Mercedes-Benz has revealed the revised 2024 GLA and GLB crossovers. The pair received many of the same updates, including revised front fascias and new standard LED headlights. Mercedes also upped the level of standard equipment on both.
New grilles adorn the two crossovers, with the GLB getting a more rugged front bumper with visual underbody protection. A new Spectral Blue Metallic paint and new wheel designs in 18- and 20-inch sizes are available for both.

The 2024 GLA and GLB crossovers will arrive with two 10.25-inch screens on the dash as standard. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, with Mercedes upholstering the steering wheel in Nappa leather. The AMG Line is available with a heated steering wheel for the first time in both models.
The new petrol and diesel GLA and GLB models all pack the same turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with a new mild-hybrid system making between 148 to 215 bhp. The second-generation belt-driven starter-generator provides a temporary 13-bhp boost in certain driving conditions.
The design updates also apply to the AMG variants, which receive front fascias with the new styling. The AMG emblem is now on the bonnet, with the automaker fitting revised LED headlights and taillights on the two crossovers. Inside, the pair get the newest-generation AMG Performance steering wheel and the company’s latest MBUX software.
