The GLB is very attractive, inside and out. It has a very smooth and pleasant ride. And has been excellent in the snow. It has many upscale features as well. I’ve owned my GLB for 5 weeks and it’s already been in the shop twice. The first time I brought it in was because the car wouldn’t let me unlock it to get in. Once I was in, it said that it couldn’t detect my key and wouldn’t start. If the key battery is dead, you’re supposed to be notified on the dashboard supposedly. That never happened. I now have to take my car back in because the trunk isn’t closing properly. The power litigate closes and latches the trunk, but it then immediately unlatches. A few other disappointments are that I gave up some safety features in my Mazda. You’d think a car thats $20,000 more would have those standard, but no. The premium sound system isn’t nearly as good as the BOSE in my Mazda either. Also, the shifting can be jerky from time to time.

I got my GLB 250 with many of the optional features. So added up it’s pretty much the price of a GLC. That said, I have so much fun with this car. I’m a big dude (6’2) and there is so much leg room and head room that I’m still surprised about it to this day. It drives way smoother than I expected. I can drive sharp curves at 20mph and I’ll be fine! Bumps? Easy, I don’t feel them as much. I also have seat kinetics which moves the seat to hug my body and to counteract the turns. Mileage and speed is pretty dang good for a middle class SUV. They said 0-60 in around 6.6 seconds but sometimes it feels even faster than that. You can speed off freeway ramps and merge with no problems. I got the interior lighting for my GLB and it makes everything come alive at night. I highly recommend it. It makes your night drives a little more fun and joyful. That said, easily I would give this car at least a 9/10. It’s fun to drive, night interior, A LOT of leg room and space, drives smooth and fast, and it looks pretty sick at night!

A nice blend of space, tech and value

As with any family, with an additional kid we had to upgrade from my coupe. We were searching for a SUV that had space for kids and a dog, provided the latest tech and was efficient enough for California gas prices. After doing a month of research, the GLB fit the badge very well. We liked the look and the interior tech. We have had it for a month now. The mileage is as advertised. Not the most performance oriented engine but it can be zippy enough. We got parking assist which is really for city driving and parking. Music system is decent. All this at a price for a loaded regular brand. It’s been a good ride so far.

The usability an and ease to park to a 10/10. Not to mention if you or your guests are tall this is comfortable hauler. It’s main drawback is the transmission. If you have never had a Dual clutch auto, this one will frustrate you. It’s a bit clunky in 1st gear, sometimes it can make up its mind if it want to stay in gear or not however once rolling along it’s fine. My hope is they come out with an over the air update as it seems to be a tuning thing and not a bad part. All things considered, we have a BMW X3 , which we loved until we got the GLB. The ride and “greenhouse” is far superior and will be selling the x3 very soon.

Compact SUV with Third Row and Modern Interior

Purchased the 2021 GLB because I was looking for a compact-sized SUV with third row seating for kids. The GLB also has a modern interior, I like the turbine-style air vents and the "surfboard" infotainment and instrument cluster. Despite what others have said about navigating the infotainment, I don't find it hard or cumbersome to use. However, one nuisance is having to scroll to the radio presets every now and then on the instrument display, sometimes it doesn't save the last setting. I also like the large panoramic sunroof although that's a $1500 option. The engine is peppy and the car is nimble (for an SUV) and has great class gas mileage. There are a few annoyances though: 1) The 2nd row seats don't fold all the way down IF the seats are moved to the front most position (the headrest hits the front seats), this makes it even more difficult to climb into the 3rd row; 2) Android Auto and Apply Carplay doesn't take up the full 10.25 inch infotainment screen, Google Maps only displays 7 inches; 3) Fake air vents are tacky.
