Grippier and More Powerful, the Gla Is All Set to Rejoin the Party
Back in the ‘90s, I, as a 10-year old dork, was intrigued by how manufacturers could share platforms among their cars to save on cost. My only concern then was that it would have made all cars look identical. Thankfully, such is not the case here. So when the GLA was launched, no one said that it was just an A-Class on stilts, or a downsized GLK, for that matter. Now, after more than 3,500 units sold — sizeable number for a premium vehicle — the GLA distances itself from its lesser cousins, with an all-wheeldrive system and other bits to justify the slightly more premium positioning. Welcome the GLA 220 d 4MATIC.

HISTORY CHANNEL
When I'm around old motorcycles, I often find myself wondering what it must've been like to be born in an earlier time. Wondering, mind you, not wishing. I wonder what it was like when mankind invented the motorcycle. I wouldn't want to get anywhere near the first motorcycle, the Daimler Reitwagen (the word means 'riding car', stupidly enough), made by German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. To quote Melissa Holbrook Pierson, 'The first motorcycle looks like an instrument of torture.' And something that might cause an explosion uncomfortably close to one's nether regions. Right after it's shaken loose every healed bone in one's body.
