Mercedes Benz GLC - review - is it just too expensive?

Күн бұрын

This is the all-new Mercedes GLC 2023. Mercedes-Benz first introduced the GLC in 2015 as a direct competitor of the Audi Q5 & BMW X3. Gorgeous interior, beautiful and elegant exterior - the AMG line is the cherry on the cake!
There is plenty to choose from when it comes to the engines - there is petrol, diesel, plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and mild hybrid (MHEV). I'm testing the model GLC 200 which has a 2.0 L, 4-cylinder petrol engine under the bonnet. We also have a small electric motor which makes this a mild hybrid (MHEV). All new GLC models come with a 9-speed gearboxes and all are four-wheel drive.
A lot has changed in the new Mercedes GLC but enough to justify its hefty price tag?

@@AnnaOnRoads Hi, I would like if you don't mind telling me your opinion about something else. I was in the category of large luxury seven-seater suvs. I like two cars, the Mercedes gls and the Cadillac Escalade (which you find difficult in Europe). I think from what I have seen and read that the gls is clearly a better car overall than the Cadillac, especially in terms of absolute build quality, attention to detail, luxury equipment. but on the other hand I like the Cadillac with its size, its spaces and its appearance (it is not beautiful but very impressive). I want to ask if you have any picture of the two cars and if so what is your opinion. thanks for your time.

@AnnaOnRoads Жыл бұрын

@@user-xl2dg9kp2b My opinion is very similar to yours. The GLS is a lot more luxurious in comparison to Escalade. I have actually reviewed the Escalade in the past. The GLS will offer you more comfort, a far more superior infotainment system and overall more practicality. But I do think the Escalade is a lot more unique, especially in Europe. Escalade is badass ;-)

Great review and video Anna. That new GLC looks classy from outside to inside. Really like that grill with all those mini Mercedes stars and I like the footplates which adds to the style but I love those alloy wheels it just finish the supreme looks. I remember a friend was talking about interior of a car and when he said it was red and black I was like no that sounds a horrible combination but when I saw it I was amazed how it just works so very well. And in that GLC it's just stunning but I guess you wouldn't expect anything less from Mercedes. But shame about the cupholders not working. Well I guess when you want a posh and classy SUV you got to pay for the class and quality and plus the name. Well keep up with the great work and all the best Anna. :-)

@corio18 Жыл бұрын

Objective? We may not be seeing the same video. Just as an example: that massive screen in the middle to control EVERYTYHING... all she has to say is "gorgeous". What about usability? What about the fact that you have to take your eyes off the road in order to see the screen where you wanna tap? I got tired of her reviews because all is "gorgeous" and 0-100km/h time. Her videos feel more of lifestyle/fashion rather than actual vehicle technical review.

Had one as a company car, liked it so much I bought it when it was time to hand it back. Still a joy to own and drive, such a lovely car, feels so safe and solid, jusy a cocoon from the world. This new one seems even better. Only problem I have is the full lock judder, not sure if they have fixed it also the cheap sweaty vinyl seats article they have on the cheaper models.

Little capable thing, I've taken it on a proper off road. Loooooved it! The GLC is a beautiful car but it's a heavy SUV, it would suit those who drive mainly on straight roads and seeking comfort. Is it a bit soulless? Probably. I would still go for the X3, but that's my pure personal preference xx
