The new 2020 Mercedes GLB 250 4MATIC makes owning a Benz a reality, especially with his more than affordable starting price. Its low price still packs in luxuries like a power liftgate, power front seat memory and dual climate zones, along with of course, the iconic Mercedes Benz name and reputation.
The GLB 250 4MATIC, is not your typical SUV, with its 221 turbo horses, variable all-wheel drive, flexible seating for up to seven, and the advanced MBUX voice assistant.
The standard dual digital, 7-inch presents reconfigurable instruments and multimedia visuals with vivid clarity. The central display is a touchscreen, so it’s easy to access features, change settings and customize themes
Compact outside, the GLB’s accommodations go big on the inside. The 40/20/40-split 2nd-row seatbacks adjust to seven positions or fold flat. The ‘Easy Entry’ feature eases access to the available 50/50-split 3rd-row seat. With all the rear seats down. Touchpads on the steering wheel and console let you access the in-dash screens
Just because it’s an SUV doesn’t mean the engine doesn’t have power to get up and go. The advanced, efficient 2.0L inline-4 engine’s twin-scroll turbo pumps up power to 221 hp. With all 258 lb-ft of torque on tap from just 1,800 rpm, you get quick response off the line, and for passing, merging and climbing. The clever dual-clutch 8-speed offers automatic or a paddle-shifted. Your car. Your choice. With no fewer than four drive modes, the Dynamic Select mode lets you tune the drivetrain, steering feel, and available adaptive suspension.
