The Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top, part # HRF2 would work great on your GLA250.
This bike carrier is designed especially for vehicles that have a rear spoiler like your SUV has. The # HRF2 can carry 2-bikes that weigh up to 35-lbs each. The rack will fold up for easy storage when not in use.
If you plan on carrying three bikes you can use part # HRF2-3.
If you are planning on carrying bikes with alternative frames like kids bikes or women's bikes I recommend using an adapter bar like part # 64005. This attaches between the seat post and the handlebar stem and allows the bike to be carried more level in the carrier while providing additional ground clearance. I have attached a product review video for this adapter bar.
