Estate cars, no matter what the badge on the front, are all about space. At least, that's a very good reason to drive one. But the GLB Estate has been crafted with looks as well as acres of space. And we really do mean acres This is an estate car that you can fit seven people into if you go for the extra row of seats. What's more, from the outside it doesn't look like a long-wheel-base van something that many competitors are charged and guilty of. So whether it's the family, a three-month shop or enough leisure equipment for a week away, the Mercedes Benz GLB Estate is a good choice as your next drive.
This estate comes with a choice of four engines, two diesels and two petrols. All having an automatic gearbox as standard that performs well whatever engine you have under the bonnet. You can go for two or four-wheel drive, depending on your engine choice.
So, the outside has looks, what about the cabin? As you'd expect from Mercedes Benz, it doesn't disappoint. All GLBs do away with conventional dials. You'll enjoy innovative digital instruments instead. These can be customised to display important information in various styles and modes to suit your driving style. Despite the high-tech features, all are easy-to-use and intuitive.
There's plenty of space all round, with head and legroom being enough, even for taller drivers. Even 6-foot passengers in the back won't be uncomfortable.
The infotainment system is top-notch too. All GLB Estates are fitted with a 7-inch screen. You get a handy sat-nav, DAB radio and Bluetooth - great for keeping everyone entertained on those long trips away.
