Mercedes-Benz Malaysia announces the availability of the new Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 4MATIC designed for both sporty agility and lifestyle versatility. As the entry point into the Mercedes-Benz SUV family, the new locally-assembled GLA 250 4MATIC brings fresh design and latest technology to the forefront of innovation and style.
The GLA 250 now features 4MATIC variable all-wheel drive with torque-on-demand system.
Excess torque is transferred to the rear axle as needed. Especially on wet roads, drivers can feel the improved driving and directional stability.
The vehicle includes a 2-litre four-cylinder unit with eight-speed DCT dual-clutch transmission. It can achieve 0-100 km/h acceleration in 6.8 seconds thanks to 165 kW (224 hp) and a maximum torque of 350 Nm.
To further reduce consumption, the petrol engine in the new GLA 250 4MATIC is now electrified. The vehicle has an additional 48-volt on-board power supply for the belt-driven starter-generator.
Its briefly available additional power of 10 kW supports agility when starting or is used for quick boosting. The starter-generator also increases comfort: in addition to low-vibration and low-noise engine starting, it also enables coasting with the combustion engine switched off.
Exterior
The GLA 250 4MATIC with AMG Line exterior features a diamond radiator grille with pins in
chrome and bonnet with discreetly suggested power domes which underlines the self-confident appearance.
The redesigned rear bumper now comes with a diffuser, enhancing the vehicle’s sporty exterior even further. The front apron is complemented by a silver simulated underguard,
adding to the vehicle’s commanding and confident presence.
The GLA 250 4MATIC has a modernised light signature featuring powerful LED High Performance front headlamps equipped with Adaptive Highbeam Assist and LED rear lights.
