It’s intelligence includes the MBUX system, ambient lighting with 64 colors and LED headlamps. The GLB can comfortably seat seven people with an available third row. The GLB has a variety of cargo configurations because the second row can be moved up six inches to give the driver the cargo room they need. The starting MSRP has recently been announced and the GLB will be priced from $37,595 for a front-drive model and $39,959 for an all-wheel drive which includes the Off-Road Engineering package, standard. The 2020 GLB uses a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine with 221 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque.
