Hi Nick, please do u know if there is a way to control passenger front seat from the driver control buttons on the driver door? Control I mean bring forward or backwards and decline or upward.

Where do you plug it into the car?

What are the cons about this device ?

I was driving my 2019 C300 home from purchasing it. Suddenly, my car started to veer to the right. I scared the crap out of me. What startled me more was when a car flew past a quarter of the way into my lane. The car had sensed it coming and pulled out of the way. The part that bothered me was that if it notified me it was doing it, I didn’t recognize it. I hope they’ve done something about that. I don’t know maybe there isn’t time…

Is it possible to hear any sounds inside your car remotely using your Mercedes me app?

Ey up I’m having a bit of trouble getting the apps I want present on the screen with Apple CarPlay, I’ve set it up in focus and it activates focus when starts up but doesn’t show apps just shitty one I never use can anyone help would really appreciate any info?!

Who makes that 1.3 engine? Mercedes use some Nissan/Renault motors and their 1.3 petrol has a terrible reputation for self destructing after the thermostat housing blows around 40k.

When you are driving, you can also ask it to "turn on passenger seat heating" .. if you want a sweaty passanger ;)

I’m always polite to computers. I want them to remembers that for when they take over…😁

How do u turn this on, on an E class w213 70reg night edition

Hello Nick, I always enjoy your videos, they are always educational and fun to watch, could you also delve deeper into digital lighting, I am very curious about that, thank you in advance

This is so ugly. Wouldn’t want this for free.

found the new Mercedes Benz e class 2024 with 4Matic (AWD)? option, standard benzin

I have sworn at Hey Mercedes more than once. I don’t find my Hey Mercedes all that helpful and as I said, and I let it know what I thought. It’s response was “we have to work on our relationships”. I did laugh and the response did lower my temperature in that moment, but I still don’t find it particularly helpful in the moment. I find reaching for the button or touching the screen as quick and less frustrating. One other thing, purchasing the annual Mercedes Me feature and the options that come with it is quite different in North America than in Europe. I find the 20 some dollars I have to pay a month is hardly worth it. My features are remote start, location, lock unlock, horn, map updates and that is about it. Features such as Apple Car play meagre at best as I can’t even get Utube or Internet access. Still love my car though.

Halloo sir... I want fo buy my first "luxury" car and I don't know which one to choose... I'm between the CLA 250 4matic with full extras,C Class 300 4matic with 90% of extras and the E Class 200 rear wheel drive with less extras. I'm 25 years old guy and in don't have kids,dogs,wife so i dont need a big car but my heart...😂😂😂 Tell me your opinion if you want, which one is better for a young guy!!!

I was an apprentice motor mechanic in the sixties. I had a number of quick cars including a Mini Cooper. Lights were poor, and then along came Halogen replacement lamps. Wind forwards, 57 years. I now have a Merc A class, A200 premium plus with digital lighting. I hadn’t a clue what active digital lighting was, let alone knowing my car was equipped with it. What a revelation. I have had the car from new and it is 12 months old. I recently had to make a late night journey, on a mixture of roads, A, B and Motorway. What an experience, the lighting was to say the least, superb. No requirement to keep switching between main and dipped beam.

Laptops can be scanned for - my care was broken recently with just the laptop stolen. The laptop was in the bootspace, out of sight. So never leave them in the car unattended.

Because 'MERICA

Nice motor. I currently drive a different brand (Hyundai) which is PHEV. In winter, I select 'hybrid' to ensure the engine comes on more regularly to demist, and to warm the cabin: when you set your heater controls it tends to do this automatically. Mine seems to work the same as the MB to save EV mode for city/town use - I guess that's a fairly universal scenario. One thing the Hyundai does specifically is that when you are in ECO hybrid mode, it keeps the battery up to 13% so that it saves some power for when you need to boot it; but in SPORT mode, it actually ensures it charges up to 20% so that you reserve even more battery power for the livelier mode. Does the MB work in a similar way? I think PHEV will be the way forward for many years to come, until the charging infrastructure improves across the country, but I like the MB in that the newer models seem to have larger batteries for the PHEV. My Hyundai only has 36 miles electric range, but the more modern PHEVs seem to nearly double this (like some MB I looked at). This really is the way forward for many.

Can i have the same functions if i just use my mobile phone data as a hotspot?

In the 2023 GLC models latest version there is no need to say hey Mercedes- just give a command

I hope you’re not in the Sytner Group. Anyone can ask me why.

