The Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Gets Wide Range of Improvements for 2017

2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Release Date

Cars like the Mercedes-Benz CLA and Mercedes-Benz GLA are quickly growing in popularity because Mercedes-Benz somehow keeps improving them without requiring a large increase in price. This could be contributed to the fact that the compact SUV and 4-door coupe markets are still new and there is a lot of room for growth, but we think it is because Mercedes-Benz is at the top of its game. The company recently hinted at a 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 release date, which appears will be much more anticipated than the GLA usually is. The reason for the increase in popularity is due to an new technology, much of which will come standard with the often-overlooked GLA250.

2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Engine

The GLA250 is going to come with a 2.0-liter, direct-injected, turbocharged, 4-cylinder engine. With this well-balanced engine, 2018 horsepower are sent to the wheels alongside 258 lb.-ft of torque. Of course, if you need more power, you can find it in the GLA45 AMG, but the reason 208 horsepower is impressive is simply because of the fact that it is a standard feature in the base model GLA. This is great for your wallet because you can save money and still have fun.

If you though the engine was impressive, consider the 7-speed automatic transmission that comes with the GLA. With 7 speeds, the GLA improves efficiency, ride comfort, and performance. If efficiency is your end game, you can enjoy 35 miles per gallon on the highway when driving conservatively. If you just want to go fast, you can do that too because the dual-clutch 7-speed transmission will help you get from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 7.1 seconds.
