Mercedes-Benz GLB Class, 2019 - present
Finally, more than ten years later, the Mercedes company introduced us to the successor to the GLK Mercedes called GLB. The letter B at the back tells us that this is a compact SUV that matches the size of a B-Class Mercedes - not the smallest, but small. As you know, such cars now enjoy world or at least European fame - they are the most coveted class cars. And GLB Mercedes aims to please everyone - housewives, businessmen, nature lovers, city dwellers, both young and old. We really like the design of the car! How great that the Germans did not decorate this crossover and left it angled shapes, which gives it exclusivity in the crowded crossover market. Therefore, the little GLB looks a bit like a luxurious GLS or an imposing G-Class Mercedes that has been enjoying fame for many decades. While the GLB is not a real SUV, the small rear and front overhangs, as well as the ability to order versions with permanent all-wheel drive and an off-road package, allow this car to compete with SUVs such as the Range Rover Evoque. Despite its small dimensions, the new Mercedes can be equipped with three rows of seats. The interior of the car, like all Mercedes in recent years, is excellent - basically the interior style is very similar to that of the A, B and CLA class Mercedes. True, the GLB interior design features slightly tighter lines with accentuated aluminum details on the front panel and tight horizontal door handles. It is possible to order an "energizing" package that optimizes the car's interior according to the owner's mood. This system, in communication with the smartwatch, knows the driver's condition - for example, how well he slept and what his stress level is measured by heart rate parameters. Based on these data, the car will adjust the cabin temperature, lighting, massage functions and audio system to ensure maximum well-being of the driver. In addition, the car can be equipped with autonomous driving features such as deceleration, acceleration and driving in traffic jams, as well as cruise control capable of slowing the car in corners and returning to its original position in a straight line.
