6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score9.3/10
Comfort Score9.3/10

City Driving

The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Excellent ground clearance handles speed breakers and potholes with ease.

Highway Performance

With 188 bhp and 400 Nm, overtaking at highway speeds is effortless. Strong diesel torque of 400 Nm makes highway driving relaxed, especially in higher gears.

Ride & Comfort

Independent rear suspension provides a plush ride, absorbing bumps well. High ground clearance gives confidence over rough patches and unpaved roads. Premium cabin insulation keeps NVH levels low for a refined experience. 427L boot space is adequate for weekend trips.

"Mercedes GLA Is Powerful, Compact And Stylish: The Mercedes GLA is an impressive car. The Mercedes grill and stylish lines make it look sporty and luxurious. It has decent fuel efficiency, but not mind-blowing. I get around 12-14 kilometers per liter in the city and 16-18 kilometers per liter on the highway. The cabin feels spacious for a compact SUV. The seats are comfortable, soft. It is a joy to drive in the city. Being a Mercedes, it comes with a premium price tag."

"Was unsure at first but now a great choice: This was my entry into the luxury segment. I owned a Jeep Compass for 4 years, and it gave up on me mechanically, so I was looking for my next car and stumbled upon the GLA. My budget was 50-60 lakhs, and GLA fit in. The 2L diesel is phenomenal, and the car returns great efficiency with performance. The space is similar to my compass, but it's great for the city. It's tech-laden with the latest MBUX, also."

"The Amazing Ride Comfort: I bought this car and its about 2 years now and i just really love this car. Mercedes is knows for its comfort and aggression. The GLA is just way too good if we talk about the comfort or the ride quality. This car has just a very powerful engine which i feel as i don't have to think while overtaking other cars or touching high speeds. Even if u drive at 160-180 you won't feel that you are driving at such high speed because of its comfort. In city it provides a decent mileage but on highways , it just way too good. Service cost is not that much as u only have to pay a nominal amount considering you own a mercedes. The re-sale value of the car is also preety good as."

"GLA: Fuel economy is poor across the range. City driving returns single-digit figures on most petrol models."

"Solid Performer But High Price: This elegant five-seater SUV has a great style and solid performance, making it enjoyable to drive. The exterior and interior are both quite luxurious but the rear seat is not as comfortable as the front and the price is costly. The features are excellent, the engine is well refined, and the steering is lovely also the Mercedes-Benz Gla diesel engine is incredibly reliable and efficient, and it offers an absolutely smooth and absorbing ride."

"Mercedes GLA Is A Classy Compact SUV: I have been driving the Me­rcedes-Benz GLA for some time­ now. The car looks stylish on the outside and fee­ls luxurious inside. It is one of the most affordable­ options in its category, offering great value­ for money. The GLA provides a smooth and comfortable­ driving experience­, making long trips enjoyable. Howeve­r, I have noticed its fuel e­fficiency could improve, and the cargo space­ feels limited compare­d to some rival models. Overall, the­ GLA delivers a classy and pleasant driving e­xperience."

"Flawless Driving Experience Of GLA: The Mercedes-Benz GLA I purchased from the Chennai showroom has been a fantastic addition to my life. The GLA has really appealing sleek and fashionable design. Every drive is fun because to the opulent and comfy inside with premium materials. Impressive are the advanced characteristics including panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, and big touchscreen infotainment system. Great driving experience is offered by the car's strong engine and flawless handling. One disadvantage is the little back legroom. Still, the GLA has made my weekly trips and weekend drives quite opulent."

"Mercedes-Benz GLA Never Fails To Impress: The Mercedes-Benz GLA is a compact yet powerful SUV. The GLA is my ride or die. Imagine cruising through the streets of Bangalore, feeling like a total boss. The GLA has sleek design and plush interior make every drive feel like a VIP experience. And let me tell you, it is not just all about looks, this baby packs some serious punch, the 2.0 litre engine generates 400 Nm of torque . Whether I am hitting up the coolest spots in town or escaping to the hills for a weekend getaway, the GLA never fails to impress."

"BMW X1 Engine Offers Everything You Expect: It provides premium features and the interior quality of GLA is absolutely amazing with the sporty look, it is better than BMW X1 but the exterior look is not like a luxury car. The diesel engine that i have offers everything that we expect from a strong turbo diesel engine and i love the performance of the engine with very effortless to drive but the second row is not good."
