The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA doesn't just deliver on performance. It also provides remarkable fuel economy ratings. The new GLA allows you to enjoy all of the refinement and luxury of Mercedes-Benz vehicles without having to sacrifice fuel economy.
Even the impressive AMG models deliver on efficiency.

As you can see, the entry-level GLA provides exceptional efficiency but every model gives you impressive fuel economy numbers, particularly on the highway where no GLA model averages over 10 L per 100 km.
- Standard 4MATIC All-Wheel Drive in Every Model
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLA provides the traction and stability of 4MATIC all-wheel drive in every model. Moreover, as you can see with the fuel economy numbers provided previously, you won't have to worry about fuel consumption even as you enjoy the confidence of standard all-wheel drive.
The Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC all-wheel drive system is designed to provide the highest level of performance in any situation. It allows you to climb up steep snow-covered hills while also ensuring optimal traction when going around corners. And when the road is clear, it provides the necessary torque distribution to ensure the highest level of traction.
