The GLA is fully redesigned for this year, as you can see from the video side by side with the older model, the difference is noticeable. Before we start comparing the GLB vs GLA, first what’s new with the GLA. Exterior has been redesigned, front end, rear end, the grill has one line across compare to older model:
Is more than 3.9 inches higher than its predecessor, but 0.6 inches shorter;
Offers more headroom at the front and considerably more legroom in the rear;
Is able to react in emergency situations when the driver doesn't with the standard Active Brake Assist system that can apply autonomous braking to avoid a collision or to reduce its severity;
Extends the functions of the Driver Assistance Package with the addition of, for example, the exit warning function alerting the driver to approaching cyclists or vehicles, and a warning when pedestrians are detected near crosswalks;;
4MATIC features the Off-Road Engineering Package as standard;
Includes MBUX infotainment system (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) as standard.

When I was editing the video I had to check 3 times to make sure I was presenting the right interior, they are identical inside!
The only difference I could see was the dashboard on the passenger side. Ever so slightly different.
We have the GLB and have not regretted a day choosing it. We love it! What I love most about the GLB is the style/design...it's a model that is not afraid to look like a traditional SUV and foregoes the SUV coupe (oxymoron) trend. That alone was a home-run for us, and then the interior with its uber modern displays and luxurious feel sealed it. We're very pleased to say the least. 👍
Exactly the review I was looking for! I couldn’t find one a few days ago, but here you are! Thank you!
Happy to help :)
Just joined the mercedes club with a glb 2023 fully packaged, was going to go for the glb 35 amg but the whole point of the car in mind wasnt to go fast anyways, and its the greatest vehicle ever. Ive been in bmws, lexus, alfa romeos. Nothing hit the soft spot like mercedes has in the past 4 years.
Great video. Helped me decide on the glb. Thank you for the useful content.
I like the GLA because it is a wide small SUV-light vehicle.
after reviewing your video, I will take GLB 100%. Thank you for making this video, that help a lot!
Thank you for this! Extremely helpful!
Nice description, Thank you.
I bought the Mercedes GLB 250 with the AMG package and this was an excellent video about the SUV and Sam knocked it out completely out of the park! He definitely hit on all of the key points of why I liked the SUV, great job!
Thank you :)
THESE 2 ARE FIRE MAN
Good comparison. Thanks
Sam, add the body roll feel and steering feedback next time on your driving impressions... That’s what I’m looking for. 😜
GLA 250 4matic... Honestly I only didn’t like the “Shift like a truck” on this car. But still, the best car I entered, drived and have it EVERYTHING and more. I love this car so much. The handling is so good.
Super helpful. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
well I ordered myself a 2021 mercedes-benz GLC 300 , premium, premium plus, sport package , and intelligent drive.white with black and red interior, coming to Canada from Germany in jan-feb2021. 4 matics .cheers thanks for your reviews
Awesome! Congrats
Thank you for the review!
Just purchased 2020 GLB
Hope you enjoy it!
That’s awesome. I am thinking about buying a 2022 GLB now too. Have you had any issues w the car?
Great job and comparison ! I’m from the GTA and will get my gla next week. Moving up from the b250 - so more of a natural transition for me.
how is your experience?
@@Alainke Pretty good. A definite step up in class from the B250 - this is my 4th Benz. Drive is good, and 360 camera with the parking sensor make any type of parking a joke. The apple car play works great. I have the dual 7 inch dash - a great upgrade. I don't use the power much, but the turbo is very responsive when required. Just be careful when using the automatic lift back. If you are underground keep an eye on the height of the ceiling and any piping. I'm a tough critic, but I'd give the vehicle 8.5-9/10 over 3 months of use. I preferred the base grill's look, so I didn't opt for AMG styling. They also revamped the mercedes ME app. It works very well and I can lock, turn off, turn off my car from my phone as well.
Very nice! I’m sold on the 2021 GLB :) Mercedes should give you a cut lol
Thank you so much for this review. I was having difficulties to choose which of these 2 models to buy. I
Here to help
@@SamCarLegion In my country, the GLA cost about 110K USD while GLB is about 130K. After watching your video, I was in deep dilemma right now. lol
@@ComeForPeace where are you?
@@SamCarLegion Singapore, the place where the cars are the most expensive in the world.....Sadly
@@ComeForPeace i have read so much about Singapore and Lee Kuan Yew, never met anyone from there. Dreaming to come to Singapore. I have read so much about Singapore, the tiger of Asia. I feel sad that you have to pay so much for a car, i read that somewhere.
Can you review the 2021 GLC vs 2021 GLC coupe ? Great Review !
I bought the GLA250 last Sep, and had great driving experience . Love the space inside, and the outlooking better than the GLB
Good job 👍👍👍
Soul Mate thank you
Your best review yet. Keep up with the good job Sam. Great comparison with the two hottest new SUV(ish) in the market. Thank you for being the first one to do it.
