I had the 2019 GLA 250 and in 2021 upgraded to the AMG GLA 45. The difference was enormous. This is such a fast car that you really need to be a good driver with lots of experience to handle it responsibly. it’s definitely tempting to speed constantly because the car wants to GO!! No complaints other than I wish the seats were more comfortable. By the time you get all the upgrades you are looking at 70k+. There’s no such thing as a $250 monthly lease unless you put at least 30k down, so who ever came up with the economics on these vehicles hasn’t bought one. But compared to the cost of other AMG’s that go slower but cost twice as much, this is a great value. The way the engine sounds is probably my most favorite aspect of this car. The handling is incredible, brakes are sharp, love the auto high beams and the cascading effect when they turn on. I havnt seen another one of these on the road so I like that it’s rare and I can find it in the parking lot very easily. I actually get 30 miles per gallon on the hwy if I stay in comfort mode and don’t go over 70. Lots of high tech do-dads that actually improve your driving experience. Sticks to the road like Velcro, I added a sub woofer (how can you not) with a powerful amp, tinted the windows really dark, put all weather tires on it, my husband calls it “The Beast!” It definitely is!!

Got this car for my wife about 18 months ago, trading in a BMW X2 Xdrive when she fell in love with it. Pros: Beautiful car; best luxury and beautiful interior in the category out there, nice tech, powerful motor, excellent torque and handling. Cons: Uncomfortable hard seats (compared with my other car, an Acura RDX); transmission jerking and clunkiness particularly at low speeds. Heard this is mostly due to a normal issue with dual clutch transmissions, which I was not accustomed to, and will eventually get used to it. But coming from an expensive luxury car, MB would have done better with it. Hard cheap plastics in door panels and B pillars. Bumpy ride. Very noisy motor, it sounds like an old crappy coffee maker machine. Sound system is not even a joke. The depreciation for this car is a huge disappointment. The BMW X2 did not have this kind of beauty and luxury, but definitively was a way better balanced and performer in the road. Well..... will enjoy it a couple of years more while the value gets near the debt, and will get something else as soon as my wife gets bored with it. Update: after 30 months and only 15k miles on the odometer: 1) wiper and washer motors broke down, 2) the driver seat cheap MBTex ripped itself (no abuse or misuse, we are very careful with our cars), 3) the fuel door does not close. That is with so little use, imagine 3or 4 yrs from now and with warranty expired! No way, The love is over, already traded in and got rid of the thing. The lesson was: if you want a Mercedes, go to Cs and up, do not waste your money with the entry level cheap models.

Turned in my beloved '19 GLA on the 2021 due to space concerns. The Good: ride quality (no longer feel like my joints are being dislocated when hitting a pothole) seat comfort phenomenal MBUX entertainment system (it's really easy to figure out, so don't listen to the haters) MUCH more interior space increased visibility edgy front grill ambient lighting augmented video navigation many high tech features acceleration The Not-So-Good: substandard audio system sound as compared to previous generation (upgrade to the Bermester sound system) gone is the fun, rally racer, almost WRX quality ride - it's now a true compact SUV

I am not impressed by this vehicle. My S clinked on me and I had to buy sthing in a cinch. I wanted a Tesla but decided to stay with Benz for one last try. This car could not have been built in Germany. I know the cheaper models aren’t. This seem like it was made in Detroit at the old Ford factory. Not fast, speakers suck, takes a few to respond. The app sucks as well. Remote start doesn’t respond every time. For what they charge a month it should start whenever I think abt it. Just a poorly made vehicle that they charge Benz price for American quality. Stick with the upper models. Oh, one good thing is it doesn’t cost much to fill up- it ok on gas.
