Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class

Automobiles

The Mercedes-Benz GLA is a subcompact luxury crossover SUV that Mercedes-Benz has built and sold in two generations. It is essentially the SUV counterpart of the A-Class and the smallest SUV in the brand range. The production version was revealed in August 2013 ahead of the Frankfurt Motor Show, and the first generation, coded X156, reached showrooms during 2014. The second generation, coded H247, was introduced in December 2019 on the second MFA platform. Engines are four-cylinder petrol and diesel units with front-wheel drive or the 4Matic all-wheel drive system, and a high-performance GLA 45 AMG sits at the top of the first generation. The name follows Mercedes SUV naming, where GL stands for Geländewagen and the A marks the smallest class.
