On the market since 2015, the GLA receives numerous—primarily aesthetic—modifications this year. New colours, remodelled front and rear ends, new wheels and redesigned interior gauges will help this little SUV set itself apart from the BMW X1, Audi Q3 and others. The GLA 250 4MATIC and AMG GLA 45 possess a turbocharged, 2.0L four-cylinder engine combined with a seven-speed automatic gearbox that transmits power to all four wheels.
