Compare the2023 Jaguar F-PaceVS 2023 Mercedes AMG GLB

Both the F-Pace and AMG GLB have child safety locks to prevent children from opening the rear doors. The F-Pace has power child safety locks, allowing the driver to activate and deactivate them from the driver's seat and to know when they're engaged. The AMG GLB’s child locks have to be individually engaged at each rear door with a manual switch. The driver can’t know the status of the locks without opening the doors and checking them.

The F-Pace’s standard lane departure warning system alerts a temporarily inattentive driver when the vehicle begins to leave its lane and gently nudges the vehicle back towards its lane. A lane departure warning system costs extra on the AMG GLB.

Both the F-Pace and the AMG GLB have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, all wheel drive, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning, driver alert monitors and available around view monitors.

The F-Pace comes with a full 5-year/60,000-mile basic warranty, which covers the entire truck and includes 24-hour roadside assistance. The AMG GLB’s 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty expires 1 year or 10,000 miles sooner.

The F-Pace’s corrosion warranty is 1 year longer than the AMG GLB’s (6 vs. 5 years).

Jaguar pays for scheduled maintenance on the F-Pace for 5 years and 60,000 miles. Jaguar will pay for oil changes, lubrication and any other required maintenance. Mercedes doesn’t pay scheduled maintenance for the AMG GLB.

The battery on the F-Pace is in the trunk, which protects it from hot underhood temperatures that can degrade battery life. By keeping the F-Pace’s battery 20 to 30 degrees cooler, its life is increased by years. The AMG GLB’s battery is in the hot engine compartment.

The F-Pace R-Dynamic S’ standard 3.0 turbo/supercharged 6-cylinder hybrid produces 93 more horsepower (395 vs. 302) and 111 lbs.-ft. more torque (406 vs. 295) than the AMG GLB’s 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder. The F-Pace SVR’s standard 5.0 supercharged V8 produces 240 more horsepower (542 vs. 302) and 221 lbs.-ft. more torque (516 vs. 295) than the AMG GLB’s 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder.

On the EPA test cycle the F-Pace P250 gets better fuel mileage than the AMG GLB 35 (22 city/27 hwy vs. 21 city/27 hwy).

Regenerative brakes improve the F-Pace’s fuel efficiency by converting inertia back into energy instead of wasting it. The AMG GLB doesn’t offer a regenerative braking system.

The F-Pace has 6 gallons more fuel capacity than the AMG GLB (21.9 vs. 15.9 gallons), for longer range between fill-ups.

For better stopping power the F-Pace’s front brake rotors are larger than those on the AMG GLB:

For better traction, the F-Pace has larger standard tires than the AMG GLB (255/55R19 vs. 235/50R19). The F-Pace SVR’s tires are larger than the largest tires available on the AMG GLB (F:265/45R21 & R:295/40R21 vs. 255/40R20).

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the F-Pace offers optional 22-inch wheels. The AMG GLB’s largest wheels are only 21-inches.

The F-Pace offers an optional full size spare tire so a flat doesn’t interrupt your trip. A full size spare isn’t available on the AMG GLB; it requires you to depend on its run-flat tires, which limits mileage and speed before they are repaired. If a run-flat is damaged beyond repair by a road hazard your vehicle will have to be towed. Some tire options on the AMG GLB don’t have a run-flat feature, either.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the F-Pace’s wheelbase is 1.7 inches longer than on the AMG GLB (113.1 inches vs. 111.4 inches).

For better handling and stability, the average track (width between the wheels) on the F-Pace is 1 inch wider in the front and 2.4 inches wider in the rear than the track on the AMG GLB.

For better maneuverability, the F-Pace’s turning circle is 1.8 feet tighter than the AMG GLB’s (39.2 feet vs. 41 feet).

The F-Pace uses computer-generated active noise cancellation to help remove annoying noise and vibration from the passenger compartment, especially at low frequencies. The AMG GLB doesn’t offer active noise cancellation.

The F-Pace has 1.8 inches more front shoulder room and .9 inches more rear shoulder room than the AMG GLB.

The F-Pace has a much larger cargo volume with its rear seat up than the AMG GLB with its rear seat up (32.1 vs. 12.4 cubic feet). The F-Pace has a much larger cargo volume with its rear seat folded than the AMG GLB with its rear seat folded (70.4 vs. 62 cubic feet).

The F-Pace’s cargo area is larger than the AMG GLB’s in almost every dimension:

Pulling a handle automatically lowers the F-Pace S/R-Dynamic/SVR’s optional rear seats, to make changing between passengers and cargo easier. The AMG GLB doesn’t offer automatic folding seats.

The F-Pace has a 5291 lbs. towing capacity. The AMG GLB has no towing capacity.

Standard Trailer Stability Assist on the F-Pace uses the Dynamic Stability Control sensors to detect trailer sway, then uses individual brakes to counteract any swaying and help keep the tow vehicle and trailer steady. The AMG GLB doesn’t offer electronic trailer sway control.

The engine in the F-Pace is mounted longitudinally (North-South), instead of sideways, as in the AMG GLB. This makes it easier to service and maintain, because the accessory belts are in front.

Heated windshield washer nozzles are optional on the F-Pace to prevent washer fluid and nozzles from freezing and help continue to keep the windshield clear in sub-freezing temperatures. The AMG GLB doesn’t offer heated windshield washer nozzles.

To improve rear visibility by keeping the rear window clear, the F-Pace has a standard rear fixed intermittent wiper with a full on position. The rear wiper standard on the AMG GLB only has an intermittent setting, so in a hard rain visibility isn’t as good.

The F-Pace has standard heated front seats. Heated front seats cost extra on the AMG GLB. The F-Pace also offers optional heated rear seats to keep those passengers extremely comfortable in the winter. Heated second row seats aren’t available in the AMG GLB.

To quickly and conveniently keep personal devices charged without cables tangling and wearing out, the Jaguar F-Pace has a standard wireless phone charging system (Qi) in the center console. Wireless charging costs extra on the AMG GLB.
