I don't know about them being very different. If these both passed me, I wouldn't even know what was what.

GLE Coupe and X6 are very distinctive and would be mistaken as totally different models not related to the GLE and X5. Cayenne (Coupe) and Q7/Q8 you would have to stare at and look for differences.
Cayenne Coupe you don't have to stare at if you look at the side and rear end. They only really share the same front end, which could also be said for the Mercedes since the coupe and regular GLE share everything from the A-pillar forward. I don't have a hard time telling the difference between the Q7 and Q8. Q7 is more rounded and almost fat looking (due to its 3-row nature) while Q8 is more angular, modern and squared off (especially up front and rear) with a more athletic profile.

I actually think the Q8 is the most attractive but that's more because I hate hunchbacks. What's the point of getting an SUV if your gonna cut off half the cargo space? Everyone wants to turn their coupes into sedans and their sedans into SUV's.
