Hey John, for your 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE with factory raised rails you can use the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711400 with the Evo Raised Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710401.

These bars measure 53" long, has a max weight capacity of 220 lbs, and are made from heavy duty aluminum which is lightweight but still very durable.
