2018 MERCEDES AMG GLA 45 REVIEW - Since it arrived in 2015, I've been lukewarm on Benz's high-performance small crossover and its less powerful GLA250 sibling because of their jerky drivetrains and disappointing interiors. The lineup felt half-baked, lacking the sort of refinement expected of cars wearing the Three-Pointed Star. For 2018, updates to the GLA-Class are warranting my reevaluation, but even as I climb aboard, I wonder if they will make a difference.
After just a few miles in the GLA45, things do feel better. The 2.0-liter turbocharged four, with 375 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, is as lively as ever, pulling madly to redline without suffering severe boost-lag symptoms. The manufacturer says this crossover will hit 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds, and charge to an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph. If that's not fast enough for you, an optional AMG Dynamic Plus Package pushes max velocity to 167.
he GLA45's ability to hustle hard doesn't change. With AMG Dynamic Select in Sport Plus for more aggressive engine mapping, gearbox shifts and a firmer suspension calibration, corner carving is a hoot. The 4Matic all-wheel-drive system efficiently puts power down, and there's no shortage of grip on the twisting roads between small Hungarian towns.
In addition to thanking the 4Matic system, suspension and tires for all the stick around bends, the front limited-slip differential included in the AMG Dynamic Plus Package certainly plays a part. Turn-in is immediate and body motions are always kept in check as the car did everything I asked it to.
Completing the GLA45's rather riveting drive experience is sensational steering response and feel, confidence-inspiring braking, and a pleasing, crackling exhaust note during downshifts.
