The only ‘problem’ of the Mercedes GLB. And it only happens in this model

He Mercedes GLB It is not just any model. The German SUV is a model that puts practicality ahead of design. This does not mean much less that he sins in the latter. But it is true that it dispenses with the curved lines of its brothers to offer a more comfortable experience to passengers.

Exclusive design

HE GLB is built on the same platform as the A class and that GLAbut it measures almost like a SUV Large size. Exceeds 4.6 meters in length. This, added to the 1.6 meters high from the first to the last pillar, it allows an enviable space in its interior for its competitors.

We can mount a third row of seats, with a space in them for occupants of up to 1.68 meters high. Without it, we will have up to 560 liters of cargo in his trunk. And attention: these are expandable up to 1,800 by folding down the second row.

Very complete equipment

On the other hand, nothing is missing in equipment. The most basic models already include LED headlights, automatic climate control, light and rain sensors, MBUX multimedia system with 7-inch screen, bluetooth, cruise control, 18-inch alloy wheels, metal roof bars, automatic tailgate, etc. .

Although, through the box, we can also add sliding panoramic roof, leather upholstery, electric seats, control of objects in blind spot, zenith vision system, automatic parking assistant, Head Up Display or adaptive cruise control.

Varied mechanical range

Another of its virtues can be found in the mechanical section. We have a wide catalog made up of gasoline and diesel units. The first are the Cap 180 de 136 CV, he GLB 200 with 163 CV and the GLB 250 units 224 CV. In diesel we have the GLB 200d with 150hp and the GLB 220d with 190hp. The two most powerful can only be associated with an all-wheel drive system 4Matic, While in the 220d it’s optional.

Engines that on the march have an excellent behavior. Some electrified version is missing, since models of these dimensions usually have very high consumption. But we are facing one of the most recommended models that Mercedes currently has.

The only problem of the Mercedes GLB

There is only one defect that those who have it underline. This is excess noise on diesel models. Rolling too much in the passenger compartment. But it more than makes up for it with its benefits and incredible driving experience. Your starting price: 40.150 euros.
