Dimensionally speaking, the GLB is roughly the same size as the Mercedes-Benz GLC300.

The GLB is way, way cuter, though.

The upright design means the GLB offers more cargo space than the more expensive GLC.

You can option the GLB with a third row of seats, but I wouldn't.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
