Monochromatic GLA Night Edition now available

MERCEDES-BENZ South Africa is proud to announce the arrival of the GLA Night Edition.

This special edition brings a new level of urban sophistication and rugged elegance to the premier compact SUV, combining the versatility of the GLA with a monochromatic, high-performance aesthetic.

Dominant Design in Alpine Grey

The GLA Night Edition stands out in the striking MANUFAKTUR Alpine Grey finish, a colour that perfectly accentuates the SUV’s muscular surfaces while being exclusive to this model. This edition is defined by its standard AMG-Line body styling, which emphasises its sporty character through power bulges on the bonnet and radiator grille featuring the Mercedes-Benz star pattern.

Exclusive to this model are:

  • Bespoke AMG Rims: Unique to the GLA Night Edition, these wheels are exclusively available on this model, providing a distinctive stance that sets it apart from the standard range.
  • The Night Package: A bold treatment of gloss-black accents on the wing mirrors, window surrounds, and roof rails, creating a seamless, darkened silhouette.
  • Signature Lighting: Standard LED headlamps and a sporty rear diffuser with LED taillights ensure the GLA remains an “emotionally appealing” sight, day or night.

A Cabin of High-Tech Luxury

The interior of the GLA Night Edition remains a benchmark for the segment, offering “class for every day.” The cabin architecture is inspired by futuristic design, featuring:

  • The Dual-Screen Command Centre: A freestanding dual-screen display – featuring a 10.25-inch central display-running the latest MBUX software for intuitive, voice or touch-controlled connectivity.
  • The Turbine Aesthetic: Three round, turbine-look air vents that bring a high-quality aviation feel to the cockpit.
  • Premium Touchpoints: A compact, Nappa leather steering wheel and a redesigned centre console that reflects the vehicle’s high-tech DNA.

Efficiency Meets Power

The GLA 200 Night Edition is powered by a refined engine producing 120kW and 270Nm of torque. This ensures that whether navigating tight city streets or cruising the open highway, the GLA provides a perfectly balanced driving experience that is “rigorously geared to customer wishes.”

Mercedes-Benz has further simplified the ownership experience by including high-value features as standard on this edition, such as the Parking Package with reversing camera, lumbar support seats, and the Mirror Package.

“The GLA has always been a favourite for the South African lifestyle,” says Alexandra Boavida Vice President Sales & Marketing Mercedes-Benz South Africa.

“With the Night Edition, we are offering a bespoke, ‘ready-to-wear’ package that combines the MANUFAKTUR Alpine Grey paint and exclusive AMG wheels to create our most visually compelling compact SUV to date.

Pricing: GLA 200: From R972 387 (incl vat) and 5 year / 100 000km service and maintenance plan.

As of 16 January 2026, the Mercedes-Benz GLA 200 Night Edition will be offered from: R10 799pm*
