Prior to the introduction at the IAA in Frankfurt teaserde Mercedes back her land, but now the time has come: the fabric is from the GLA. Introducing the smallest SUV ever in Stuttgart.

The past two days were by Mercedes to sketch and a few vague video released, so we knew enough: the unveiling of the GLA is at hand. The production version is virtually identical to the concept that in april in Shanghai was unveiled, and no surprise.

The GLA measures 4417 x 1804 x 1494 mm, and in the first instance, as GLA 200 (156 hp), GLA 250 (211 hp). Dieselaars get the 2.2-liter four-cylinder as GLA 200 CDI (136 hp, 300 Nm) or GLA 220 CDI (170 hp, 350 Nm). If you want more punch, then you need to wait for the GLA 45 AMG.

The provisional fastest GLA, the 250 4MATIC (the switchable AWD system is optionally available on each of the GLA, except the 200), sprint in 6.5 seconds to one hundred km/h, reaches a peak of 235 km/h, and record an NEDC consumption of 7.1 litres per 100 km.

You go for the basisdiesel, then according to Mercedes 4,3 litres, with CO2 emissions of 114 grams. All motoriseringen are linked to manual zesbak, or a 7G-DCT dual-clutch automatic transmission.

With the advent of the GLA offers Mercedes up to five SUV model lines (GLA, GLK, ML, GL, G). Something for everyone so. The GLA comes in the trim levels Style, Urban and AMG, and has a CW value of 0,29 where Mercedes is apparently very proud of.

From march 2014, the GLA, at the Dutch Mercedesdealer. We wish you much fun with the 57 photos in the gallery!
