Mercedes Benz Electric GLB - 1st Look

Welcome back to the channel! We are here on the Mercedes-Benz stand at the Brussels Motor Show 2026 for our first look at the all-new Electric GLB. Mercedes is shifting away from the EQB naming convention, bringing the GLB fully into the electric fold with a familiar but modernized design. This proper 7-seater remains one of the few premium electric SUVs with a smaller footprint that can accommodate a large family. From the stunning MBUX Hyperscreen to the clever sliding rear seats, we’re going to see if this €65,000 electric SUV is the ultimate luxury family hauler.
