New Mercedes GLB takes on the X3 and Q5

The GLB looks like a chunkier, squarer SUV than anything Benz has made this side of the G-Class. Picture: SUPPLIED

It’s the SUV that will finally take Mercedes into the fight with BMW’s X3 and Audi’s Q5, with just the right size, just the right spec and just the right badge. The interior itself feels airy and friendly, and offers an optional third row of seats. Picture: SUPPLIED After all, they have their own side airbags, their own retractable headrests, their own Isofix mounting points, their own USB ports and their own seatbelt pre-tensioners.

There’s none of the stodginess of some Benzes and it’s clear that it’s aimed at bringing in a younger, family-oriented audience because it has a slightly no-nonsense feel about the way it gets things done.
