AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/26 Report--

Since Mercedes-Benz's plans for small engines have accelerated further, more and more models have been suspiciously low, such as the 2.0T Big G, 1.5T CLS and 1.3T GLB, which are the lowest engines in the same price, but Mercedes-Benz still seems to sell well. Recently, Mercedes-Benz launched 2021 GLB models with a price range of 29.28 to 348800 yuan.

Mercedes-Benz GLB launched in November 2019, so far only ushered in the annual change, so the overall change is not much, in appearance, interior decoration is consistent with the current model, only reflected in the configuration.

In terms of appearance, the new domestic Mercedes-Benz GLB continues the family-style front face, using a cross-country style, including a silver double-banner grille with a hollowed-out design, a front enclosure panel of the same style, and a smaller fog lamp area decoration. It is worth mentioning that the front of the new car is equipped with fog lights on both sides, and the overall design makes the new car look younger.

The side lines are quite straight, which can maximize the head space of the passengers in the back seat. The shape of the tail is highly similar to that of the GLC, and the taillight group is very recognizable when lit. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Mercedes-Benz GLB is maintained as 4638, 1834, and 1687 (1700) mm, and the wheelbase is 2829mm.

In terms of interior decoration, the new car uses a family-oriented double screen design of Mercedes-Benz, which is equipped with a dual 10.25-inch display screen and provides two layouts of five seats / seven seats, corresponding to dynamic and fashion respectively, with an excellent overall sense of science and technology. this is also the reason to attract some consumers.

In terms of power, the new Beijing Mercedes-Benz GLB is equipped with 1.3T turbocharged four-cylinder high / low power engine, the maximum power is 120kW (163hp) and 100kW (136hp), and the maximum torque is 250Nm and 200Nm, respectively. In terms of transmission system, it is matched by a 7-speed wet double clutch gearbox and provides optional four-wheel drive system, which meets the national six emission standards.

In fact, the configuration is the biggest highlight of the new car, the new car is standard with front and rear air curtains, as well as front side airbags. And the whole system is equipped with active braking system, front and rear parking radar, reversing images, these practical configurations are all equipped. Only in the low-configuration model, the door handle chrome trim, the front and rear LED lamp group is also a halogen light source, and there is no electric folding rearview mirror, front seat heating and other common configurations.

It is worth noting that the most attention is paid to the lowest-equipped models in the old models, which shows that the configuration is not the most important before the Mercedes-Benz "big bid", even if the low-end models seem to be more low-key. Of course, Mercedes-Benz GLB sales are considerable because the new car discount is very strong, according to the lowest cash model, the highest discount to nearly 60, 000 yuan, which is obviously very attractive.

Even though the Mercedes-Benz GLB is equipped with a 1.3T engine, it is a very low-power model in the same price market, giving people a sense of "a pony pulling a cart". But how, under the Mercedes-Benz logo and better space, it seems to meet the two main needs of domestic consumers, so that Mercedes-Benz GLBs maintain monthly sales of about 6000 vehicles, which is commendable for a 300000 + Mercedes-Benz SUV. So it doesn't matter whether GLB, which was once not favored by the market, is motivated by some consumers.
