Picked one up earlier this month. Great car, smooth ride and plenty of headroom. For anyone looking to pull the trigger on this car, a few things:
1-If you like the music, go for the upgraded sound system. I did not and I regret it.
2-Get the ambient lighting package. I have it and it is beautiful.
3-Get the premium package with the 10.25 inch screens. I also have it.
4-If you can, go for the AMG package. I have it and it adds an aggressive look (I have the night package like the vehicle that was reviewed).
5-I have the 3rd row seats. Doesn't take up much of the rear cargo when folded down, but is nice if you happen to have more than 5 passengers on occasion. Doesn't work for people over 5'5".
6-Wish I had the 2nd row side impact airbags, just as an added safety feature. Didn't come with the car I picked up.
7-Not sure if the adaptive suspension is necessary for $990, since this SUV should be for cruising primarily. Especially at 221hp.
8-I have heated front seats, but wish I had the ventilated seats also. Not a must have, but would've been nice.
I feel anything outside of this is not necessary, but if you have the extra cash, you can go for it. Mine was just under $50k, and came nicely loaded. Had I gotten the features I wanted, would've come to about $53K. Don't really miss the extra features I wanted, except for the sound system (tolerable for now). Hope this helps.
Congrats! Great job!
Did u get the sunroof? Cuz it looks good too
@@joshama3362 I did. Panoramic sunroof is a must for me, and probably for most. I don't think there are many that are made without the Panoramic sunroof.
Does this have an option for air ride suspension
@@thomasscialpi8330 it does have an option for an adjustable suspension.
Great review Joe! Even when Joe zonk's his head backing out of the rear seat area 14:05 it doesn't stop his flow and vibe! I'm twinking of getting one of these for my wife!
I was waiting for you to do a review on the GLB. Thank you ☺️
Hi Joe. Love watching your videos each and every day. I would want you to make a video about all the cars that you used to have in the past.
NICE WHIP!!!! Love the diversity in vehicles you feature!!! I just got my Raiti’s Rides T-shirt too....I’m ready to represent!!!! 👊🏾
Hey Joe! I had a GLK and until I test drove this GLB and I couldn't help it. I traded my GLK for the GLB and I am very satisfied with roomier interior, ride quality and just the overall features with options this vehicle comes with. Mines just under $50k and lots of ways to build this vehicle. Awesome review it helped me made my decision to make the transition. I've put Twinkies in areas my kid wouldn't know where their at lol! Shoppers! You wouldn't be upset if you decide to purchase it. Just option it enough that your pockets can afford. I have a metallic grey pearl exterior with black interior.
My mom just traded her 2013 GLK 350 in last night for the same exact spec model, except her’s has a brown interior. I found this 2022 one that she got on our local MB dealership website. It just came off the truck with only 6 miles on it and she test drove it and fell in love.
I love it and I’ll say why. I like it because of the design of the SUV and I love the white car color and with the tinted windows and I can’t leave out the black out rims I love those.
Another great review. Keep it up.
I’m hoping to go see one of these this weekend - our dealerships are due to reopen here in the U.K. We also have the AMG 35 model here too, which I’m looking forward to seeing.
Love the reviews
Thank you for always doing these videos! I love the snack references btw LOL
Love the humor u put into your reviews!! "Hangry"! Lol! Nice review! 😎👍
I loved the camera angle when you started driving it. Watching u drive with the steering wheel in shot is way better than just seeing over the windshield 👍
It helps when there is a sunroof to suction cup it to!
Great video! Great sound of Rochester upstate New York clear pronunciations! Keep up the good work!
Good presentation as always
You never disappoint, Joe! Keep up the good work.
I want this car and I will have it. Thank you so much for the great review ! I love it
Preciate it for the goodnight video
I love Twinkies in every vehicle you review!!
Nice Merc if you want a small daily run around. 7:26 new interior is very smart!
" 15 twinkies " that's the best line 😝
No one addresses the lack of fog lights, how good are run flat tires and as always how the audio system sounds 😏
This guy just sold my husband this car. Mercedes needs to give this guy some commission. Great video.
Good review, I like the spec of the car except I think you missed a major option in that you can get a 3rd row seat.
Keep coming back to the video. Might be time to replace my old pilot.
I love this GLB, Joe! Mercedes really killed it with this SUV.
Thanks Brian! I am so glad that you like this one.
Nice interior and exterior, wish it was a bit bigger for that price!
You did two reviews of the same model vehicle but missed the MBUX system, the steering wheel control pads, and the Off Road drive mode. Love your stuff though!
