2025 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Recoda
Until now I am very satisfied with my car. Just an upgrade from my A-220. I had several M. Benz before……. Love my GLA.!…..
Not giving what it’s supposed to give
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.

Engine and Tranmission A+.
The engine and transmission are as advertised. The car is a little rocket, and the shifting is rocket fast. The combination of economy and speed is hard to beat, I don't know how the Germans do it. Consistently get high 20's combined, and the car is 3.9 0-60. The safety algorithms are not good, the car safety tech supercedes the human input, causing dangerous encounters regularly. The Burmester sound system is top notch. The manufacturing is less quality than expected from Europe, many nagging rattles inside the vehicle, even when brand new.

Can I Return It?
Where to start? Waited six months for delivery and was crazy excited when it arrived. Fully loaded with just about every option. After a week I despise the car. Turbo lag when you first accelerate...the $840 Burmester audio system is totally underwhelming...the Augmented Reality Navigation impresses friends but is distracting due to having to repeatedly take your eyes off the road to look at it...the MBUX is complicated. If I could return it I would in a heartbeat.
Beware of 2022 GLA Models
2022 GLA 250 models were manufactured during the 'chip crisis' and are without power seats. You get a $700 credit to make up for manual seats that are only found on the most budget of rental Hyundai's. Funny how dealers don't seem to mention that and that fact is never listed on a dealer website. Even on the original MSRP sticker. Stay away from 2022 or you'll end up with a luxury Hyundai
