2023 Order Guide
#3
Page 3 of the guide has some scary notices... What is the Distronic Plus option and will it be back soon? I am trying to talk my wife into a GLA and the Driver Assistance package could sell her. If this is a radar unit, does it affect all of the Driver Asst? Is it missing from all 2022s? Would it be in a 2021? I don't think I would order without this.

My wife really likes the Mazda CX-30, and it's hard to argue against that at half the price of a 45. I'd hate to find out that critical extra goodies aren't available while we're all sitting at a Mercedes dealer.
There's no urgency on this; I was just hoping that someone could share some knowledge. Mercedes seems rather coy about publishing problems....

2024 GLA facelift revealed was claimed to arrive in North America in the Fall
A bit late (the reveal was over a day ago)
It looks like the H247 facelift GLA 35 announced, no GLA 45 yet.

C&D messed up for a silly reason. There was a press release for 1) the GLB250/4matic, 2) the GLA250/4Matic, and 3) the GLA/GLB35. So three seperate press releases, with the AMG models having their own. No mention of the GLA45 in any. But it's not like they did one press release for the GLA250 and GLA35 and the 45 wasn't on it. I think they'll just do a later press release for the 45 model, which I think based on the CLA will now be the GLA45 S with 416bhp.

That vehicle will not be as fun to drive as the 35, but since I am biased, the A205 at least the interior is quite nice and worth it over the 35 alone.

yes, it drives like a couch… but still going to build my 35. Thinking by the time my allocation is in play, it should be the 24.
