GLB's Final Hurrah: A Comfortable, Yet Underpowered SUV

Description

The Mercedes-Benz GLB, a premium small-to-medium SUV with seven seats, is nearing the end of its current generation. Launched in 2019, it offered an upscale alternative to mainstream seven-seaters. A mid-life update in 2023 brought minor cosmetic changes and mild-hybrid power to some variants, but not the entry-level GLB 250. Priced at $67,600, it comes with standard features like 19-inch alloy wheels and dual 10.25-inch screens. However, its interior is showing age with smaller displays and a less intuitive steering wheel. The 1.3-liter turbo engine feels underpowered, making the mid-spec GLB 250 with its more powerful 2.0-liter turbo engine and mild-hybrid assistance a better choice.
