About the 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLB
1st generation (X247), second US model year for the AMG GLB 35; before the 2024 styling and technology update
Mercedes-AMG positions the GLB 35 as a compact luxury SUV that blends everyday space with genuine performance hardware. Its upright body and adjustable second row make it more useful for passengers and cargo than many small performance SUVs, while the 302-hp turbo engine, quick-shifting dual-clutch transmission, variable AWD, stronger brakes, and adaptive sport suspension give it the sharper responses expected from an AMG model.
The sole AMG GLB 35 is the performance-focused GLB, pairing a practical, upright SUV body with a 302-hp turbocharged four-cylinder engine, an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and variable AWD. It also has adaptive sport suspension, stronger AMG brakes, five drive modes, and twin 10.25-inch displays with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
