The perfect all-rounder for families. Mercedes has clearly made a mistake in setting in the appropriate pricing policy, since it had to slot it between Gla and Glc. I am a car engineer and I have to say that despite being based on a smaller platform the Glb should definitely cost at least 10 grant more than the Glc. Get one before prices skyrocket!

This is my first Mercedes Benz. By way of comparison I owed, all new, three Jeep Cherokees/Grand Cherokees (1988,1994, 2000), two Ford Escapes (2009,2012) , and a turbo VW beetle (2004), and a Chevrolet Z-06 Corvette (2004). The workmanship on the GLB (2020) is superlative and way above my other cars. I opted for a number of options, including the AMG package and the larger flat screen dash. I mentioned those for a couple of reasons, hereinafter. The AMG package doesn't, in the 2000 model, provide any additional horsepower. It does, however, provide for different styling, drilled rotors, larger wheels, and other items. Whilst the larger wheels are, in my view, better looking you will need to get snow tires as the AMG tires are not all season. So, if you are going to be using it in a snow environment plan ahead for that expense. Another downside to the AMG package is that the GLB factory mudflaps will not fit the AMG model. I had to use generic items and make them fit. I am 6'4" so the interior dimensions were important. I fit better in the GLB than the GLC. Moreover the visual sight lines from the GLB are also better. That being said, the driver's cockpit is a bit cramped for me on a lengthy drive. Although the seat has infinite adjustment you still have to contend with the steering wheel and the center console. In long drives I found that the edge of the center console strikes my leg about 4 inches below my right knee, and the door handle is at the same point on the left. It's difficult to move to a comfortable place regardless of where the steering wheel is placed (tilt & telescope). Also, I cannot see the complete speedometer or tachometer because the steering wheel, at my height, is blocking my view. I don't understand why Mercedes Benz does not allow the flat screen to be switched, putting the infotainment system directly in front of the driver and the speedometer/tachometer in the middle (like a Mini Cooper). I purposely bought the heads up display which solves some of those problems. It has sufficient adjustment for my height. On summer blend gas, with summer tires, I can obtain low 30mpg at 75 to 80 mph on expressways, and mid 20s with winter blend fuel, and snows. City driving, regardless of fuel or tires is low to mid 20s. Because it is a turbo, 91 octane is required. Turbo lag is not terrible. More annoying is when driving in the "comfort " transmission setting, the upshifts are terrible. You need to really accelerate to overcome the, in my view, lag time on upshifts. I found switching to "sport" in the city eliminates that issue altogether. Cargo space is great if you are carrying loose sand but, as an example, my golf clubs won't fit without one on the backseats down. Likewise, the roof rails look good but there are no crossmembers so unless you build or find something aftermarket anything narrower than the rails will be resting on the roof. Last, I tried to find the fuse panel inside the passenger compartment to wire my Valentine v1 and a dash camera. Despite where the owner's manual indicated the fuse panel is in the passenger compartment, it is yet to be found. Overall I am pleased with the car. I've only 5,000 miles so reliably hasn't been tested.
Super comfortable and nice!

Like most new cars, it takes a while to navigate the electronics, but that long, PC-type terminal of a dashboard and the detailed interior lets you know your in a Benz! Average 27 mpg!
