Mercedes has recently updated its seven-seat family SUV, but is the new GLB even better than the previous version? In this video Rory Reid spends some time with the car to find out.
The GLB sits between the GLA and the GLC with its more boxy and upright shape adding space for a third row of seats. This makes the GLB both a practical and premium option. So, what’s new with this latest model? Well, the GLB has a revised look at the front and the back, the latest tech including a huge ‘superscreen’ across the dashboard and for the first time an all-electric version will be offered alongside petrol hybrid alternatives. Rory takes us on a tour of some of the design highlights before checking out the swanky interior to discover if it would impress a large family looking for both style and comfort. But there are some key questions which need to be answered like how far can the electric GLB travel between charges and how much will it cost to buy? You'll have to watch to the end where Rory reveals these all-important numbers. If you enjoyed this video give it a like and let Rory know your thoughts in the YouTube comments.
