What Owners are Saying About the 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLB
"Excellent vehicle"
"This is our first Mercedes and as a result will not be our last. The car is smooth and peppy. Going up the steep hill to our house is no problem because the transmission keeps the power constant - no jerks as it reacts to the hill. The interior is high quality. The infotainment system takes some learning but is great after you understand it. Mileage is about 25 mpg, better than our Audi. The cargo area is easy to use because of the squared off rear of the car. We are very pleased with our selection."
"Great car for trips and around town too!"
"My last car was an Outlander and while I was happy with the car, the MB ride is noticeably smoother as well as faster acceleration. We like the look of the GLB More than the GLC or GLE. We think it has a classic look that will still look good in 10 years. Good gas mileage is an added perk although I buy a car for comfort. I’m 6’5 so I look for good headroom and legroom. This is the first car that I have to move forward a few inches so I have more than enough legroom and about 3” extra headroom. The off road settings and sport modes are nice to have but I usually drive in comfort mode. Paddle shifters are in many cars these days for those who like manual shifting. Overall, the best car I have owned to date. If I don’t have many repair issues, I would buy another one in a five years."
"A great little SUV"
"I have had this car now for about 1 year. It was a lease return and it had 12k miles when I bought it. It was a bit smaller than what I was looking for but I went ahead and bought it anyway because it was a Certified PreOwned vehicle. Well I do have to say that so far it has been great. In the winter it handles very well in the snow. I was surprised. It is a 4matic so I think that helps. The gas mileage has been about 38-39 mpg....I love that. I can run for about a week and a half before I have to fill up. The touchscreen is a bit to encounter at first. I went back to the MBZ dealer about 2 weeks after I bought it and had a sales person show me how everything works. The Mercedes ME Connect app is awesome. I can see excactly where the car is,,how much gas it has,,,,when the next service is due....lock or unlock the car remotely....remote start the car if I want.....I love all of that. Mercedes did have problem with the engine head....a poor design....the check engine light kept coming on and I took it in and they said the head had to be replaced. It was covered under warranty and after the work was done Mercedes now has a warranty on that work til 2035 or 150k miles. It is running beautifully. If you are looking for a mid-to compact size SUV....you should consider the GLB. I miss my Explorer for the room...but this one is not that bad."
