The first prototype new SUV-sector GLE Coupe was handmade specially for filming, and will be seen on screen at a time coinciding with its mid-2015 market launch. Mercedes’ GLE 450 AMG Sport was made available for Jurassic World filming one-and-a-half years before its market launch.

Unveiling new GLE Coupe in Jurassic World was a natural fit says producer Frank Marshall as Mercedes vehicles featured in the film are a perfect transportation choice in the international theme park created at Jurassic World. A co-promotion package is planned for the film release.
