Great car for everything

Smoothest ride ever. You feel safe in this car and your overall visibility is great. Saved on gas already and interior is great and seats are very comfy Mercedes app gives you a chance to start engine from a distance snd reminds you to lock car if you forget. Verbal commands to Mercedes makes calling folks if changing stations...

Great car.

Just got the 2023 gla 250 4matic. It’s good looking inside and out and drives very well, comfortable and sporty in perfect combination. My only knock would be the front seats seem a little small. You have to do a lot of option thinking to get exactly what you want and are willing to pay for but otherwise a good value.

2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 review: Our expert's take

What Is the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA?

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA is a subcompact luxury SUV with seating for five and a choice of several turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The most powerful are reserved for the AMG GLA35 and AMG GLA45 variants, which offer 302 and 382 horsepower, respectively. As for the regular GLA250, it has a 221-hp, 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder that’s paired to an eight-speed automatic and your choice of front- or all-wheel drive. Performance is peppy, and fuel economy is solid for a small SUV. While the sleek shape limits the overall practicality of the GLA, it remains a refined and stylish alternative to rivals like the BMW X1, Volvo XC40, Audi Q3 and Lexus UX.

Should I Buy the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA?

The Mercedes-Benz GLA is an attractive and highly maneuverable pick among premium small SUVs. If rock-crawling abilities and loads of cargo space are your top priorities, however, you’ll want to look elsewhere. Its size makes the GLA easy to place exactly where you want it, and the turbocharged four-cylinder engines provide plenty of character. The AMG variants considerably amp up the GLA’s performance, but they also demand a hefty price premium over the regular GLA250.
