February 2025 saw a slump in the Vietnamese automotive market, prompting several car manufacturers to introduce attractive incentives. Mercedes-Benz was one of them.
Similar to the previous month, in February, Mercedes-Benz offered a cash discount equivalent to 50% of the registration fee for two high-performance models: the Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic and the Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic.
Currently, the Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic is priced at 2.228 billion VND, while the Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic is listed at 1.818 billion VND. Thus, the incentives for these two models are valued at 111-133 million VND and 91-109 million VND, respectively.
Model | Production Year | Listed Price (VND) | Discount (VND) |
Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic | 2022 | 2,228,890,000 | 111,440,000 – 133,740,000 |
Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic | 2022 | 1,818,000,000 | 90,900,000 – 109,080,000 |
Mercedes-Benz offers discounts of up to 130 million VND to clear inventory.
It’s also worth mentioning that the Mercedes-Benz models on promotion this month are all 2022 productions. Therefore, the quantity and color options of these vehicles will be limited. This move is evidently an effort by the three-pointed star brand to clear out their inventory.
The promotional period for Mercedes-Benz’s offer lasts until February 28, 2025. The promotion is applicable in the following provinces and cities: Binh Duong, Can Tho, Da Nang, Hanoi, Hai Phong, Ho Chi Minh City, Khanh Hoa, Nghe An, and Quang Ninh. The program is available to end consumers who purchase Mercedes-Benz vehicles from authorized distributors nationwide.
Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic
The Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic was first introduced in the Vietnamese market in August 2021. It is the high-performance version of the 7-seater Mercedes-Benz GLB SUV. Meanwhile, the Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic was officially launched in Vietnam in 2022 as the high-performance variant of the compact A-Class range.
Both vehicles are powered by a 2.0L inline-4 turbocharged engine, producing 306 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a 7-speed AMG Speedshift 7G-DCT dual-clutch transmission and a 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
As a result, the Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 5.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km/h. The Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic achieves the same feat in 4.8 seconds.

Additionally, both luxury vehicles feature the latest MBUX infotainment system with a 10.25-inch central touchscreen and voice command functionality, activated by the phrase “Hey Mercedes.”
In reality, the Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 4Matic and Mercedes-AMG A 35 4Matic do not offer the highest discounts in the Vietnamese market for February 2025. Several other models surpass them, including the Subaru Outback (500 million VND), Subaru BRZ (364 million VND), Subaru Forester (150-220 million VND), Honda Accord (250 million VND), Volkswagen Touareg (270-310 million VND), and Volkswagen Tiguan (168 million VND).
