Ride around the Bay Area in the small luxury SUV that's great and not just good like other crossovers. The new 2023 GLB SUV, found at your Bay Area Mercedes-Benz dealer in Walnut Creek near the Broadway Plaza shopping center, puts the fun back in functional.
The GLB has rugged looks in all the right places, while the crisp, upright lines minimize overhangs. There are six wheel designs ranging between 18 and 20 inches. Illumination is an emphasis for this SUV that flashes standard LED headlamps and taillamps, along with LED Daytime Running Lamps. Front foglamps guide Walnut Creek drivers through the Bay Area fog with their GLB.
The GLB houses five people in its standard configuration. There's seating for up to seven passengers despite its compact build. Flex between 22 to 62 cubic feet of cargo space if you're tossing in luggage for a Bay Area trip or you're stowing more bags from errands at the Broadway Plaza shopping center in Walnut Creek. Recline the second-row seatbacks or fold them flat with a 40/20/40-split feature. The EASY-ENTRY feature widens the way for Walnut Creek families to get seated in the 50/50 split third row.
Multi-hue motifs and soothing themes are included with 64-color LED ambient lighting. The supportive seats can come in a spectrum of upholstery options for Walnut Creek SUV shoppers, who also have their choice from a pair of natural-grain woods. There are G-Class accents for the aluminum dash and door. Some cabin amenities include a panorama roof, ventilated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
A 2.0-liter inline-4 twin-scroll turbocharged engine pumps out 221 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The 8-speed transmission works with four DYNAMIC SELECT drive modes and can feature paddle shifting or automatic gear changes along I-680. Available 4MATIC® all-wheel drive varies the front/rear torque split to optimize stability and handling along Highway 24 between Walnut Creek and Oakland. This Mercedes-Benz SUV is also fuel-efficient, earning 32 miles per gallon on Bay Area highways.
Dual 7-inch screens are standard, while 10.25-inch displays are optional. Both vividly present multimedia and reconfigurable instruments. Customize themes and change settings through the central display touchscreen. Through MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience), the GLB listens to commands. Say, 'Hey, Mercedes' to get started. MB Navigation is controlled through this intelligent voice system. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ give Walnut Creek GLB owners smartphone access on rides around the Bay Area.
Blind Spot Assist with Exit Warning Assist, Adaptive Cruise, Active Brake Assist, Attention Assist, and a Rearview Camera are all standard GLB safety features.
