If Mercedes were to create a crossover version of the CLA, it would probably be called the GLB and look something like this. Yes, you can tell it’s a rendering, but it does a good job of showing us what a ridiculous thing such a car would be…
As you’d expect based purely on the name (if you’re familiar with Mercedes’ model monikers), this car would be a slightly taller CLA, with plastic cladding and more constraint on the prospective owner to opt for all-wheel drive with the already bloated options package you’d be forced to have.
These crossover-ized versions of regular cars usually come with extra options you can’t tick off the list that usually bump the price unjustifiably. Everybody from Dacia to Volvo is doing it and ill-informed buyers fall for it every time.
