All-new GLA stars in Merc's SUV blitz

Next GLA to be based on new platform and offer more space 

Revised styling, new diesel engines and hybrid power all planned

James_Brodie@dennis.co.uk @jimmybrods

MERCEDES is plotting a massive overhaul of its SUV range with five new models by the end of the decade. And set to form a vital piece of the puzzle will be an all-new GLA crossover.

The GLA will remain the smallest, cheapest member of the SUV family, and even though the current model received a mid-life refresh at January’s Detroit Motor Show, the second-generation car is already undergoing development testing ahead of a debut expected in 2019.
