Now we are 9 years later and see it from a different angel. The MB is still a good looking and impressiv car. The Q7 looks a bit older and a bit more boring this times. After many Audis I swapped to Mercedes and I like them more now. Maybe I just getting older. There is a say: There are cars and there is Mercedes. You have to drive them a while to know why and even then, you can't tell why you feel that way.

Mercedes GL is awesome with amazing features.

Best car review ever! Whoever wrote the script has delved deeply into majestic Literature.

Don't know which version of the GL was tested her. Mine lowers automatically at speed, active cornering keeps it totally flat. Driving the two it was just no context, and I haven't even started talking about interior space. Guess Mercedes has listened and updated the 2013 model where it should have...

The gl looks much beter tham q7 and is much more luxury car...

If the q7 is not a good fuel economy then I will stick will Benz but I like the Q7 design better

Gl super

I have a gl and no, it takes the corners much better than the q7

his voice belongs to a documentary about birds in the amazon

Yeah I do but its always good to know youre vehicle is capable of doing off roading tasks, thats an important reason why people buy 4x4s

i saw a video of a Q7 going up a 50 degree incline. it did it just fine!

Never heard of "Ordi" before...

My friends dad has one of these! Their nice,The merc

with its twoooo point three tons driving weight it can hit 60 mph in niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine point ooooooooooone seconds!

GL Class!

Both cars are excellent and I believe that humans have different opinions of which one looks better I would choose the g-class for the interior and the exterior beauty that it has

gl350 all day

GL baby!

What's the model of the GL?

This guys voice is great

I would take any of those two.

he whistles while he talks...impressive!

GL #1

Mercedes is way better Audi doesn't know how to make trucks but they now how to make cars Mercedes is way better

Merc is the Best ! ! !

Great, Deadpan narration.

Hope to see this test on a couple of 2017s.

I love how he thinks those suvs are as big as they come. Look at ford expedition,excursion,chevy tahoe, suburban. Wayyyyy bigger.

Good video

no gl is better better better

I want one of those Mercedes Benz 450 GL.

Funny how the American definition of large is totally different than everywhere else in the world 😂 The GL could be classified as large but definitely not XL, and the Q7 would be a midsize SUV in the States. Over here it's not uncommon to see F250's being used as daily drivers... depending on model, they're up to 6 1/2m long and 2m tall🙄

For those who say that Mercedes is crap, they are wrong, my father has the same truck and it is not bad at all, people feel pretty for saying that a luxury car is not good, as if they have a lot of money

The Q7 Wins this race, Maybe next time Mercedes!!! :-)

Mercedes, of course!!! 😎

ive had an 07 gl 450 for 170000 miles its an amazing car the fuel economy is that of 9 mpg (i have a lead foot) and iv had to replace both air ride bags 3 times on each side it eats through air ride bags and springs (about 890 to replace one side 1600 to replace both rear and same for the front) all in all i love the car i test drove a 2018 gls 550 and it felt too electronic the only thing i wish for on the gl is more horsepower and faster gear changes

So which of the two is the better choice for Oxfam/Save the Children Aid Workers?

Hello bro what is the cost of Benz GL car cost

Mercedes GL very well oiled luxury machine. Exceptional comfort! after you drove the GL the Q7 feels like a garbage truck.

Every country makes different kinds of cars so you can't say this country makes a better car or this country should stop making cars. Some people like big husky cars and some like small little coupes! You can't compare a dodge pickup to a Ferrari!

This guy has never seen a chevy suburban... lmao

Wait, so the Q7 wins because it is better on the road, but they are 4x4's and are designed for off-roads?

Yes ok, but what's to say people can't just buy estate cars instead? With a 4x4, even family oriented ones like these, it's good to know that you're driving a vehicle which has the capability to take you off road if you are faced with such a situation. What I was saying with my comment is that this test should be based on their off roading capabilities, not their practicality. Or even both, but because they are off road vehicles, they should be primarily tested for their off road use.

