2026 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250: Luxury That Fits Your Day

The 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 brings Mercedes-Benz refinement to a compact SUV that is easy to enjoy every day. Its size works just as well in urban environments as on the open road, while its flexible cabin leaves room for changing plans. At Mercedes-Benz of Chesterfield, we can help you see how naturally it fits your life. 

Power and Performance 

Pulling into traffic or passing on the highway feels quick and controlled. The Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 pairs a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with mild-hybrid technology to produce 221 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission keeps shifts crisp, while DYNAMIC SELECT® lets you change the steering and powertrain response to match the drive. Front-wheel drive comes standard, or you can opt for 4MATIC® AWD, and the 6.8-second estimated sprint from zero to 60 mph gives you useful power without making this new Mercedes-Benz SUV feel demanding. 

Tech Features 

The technology is easy to understand once you settle in. Two standard 10.25-inch displays place driving information and MBUX controls across one clean digital layout. Say "Hey, Mercedes™," and you can ask the system to adjust certain cabin settings or provide directions without working through the touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ bring familiar apps along, while available augmented video for navigation places directional cues over a live view of the road. Our team can also show you how Remote Start through the Mercedes-Benz app helps prepare the cabin before you leave. 

Safety Features 

Whether you are changing lanes or navigating traffic, the 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 gives you helpful information at the right moments. Blind Spot Assist can alert you to a vehicle alongside you, and Active Brake Assist can respond when it detects a possible collision ahead. ATTENTION ASSIST® also looks for signs of fatigue during longer trips. The available Driver Assistance Package adds Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC®, Active Steering Assist, and Active Lane Keeping Assist for more support on the highway. These features can lend a hand, but you still need to remain attentive and in control.
