Displacement: 1,991 cc
The 2026 GLA 250 utilizes the M260 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine. This unit is enhanced by a 48-volt mild-hybrid system that includes an Integrated Starter-Generator (ISG). The ISG provides a temporary boost of 13 bhp and allows the vehicle to coast with the engine off to maximize fuel efficiency.
Max Power: 221 bhp
The engine produces 221 bhp at 5,500 rpm. The mild-hybrid system supports the combustion engine during acceleration, providing a smoother power delivery and helping the GLA feel punchy and responsive in urban traffic.
Max Torque: 350 Nm (258 lb-ft)
Peak torque is available from a low 1,800 rpm up to 4,000 rpm. This early torque delivery, combined with the 48V electric assistance, ensures that the GLA has plenty of overtaking power on the highway despite its compact displacement.
0-100 km/h Time: 6.6 Seconds
The GLA 250 4MATIC is impressively quick for its segment, achieving the 0-100 km/h sprint in just 6.6 seconds. The 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system ensures optimal traction during hard launches by distributing power to the wheels with the most grip.
