GLA 200 Sport

Disappointing

Took this car on a 3 year lease to replace my GLC. Given the difference in price points I wasn't expecting the GLA to impress as much, but on the whole I have found the car very disappointing and well below my experience of the GLC.

The handling/braking doesn't inspire any confidence, there seems to be a lot of torque steer under acceleration, and the seats are very uncomfortable on long drives. The build quality is fairly good, and fuel economy is decent to give some balance. The car has been reliable so no qualms there.

My son's A35 was also disappointing so I don't think either of us will be back in a Mercedes any time soon.

4/10 for me.
