Reviews SummaryDesigned for Europe’s narrow city streets and tight parking spaces, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class aims to maximize utility in an SUV that is minimally sized. The result is a boxy vehicle emphasizing practicality over style, offering seating for up to seven people and a base price under $40,000 combined with the performance, technology, and luxury upgrades you expect in a Mercedes. | |
Reviews SummaryThe luxury compact crossover class is a popular one. It hits the sweet spot for many consumers: the elevated ride height and interior volume of the body style, the prestige badge, and the premium comfort. Smaller vehicles also tend to come with smaller price tags, adding to the attractiveness of this segment. And now, thanks to Acura, competitors may have to look at bringing those prices down even more. Verdict: The ADX delivers on its promise–an experience that is scaled down in size but not standards. Some will find it underpowered, but most will be thrilled to get this mix of comfort, convenience, and styling at a significant cost savings. | |
