When the keywords of a big 7-seater, compact SUV and high performance are linked together, what model does the first thing come to mind? At first glance, three unrelated keywords that are so hard put together are really very contradictory, and you may have no clue in an instant, but our protagonist today is the best of these keywords, and it is Mercedes-Benz GLLB AMG.
Recently, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLB AMG was officially launched, and a total of 1 new car was launched, with a guiding price of 445,100 yuan. As an annual remodeled model, the new car is mainly adjusted to a certain extent for the configuration and price, the interior and exterior design and power of the vehicle have not changed, let's understand how it performs.
Exterior design
Mercedes-Benz GLLB AMG in the appearance of the design of the use of AMG's iconic large-size straight waterfall type network, the interior matching a wealth of chrome elements as decoration, the middle part of the huge Mercedes-Benz brand logo can definitely meet the vanity of many consumers. The rounded geometric multi-beam headlights on the left and right sides are very delicate, and the folded strips are distributed on the edges of the light group, and the visual effect after lighting is good. In addition, the model is also equipped with a decoration of heat dissipation openings in the front surround, which further sets off the sporty atmosphere of the whole vehicle.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of the new model are 4650×1845×1663 mm, and the wheelbase is 2829 mm, and the data has not been adjusted. The body side design of the new car is more conventional, and the 19-inch AMG-style rim is indeed very full on such a petite model, but perhaps considering its own positioning, the 50 flat-ratio tires make it look like it does not have too strong a sense of performance.
The rear shape of the Mercedes-Benz GLB AMG is very different from the ordinary version of the model, and the entire rear adopts the design of the lower width and upper narrowness, which gives people a very solid feeling. The tail light clusters on both sides are similar in shape to the headlights, and are equipped with a zigzag strip inside. In addition, the car is equipped with a double-sided round hole exhaust at the rear of the bag, and then with the decoration of the diffuser in the middle part, which effectively sets off the sports atmosphere of the whole vehicle.
Interior design

The dual 10.25-inch one-piece screen on the center console is beautiful and generous, with a full LCD instrument panel that can be switched freely between multiple modes, and the two dials that can be set separately for more personalized options.

The interior of the front seats of the car is thickly padded, the seat surface is relatively wide, and the wings on both sides have a certain degree of prominence, wrapping and comfort.

In addition, the performance of the third row of the new car is not very optimistic, there is almost no leg room, and there is no support for the legs of the passengers, and the riding experience is very depressing.
