The all-new electric Mercedes-Benz GLB arrives as a confident blend of striking SUV design, intelligent technology and genuine real-world practicality. Now available as a fully electric 5- or 7-seater, it’s built for busy families, active lifestyles and anyone who wants an SUV that can do it all, without compromise. With long-distance range, ultra-fast charging, impressive towing capability and an upgraded high-tech interior centred around the new MBUX Superscreen, the electric GLB brings true everyday usability into the premium EV space.

Design 

Mercedes-Benz has reimagined the GLB with bold, sculptural proportions, a powerful stance and distinctive lighting signatures that feel instantly modern. The upright front section and short overhangs give it authentic SUV presence, while the flush wheels and muscular shoulders add a dynamic, sleek appeal.

At the front, the iconic star-pattern grille features 94 individually animated LED stars, a striking, characterful detail that sets the electric GLB apart. With optional illuminated elements and a wide track, it has been designed to deliver confidence from every angle.

A panoramic roof comes as standard, flooding the cabin with light. For those who want even more theatre, the SKY CONTROL panoramic roof will switch from transparent to opaque in milliseconds, creating a unique visual effect day or night.

Interior 

Inside, the GLB steps into a new era of design. The focus is on high-tech simplicity and intelligent usability, centred around the optional MBUX Superscreen, a sweeping glass panel combining three seamlessly integrated displays: driver, central touchscreen and a dedicated screen for the front passenger. A floating centre console, new ergonomic steering wheel, refined materials and configurable ambient lighting (11 ambient themes) create a luxurious, personal environment

Key interior highlights include:

• Available as a 5- or 7-seater.
• A sliding second row allows the space to flex between passenger legroom and luggage capacity.
• Improved headroom and legroom across the first two rows.
• A 127-litre front boot (frunk).
• Up to 540 litres of boot space (480 L in 7-seater).
• Fold all seats and unlock up to 1,715 litres of total load space.
• Install up to four child seats, with ISO-Fix available in both rows, and the front passenger seat.

Performance & Range

Two fully electric models lead the new GLB line-up, each built on the same impressive foundations: an 85 kWh usable lithium-ion battery, up to 2,000 kg of towing capability and a 100 kg drawbar load ideal for carrying multiple bikes on family adventures.

The GLB 250+ delivers 200 kW of power and an exceptional WLTP range of up to 392 miles, making it a standout choice for long-distance driving.

For those who want even more capability, the GLB 350 4MATIC offers 260 kW, dual motors and all-wheel drive for instant traction, along with dedicated TERRAIN MODE for gravel paths and light off-road tracks. It also features the innovative Transparent Bonnet camera view, helping drivers navigate low-speed manoeuvres.

Charging

The GLB’s next-generation 800-volt architecture brings exceptional charging performance:

• Add up to 260 km of range in just 10 minutes at a rapid charging station (320 kW)
• Compatible with both 800-volt and 400-volt infrastructures (DC converter optional)
• Up to 22 kW AC charging for quicker home or workplace top-ups
