Is the power of the GLB200 sufficient?
1 Answers
The Mercedes-Benz GLB200 is equipped with a small-displacement 1.3T turbocharged engine, delivering 163 horsepower, which is adequate. Here are the extended details: Transmission: The maximum power is achieved at 5500 rpm, with a maximum torque of 250 Nm, and the maximum torque range is from 1620 to 4000 rpm. It uses a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Description: The 1.3T engine of the Mercedes-Benz GLB200 may not be exceptionally powerful, but it provides sufficient acceleration for daily driving, which is quite acceptable considering the engine's displacement. The transmission performs reliably, with precise timing for gear shifts, and in most cases, the smoothness is comparable to that of an AT transmission. Advantages: The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission responds quickly. When the accelerator pedal is pressed deeply, the transmission can downshift by 2 or 3 gears, and the engine speed immediately rises above 4000 rpm. The gear shifts are fast and very smooth, with almost no noticeable jerking in stop-and-go traffic conditions.
