC willstart from $109,300.

The GLC, which is a compact crossover SUV, will arrive in dealers in November in two versions: GLC300 and the GLC300 4MATIC. The base model will start from $38,950 and the 4MATIC model will check in at $40,950.

As for the G-Class, the big news is the replacement of the 5.5-liter V-8 with the new 4.0-liter biturbo V-8. This engine boosts output to 416 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque while also improving fuel economy. The revised G550 will start out at $119,900. Also new for the G-Class is the G65 AMG, which adds a 630-horspeower 6.0-liter biturbo V-12 to the classic-looking SUV. This new AMG model starts at $217,900.

There were a few other prices on all-new vehicles released for 2016, and they include the C450 AMG 4MATIC at $50,800 and the S550e at $95,650. Both of these models will hit U.S. dealers in September 2015.
