Doing some research on picking up a gently used GLB 35 AMG and finding conflicting info about whether it comes standard with an adaptive suspension or not. I see on window stickers notes of an "adaptive suspension" as coming standard and press info about the drive selector mode changing throttle, steering AND suspension yet I also see some 2022 and 2021s having an optional "AMG Ride Control Adaptive Suspension". It seems later years may come with that as standard. So which is it? Does the 2020-2022 come with a passive AMG tuned suspension? If so, do any of you have any experience with it?

Thanks!

 

Depending on model year and market it could have been optional or standard. Make sure you find a model that has it though, it really gives the car a much broader performance envelope. In comfort it's not that harsh, but in sport+ in can corner very flat.
Passive setups are usually somewhere between comfort and sport settings.

 

Quick update - Confirmed through a 2022 ordering guide posted on here that the AMG Ride Control Adaptive suspension is standard on 2022 model years. Assuming that's the case for subsequent years and perhaps 2021 as well.

Also, picked up the 2022 I was considering - awesome ride. This GLB35 is a hoot to drive and the adaptive suspension is great and exactly what I was looking for. The car is for my daughter but when I drive it it's always in Sport+
