Mercedes Benz redefines the compact crossver SUV with the all-new GLA-Class which can be described as the baby sister of the GLK-Class in the Mercedes-Benz's lineup. In the warm-up for its official release at the Frankfurt Motor Show (next month), pictures and specifications were released.

With the standard front-wheel-drive, the GLA clearly takes a cue from the earlier released CLA; however, Mercedes-Benz will also offer a new version of its 4Matic electronic all-wheel-drive as an option. What may be a distinguishing factor for this crossover would be the inclusion of an off road mode (capability) and its claimed ability to conquer paved roads with optimum stability.

Another styling cue drafted from the CLA is in the GLA’s interior which is very appealing to the eye with very expensive looks and as described on leftlanenews.com,‘purely Benz’.

GLAs for the U.S. market will be powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder petrol engine rated at 208 hp and 258 lb-ft. of torque, capable of sprinting from stop to 60 mph in just 6.4 seconds. This baby GLS comes with a seven-speed dual clutch automatic transmission to optimize every fragment of the engine power.
Fuel economy estimates and exact release dates have not been announced; however there are speculations that this new crossover will be available in the U.S by late 2014 or early 2015.
