2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 review: Our expert's take

What Is the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class?

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class is a subcompact luxury SUV that seats up to five people.

Front- and all-wheel-drive versions are available, and competitors include the Audi Q3 and BMW X1.

What's New on the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class?

There are no significant changes this year.

What Features in the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class Are Most Important?

Automatic emergency braking is an important active safety feature, and it's standard on the GLA-Class. Standard convenience features include a power liftgate, dual-zone air conditioning and keyless start. Options include a panoramic moonroof, blind spot warning and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity.

Should I Buy the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class?

If you're looking for a stylish small SUV, the GLA-Class delivers, but its small footprint contributes to difficult entry and exit, limited headroom and a cramped backseat. Among key competitors, the BMW X1 is roomier.

New to Mercedes Family

I have driven only American cars since 2006, they normally come with lots of bells and whistles, so it was funny to see an ash tray and CD player in the vehicle. I like the way the car handles. It is smooth to drive and comfortable. Not too big and not too small.

...repeatedly took to dealership for problems only to be told that was normal for that car, after all it was made by Nissan and "you will do your research next time" No repair or fix was offered after being taken for way too much for this car. I was a Mercedes only person till now.
