Discover Why the BMW X1 Leaves the Mercedes GLA Behind

When it comes to choosing a luxury SUV, there are only so many options out there. That’s because few manufacturers have figured out how to combine the comfort and styling that is expected from a luxury vehicle with the power and utility of an SUV.

Two options that are often mentioned in the same sentence are the BMW X1 and the Mercedes GLA. So, on the question of the X1 vs. the GLA, which triumphs?

We decided to compare them and find out.

When It Comes to All-around Quality, the Mercedes GLA Doesn’t Stack Up Against the BMW X1

For starters, let’s look at pure power, which is a simple matter of numbers. How do they add up? The BMW X1 wins with 240 horsepower and a 0-60 time of 5.2 seconds compared to the Mercedes GLA’s 208 and 0-60 time of 6.4.

As for passenger and cargo capacity – which is really what makes a vehicle an SUV in the first place – once again we see that the X1 takes the win with several more cubic feet of space.

As for all-around performance, reviewers across the board give the X1 several more points than the GLA.

The X1 also stands out in terms of features, offering a larger infotainment screen, panoramic sunroof, keyless ignition and entry, heated steering wheel, and the Remote Services system, which allows you to control various functions from your smartphone. You can’t get any of these features in the GLA.

Test Drive the Luxury and Utility of a BMW X1 for Yourself

BMW has also garnered recognition from J.D. Power and Associates for creating vehicles that offer solid reliability. Add that up with the points above, and it’s clear to see that the BMW X1 provides everything you could want from a luxury SUV.

But don’t take our word for it. Visit Reeves BMW Tampa today, and experience the power, spaciousness, and luxury of a BMW X1 for yourself.
