The 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class hides station-wagon virtues behind its charming SUV-like body.

Chunky body
Sliding second-row seat
Lots of technology
Right-sized

Cons
Tight third-row seat

Pros
Compelling base price,
cool infotainment setup,
roomy for first and second-row passengers.

Cons
Not much in the way of standard equipment,
sluggish throttle response,
tight passenger space in optional third row.
