Ever been blinded by bright tail-lights and headlights at night?

Engineers at Mercedes-Benz have, so they've gone to work refining the light characteristics of the GLA-Class of baby SUVs as part of the model's mid-life update. Much like a smartphone, the tail-lamps now have multi-level brightness settings that automatically adjust according to ambient light levels. Super bright in the daytime for optimum visibility, the lights are at their dimmest in stop-start traffic at night, making life easier for people following the new model.

The car's headlights also represent a change in approach. New (optional) high performance LED headlamps trade blue-white illumination for warmer tones that are easier on the eye while removing the need to change light bulbs at any point in the car's working life.

There are plenty of changes between those head and tail-lamps, including new wheels, bumpers and finer details that update the GLA's looks while reducing drag.
