What Mercedes-Benz GLA do most buyers choose?

The Mercedes-Benz GLA years with the most listings are 2025, 2026, and 2018.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choice, which can make it easier to compare trims, colours, and equipment. They also tend to be the years shoppers cross-shop most often, so you may find more pricing competition among listings.

What is the Mercedes-Benz GLA's resale value?

Most model years are down year over year, and several recent years show double-digit declines.

The smallest changes are concentrated in the older and 2023 model years, which suggests those versions have moved less sharply than the rest.

The 2015, 2023, and 2016 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
