FYI, a giraffe weighs like 2,800 pounds for a male (1270kg), so you don't want one to sit on you.

Somehow this guy has managed to be interesting enough to make me binge watch car reviews

Doug has never changed, If he had 0 subscribers he'd still be making the exact same videos the exact same way, never change man

Mercedes: Let's have a smaller product in our lineup and call it the A220 Airbus: Let's have a smaller product in our lineup and call it the A220

11:37 Ectually, yes it is Some examples: 1 Mile = 1760 Yards 1 Yard = 3 Feet 1 Foot = 13 Inches 1 Gallon = 231 cubic inches 1 Pound = ???? 1 kilometer = 1000 Meters 1 Meter = 100 Centimeters 1 Centimeter = 10 Millimeters 1 Liter = 1000 cubic centimeters 1 Liter of Water = 1 kilogramm

Doug is the type of guy who dresses up better for cheaper cars.

That "play button" is often referred to as an arrow. It's an arrow. Pointing. Like arrows do.

Coming soon to an airport rental lot near you.

I work at this dealership and I ran into doug when he was finished recording this video and I talked to him about cars for around 10 minutes and he was swearing like a sailor I swear to you guys

Cop: "How fast were you going?" Mercedes owner: 3 o'clock

Doug is a type of a guy who calls the number at the back of SNICKERS to express his view why peanuts were not salted

"Hey Mercedes" "How can I help you?" "It's been a while since...you know" "Do you have your credit card with you?"

Doug: I'm warm Mercedes: I am setting the temperature to 72 degrees CELSIUS

I thought about trading-in for an A-Class, but withholding information on giraffes is a deal breaker. Good looking out for the consumer Doug.

I think it’s sick half the people talking crap about it probably drive their moms car still 🤷🏽‍♂️

5:59 my Russian friend when I ask him if he wants Vodka

"Hey, Mercedes... What is your Doug Score?"

Doug the type of guy to call his girlfriend the "new entry level"

Mercedes Corolla 2019.

Seat kinetics is to stimulate blood flow to your lower extremities during a long road trips

As a Healthcare professional, I am sure the seat movements are for similar purpose as hospital mattress for bedridden patients: the shifting of pressure points allows for better blood circulation when one must be pressing against a surface for extended periods, such as long drives in the case of a car seat. This feature for bedridden patients is a real life saver as it prevents pressure ulcers, and even though you will never sit on a car as long as you might lay on a mattress, this feature sure sounds like it will help give your back and legs better circulation and thus less fatigue on longer trips. It think it's genius! Hope this helps those who wonder what this new Mercedes feature is for. 🙂

Doug the type of guy who uses the word "Refrigerator" instead of just shortening it to "Fridge"

Love the consistency in all your videos! Don't change

Doug: “I’m warm!” Mercedes: “Setting the temperature to 72 degrees” Me in Australia who uses Celsius: 👁👄👁

Anyone else bothered by the Mercedes voice saying “How CAN I help you?” But the screen says “How MAY I help you?”

Doug is the type of guy to review a Rolls Royce in a t-shirt but wear a nice looking sweater while reviewing the most basic Mercedes

I must say a huge thank you for reviewing cars and it helped me know about car WAYYYYYYY MORE

Great review as always from Doug! I also shot a video review of the 2019 Mercedes A250 4Matic Sedan AMG Line. Check it out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nq1hmriE397RZqM.html

Doug the type of guy to interrupt himself to save time

In 10 years they will be the most common car to see in Albania, 95% of those being stolen

My Kidney: “bro don’t leave me”

0:00 “TTHIS!”🤷🏻‍♂️

The arrow for the owners manual meant that the manual is hidden on top in another compartment in the glove box. It didn't mean that it is directly in the glovebox.

The Baby Mamma Whip lol

Just got a new subscriber, great review!

