Template:Kart-infobox The GLA is a luxury compact SUV manufactured by Mercedes-Benz which appears as a DLC-exclusive kart body in the Mercedes-Benz × Mario Kart 8 downloadable content pack available for Mario Kart 8. It changes color depending on the driver, having nine different color schemes total. It is thus one of the two DLC vehicles along with City Tripper to change colors. The GLA offers higher weight and traction, but lower acceleration, handling, and mini-turbo; it shares its stats with the Badwagon, Standard ATV, Tri-Speeder, and Steel Driver.
In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it can be unlocked randomly by collecting coins.
Mario driving the GLA appears as one of the many Costume Mario power-ups in Super Mario Maker. It is unlocked when players clear the Mercedes-Benz Jump'n'Drive event course.
