Comfort
                                        Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the BMW 230 than the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450.
                                        The BMW 230 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450.
                                     
Convenience
                                        The Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 requires fewer visits to the gas station than the BMW 230, making it more convenient to drive.
                                     
Cost
                                        There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle.  The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP).   Based on MSRP, the BMW 230 is clearly a better financial choice over the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450.
                                     
Dimensions
                                        Since the BMW 230 is much slimmer than the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot.
                                        If you go with the BMW 230, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450.

Powertrain
                                        The BMW 230 has much less torque than the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
                                     
Utility