You know, here in Europe, the A class used to be a laughingstock, mocked for being ugly, overpriced and tremendously prone to rollover. An old time classic meme here was the A class having an additional set of wheels on the roof to fix the issue as an option. In all fairness, it was a poor attempt by Mercedes really failing to find a vibe to be a more casual, which is kinda preposterous with that kind of brand image and brand history. But recently, they really upped their game big time. I have the feeling that they want to directly compete with Volkswagen those days. Volkswagen went from the bottom-up in terms of price and features, while Mercedes seems to want to go the top-down way. At the moment here in France, they are marketting A class and B class like crazy, with a mantra about being Mercedes for actual people and not super rich, old people. I think that new A class is really nice in that prospect, directly targeting younger active potential customers, not in the market for an E or even a C class. There IS a market for people wanting some luxury in a compact car in Europe. The wealthiest people here live in city centers and not in the suburbs contrary to the USA. And since European cities are extremely compact compared to American ones, it's often a nightmare to go around and park with a full sedan. People with enough money don't want to be seen at a street corner with a Dacia Logan or Renault Twingo yet that market was not really properly targeted earlier. If Mercedes is able one day to have the luxury of an S class in a compact car, they'll win big time in Europe. For America, those cars will always be confidential I guess, since outside some rare densely populated places like NYC, there is still no real need for a compact car, as space is still plentiful.

Doug is the type of guy that calls a Mercedes cheap.

Doug the type of guy to buy a drone and then get arrested for stalking neighborhood women when infact he was checking out quirks of their cars.

Hey Doug, love your videos. Would it be possible when you have access to the window sticker could you attach a link to a picture of it? Please and thank you and love the videos!

Really good review, thanks man!

Doug is the type of guy who calls an arrow a play button.

km/h is definitely a better unit of measurement

Oh boy, you should definitely try the upcoming A45 S AMG with 421hp 👀 greetings from germany

I love that warning chime!! I hope all the new technologies makes it to the new s class

When you realize, that he bought his E63 AMG for 44k....

Doug the type of guy to spend his valentine's day with a mercedes. EDIT : And here im spending my valentine's day editing this damn video. F.

"A giraffe, how much does it weigh???" 😂😂😂😂😂

Wow the check engine light is already on for this new car...

A220 sounds like a highway in Britain

Doug is the type of guy to act real silly after having a few non-alcoholic beers🍺🍺🍺

I daily a 2019 a220 4matic, it's been a great little car. I do a lot of work in a city with tight parking so it's small size is nice, and because of the AWD, it's been pretty good for the Minnesota winters. The tech is also a MAJOR improvement over the COMMAND system in my 2010 C-Class. These are good cars, but I do miss having the three-pointed star hood ornament my C-Class had since it was the elegance/luxury styling package.

I always watch Doug videos at 1.5x and still feels like regular time.

Actually surprised on how nice the interior is. Makes me wonder what they cheaped out on. Besides that weak ass engine

North America includes Canada and they are actually getting the hatch and the sedan

I live in canada and you can get the a class sedan and hatch

Can tell me what tech does that cars included? Like Apple Car Play? Bose audio system, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert or auto pilot?

Just as an FYI...Once a Mercedes ME Connect account is set up for an owner the car will be able to answer the giraffe question : )

Doug the type of guy give this car and the Ferrari gtc4 lusso the same score (5) for styling

tries to turn on the window wipers goes into reverse

Hi Doug, love your videos.... have you done one on the Mercedes c300 w/205? I own one, and would love to get your opinion on it! Thanks!

But does the steering wheel still lack a “next track” button?

Love the column shifter. Everyone has gone away from them since they seem "low tech" and make you feel like you are driving an old pickup, but its still the best way. Frees up valuable space in the console area, simple as hell and intuitive. Way too many modern luxury cars have unnecessarily complicated shifters that use buttons or touch dials... NO ONE ASKED FOR THIS. Lol they're neat on the showroom but i cant imagine having to parallel park with a touch dial shifter.

15:15 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON

hey, I think you're missing a cool feature. these 2019 mercedes (i think the sl you reviewed has it also) have a trunk sensor under the rear to open/close the trunk with a kicking motion. you should try it out. i get a lot of enjoyment out of it :)

Doug is the type of guy to call, what are clearly directional arrows...play buttons.

Brand new Mercedes **Check engine light**

Excellent review! Lovely car A class 👍🏻

acceleration 0-60 mph six somethiong seconds "two out of ten" x,D

Scotty kilmer is watching this in his Toyota Celica laughing

"The CLA is no longer the entry level Mercedes Benz, it is replaced by the A Class at $32,500." The CLA came out at $29,900. My, how times have changed.

It's gon start raining on the highway and imma reverse 😂

Doug: hey Mercedes Car: how can I help Doug: I’m cooooooold Car: Then put another shirt in dummy

I shouldn’t have laughed as hard as I did at the “shocked back seat” joke.

