CarGurus Analysis: 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA

Summary
With 108 currently listed for sale and an average price of $19,390, 39.8% of 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA 4.43 / 5 stars.
88.9% of 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA stands out as a small luxury crossover that leans more toward style and performance than outright practicality. It was part of the first-generation GLA lineup, which was known for its low-slung, sleek shape and its relatively small cargo area. For buyers who wanted a premium badge in a compact package, that combination gave the GLA a distinctive personality.
What made the 2020 model appealing was its turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 208 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Mercedes offered it in front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive forms, giving shoppers some flexibility. The model also benefited from earlier updates that added Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with a standard 8-inch infotainment screen, so it felt reasonably modern even near the end of its run.
At the same time, the 2020 GLA had clear compromises. Its cargo space was limited, and the first-generation model was described as very small inside, especially for families. It also lacked the roomier, more SUV-like feel that later versions would bring, so its appeal was strongest for buyers who valued a premium interior, compact dimensions, and a sporty look over maximum utility.

It’s a pretty car. Drives well, no noise in the outside while driving. It’s very basic for a Mercedes but still very nice. No sun roof. For my budget.

This car is the perfect step into luxury. It’s so sleek, powerful, and also great on gas. It’s pricey, but worth it. It has most everything, I absolutely love the double sunroof with redacting shade. The stereo system is too of the line..AMAZING! I’m still finding cool stuff about mine. (I purchased a 2020 4-matic on Jan 12th 2021. This review definitely helped me decide. ) I would compare it to the BMW X1 and to the Infinity SUV.

Owners consistently praise its stylish design, luxurious feel, and performance, and many also like the features and stereo system.

At 68.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report before you commit, then prioritize any listing with clean records and consistent maintenance. A pre-purchase inspection is worth it here, especially if you’re comparing cars with similar prices but different condition histories. Focus on signs of wear, accident repairs, and whether the car still feels tight and well-kept on a test drive.

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile options.
- Deal availability: 36.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 703 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 10.08% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 68.8% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $18,037, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA's resale value?
The current average of $18,111 sits slightly below last year's $20,142.
That price decline suggests the model has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right price. For you, that means the biggest resale advantage comes from choosing a clean, well-kept example and avoiding overpaying today. A lower entry price can make it easier to limit your loss when you eventually sell.
Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.43/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 36.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 68.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 10.08% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.43/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $22,631, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $18,111 average.
- It was completely redesigned into a more conventional small SUV.
The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2020 is the stronger starting point because it costs less and is easier to shop for a deal. If you’re willing to spend more for the redesigned shape and a more traditional SUV feel, the 2021 is the better secondary path.
