Launched: Mercedes-Benz GLA facelift
Be Young
Presented in 2013 for the first time, the GLA was introduced as a new compact SUV range to the A-class Mercedes line-up. Becoming considerably popular in China, USA, Germany and Great Britain, the manufacturer has made quite an impact as the GLA proves relatively small from the outside, yet is spacious in design.

Behalwe die hoekige, alombekende Geländewagen wat reeds in 1979 op die toneel verskyn het, en uiterlik nie maklik van die oer-model onderskei kan word nie, was daar die GLC koepee-tipe sportnutsvoertuig en ook die opvolger van die gewilde M-klas, die GLE.
