Following on from yesterday’s teaser video, here are the first images of the new Mercedes GLA-Class, which have wandered onto the internet as if by magic…
Looking like a pumped-up A-Class (because that’s all it is…), it shares the same Modular Front-drive Architecture platform, the GLA features rugged fender flares and sill extensions, along with a larger roof spoiler and diffuser than its more conventional sibling.
The model shown is the all-wheel-drive 155 kW (211 hp) GLA 250, which uses a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo engine mated to a 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission.
Due to be unveiled at this year’s Frankfurt Motor Show (September 10 to 22), pricing is rumoured to start at around £25,370 (€29,375).
