Mercedes-Benz GLE Build Sheet by VIN
Same lookup as the Mercedes-Benz data card by VIN and the Mercedes-Benz build sheet by VIN — same free availability check, same $9.99 report, for every Mercedes-Benz model.
A Mercedes-Benz GLE build sheet shows how one SUV or Coupe VIN was built: model (GLE 350, 450, 580 or AMG GLE), paint, upholstery and installed options such as AIRMATIC or E-Active Body Control, the Driver Assistance and Premium packages, the third row and the factory hitch, each with its option code when the build data includes it.

What a Mercedes-Benz GLE build sheet shows
On a GLE the expensive differences are chassis and seating: AIRMATIC versus E-Active Body Control, a third row or not, and the assistance and premium bundles. The example below is a real excerpt of what a GLE build record looks like in CarWhere build data — package codes such as DA2 and DP1 next to equipment codes such as 413 and 550.
- • The factory model, exterior paint and upholstery recorded for that VIN.
- • Installed factory options and packages, with option codes, when the underlying build data includes them.
- • Original MSRP figures, when the underlying build data includes them — not every VIN or model year has this available.
- • A downloadable, printable PDF you can keep with the car’s records or share with a seller or lender.
Data density varies by model year and specific VIN — some return a full option and MSRP breakdown, others model and color only. You see which applies before you pay. Not included: accident history, title brands (salvage, flood, lemon), odometer history, prior-owner count, service records.
Mercedes-Benz GLE options that matter most
Focus: V167. Linked codes are from the Mercedes-Benz option code reference (applicability in brackets). Options marked “by name” appear on the build record under their option name — the code varies by model and year and is shown on the build sheet for that VIN.
| Option | Code (applies to) | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Driver Assistance Package (Plus) |
| The assistance suite used buyers ask about first; invisible from outside. |
| Premium Package |
| US bundle of comfort and technology items; read the line items on the record. |
| AIRMATIC air suspension |
| Adaptive air suspension and a maintenance item buyers check for. The 2022 record shows it as US package code DC8; the reference equipment code is 489. |
| E-Active Body Control | By name | The active-suspension upgrade offered on higher GLE models. Listed by name. |
| Night Package |
| Black exterior accents; easy to imitate with wraps. |
| Panoramic sliding sunroof |
| A frequent first filter for used SUV buyers. |
| Trailer coupling |
| Factory hitch versus aftermarket — the code settles it. |
| Third-row seating | By name | Optional on the V167 GLE; family buyers filter for it. Listed by name. |
| Burmester 3D surround sound | By name | Premium audio upgrade. Listed by name. |
Paint is a separate three-digit code on the vehicle data plate and data card — see the Mercedes-Benz paint code reference. How to read the rest of a data card: Mercedes-Benz option codes explained.

Example: a Mercedes-Benz GLE VIN, position by position
Illustrative example, not a specific car: 4JGFB5KB8NA012345 is a check-digit-valid pattern that the federal decoder reads as 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class GLE450 4MATIC SUV, plant Vance, Alabama, USA (NHTSA vPIC). Nothing in the 17 characters describes options — those live in the build record (the data card) for the VIN. Decode any Mercedes-Benz VIN free with the Mercedes-Benz VIN decoder.
| Positions | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | 4JG | World Manufacturer Identifier — Mercedes-Benz SUVs assembled in the US (vPIC: Mercedes-Benz of North America). |
| 4–8 | FB5KB | Vehicle descriptor — Mercedes model line, body, engine and restraint coding; here a GLE 450 4MATIC SUV. |
| 9 | 8 | Check digit (validates the other 16 characters). |
| 10 | N | Model year 2022. |
| 11 | A | Assembly plant: Vance, Alabama, USA. |
| 12–17 | 012345 | Production serial number for that plant. |
Build sheet vs. the data card and window sticker
The original window sticker (Monroney label) lists the factory options and their prices, and the Mercedes-Benz data card lists the option codes — but a used car often no longer has either, and Mercedes me only shows a car's own records once the VIN is authenticated to an owner account. A CarWhere build sheet is the instant option when you are not the owner yet: This CarWhere build sheet is reconstructed from available VIN-level build data. It is not an official Mercedes-Benz data card, Monroney label, or factory certificate. Other routes — dealer printouts, service records, the Mercedes-Benz window sticker by VIN — are compared in how to find Mercedes options by VIN.

FAQ
How do I get a build sheet for a Mercedes GLE?
Enter the VIN on this page for a free availability check. If detailed build data exists, the build sheet is $9.99 one-time and lists the factory model, colors and installed options and packages when the build data includes them.
What do GLE option codes like DA2 or DP1 mean?
They are US package codes. On the 2022 GLE 450 example record CarWhere publishes, DA2 is Driver Assistance Package Plus, DP1 the Premium Package, DC8 AIRMATIC Suspension and DC1 the Night Package. Package codes can differ by model and year, so read them against the car’s own record.
Does my GLE have AIRMATIC or E-Active Body Control?
Check the build record. AIRMATIC appears as an option or package code; E-Active Body Control is listed by name when the build data includes it. A ride-height button is a clue, not proof.
Does every GLE have a third row?
No. The third row is optional on the V167 GLE. The build record lists seating when the build data includes installed options.
Is the CarWhere GLE build sheet the official Mercedes-Benz data card?
No. It is reconstructed from licensed VIN-level build data and is not an official Mercedes-Benz data card, Monroney label or factory certificate. Mercedes me shows a car’s own records only once the VIN is authenticated to an owner account.
