What is it?

The Night Edition brings a new level of urban sophistication and rugged elegance to the premier compact SUV, combining the versatility of the GLA with a monochromatic, high-performance aesthetic, Mercedes claims.

Exterior:

The GLA Night Edition stands out in the MANUFAKTUR Alpine Grey finish, a colour that accentuates the SUV’s surfaces while being exclusive to this model. This edition is defined by its standard AMG-Line body styling, which emphasises its sporty character through power bulges on the bonnet and radiator grille featuring the Mercedes-Benz star pattern.

Exclusive to this model are:

  • Bespoke AMG Rims: Unique to the GLA Night Edition, these wheels are exclusively available on this model.
  • The Night Package: A bold treatment of gloss-black accents on the wing mirrors, window surrounds, and roof rails.
  • Signature Lighting: Standard LED headlamps and a sporty rear diffuser with LED taillights.

Interior:

The interior of the GLA Night Edition remains a benchmark for the segment says Mercedes, offering "class for every day." The cabin architecture is inspired by futuristic design, featuring:

  • The Dual-Screen Command Centre: A freestanding dual-screen display - featuring a 10.25-inch central display-running the latest MBUX software for intuitive, voice or touch-controlled connectivity.
  • The Turbine Aesthetic: Three round, turbine-look air vents that bring a high-quality aviation feel to the cockpit.
  • Premium Touchpoints: A compact, Nappa leather steering wheel and a redesigned centre console.

Engine:

The GLA 200 Night Edition is powered by a 1300 turbo petrol engine with four cylinders producing 120kW and 270Nm of torque, incorporating a 48 V mild-hybrid system
