Until the AMG version arrives, the GLA 250 4MATIC is very much the GLA you're looking for, because it gets the alluring interior and attractive exterior that will draw buyers to this new GLA, but also wins an engine with a bit of get up and go, all-wheel drive and even an Off Road mode for those times when you're on a dirt road or driving to the snow.
There's more than enough power and torque here, in fact, for most people and only the kind of people who need their urban SUV to really explode off the lights will feel the need for more than 250 variant offers. The only real letdown here is the boot, which is quite shockingly small.

Stephen Corby
Contributing Journalist
Stephen Corby stumbled into writing about cars after being knocked off the motorcycle he’d been writing about by a mob of angry and malicious kangaroos. Or that’s what he says, anyway. Back in the early 1990s, Stephen was working at The Canberra Times, writing about everything from politics to exciting Canberra night life, but for fun he wrote about motorcycles.
After crashing a bike he’d borrowed, he made up a colourful series of excuses, which got the attention of the motoring editor, who went on to encourage him to write about cars instead. The rest, as they say, is his story.
Reviewing and occasionally poo-pooing cars has taken him around the world and into such unexpected jobs as editing TopGear Australia magazine and then the very venerable Wheels magazine, albeit briefly. When that mag moved to Melbourne and Stephen refused to leave Sydney he became a freelancer, and has stayed that way ever since, which allows him to contribute, happily, to CarsGuide.
