As the GLA is fundamentally the same as the A and CLA models, the performance and aerodynamic packages were fairly routine adjustments. The Brabus package does however give the soft-roader Mercedes-Benz a different look to the serial model!<\/p>\n<p>Brabus have developed a package that beefs up the off-roading element of the mini-SUV. The Brabus Mercedes-Benz GLA gets three different versions, Standard, Style and Urban specifications. The high-grade PUR parts include a front bumper, a front spoiler and side air inlets. The sides get an LED under lighting system whereas the rear gets a spoiler and a Brabus rear bumper together with a stainless steel quad exhaust.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"ngg-galleryoverview\"
