Used 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB is a small entry-level luxury SUV with seating for five. An optional third row of seats expands capacity to seven, though those additional passengers will have to be very small.

It comes in two trim levels: the base GLB 250 and the GLB 250 4Matic, which adds all-wheel drive. Both use a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (221 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque) connected to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Standard feature highlights include LED headlights, a power liftgate, simulated leather upholstery, 40/20/40-split rear seats that slide and recline, Mercedes' MBUX infotainment system, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking is also included.

Several bundled option packages are available. Among them, we suggest springing for the Premium package that adds blind-spot monitoring, larger 10.25-inch displays, auto-dimming and power-folding mirrors, a hands-free liftgate and keyless entry. The Driver Assistance package is also worth adding. It comes with adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, evasive steering assist, emergency stop assist and active speed control.

Among the GLB 250's stand-alone options, go for the adaptive dampers if you want slightly sportier handling. Other notable add-ons include leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and a premium Burmester sound system.

Which GLB-Class trim does Edmunds recommend?

For a lot of shoppers, the base GLB 250 is a great choice. Naturally, the GLB 250 4Matic is a smart alternative for those who need added traction for slick-weather regions. To either one, we suggest adding the Premium and Driver Assistance packages for their safety and convenience items.