I'm in love with this SUV😍
Great review Joe! But I doubt the off-road ability of this GLB lol
Awesome review, thanks for sharing
Bavarian cream doughnuts 🍩. You’re classic, love your humor.
I’ve got the 2023 with all those add-ons except 3rd row. I love it
I’m not getting the whole Baby-G thing but it looks good in stormtrooper white/blk trim 🤣🤣
I think this is more of a baby gls doesn’t really look like a g wagon
Good thing it doesn't look like a G Wagon. Not a fan of that model at all.
I think he referenced the G Wagon because the GLB has squared off body.
It doesn't. Glb 250 I don't think it looks like a g wagon
GLB is nothing like a G wagon idk why he even made that reference, this is a baby GLS I’m surprised that someone who supposedly is knowledgeable with vehicles would completely miss like that
@@matthewsanabria3253 Wow,
I love my 2012 GLK 350. 89k miles so far. Im collecting it. But soon I'm going to collect this one too! 😁
Love the look of the GLK. too bad, no more. GLB is next closes in looks and function. Nothing comes close on GLB's function and size.
I love it , I’m definitely getting it soon 🙏🏾
How is it
Hey Joe, Mercedes calls those "power domes" on the hood. Good job!
i i
Im thinking about MDX or GLB ?
When will they finally provide a press vehicle with the 3rd row seats? The lack of one being provided is suspicious and concerning.
14:05 - Thumbs up just for keeping your cool after banging your head on the door frame! #toughguy! :D
Thanks Jen! The show must go on!
Great video , as always does this car feel solid??
Thanks Michael! It felt really solid!
YESSS TY JOE FOR THE GREAT REVIEW
You got it Moses!
Raiti's Rides finally a great review on the glb
Would love to see you review the EQB, the Mercedes EV that is about the same size as this bad boy
Love the interior
I cant decide between the GLB or acura RDX A spec
Very clean.
Less power than the Acura RDX yet this car blows it away from 0-60. Plus it looks amazing. German ingenuity at its best. Spec this car right to get it for somewhere in the upper $40s and you have a car that will eat the RDX’s lunch any day of the week - dollar for dollar
Looks great!
Love your reviews. The candy references are funny lol. Quick question, without going through every video, what is the best 3rd row suv?
For the money; Kia Telluride
@@hopefulee8402 space and ease? I was thinking palisade and pilot
@@airlinkssuspension5878 If you want Space, Palisade is great too. I haven't seen the new Pilot so I can't comment. Before the covid pandemic hit all the Kia Tellurides at my dealership were selling like hot cakes.
@@airlinkssuspension5878 pilot doesn’t have the space the Telluride has
This is a million subscriber quality channel.
damn dude I'm not going to lie that thing is pretty impressive & very good gas mileage for how big of a vehicle it is + 0-60 and 6sec flat? That thing will be just as fast as my Civic SI with a tune... I'm like 🤦♂️ after being tied with an SUV 🤔
Great one Joe!
Five months ago I perchas one and been having tires problem, not to mention I was driving it and it suddenly stop running with a full gas tank, the car did not start , I call road service and took it to the dealer and they stil have the car unable to maje it run, I got a call from the service manager with bad news saying that the car was contaminanted omg and said that to fix it cost me 15,000 out of my pocket becase the guarantee wouldn't comer it and I purchased an exteded 5 year, so now the dealer is not taking responsability and claming that me or some one might had put the wrong gasoline when no one put gas in my car and only use 91, any one with the same problem and is there any legal law that can help with this kind of car ? I only have the car for 5 months.
How much price ?
Good job 👍👍👍
Thank you for saying that!
Happy Friday Night Joe, $39,000 is not to bad for a starting price on a Mercedes.
I am thinking of purchasing a GLB.They are quite expensive in Australia $60k plus.They are a beautiful car.
What’s up Joe!
Love it,would buy one in a hart beat
I just purchased a GLB and I love it so far, I picked the features that I needed the most and walked out of the dealership at 38k, because of COVID-19 I got some payments deferred and Mercedes is paying up to $500 towards my 1st payment😀😀
“Up towards $500” well damn. How much is your car note, 1000? Loll
I just bought one less than a month ago. White exterior with red & black seats. AMG sports package with the diamond grill & night package.
I would live to see a pic of that. White with red and black seats sounds sick as hell 🔥
Omg my dream !
Mercedes should actually make a baby g wagon the size of a Suzuki jimney, that would be awesome imo
You need to review the AMG version! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
AGREED!
