2025 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB GLB250 4MATIC

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate and an auction primary-damage classification of “STRIPPED.” Stage 1’s photo-based assessment supports the “STRIPPED” classification because major front-end components are missing. However, the salvage certificate status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The vehicle has extensive missing components at the front. The hood, complete front bumper and fascia, grille, both headlamp assemblies, and both outer front fender panels are absent. Exposed brackets, wiring, inner front structure, and other underlying components are visible. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag and the lower driver-side dashboard airbag are also deployed. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class GLB 250 4MATIC SUV with all-wheel drive. It is equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 221 horsepower and an eight-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Mexico. The extent of the missing front-end parts and deployed airbags indicates that a substantial repair and replacement process will be required. The condition of components not identified in the findings—including the engine compartment, cooling system, suspension, steering, electrical systems, restraint-system modules, and structural areas—cannot be determined from the available information and should be verified through a comprehensive physical inspection and diagnostic evaluation.
