Discover the best 2025 Mercedes-Benz family cars in Texas. Explore GLB, GLE, GLS, GLA & E-Class models built for safety, space, and luxury at Ed Hicks Imports.
Texas families know the value of a vehicle that can do it all. From school runs in the suburbs to summer road trips across the Hill Country, you need a car that offers space, safety, and comfort — without giving up the luxury and driving experience that sets Mercedes-Benz apart. Fortunately, the 2025 Mercedes-Benz lineup has several models that balance practicality and sophistication, making them ideal family companions.
Below, we’ll explore the best Mercedes-Benz family cars for 2025, including the GLA, GLB, GLE, GLS, and E-Class. All of these cars are available in a variety of trims and engine configurations to suit different lifestyles.
For smaller families or those who want a versatile city-friendly SUV, the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLA is a strong choice. It comfortably seats five and offers up to 50.5 cubic feet of cargo space when the rear seats are folded. Compact on the outside but roomy enough inside for everyday errands, the GLA comes standard with advanced driver-assistance tech and the intuitive MBUX infotainment system.
It’s the perfect balance of maneuverability and modern luxury for young families or couples who want their first Mercedes-Benz family car.
If you need a little more room without stepping up to a midsize SUV, the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLB delivers. This SUV offers seating for five standard, or up to seven with an optional third row — rare in its class. With 62 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, the GLB is a natural fit for carpools, kids’ sports gear, and grocery hauls.
The 2025 GLB blends safety and versatility with standout features like Active Brake Assist and Blind Spot Assist. Available 4MATIC® all-wheel drive gives added confidence for unpredictable Texas weather, and families can choose from multiple trims for the right mix of efficiency and performance.
The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE is often seen as the best Mercedes SUV for family life thanks to its spacious design and high-end features. With seating for five standard and an optional third row, it’s a flexible option for growing families. Behind the second row, you’ll find 33.3 cubic feet of cargo space, expanding to 74.9 cubic feet with the seats folded.
Inside, the GLE feels like a luxury lounge: premium materials, available heated and ventilated seats, customizable ambient lighting, and rear-seat entertainment options. The GLE is available in several trims — including versions with enhanced performance and efficiency — so families can tailor the driving experience to their needs.
For large families or those who simply want maximum space, the 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLS is the ultimate option. Seating up to seven passengers (or six with optional captain’s chairs), the GLS delivers true luxury in every row. Cargo space is equally impressive, offering 17.4 cubic feet behind the third row and a massive 84.7 cubic feet with the seats folded.
The GLS isn’t just about space — it’s also about sophistication. With tri-zone climate control, power-folding seating, and cutting-edge driver-assist features, the GLS 450 trim is the go-to choice for many families. Higher-performance trims are also available for those who want more power under the hood.
Not every family gravitates toward an SUV, and that’s where the 2025 Mercedes-Benz E-Class shines. Available as a sedan or wagon, the E-Class delivers a refined, comfortable ride with plenty of rear-seat space and the latest safety innovations.
The wagon variant is especially family-friendly, pairing SUV-like cargo capacity with sedan-like handling. Families who want elegance without the size of a full SUV will find the E-Class lineup a perfect fit — and like other models, it’s available in a variety of trims and powertrains to match different driving styles.
From compact SUVs like the GLA and GLB to spacious options like the GLE and GLS — plus the refined E-Class — the 2025 Mercedes-Benz lineup proves that luxury can also be family-friendly. Each model blends advanced safety, modern technology, and the comfort Texas families need for daily commutes, carpools, and long-distance travel. And with multiple trims and engine configurations across the lineup, there’s a version to suit every family’s unique needs.