Somebody help me ...I have looked at dozens of GLB's online ...and see no difference in the size of the 7 inch & 10 inch screen.
Is the physical size the same but the viewing area of the screen different?
Size does matter when you see it in person.
Functional air curtain!? yeah right lol, you lost me there mate
My wife sees it as the new GLK which she really wanted but too old now. This thing is super roomy inside. I prefer the non AMG line because it’s more boxy and you get fog lights. Galaxy Blue in person is stunning. We’re looking to option a 4MATIC to around 46K
Great review. I hope you didn't leave the hand sanitiser in the car as that's a potential fire hazard.
Another undisclosed location again great. ;D
Heck yeah!
@@RaitisRides Yes sir!
@Sadman Islam LOL.
No demonstration of 3rd row???
It's adorable a baby Benz suv lol 😂
Hey man just compare side by side with other cars in one frame
I like it 😊👍
Best one for this segment
Nope
@@andybub45 do you have a better one
@@andybub45 I am really asking ?
I built one in Rose Gold with absolutely everything still waiting for delivery
JOE ~ Lori said it's cool if I live on your sofa as long as I put the toilet seat up lol. oh yeah do you guys have Twinkies? j/k you know me with the comedy jokes. GREAT REPORT BRO - diggin' MERC & some of their new original tech etc. you can donate one to me exactly like the one you review, thanks man I appreciate it - tony macaroni with double cheeze
Where's the third row....
love the front end of this... the rear not as much but its ok. I can't stand these fake/hidden exhausts, especially on a luxury vehicle or any vehicle over $30k.
Might see a pocket rocket invasion from Europe into North America given the massive price increases for vehicles suddenly appearing in particular in the USA.
Another great review!
Gasoline prices cheaper in Miami, Florida than Columbus, Ohio again hilariously.
Do I really need to spend $50,000 on a 2021 GMC Canyon Denali? Seems pretty high to me anyways.
My wife has this car and I drive it once a week or so and I gotta say I’m surprised by it very fast for its engine too.
This is a fwd based vehicle and will sadly never see V8's under the hood, the most we will likely see is their V6, maybe the I6. The chassis and suspension still need to handle the power when in fwd mode, last thing MB wants is a vehicle that swerves off the road when you floor it.
do the new rev 4
GLE 450 Review please
Yes sir! Stay tuned!
i love that your units of measurement are snacks
Great looking little crossover, i just wish they had more power
Re San thats great, hows the driving dynamics for it being a fwd based car?
@Re San What are your typical climate conditions on the road?
There is the GLB AMG 35
Dam the compact SUVs running the car industry
Lol love his pastry references. lol but we all know that this guy eats nothing but dumbbells 💪🏾. I aspire to stay fit like this guy.
That is so awesome of you to say man!
I think these top brands of vehicles should not keep changing for options. There is lesser companies that give you this in the price of the vehicle. They need to think about this in the current climate, covid-19, people won't have the funds. I can see most of these vehicles sitting collecting dust.
What a detailed review. Impressive. For everyone complaining about price, this is a luxary brand you are talking about. It sets you apart and that is what you pay for. So stop comparing it with Kia and Toyota.
It would look better all blacked out if it's going to have black rims on this one, it's just my kind of taste.
Despite the (IMO) pretty high price tag, these things will sell very well I'd imagine. There's so many ppl nowadays that demand an SUV (whether they actually need it or not) and this fits the bill for em.
This SUV has to have the best mpg in its class without hybrid technology.
I agree
This is a great crossover. Great exterior and interior design, adequate power, all wheel drive, plenty of room, decent MPG, amazing tech and practicality. But I gotta zonk the price. $57k for a compact SUV is pretty ridiculous. I would rather get Porsche Macan for that kind of price.
Macan starts at $55k. You probably can't get a well equipped for less than $65k. This GLB is is fully loaded. Well equipped would run about $53.
Porsche Panamera gts please!
$30-35k JDMs and Korean cars have x3 more features and amenities nowadays
Should have mentioned that a 3rd row is available as an option for $850.
Not bad at all. no more having to drive two cars with 6 or 7 passengers
Maybe its a good looking suv to me 💯
Great video, thank you Rati!! It is a pretty nice little Mercedes Benz, but for $60,000 I am surprised it doesn't have real carbon fiber and I'm surprised you didn't Tonk the map nets!!
This vehicle take gasoline or diesel?
Gasoline
I’m gonna go ahead and ZOINK this car.
ZZZOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNKKKKKKKKK
Personally like the look of the XT4 sport better. $57k is a lot for a luxury compact suv
Nice SUV
