2021 MERCEDES-BENZ GLA GLA250-4M

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate indicating “more than 75% damage,” and the auction’s primary-damage classification is “REAR END.” These are auction designations and should be treated as unverified claims. Stage 1 reports that the visible rear-end damage supports the “REAR END” classification; however, the provided photos alone do not establish or verify that the vehicle has more than 75% total damage. The visible damage is concentrated at the left rear corner. The left rear bumper corner shows deformation, scuffing, and an irregular gap near the rear wheel and tail lamp. More extensive damage is present around the left rear quarter panel and bumper area, where the bumper cover is absent or torn away in sections, exposing internal components. The surrounding body and trim near the tail lamp and wheel opening are visibly deformed. The lower left and center portions of the rear liftgate have pronounced creasing and inward deformation around the license-plate mounting area. The lower rear bumper is also distorted, with displaced lower trim and a damaged left side. The VIN decodes as a 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class SUV, specifically the GLA250-4M trim, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline four-cylinder engine, seven-speed automatic transmission, and left-hand drive. The decoded vehicle was manufactured in Germany. A complete inspection is recommended to assess structural damage, bumper reinforcement and crash-management components, tailgate operation, lighting, wiring, sensors, wheel-area components, and any mechanical or safety-system damage not visible in the provided findings.
