The all-new Mercedes-Benz GLA electric SUV is set to launch in Israel, with the first vehicles expected to arrive soon. While purchases will officially be registered in January 2027, the importer, Colmobil, announced the start of marketing this week. Gasoline-powered versions are anticipated by the end of the first quarter.
The new GLA boasts increased dimensions, measuring 4.56 meters in length, 1.87 meters in width, and 1.60 meters in height, with a wheelbase of 2.79 meters. It features a 410-liter cargo space and a 107-liter front trunk.
Two electric powertrain options will be available initially. The entry-level "200" model offers 224 horsepower, a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 8.1 seconds, and a 58 kWh battery providing a range of 394-447 km. The "250 Plus" variant delivers 272 horsepower, accelerates to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds, and has a larger 85 kWh battery for a range of 577-657 km. A more powerful "350 4Matic" all-wheel-drive version with 354 horsepower is not yet slated for the Israeli market. Mercedes also plans to introduce a new "250" mid-range model in early 2027, potentially paired with gasoline engines.
Customers can choose from five trim levels: Icon, Elite, Elite AMG Line, Signature, and Signature AMG Line. Features range from synthetic leather upholstery and heated front seats in the Icon trim to a Superscreen display, four-zone climate control, and a Burmester sound system in the Signature trim. The top-tier Signature AMG Line adds adaptive suspension and 20-inch wheels.
All trims come equipped with a comprehensive safety suite, rated 8 out of 8 by the Ministry of Transport, including obstacle avoidance assist and a rear-view memory function. Pricing for the GLA 200 starts at NIS 330,000, while the GLA 250 Plus begins at NIS 370,000.
