When the Mercedes-Benz GLB debuted in 2019, I was unsure of it at first. The boxy crossover had a big presence, but it seemed to occupy an unnecessary space between the tiny GLA and hot-selling GLC. With a higher starting price than the former and less …
The listed starting price for the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GLB, the only high-performance offering in this family, is $49,500. That’s expensive compared to more mainstream SUVs but priced about right in the AMG lineup of high-performance Benzes. But you can get that price much higher really, really …
In a world of SUV-coupes and all-electric Tesla pick-up trucks that hit 62mph in less than three seconds, a seven-seat Mercedes-Benz A-Class doesn’t actually seem that unreasonable. Clearly, someone at Merc had the same idea, as what you’re looking at is the new 2020 Mercedes-Benz …
The Mercedes-Benz GLB fell onto Brabus’ lap last summer, with the German tuner giving the compact SUV a makeover and a mildly boosted engine in the 250 specification. If you were impressed by Brabus’ GLB 250, that precise car is being offered for sale for …
Eager to capture younger buyers on a smaller budget, Mercedes-Benz currently offers four subcompact entry-level models. There’s the A-Class sedan, CLA-Class four-door coupe, and two SUVs, the GLA and GLB. CarBuzz recently tested the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GLA 35 and the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GLB 35, the mid-performance …
Mercedes USA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) are conducting two separate recalls for certain units of the GLB. The first recall targets 2,362 units of the 2020-2021 GLB 250, made from May 13, 2019, to September 15, 2020, as their wheel arch …
The Mercedes-Benz GLA and GLB classes share a common platform, powertrain options and multiple interior pieces. They’re awfully similar, but you don’t have to look at their specs to guess correctly that the boxier GLB provides more utility than the hatchback-like GLA. And if you do …
Most subcompact luxury SUVs come across as a bit cynical; built to a price on less sophisticated bones than its pricier, more refined siblings. It sure seems like people buy them cause they can’t make the payment on one of those pricier, more refined siblings they …
We’ve gotten our hands on the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB crossover a couple of times now, and in each instance we’ve found new ways to appreciate it. Not only does it offer more space than the GLA with which it shares most of its fundamentals, but it …
Does the world need another SUV? Probably not, but at least the Mercedes GLB offers something a little different. It’s similar in size to the GLC, but unlike its more expensive sibling, the GLB can be equipped with seven seats. This means it’s likely to appeal …
The Mercedes GLB 220 d doesn’t quite score a direct hit on the Discovery Sport, but it’s certainly the most competent rival yet for Land Rover’s baby seven-seater. It offers strong performance and refinement, along with a better-finished cabin and more coherent in-car tech, but you …
