I’m obsessed with my new car. I love that it’s very sporty, still an SUV, without feeling like a soccer Mom! The interior is awesome as I love what they did with the screens in 2021 models!

The GLA250 AMG35 is quick and FUN!

I loved my 2019 GLA, but wanted more speed. The GLA 35 gives me that. The new body style, interior, and technology are impressive. The AMG grill is fierce, as are the 21 inch wheels. The pick up and handling are smooth, but also exciting. The leather interior is beautiful, the seats are comfortable, and the heated and cooled seats are great! Getting in and out of the seats is easier than the 2019, which helps with a bad knee. I still do love my puddle lights! The large center console has a split opening which is much nicer than the single door. Even the glove box is improved. The new technology (touch screens, display, and ambient lighting) are beautiful, and are not too tall, as I’ve seen in other makes. I am still learning the touch pad and menus, but they seem to make sense. One thing I miss is my sunglasses holder! Overall, I am enjoying this vehicle immensely!

This vehicle will surprise you it handles like a car and if you're standing in front of it looks like a SUV she's really Thrifty on gas on the highway I get between 38 and 41 Mi to the gallon on the street 29 to 33 miles to the gallon the first one is at the speed limit the seats are very comfortable I could drive longer because of the lumbar setup for the front seats not to mention all the safety features when she finds you getting tired she tells you to take a break she's like a good wife need I say more

Mercedes-Benz Forever

I will say that Mercedes-Benz motorcars convey a distinction of character and quality such as no other. Appreciating a special experience driving my 2021 GLA 4Matic SUV and the interpretation of Mercedes Class structures while understanding the timeless heritage ingrained within the build, engineering, and impeccable materials. The integrity that silently secures the confidence and performance of these superb automobiles. A free-spirited model that may be a smaller Mercedes-Benz yet is all that the three-pointed star delivers. Swift agility, Refined integrity, Intuitive cockpit, a body crafted to behold with grace and beauty amid the banal-cloned motoring culture. Never ordinary and always a Mercedes-Benz.

Why buy a more expensive Mercedes when you can get this vehicle with panoramic roof , heated seats , upgrade sound system , satellite radio , heated seats , premium package and rear adjustable seats for under $40,000 . Sounds like a great price for a fully loaded Mercedes Benz , of course this is after you get a discount which you can get significant one if you know what your doing
