What are the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB trim options?

You’ll have 3 different trim options to choose from in the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB. They include the 2021 MB GLB 250, GLB 250 4MATIC®*, and of course the Mercedes-AMG® GLB 35. If you’re interested in the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB, then you’ll have to pick which one suits you best. So, let’s get started!

Power & performance of the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB trims

If you’re searching primarily for power and performance, then you’ll probably end up choosing the AMG® trim. Not only does this model have a more powerful engine, but it gives the GLB a quicker acceleration time. However, if you’re more interested in the GLB for its cargo space or reasonable price, then you may end up choosing one of the two other trims in the GLB. Power-wise, you’ll find the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB 250 has 221 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This is the same power of the 250 4MATIC®*, and they both can accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 6.9 seconds.

However, the AMG® trim does indeed bring more power to the table, so it shouldn’t be surprising to find it has 302 hp and 295 lb.-ft. of torque, enabling it to accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 5.1 seconds.

  • AMG® Performance 4MATIC®* variable all-wheel-drive
