Mercedes-Benz has introduced a new entry-level GLA variant exclusively for the Australian market, the GLA 200 City Edition. Despite its base status, this compact crossover boasts a comprehensive feature set including chrome accents, Progressive Line styling, and raised ground clearance.

Inside, premium amenities such as a panoramic sunroof, heated electric front seats with memory, keyless entry, and a 360-degree camera system come standard. Advanced driver assistance systems like active lane-keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control enhance safety, while a powerful 1.3-liter turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission delivers spirited performance.

Debuting in Australia, the new Mercedes-Benz GLA lineup offers a range of options for drivers seeking luxury and performance in a compact SUV. The base 200 City Edition boasts a 1.3L engine and starts at a driveaway price of AU$66,900, dropping to AU$63,900 after September.

This budget-friendly option sits alongside the GLA 250 4Matic, featuring a more powerful 2.0L engine and all-wheel drive for a sportier ride at AU$87,697.45. For those craving top-tier performance, the Mercedes-AMG GLA 35 4Matic takes the crown with a 2.0L turbocharged engine and a 0-60 mph time of just 5.2 seconds, all for AU$107,128.60.

Interestingly, a comparison with the US market reveals a price advantage for the GLA there. The base GLA 250 starts at US$43,000, with the AMG 35 reaching US$58,050. This highlights a potential price difference depending on your location.
