It sure seems like three-row SUVs are the next big thing. Earlier this year, we saw the launch of the Tesla Model Y L, and word on the street is that BYD\u2019s three-row Sealion 8 is coming. Today, however, we have the launch of Mercedes-Benz\u2019s new GLB. This new model replaces the old EQB.<\/p>\n
The GLB is Mercedes-Benz\u2019s most compact three-row SUV\u00a0and will\u00a0be offered in two variants: the GLB200 electric Progressive and GLB250+ electric AMG Line Sport<\/b>.<\/p>\n The front fascia is striking and unmistakably a Benz.<\/p>\n Photo: Mercedes-Benz Singapore<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The entry-level GLB200 has a power output of 110kW (148hp)<\/b> and 335nm of torque. 0-100km\/h takes 10.8 seconds. It also has a 58kWh battery and a claimed WLTP range of 453km. The maximum charging rate is 200kW, which Mercedes says is enough to add around 140km of range in 10 minutes.<\/p>\n The GLB250+ has a higher power output of 200kW (268hp)<\/b>. However, maximum torque is unchanged at 335nm. 0-100km\/h takes just 7.4 seconds, and it has a larger 85kWh battery that\u2019s good for a claimed WLTP range of 674km. It charges faster, too. Maximum charging speed is up to 320kW, which can add about 225km of range in 10 minutes.<\/p>\n The frunk has a capacity of 127L.<\/p>\n Photo: Mercedes-Benz Singapore<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The new GLB is\u00a0a\u00a0larger\u00a0car\u00a0than the EQB\u00a0model\u00a0it replaces.\u00a0According to Mercedes-Benz, the wheelbase is 60mm longer (2,889mm)<\/b>, which adds up to 68mm of legroom for passengers in the second row. The third-row seat consists of two individual seats, which the brand claims can accommodate passengers up to 1.71m in height.<\/p>\n For added practicality, the GLB has a large 127L frunk to make up for its compromised boot with all the seats up.\u00a0With the\u00a0third row\u00a0seats down, however, you have a boot with a capacity of\u00a0480L.\u00a0Fold all the seats down, and that increases to 1,605L.<\/p>\n The MBUX Superscreen looks incredibly swanky.<\/p>\n Photo: Mercedes-Benz Singapore<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Mercedes-Benz\u2019s cars are known for their swanky interiors, and the GLB upholds this tradition. Both variants will get the MBUX Superscreen<\/b>, which means a 10.2-inch driver\u2019s display and a 14-inch centre infotainment display. The GLB250+ also gets an additional passenger-side display for the full widescreen experience.\u00a0Panoramic roofs are standard on both cars.<\/p>\n For folks who require the flexibility of the internal combustion engine, Mercedes-Benz says hybrid versions of the GLB will be available later this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Mercedes-Benz GLB200 electric Progress and GLB250+ electric AMG Line Sport are both available now. Prices of the GLB200 start at S$280,000<\/b>, while prices of the more powerful and longer range GLB250+ start at S$310,888<\/b>. Prices include COE.<\/p>\n Note:<\/i><\/b> Prices are correct at the time of publishing and may change depending on COE prices.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n It sure seems like three-row SUVs are the next big thing.