My GLA250e doesn’t have “Hybrid” mode but it has “Eco” and “Comfort” modes which seem to work differently to the way you have described. For example, neither completely holds the electric drive till the battery is exhausted but they switch between both the engine and electric motor according to the pattern of driving and speed you are maintaining. This seems a more intelligent use of the electric power and petrol engine. For example, on say a 60 mile mixed A road and motorway journey, the battery power will kick in for low constant speeds and for the initial move-off from standstill (say at lights) but once cruising at a higher speed petrol power will take over. No doubt the computer has worked out that this is the most economic use of both systems. It also fits with what I understand which is that battery power is less efficient at high speeds (or am I wrong)? If I want to replicate for any journey the Hybrid mode you describe (to use all the electric power stored in the battery before switching over to the petrol engine) then starting-off and remaining in “Electric” mode will do just that. However, that may not be the most economic use of the electric/petrol power available.

I was the driver of the transporter that dropped it off and collected it

I see what you did there with the soft closing door at the end 🤣🤣

Does this plugin hybrid uses fuel ?

Question, once you have been running on electric and the batttery is depleted and you go on to engine, what is the best way to get the engine to charge the battery as your driving.

Why would I ever want to use the "hold battery" mode. Isn't it always best to use the electricity first? (cheaper & better for environement)

Can I get w3w on my 18 plate gle

How about the health of the combustion engine. When i go out of the town, I drive in sport mode, or in battery hold with manual transmission. Because I dont think for the combustion engine is ok to power up and shutdown so often. If my combustion engine is cold and then start and go to 5000rpm? then shutoff and electric come again. This I think it is a problem. And for the combustion engine in the long run...

Hi! Can you change the order of the modes in the menu? Yours are in a different order. Thanks in advance!

Hate the looks , the previous version looked sexy. This one is just meh.. avg looking mid size suv Japanese Korean design.

I don't understand manufacturers' infatuation with electronic door latches. I imagine the engineers have "developed" a way of mechanically accessing the vehicle if the battery dies, but for safety reasons, they need a mechanical back-up inside the vehicle in the event of an emergency. Some manufacturers hide them in inconvenient places, which, in an emergency will probably be the cause of death, but in the Cybertruck's case, it is more convenient than the electronic release button. What's the point?

Thoughts, one of the ugliest vehicles I've ever seen. Would I photograph is yes, but not because I think it's nice. More because it's a spectacle. Also, I'm not sure it's the weight that stops it being sold here. It'll certainly have a significant effect on widespread adoption but anyone with the right license can drive. What does prevent it being here is how quickly it'll kill you if you're a pedestrian. I don't believe it meets NCAP standards for pedestrian impact.

Hi Nick have watched most of your videos I am a first time Merc owner I bought amg45s new having had it a year what a great car it replaced my 911 drives and handles as well if not better I am know in my seventies and still enjoy cars thanks for all the information you pass on I know you would like 45s it’s worth the money regards Toj

Some cars [possibly early MB hybrids] had a specific battery regeneration mode. Instead of holding the battery level at the current level it would use only the motor to actively top it up so you could achieve a full charge given sufficient mileage. Useful if your electric range was depleted when you set off. Can this car not achieve this?

It’s been a year and there is no way for me to customize my dashboard on Volvo. I’m pissed

I have a CLA 250e , super car pity the battery autonomy only gives me 50 km , should be at least 100 , although I have read the new ones have a 120 km autonomy

Great video again , thx 👍👍🙋‍♂️

I will never goto electric

This is insane, i was just thinking about this yesterday what the diffrent modes were for. I did test it yesterday aswell but i couldnt find out exectly what they did so big thanks to this video Nick. One thing i was abit confused about is that u cant have a mode thats only use petrol and no electric at all, then u need to use the battery hold mode, right? I really do love ur channel, ive been subbed for like 6 months now just before i bought my new AMG 250 E and u have helped me with alot of tips and trix. So please keep on doing these kind of videos cus ill enjoy them every single time u post new ones. Travel safe bud 😁🥰

It’s a shame it always starts on electric, it would be great to be able to customise my own car without having to press a button every time

I love those videos even tho i don’t own a Mercedes

my 2021 A250e used to combine engine and electric however it saw fit during trips that where longer than what the battery could reach. This was great because it really optimized the usage of the two. But for some reason now after 3 years of owning this car, it has stopped doing that and is going electric until it just runs out. after which it goes to combustion engine. I cant find any reason why it would do this :S

On the Hybrid mode, it automatically switches between electric and gas automatically by analysing the route you put on navigation aiming to minimize the consumption and improve efficiency. It does not work on Google Maps etc though, it only works with Mercedes's own navigation system. So the Hybrid mode has nothing with acceleration etc, it's for efficency but it is tied only to Mercedes Navigation unfortunately (probably because Mercedes does not want their system talk with 3rd parties and share details of the car).

Hi nick, have you heard of many issues with the regenerative breaking on the eq models or eqc in particular? Mine will cut out over a bump and the abs kicks in. Also recently hit a bump and went straight into coast mode. Just wondered if you or anyone else knows the issue as it’s hard to replicate when taken into the dealership to diagnose the fault. Thank you

scara a furat-o de la Aro!
