2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2020 Volvo XC40 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA vs. 2020 Volvo XC40 The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA is a compact SUV that is appreciated for its being agile, luxury appointments, and an impressive crossover functionality. Another compact vehicle that is unapologetically clever is the 2020 Volvo XC40. Both cars come with advanced in-car tech and represent the diminutive SUVs perfectly well. Design & Style Very prominent on the GLA’s exterior is the distinct large three-pointed star. It looks great on the grille and seemingly reminds everyone of the car’s luxurious roots. Its sculpted body is complemented by the steeply-angled roof pillars. On its interior is made with upscale materials that reflect the lavish personality of any Mercedes-Benz vehicle. As for the XC40, it is so unlike the XC60 and XC90 in terms of the design elements. It has a youthful vibe going on in the exterior, amplified by the Thor’s hammer headlights. There is also a small under bite on its concave lip and a stamped clamshell hood that are added to remove any shunt lines on the nose. Technology & Safety Unlike most luxury vehicles that have to be upgraded to get the entire best in-car tech, the GLA is well-equipped even with a standard setup. There is an 8-inch touch display, seamless connectivity, and even a free five-year subscription for the Mbrace Connect telematics services. Optional features include A Wi-Fi hotspot, Harman Kardon audio setup, and satellite radio, to name a few. Get the best mash up of technology with the Multimedia package which already has both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Volvo vehicles are also quite interesting when it comes to technology. The XC40 has an adequate infotainment system that may be upgraded for a fancier set up. It has advanced driver aids but the forward collision system is overly sensitive that you will be forced to just shut it off, defeating the purpose of having it for safety. Performance The standard engine on the GLA starts at a modest 208-hp and comes with a power liftgate and three performance modes for optimized engine and transmission settings. This makes the GLA a perfect car to have across different weather and road conditions because it can easily adapt to the environment. As for the XC40, its turbocharged 2.0-liter engine is quick and responsive. It has, however, less power with only up to 187 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque for the base model. The high-performance trim is the T5 but it can only deliver up to 248 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The Bottom Line The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA is a subcompact that delivers a full-sized luxury car’s performance. Its characteristics make for a perfect city-friendly crossover but with the right amounts of luxury. The 2020 Volvo XC40 is a good choice too if it has addressed the issue regarding the uncomfortable seating position for the driver. Ready to Schedule a 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA Test Drive Today?

2020 Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2020 Kia Stinger 2020 Mercedes-Benz C-Class vs. 2020 Kia Stinger Consistency and competence are two characteristics that are often expected from luxury vehicles. One of the few select cars that are able to achieve both qualities is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz C- Class. This is the reason why many people adore it despite having only minor changes from its predecessors. In fact, the C-Class keeps on improving with every little addition it received through the years. With only on its second model year, the 2020 Kia Stinger is an interesting entry to luxury vehicles with its promise of a supple ride quality and a graceful fastback body. Let us find out if these qualities are enough to rival the C-Class. Design & Style Both the cabriolet and coupe versions of the C-Class have attractive shapes and the sedan is simply elegant with its sloped rear end. The silhouette still looks the same from the previous model years but added new details to make it look more sophisticated. The grille now sports a new diamond pattern and the AMG® versions are integrated with small spoilers and big air intake nostrils. The cabin is where most of the design updates can be better appreciated. There is an elegant center stack for the controls where physical buttons are replaced with the touch screen menu on its infotainment. The minimalist Following the trend among high-style Italian cars, the Stinger takes an admirable shot at being fashionable with the striking sheet metal, short front overhang, soaring roofline and a long hood. It also has ducts, creases, and spoilers that honestly look a bit too much. Technology & Safety If it is from a German automaker, then you would most probably expect for innovative tech. The C-Class does not disappoint with its own COMAND® system. The crisp and clear graphics pus the multiple control options works seamlessly in providing an intuitive infotainment system. There are also driver assist features that are well-calibrated for a safer drive. The Stinger may not be on the same league as the C-Class when it comes to in-car tech but it does offer a suite of the latest driver aids and standard smart phone connectivity features. Performance The C-Class guaranteed a smooth and lively performance with its 255 hp engine. It is nice that it has a strong grip so that it can stay firmly on the road even during the wet season. The Stinger has a 3.3- liter V6 engine for an impressive to 365 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque. It gives a strong acceleration and it stays well-behaved if you are not going to be hammering too much on the pedal. The Bottom Line It is so obvious that the 2020 Kia Stinger is bent on impressing everyone by giving a lot of extras. It is fine in terms of performance because everybody wants a strong and able engine under the hood. On the design, however, the additional details are just too much that it looks rather tacky than classy. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz C-Class, on the other hand, is able to balance everything from the gorgeous looks down to a solid road performance.

Unlike other big cars that tend to have a compromised exterior, the GLS looks stylish and full of substance. This is why many driving-enthusiast parents would prefer it over anything else. Another big luxury vehicle that is interesting is the 2020 Ford Explorer. Its attractive design is enough to take it mainstream and a lot of people have come to appreciate the now-familiar Explorer. Design & Style Luxury SUVs are slowly filling up the crowd and the GLS is a refreshing sight. The promise of a roomy cabin is wrapped in a bold yet elegant exterior. It is sufficiently chiseled to give it a powerful stance but the interior is graceful, thanks to the luxurious materials it is made of. Although the cabin has been designed to look like a typical luxury car, the exterior of the Explorer clearly shows its truck heritage. It is bulky but it does have pleasing proportions that are also endearing for some people. The only disappointment is that unlike its hunky size, the designers failed to offer bolder design cues to make it a bit different than its predecessor. Technology & Safety The ultra-modern interior of the GLS is a hint that you can expect for it to have first-class infotainment. It took pampering to a new level with the ventilated and massaging seats. Other available luxuries include the new MBUX with its enhanced Artificial Intelligence capabilities. It dutifully updates the system based on the commands and habits of the user. The Me Connect feature is also available to remotely access basic car commands, such as locking/unlocking of doors to starting the vehicle from afar. The Explorer has standard infotainment that works already well on the basic setup. There is an option to upgrade the system but doing so is not advised. Many people noticed that there seems to be a glitch on the updated setup where it does not pair well with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Performance The GLS is rewarding to drive, thanks to its 362-hp engine. Its steering is precise and provides an accurate feel of the road. It is also amazing how GLS can easily adapt to a variety of roads. It does not have a problem being on the road or off of it. The Explorer is also better to drive now compared to the last version. It is powered by a 300 hp engine that is perfectly adequate. There is a hybrid version for more power but it is not as refined and transitions feel rough and not well-tuned. The Bottom Line The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS has many capabilities that can only be described as awesome. Many big luxury vehicles are struggling to balance its looks to its character, like the 2020 Ford Explorer, but the GLS will have none of that.
