Right, picture this: the 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA 200d AMG Line — it’s a diesel-powered hatchback, but with the swagger of a miniature SUV that’s just stepped out of the gym. It’s got all the AMG Line muscle — flared arches, big alloys, and enough chrome to signal a spaceship. Under the bonnet, there’s a 2.1-litre diesel engine, not exactly a fire-breather, but torquey enough to shuffle you about with a confident growl, especially when mated to that smooth automatic gearbox. Inside? Oh yes, leather, brushed metal, and the sort of dashboard that makes you feel like you’ve just sat in business class… if business class also had red stitching and sport seats. It’s not a track weapon, but it corners well enough and looks like it means business — kind of like a gym instructor in a Hugo Boss suit.