Why isn't the US getting the hatchback?? It's much cooler IMO.

7:50 The technical term for that effect is "haptic feedback", if you were curious.

Damn, Doug savage with the ratings. Acceleration for a 4-door entry level saloon 6.5 seconds and he gives it a 2/10? Geez, that's Golf GTI level and close to some supercars from the 90's...Times change

Ugh the amount of young people who have a CLA 250 and think are they are better than you is staggering. I can only IMAGINE what this thing will bring

Just enough power to cruise around? In Europe you can buy e-classes with less power (184 hp) xD this a class is available with only around 120 hp as well. You became a bit crazy about what is an underpowered car after time...

The dash says “how may I help you?” But when Mercedes speaks she says “how CAN I help you” ....smh Mercedes you’re rude

Doug the type of guy to call a Mercedes “cheap”

That warning chime sounds frantic. I don't like it. It's like an 80's horror movie at the scene where the last girl alive is trying to start the car and get away.

For the cheapest model this looks VERY good, especially from the interior

The diagram is useful, Mercs have had the manual all over the place. Some have it in the trunk, and my w211 have it in the back seat armrest, where you said it was a general storage compartment in the E55 amg video a few weeks ago. Thats the room for the manual and service book.

Hi Doug, Great Video and Review! I am a subscriber! May I ask your honest opinion about buying Brand New Car vs Used Car for Mercedes ? Which option is the best option ? I am in the Bay Area of San Jose. Cheers,

Mercedes: Online Service Currently Unavailable Please check your Mercedes me settings. Doug: A GIRAFFE! HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH? Mercedes: Online Service Currently Unavailable Please check your Mercedes me settings. Also Doug: This system isn't quite as good as Siri.

*Scotty Kilmer begins Angrily filming another anti mercedes vid *

Then you get to the end of the video and it's more jokes, this is probably the funniest I've seen you be Doug lol

Can you review the X Class Mercedes? I would love that! Cheers!

Doug is the type of guy to get himself locked in a motorcycle

Mr DeMuro they did make a fun A class, in europe we have A45. Good performance, competes with cars like s3 or m140i!

Hi @Doug DeMuro, I really enjoyed your review of this new A class. I wanted to point out one thing with regards to the " Hey Mercedes" test. When you were asking it about the giraffe, the reason it was not working is for online features to work, the car must first be connect to a Me Mercedes Connect account. This will enable the online search feature for "Hey Mercedes" and that was also shown on the the screen when you were asking it, it was displayed as "Online Services Currently Unavailable Please check your Mercedes me Settings." I tried the same question on my A class, once it was connected, and it worked. I am also able to ask it weather related questions. Again, I really enjoyed this review, and can't wait to see your GLE review.

I rented a 2020 Benz C class for 2 weeks in LA. It was a nice ride, but the infotainment system not being touch screen was odd. I also didn't like the stalk for the gear selector. After 2 weeks of driving I got use to it, but I still prefer a center type shifter. It's safety features were top notch. On our departure date, my girlfriend was getting off the 405, she was.... distracted and the auto breaking jarred me from my nap. Saved a front collision which is amazing. Especially with all of the spoiled brats driving their Benz while texting. It had ample power for a 4 cylinder and it made navigating SoCal traffic a breeze. Very responsive. When just puttering it around, it was quiet and docile, but when quick get up and go was needed, the turbo I4 really surprised me. It wasn't an AMG or Vette, throw you back in the seat experience. It was a snappy quick acceleration that will serve the average driver well. I really think the new Benz are an amazing bargain. I don't think I would own one for longer than 3 years, as i feel that the cost of the impending repairs would quickly add up. Trade it in for the new model. Rinse wash repeat.

The interior is incredible. So clean and intuitive!

Of course km/h is better than mph...

Bro I had to stop the video to laugh at your frustration with the giraffe question 😂😂😂😂

Your newest mercedes A class first model has the check engine and airbag lights ON.

I JUST SAW ONE THIS MORNING! I wasn’t sure what I was looking at!

Scotty Kilmer's worst nightmare!

They should bring the hatchback version to the USA...

I have an E class 2017, a v class 2016 and an A class 1999 and i really love that little a class it's awesome! I just keep it and maintain it and hope my kids will drive it someday.