Thank you
Gla is the best! Great ride!
Mine GLB is fantastic!
I see in dealer the GLB and GLA, but the GLB is more better.....space, lines, size.....and the price is the same!
What is the dB meter reading?
I wish I seen this video earlier this year ..I ended up settling with a Audi Q3 and I HATE it . I am a new mom and needed to get rid of my 2018 GLC because i needed more space ..welp I'm here to tell you with the Q3 we can barley even fit a rear facing car seat .l Cant wait to get a GLB
The GLB is deal maker
watched your many videos and I conclude that you and I came from different planets. 🤣
Definitely, you live in a colder planet, I live in the hotter one 😭
Can you do a parking video
How much do you think is the ensurance? I was gonna get the gla for my bday now Im torn. Lol
I have the 2018 GLA250 and I guessed it depends where you live and your age. Leasing makes the insurance a bit higher and of course your driving records. Overall a decent car🤷🏻♀️
Can you do a review with gla 35 vs glb
Will do
AMG Line is just compulsory for GLA model...
You may need another microphone Sam, the LED circular light brightness can be improved too
Foodie Kid thank you :) I love my zoom it’s clear
@@SamCarLegion Sounds like too much treble to me, personally prefer Rode, better equalized
Foodie Kid it’s the Adobe Premier
@@SamCarLegion I see, I usually do Lav or medium diaphragm condenser, didn't do too much on post adjustment thou
Foodie Kid the zoom has an amazing mic add on, I love this. Just need to use the Adobe premier features better
I just don't get why the price is so similar. Is the GLB under priced? or is the GLA overpriced?
It’s to get people
Confused
Just took both of these out for test drives with my girlfriend yesterday. I dunno if it’s the 2022 model for the GLA, but it was noticeably quieter, felt more nimble and quicker and while the look is more ‘feminine’, with the sport package I think it definitely looks better then the GLB.
As a man that finds the G Wagon to be the best looking SUV because of the boxy shape, I was surprised how I didn’t care for the GLB. It just looks awkward to me.
How about the seats, is it comfy?
Similar on both
Hi would you say the gla targets a younger age group? I'm torn between the two, I think the gla gives more of a girlie compact vibe.
Yes
MB have options double insulated side windows maybe GLB had it GLA not because such quitness difference 25% cannot be on more aerodynamic friendly GLA with $380 dollars MSRP difference between them
It could be :) but the difference is there
Hi did both gla and glb have the same tires? We all know perelli tires are noisy. Thx
I believe so
By the way fantastic job and description of the vehicles. I am looking at getting a 2021 gla 35 from performance Mercedes St.Cathariens with quite a few options. But now the noise from ride, and pot holes, is scaring me its holding me back. Is a gla amg 35 smother than a250 that you had out fir the test drive .Thank you. Its only two of us, the odd time one or two of the grandkids ride along, but not often enough that's why I don't want to go to the bigger Glb. Thank you
@@joedandrea3707 thank you for watching the video. I am confused about your question please explain so I can help :) cheers
@@SamCarLegion Hi Sam what i mean to say is the gla250 you mention its noisy when driving you can hear the road noise. Also you can feel the pot holes and road cracks is another thing you mentioned. My question is is the GLA 35 amg give you the same ride. I have added primium package and amg drivers package, technology package, intelligence drive. With these option correct this problem. Or is the gla 35 much better than gla250.
Thank you
The GLA looks better from the front, 2:40 the GLB looks slightly dated. Almost like a 2010 Glk350. I bet they will update it within the next year or two. Other than that, I like the GLB better in every way
I was wandering why there’s not a GLB PHEV available.
That’s a good point. Being new, i am assuming Mercedes is testing the market
gla về việt nam đi, gla về việt nam cỡ này rất được ưa chuộng đấy,
I could see too different body styles. One you could add a forth seat and the other you cant?😮 to small.
Cộng đồng việt nam đang ngóng chờ GLA
Ive heard theres no space for spare tire on GLA? Is it true?
I believe they use run flats
@@SamCarLegion what does that mean? thank you!
@@leyantucker9271 you can drive it for a while till you get to the closest mechanic to fix your tire or get a new one. I feel confused also, might be the technology nowdays... I always thought was so bad that every car don’t even get the Spare tire like an original one, just that thin ugly thing. But is funny, in the sheet when you have all the info about the car with the price it says 5 wheels but no spare for the GLA.
@@leyantucker9271 Mercedes-Benz vehicles are either equipped with run flat tires, a tire fit mobility kit, or a spare tire,
A run flat tire is a tire that will provide you with a 50-mile driving range when the tire is punctured.
A tire fit mobility kit consists of an air compressor with an attached hose and an integrated bottle of a thick, sticky sealant. This is particularly useful in countries where roadways are in good condition and have a extensive road assistance capability.
Prefer old gla sorry
GLA is really nice I have one, the GLB is ugly
