The 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLB AMG Line Premium occupies a sweet spot in the lineup, blending the boxy, G-Class-inspired practicality of the GLB with the aggressive aesthetics of the AMG division and a high-tier technology suite.
For 2024, the GLB received a mid-cycle refresh, introducing subtle exterior tweaks and a newly standard 48-volt mild-hybrid system to improve smoothness and efficiency. read more
Performance & Drivetrain
The "AMG Line" is primarily
a styling and trim package rather than a full performance tune (unlike the GLB
35). It is typically paired with the GLB 200 or GLB 250 engines.

Key Features: AMG Line Premium
The Premium trim level builds
on the AMG Line by upgrading the interior technology and convenience
features.
- AMG Line Exterior:
Includes the "Star" pattern grille, deeper front and rear
aprons, and 19-inch AMG 5-spoke light-alloy wheels.
- Widescreen Cockpit:
The standard dual 7-inch screens are replaced by two 10.25-inch
displays (one for the digital instrument cluster and one for the MBUX
infotainment).
- Interior Upgrades:
Sports seats in ARTICO man-made leather/MICROCUT microfibre with red
contrast stitching, and an AMG flat-bottom performance steering wheel in
Nappa leather.
- 64-Color Ambient Lighting: Enhanced lighting that includes illuminated air vents.
- Parktronic:
Active Parking Assist with a reversing camera and 360° sensors.
- Keyless-Go:
Hands-free access and push-button start.
The "Boxy" Advantage
The GLB’s primary selling point
remains its upright design. Because it isn't "coupe-styled"
like the GLA, it offers:
- Exceptional Headroom:
Great for taller passengers in the front and second rows.
- Optional 7-Seats:
It is one of the few compact SUVs available with a third row (though best
suited for children).
- Cargo Space:
Up to 570 liters of boot space with the rear seats up, expanding
significantly when folded.
What’s New for 2024?
- Redesigned Lights:
New LED High-Performance headlamps and LED taillights are standard.
- MBUX Update:
The latest generation of software with improved "Hey Mercedes"
voice assistant and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
- Belt Starter-Generator: The new 48V system provides an additional 13 hp
boost for smoother take-offs and improved stop-start transitions.
Note: If you are looking for the high-performance model, you’ll want the Mercedes-AMG GLB 35, which pushes the output to 302 hp and includes a Panamericana grille.
