Mercedes-Benz A-Class, CLA, GLA and GLB special editions bring more kit for same cash

Mercedes-Benz Australia has announced special editions of some of its smallest and most affordable vehicles, bringing more equipment for no additional cost.

The company says the Special Edition package adds as much as $4800 value in extras and is available on the A-Class sedan and hatch, CLA Coupe as well as the GLA and GLB SUVs.

The Special Editions are on sale in Australia from today, July 9, 2025. 

The extras include Manufaktur Alpine Grey solid paint previously not available on any of the models chosen for the Special Edition treatment, as well as Manufaktur metallic paint options – usually $1600 or more – at no extra charge.

Adding to the exterior look is a Night Package, with visual elements including high-gloss black side skirts and exhaust tips, while AMG alloy wheels unique to the Special Editions are also standard. 

The A-Class and CLA-Class Special Edition are fitted with 19-inch ‘five-twin-spoke’ alloy wheels, while the GLA and GLB versions come with a 20-inch 10-spoke design.

Cabin upgrades include contrasting grey stitching across the door trims, dash and seats – where there are matching grey seatbelts – while all ‘200’ models come with a panoramic sunroof, which is already standard on 250 models. 

The Special Edition GLA gets light longitudinal-grain aluminum trim with the GLB gaining ‘carbon-structure’ interior finish.
