With its diminutive size and nimble demeanor, the GLA-class feels more like a hatchback than many of its crossover competitors. As the smallest and cheapest of Mercedes-Benz’s SUVs, its interior is neither as luxurious nor as spacious as you might expect for a vehicle with the prestigious three-pointed-star badge. Plenty of high-end technology features are on offer, but the GLA has gone a while without updates. That means it’s less appealing than the newer A-class sedan, which boasts a more attractive design inside and out. A new, fully modernized version of the GLA-class should arrive sometime within the next year.
