I bought this 2 months ago with the optional vision package (360 degree camera + multi beam headlights). I chose the GLA35 over the A35 because: - backseat headroom and legroom - I have tall friends and tall family - panamericana grill - slightly higher ground clearance - exactly what Jakub said, I always scrapped my old hatchback’s front bottom when entering. I loved the A35, it handled better and had little pops and bangs which the GLA35 doesn’t In short, if you need better legroom and you need slightly better off-road capability, go GLA35 like me. Otherwise the A35 is cheaper and much more fun
@govinlock8568 3 жыл бұрын
I brought subcompact CUV because of that. I prefer hatchbacks but many ramps around my town aren't designed for a sedan because majority vehicles here are body on frame MPV so front bumpers scrapped a lot if not careful.
@mikehawk120 Жыл бұрын
Agreed. I had the A35 amd loved it, but didn’t get any real extras and I really wanted to active dampers and a few other o-irons like Sirius and nav. (Was told i could download it off the app, but cannot). Traded it in and now have a the g;a45 with those options. Love this lil beast.

@abbashaider8668 3 жыл бұрын
Except for the cheap plastic-y interior, firm seats, outdated infotainment and so-so handling. I wouldn’t call a GLA45 a hot hatch by any stretch of the imagination. I don’t know why anyone would get that over the Golf R, oh wait I know. It’s the Mercedes badge on the front.
@abbashaider8668 3 жыл бұрын
@@effa114 Yes, I have driven one and honestly didn’t see the fuss. Its fun in a straight line and the exhaust is nice but if I just want a fast straight line car for that money I’d get a Challenger SRT. If I wanted a fun ‘crossover hatchback thing’ for the price I’d get a Porsche Macan GTS. But I just got a Golf R and spent the money I saved on making it a lot faster than a GLA45. And I know because I absolutely destroyed a GLA45 this summer on the track.
@abbashaider8668 3 жыл бұрын
@@effa114 Yeah, we all have our own tastes in cars. Even used it's not what I would go for, I could get a used Audi RS5, a C63, or an M2. Idk, for that much money, I expect a certain comfort and refinement from a car. The GLA45 does not offer that. The car I was driving had excessive wind noise going down the highway. But then again, everyone has their own priorities when buying cars.
