Which variant to buy

Most buyers should pick the RM290,888 GLB200 Progressive Line. Its 1.33-litre petrol engine makes 161 hp, drives the front wheels and retains the full seven-seat layout. Pay RM341,888 for the GLB250 AMG Line if 221 hp, a 1,992 cc engine and all-wheel drive matter more than the RM51,000 saving. The extra spend is substantial, so the GLB250 needs to suit a clear performance or traction requirement.

Verdict

The GLB X247 facelift puts seven seats into a C-segment SUV with a choice of 161 hp front-wheel drive or 221 hp all-wheel drive. But the entry GLB costs more than the RM283,800 BMW iX2 and RM268,888 Volvo XC40, while the RM341,888 GLB250 sits further up again. Buy it for the seven-seat configuration and the specific drivetrain you need, not on price alone.
