Second‑Generation Redesign (H247)
Six years after the debut of the first generation, a completely new second generation was introduced in 2019. The H247 designation refers to this generation, which spans model years 2021‑2025 and brings updated styling, technology, and a fresh parts ecosystem.
High‑Performance Variant Production
The GLA 250 equipped with a 224 hp DCT transmission began production in February 2020 and continued until 2023. This limited‑run powertrain highlights Mercedes‑Benz’s focus on delivering stronger performance within the GLA lineup.
