  Glam no gutts! - 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By Mushi - March 11 - 9:00 pm

  Looked liked a Honda on the inside. Too expensive for what you get. Might as well buy a CRV.

  Great choice for young generations - 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By steam0411 - June 1 - 10:17 am

  Although the noise control and riding comfort is not good as other Mercedes model, it is totally enough for young people. I really dont care about the space of rear seat. The power is great and also its fuel economy. Its perfect for young people, I enjoy the driving so much.

  A sporty cross-over GLA250 - 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By Grazelgarcia@gmail.com - July 12 - 4:59 pm

  I love this car! Its a small crossover but its perfect enough for me and it doesnt feel like Im in a big family SUV. I got the car with the sports package and it drives really really well with good handle on turns. The trunk, however, is small so if you have huge cargo at all times, this may not be the right car for you. The car is worth test driving and if you like it make sure that you do research before you lease. Dont forget to utilize edmunds.com for the resources they offer!

  I really enjoy this vehicle. - 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By George - April 5 - 2:46 am

  This vehicle is very comfortable to drive. Even in cold weather, the heating system keeps the vehicle comfortable. After about 1500 miles, I have had no trouble with it at all. The styling of the exterior makes me smile. It is a cute, stylish SUV.

  Cool Week in Florida with a GLA 250 - 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By Dirk Durstein - December 7 - 3:16 pm

  Rented a GLA 250 4-matic to drive from West Palm Beach to St. Augustine and back for a wedding. The front seats were exceptionally comfortable and supportive, and the rear cargo area was plenty for two and our gear. Not much room in the rear for passengers - which was irrelevant to us. Performance - acceleration, handling, braking - was exhilarating. Ride was firm but not harsh while cruising. Fuel economy was excellent. Used sport mode around town and economy on the highway, with sport steering setting. Cruises easily at 100 mph with little road noise and full control. The engine stop/start feature was an aggravation, with hesitation, so I disabled it. The transmission was smoother in sport mode than in economy or comfort. There is a custom feature available too. Audio was good but not great, and no equalizer controls. I would opt for the Harmon-Kardon upgrade for $750 (can be ordered separately from various packages). Burnished aluminum on dash was ugly and reflected too much sun. Opt for wood. Electronics were a steep learning curve indeed; but this was a rental with insufficient time to study the manual. Not intuitive. I agree the central screen looks like a cheap add-on. Visibility is limited due to the small windows all around. I normally drive a Ford Focus hatch with manual tranny, so the outstanding performance and solid quality build was impressive. Missed the clutch; but there are paddle shifters. Did not take it offroad; but doubt it would make it over the dune on the Outer Banks. More of a slick-handling sporty AWD hatch with tremendous performance for the price. Cannot even imagine driving the AMG version.

  I hate fake leather - 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By Monica Kaufman - October 10 - 1:49 am

  for this amount of money, fake leather is annoying. Also, I know I live in TX but why is it so difficult to find a dark leather interior (I have dogs and teenagers...... light colored interiors are difficult to keep clean.... and light pleather doesnt clean well at all) so damned difficult to find.

  GLA45 one of the fastest CUV ever, if not the fastest! - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By rskdsk - June 15 - 10:31 am

  0-60 in just 4.2 sec and runs the 1/4 in 12.8 at 109 ... and it is a 4 cylinder! Handles great, sounds even better with the race exhaust. I looked at the SQ5 and found the outdated shape not thrilling anymore ... Looked at the Porsche Macan but the price with options and the wait time seemed outrageous and then add the maintenance cost and the fact that it rides like a truck ... I looked at the new Lexus NX but the lack of power and handling seemed weak at best. Same thing with the Q3. The GLA 250 seemed to be the better deal ... until I tested the GLA45 ... the rest is history.

  Steering Wheel Module - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class
  By kdonde - February 9 - 6:57 pm

  When I first bought this car, I was in love with it! Within the first 2 months of driving it, an error popped up on my dash. The dealership told me that my steering wheel module was not working and that the part was on back order, coming from Europe (30 days). You can imagine my disappointment. If that part is on back order you think to yourself, this must happen a lot! Im almost second guessing buying a Mercedes.