Bring the GL 550 with a 5.5 382HP V8 then we will see who is slow.

Both are great cars but expensive to maintain them

Yes an SL for the single guy but a GL for the family guy who wants a sports car performance characteristic.

The Merc GL is probaby the best family merc ever build. Simply better than the sedans.

Mercedes fog light burnt out at 3:38. Which is better vehicle Audi or Mercedes?

I take Mercedes 😎👍

Never have I heard it pronounced 'or-di! 😂

Who wrote the dialogue for this ? "Cute" wing mirrors, "Baleful " headlights, and an interior like an "orbital glider" - whatever that is ?

Just take the Audi Q7 , it's a unique car

audi wins

Timothy Lovejoy talking?

The Mercedes may be luxurious but the audies are so so so so soooooooooooo much better looking and we chose the audi q7 over the newest gl

This guy said this is the big as they come have seen a Chevy suburban or Escalade ext

LOL Morgan Freeman!!!!:)

the GL is no question a much better value an package 1st class forget the audi Q7 awkward not a real off road just a wanabe GL....

they are called sports utility vehicles, they are not made for off road what so ever, they made them so that they can go off road but they are ment to be driven on road, audi a6 and a8 are both 4 wheel drive but again they are for road use

he said mercedes, more space, more confort, more luxury and better for off road

I own a gl320cdi I love it but wish it was the 420cdi.

Gl

Q7

that is the older Q7 though and the brand new GL

Fuck Audi it's just a fancy Volkswagen. I luv u mercedes the best or nothing.

I dont know....but its prettier and COLLER...THAN Q7 ,Q7 can you tell me what is the production year ... Of Bout Cars.....Thank You

watching this while indulging in some "valley of the dear"

Q7 is good but GL 350 is best

they actually do come A LOT bigger than this lmfao

Merc is much better car. Q7 looks like 1950's design - out of date.

orbital glider?

Ordi Q7 WTFFF?

I love you GL

Loaded

microsoft sam has improved

0:54 Cipa

no they are designed for off road, jeep wrangler is designed for off road these aren't, these are family cars

the Benz wind.

Its funny how he pronounced "Audi".

verrückt ja ,

Q7 with a max speed of 216 kilometres an hour? I am surprised!

My Q7 in black please....

Some twat smashed my ml up last night so I'm getting a gl next too many q7s on the road and I think the tricked out gl look better than the q7

An Audi is a VW with led headlights. Mercedes is waaay better.

Subaru has best all wheel driven system in cars now. Symmetric all wheel drive. Volvo has best rust protection among all production cars now. It has also longest lasting engines and best safety and comfort. D5 diesel can easy make 700 000 km. The same like Mercedes, but Mercedes rusts much more than Volvo. Most reliable is Honda, Subaru Mazda and Toyota. Most satisfied clients has Lexus. German cars are not best in any discipline. Maybe only in price - they are most expensive.

you know 90% of buyers out there who pay so much for that car will never ever take it off road@8150shaf

audi q7 👍👍😎

never heard audi pronounced this way

Mercedes Benz the king of the cars

"crazy" lol

Q7 for me

5.9 meters? :p you mean 5.0.

Back when cars were actually cars

Guys... Audi is not a fancy Volkswagen... So a Lamborghini is a fancy audi? A Ferrari is a fancy Fiat?

люди, помогите купить GL. Пожалуйста...

De gl is so strong

GL super

Ok so I have both in my driveway. I wanted the gl and my wife wanted the q7. Now she steals my vehicle constantly. I wish we never purchased that out of date boring looking q7. Mercedes has better looks, more comfort, more cargo. After time the q7 does not handle as good as it use to. Last I want to see the q7 attempt to achieve 30mpg like the gl class does. At worst my turbo diesel gl gets 28 on the highway. So this is my non biased review having both. Didn't know which direction to go in the beginning. Gl class hands down. Interior also held together better. No noise.

I choose Mercedes

GL wins this battle... :D i mean he is HIGHER,,faster,, ;)
