As Mercedes will attract and win over a new generation of buyers to the German brand, the GLA-Class will play a big part.

Lighting plays a key part in creating a special feel in the cabin, and the GLA Edition 1 will have a unique ambiance inside. It will feature special illumination of the center console, both make-up mirrors, front door sill panels with Mercedes lettering, front and rear footwell lighting, and rear lighting with integral reading lamps and locator lighting.

The new GLA-Class is already a head-turner, but the Edition 1 will attract attention from the street with exclusive treatments like bi-xenon headlamps, 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels finished in high-gloss black, a black radiator grille louvre with chrome inserts, black-painted exterior mirrors, black waistline trim strips and dark-tinted glass starting from the B-pillars.
