CarTell take
We haven't driven the GLB yet. On paper, check the electric range figure you are quoted: CarExpert lists 570km and 554km, CarsGuide quotes 626km and 609km. Also confirm the seven seat layout on the exact car.
Why consider it
- On paper it is one of the few premium SUVs with seven seats under $90,000, and you can pick mild hybrid petrol or a long range 800V electric version at similar money.
What to know
- The base GLB 200 is front drive only, and the third row in a vehicle this size is best kept for kids.
