I had the 2019 GLA 250 and in 2021 upgraded to the AMG GLA 45. The difference was enormous. This is such a fast car that you really need to be a good driver with lots of experience to handle it responsibly. it’s definitely tempting to speed constantly because the car wants to GO!! No complaints other than I wish the seats were more comfortable. By the time you get all the upgrades you are looking at 70k+. There’s no such thing as a $250 monthly lease unless you put at least 30k down, so who ever came up with the economics on these vehicles hasn’t bought one. But compared to the cost of other AMG’s that go slower but cost twice as much, this is a great value. The way the engine sounds is probably my most favorite aspect of this car. The handling is incredible, brakes are sharp, love the auto high beams and the cascading effect when they turn on. I havnt seen another one of these on the road so I like that it’s rare and I can find it in the parking lot very easily. I actually get 30 miles per gallon on the hwy if I stay in comfort mode and don’t go over 70. Lots of high tech do-dads that actually improve your driving experience. Sticks to the road like Velcro, I added a sub woofer (how can you not) with a powerful amp, tinted the windows really dark, put all weather tires on it, my husband calls it “The Beast!” It definitely is!! Beauty and the Beast

The engine and transmission are as advertised. The car is a little rocket, and the shifting is rocket fast. The combination of economy and speed is hard to beat, I don't know how the Germans do it. Consistently get high 20's combined, and the car is 3.9 0-60. The safety algorithms are not good, the car safety tech supercedes the human input, causing dangerous encounters regularly. The Burmester sound system is top notch. The manufacturing is less quality than expected from Europe, many nagging rattles inside the vehicle, even when brand new.
