The updated 2017 Mercedes GLA SUV has been revealed at the ongoing Detroit Motor show 2017.  The refreshed car wears tweaked bumpers, a newly designed grille and different alloys. The pre-facelift GLA's optional bi-xenon headlights have been replaced by LED items. New standard springs place the body 30mm higher than the outgoing model, giving it a more rugged look.

As before, the cabin features an eight-inch infotainment system but there are new dials and needles behind the steering wheel. There’s also a chrome finish for the electric seat controls and centre console stowage compartment surround. For India, the refreshed GLA is likely to continue with the same set of petrol and diesel engine options.

The GLA gains a new range-topper called Yellow Night Edition. It comes with black exterior paint, yellow highlights and sits on alloy wheels wearing the same colour scheme.

Artico leather and Dinamica microfibre material wrap the seats of Yellow Night Edition cars and are joined by an AMG Performance steering wheel in the cabin. Door sills, floor mats and air outlets are also finished with yellow highlights.

The most potent model, the AMG GLA 45, gets similar visual updates and retains its turbocharged 2.0-litre engine with 371hp and 474.5Nm of torque on offer. There are, however, shorter gear ratios for the car’s seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox in gears three to seven.

Expect Mercedes to launch the refreshed GLA range in India soon.
