2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB is the newest rugged crossover

The sub-compact ute fits between the GLA and GLC and offers a bit of a butch profile.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

A third row is available, but it seems like that would be really cramped. Would you want to put two seats back here?
