Featuring a mightily impressive design with powerful overall proportions, the new, locally-assembled Mercedes-Benz GLA is a slick modern car that provides pure driving pleasure, especially for long-distance travel. Boasting a stylishly refreshing SUV silhouette and hallmark off-road design with powerful shoulders of the bodywork and coupé-like lines of the side windows, the vehicle aims to provide the ultimate luxury automotive experience.

There are two variants available – the GLA 200 Progressive Line and GLA 250 AMG Line – and both offer a spacious interior, ample leg space in the rear for one or two people, and a roomy luggage compartment, with the seating position for both the front passenger and driver higher and more upright than its predecessor. When you need more space than what the car boot allows, the rear seat backrests can be folded down to reveal an almost flat loading area extending to the front seats.

Driving, whether on-road or off, will feel sturdy, light and relaxing thanks in large part to the lowered and dynamically tuned suspension that aims to intensify your driving experience. In terms of equipment, two lines are available: the GLA 200 is equipped in Progressive Line with 18-inch 5-twin-spoke alloy wheels while the GLA 250 is equipped with AMG Line body styling and 19-inch AMG 5-twin-spoke alloy wheels.
