Overview

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA is closely related to the A-Class hatchback, but rides higher and features a more off-roadery look to its styling. Its biggest draw is, of course, the premium allure of the three-pointed star on the bonnet, along with a generally impressive build quality. Compared with other similar SUVs such as the Volvo XC40 and Nissan Qashqai, however, the GLA is a little flawed, featuring limited space for both passengers and luggage, while rivals such as the Audi Q3 and BMW X1 are better to drive.
Strengths:
Premium looks, inside and out
Five-star Euro NCAP safety rating
The GLA45 is very quick
Weaknesses:
Competent but ordinary to drive when rivals offer more
Rear-seat space is tight
Slow-witted dual-clutch auto transmission
Is the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class better than the 2017 Volvo XC40?
The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA might have the more desirable badge, but it’s the Volvo XC40 that’s the more complete package: it feels better to drive, feels like a more modern and up-to-date product, and provides more luggage room.

The car is fantastic, the spec is brilliant but a wee bit pricy. It has everything you need in a car. Dont know anything I can compare it to.
