Three advantages offered by the Mercedes-Benz GLB
September 28 2020,
The Mercedes-Benz GLB SUV is new to the market, so customers are always in discovery mode with it. As they learn to discover it, they're seduced. It's understandable, because the advantages offered by this little SUV are multiple. Here are three that will give you an idea.
1 - Power and frugality
Today, across the industry, the standard is the small turbo engine. While these engines are often efficient in terms of power, they are not all economical. With the GLB, you get the best of Mercedes-Benz engineering. For instance, the 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine under the hood offers 221 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, enough to get 0-100 km/h under the seven-second mark. However, more importantly, this engine is frugal. On the highway, your average will stabilize below 7 L/100 km. Combined, you'll get a rating of between 7 and 8 liters, which is excellent.
2 - Seven-seat interior layout
With the GLB, you can enjoy a seven-seat configuration that no other product in this category offers. So for those who sometimes need to take young children on board, you get a third bench adapted to their size, saving you from having to buy a bigger and more expensive vehicle to do so.
3 - The MBUX system
The MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) multimedia system is one of the most impressive in the industry. And the company doesn't just reserve it for its more upscale models, as it's offered across the lineup. With it, user-friendly functions are multiple, such as this augmented reality approach with the navigation system. The latter shows directions, in 3D, on the central screen using the camera located at the front of the vehicle. Let's just say that it greatly simplifies the process.
