The Brabus GLA 220 CDI looks absolutely spectacular, and you can get one.

Brabus’s work never fails to surprise us, because they know how to bring out the most spectacular side of every Mercedes. We have seen many models from the German brand pass through the hands of this personalisation specialist, and now we are going to take a closer look at another one. The Mercedes GLA 220 DCI becomes a more attractive and interesting car thanks to this personalisation work, and we can see it in all its glory.

That said, unlike other models, the GLA 220 DCI is not especially spectacular, although it certainly offers a more appealing car than the base model. To start with, it features redesigned front and rear bumpers. In addition, the roof carries a new spoiler, and there is a personalised badge alongside 20-inch Brabus wheels. All of this together creates a very sporty and aggressive look that suits the model well.

Inside, the Brabus name appears on the lower door sill, so that we are aware we are climbing aboard one of the cars touched by the brand. The interior also carries the tuner’s characteristic signature, as its design has been applied so that the driver and occupants are comfortable and at ease in the seats. A more sporty appearance and extra elements to enhance it are interesting additions for enjoying this Mercedes.

Under the bonnet, the ECO PowerXtra D3 kit is fitted, which lets the engine raise its 167 CV up to 207 CV, while the maximum torque rises by 60 Nm to 410 Nm. These figures do not offer spectacular gains, but they bring the 0 to 100 km/h acceleration down to 8 seconds, below the 8.3 seconds achieved by the basic model. In addition, top speed climbs to 220 km/h, five kilometres per hour more than the model offered before this transformation. What do you think of this personalised version?
