The new Mercedes-Benz glb250 suv comes with a third-row seat and a spacious cargo area. It provides plenty of space for your entire family. This makes it an ideal choice for families looking to upgrade their SUV but still want to keep costs down.
The GLB 250 4Matic's 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine produces 221 horsepower, and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automated transmission.
This engine offers good acceleration and road manners. Even with its seven-seater capacity, it is fuel efficient. It is rated for 23 mpg in the city, 30 on the highway and 26 with front-wheel driving. The AWD version's mileage drops from 30/19 mpg to 19/30. However, it is still far better than most other SUVs, including those from BMW and Audi.
GLB interiors are spacious and comfortable enough for up seven passengers. It offers ample headroom, shoulder room and legroom. The rear seat can be folded to facilitate loading or reversing. The door openings are tall, the visibility is excellent and it's a quiet cabin.
There is also ample storage in the cargo area, and a lot of it can be folded flat for easy access to it. The third row seat is available as an option, which provides a huge amount of additional cargo space. This option, however, is quite expensive.
Mercedes-Benz is known for its safety features, and GLB 250 4Matic does not disappoint. It comes with several safety features that should keep you safe in the event of an accident, including front and side airbags and an advanced crash-avoidance system.
GLBs also have a variety of features that protect your family. For example, the active safety package or lane-departure alert system. The latter is an especially useful feature for those who wish to avoid driving too close to the car in front when navigating curves.
Mercedes-Benz has a long history of offering some of the best warranties in the industry, and the GLB 250 4Matic has its own three-year/unlimited-mileage warranty. It isn't as generous as warranties offered by competitors but it offers a higher level of coverage and is priced competitively for a vehicle this high.
Aside from its standard warranty, the GLB also has a variety of service plans that can be used to pay for fixed-price servicing. These plans are based on how much you use your SUV and how often you take it in for service, and they can be spread out over monthly payments or paid up front.
The GLB 250 4Matic is the top-rated car for Euro NCAP crash testing and has an excellent safety rating by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. In fact, the GLB 250 4Matic scored highest among all small SUVs.
