Apple CarPlay and Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class 2025 Android Auto are standard; navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio, a head-up display, 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class and a Burmester premium audio system are optional. The device can be operated via the touchscreen, using voice commands, or utilizing the touchpad control unit in the guts console. Every 2024 GLA is built with two 10.3-inch screens—one for the driver's display and one for the infotainment system. This is a slightly more refined setup in the Mercedes lineup that's received mixed reviews from our editors.
Whilst the ride quality is generally smooth, the high-performance Mercedes-AMG GLA 35 has a stiffer suspension which makes road imperfections more noticeable. Both engines have a mild-hybrid system that provides mostly smooth stop/start transitions, but the ability delivery can be quite a bit uneven whenever you step on the gas pedal.
