Electric GLB launch adds momentum

According to the same zecar pricing overview, the GLB 250+ electric is listed at 74,990 Australian dollars, while the higher-performance GLB 350 4MATIC electric is priced at 86,200 Australian dollars, giving Mercedes a distinct price spread of 11,210 Australian dollars between the two electric GLB variants and positioning the 7-seat EV against key segment rivals.

Range and performance figures matter for EV buyers

The GLB 250+ electric uses an 85 kWh battery and, per a Mercedes-Benz spec sheet cited by zecar, offers a WLTP range of up to 626 kilometers, compared with 570 kilometers referenced in a Mercedes-Benz release text, highlighting a difference of 56 kilometers between the two range figures for the same vehicle.

For the GLB 350 4MATIC electric, the same comparison shows a WLTP range of 609 kilometers in the spec sheet versus 554 kilometers in the release text, a gap of 55 kilometers, while power output rises from 200 kW on the GLB 250+ electric to 260 kW on the GLB 350 4MATIC electric and the 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time improves from 7.4 seconds to 5.5 seconds according to zecar.
