- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- In today’s Autogefühl's episode, Thomas shows you the Mercedes X-Class Pickup as X350d. As always we cover exterior, interior, engines and driving experience.
Additional Infos:
- CarPlay is not available for the X-Class
- The acceleration figure in the video is slightly slower than the stated figure because the official acceleration is tested in the "Progressive" trim with less equipment, no side steps, no underfloor cover etc., our Power version had more weight and more wind resistance

Thomas is my favourite automotive journalist. Fantastic job as usual. Plus I love the A Team bit 😂😂
thanks so much, please spread the word :)
Here in NZ they are almost the most hated Ute on the market. I got my X350 new just after they decided they were not going to make it anymore. The price was a silly $95,000 but they had trouble shifting them and I got mine with 20km on it ore registered for $65,000 which is much closer to its true worth (my opinion). Most of my farmer friends hated it but must now admit for the money I laid and how much more refined it is that it’s a pity they didn’t continue. I used to have the Navara jts based on and Merc strengthened the chassic (extra cross braces) and heaps more sound deadening material. The basic feel is a Navara that’s been t0 charm school…the same, but refined.
Pity they stopped…I love mine, but obviously won’t be able to buy another
Thanks for the report!
You are the world's best car reviewer, Thomas!
great to have you here !
Thumbs up, Thomas, for coming to Slovenia!
You are the only reviewer who have fun reviewing and thats what i like the most of you Thomas!!
😎
"I'm captain of the ship" had me laughing out loud
🤣
In March 2020 the v6 350d could be purchased for abut A$75k, due to the uncertainty of sales during Covid-19 in Australia. A Mercedes dealer told me last week (March 2021) that the last basic v6 they sold, was for A$105k! Huge demand now they are very rare to purchase new.
Thank you Thomas - A very good, helpful review.
cheers!
instablaster...
Dude this guy so huge makes even the big cars look small.
Why are people bothered by the rebranding?
I have been in one and it feels like any other mercedes.
What a beautiful part of the world Thomas, your a lucky man to live and work there. great review
Cheers!
Amazing is a beautiful pick up truck
I love pickups and I'm still surprised with the Mercedes' approach in this case. External design is nice, especially the powerful front, but with such huge experience in building off-road vehicles Mercedes should have based this model on the G Wagon - extended frame with longer wheelbase, V6 engine as basic choice, V8 as option (possible AMG version, but not necessary), 3 locking differentials, more space in the back for passangers and in my opinion this would be the correct approach. Unfortunately these days Excel rules corporate minds and we all know that using Navara instead of creating completely new model allows to save a lot of money, but how can you explain only the height adjustment of the steering wheel in 2018 in the car with price over 50k €. It is not some space technology... Anyway it is just an example, I would expect much more from Mercedes.
By the way Thomas nice review :-)
thanks m8 !
Thomas:
“The first pickup by Mercedes.”
Mercedes-Benz G-wagon 6x6 pickup:
“Guess I'm just a sandwich...”
😂
Mercedes: lets cancel building it after one year 😁
@@autogefuehl
X-Class:
“What did we do to deserve this!?”
Mercedes-Benz:
“We had no other choice!”
😂
we need a coupe version
Hmmm... Not sure about this one. Someone mentioned that they should have based it off of the G Wagon, which would have been awesome. Then it would have a chance in a North American market. We would consider it over our Ford in that case. Great review as always 👍🏻
Thx!
Best review ever!
Pls share 🤘
Thanks, Thomas! Nicely reviewed as always.
I loved your A-Team reference!
This "Mercedes" makes me think of a platypus - something about it just doesn't look right 😉
Thanks for the Good Video
I had the love for the Ford Wildtrak but this is just beautiful, I look forward to trying one. I'm curious to see if the tail swings when you push the horses.
Have you tried it yet?
14:50 Thomas in the rear seat! 🤗
5:26 - Michel, conscientious of time, keeps his presenter in check 😉. Nice one, Chaps!
😁😁
thanks for great reviews ... you should place the camera on the right side of the driver's seat for less rattling and better view..attaching on the window is not a good idea ....A pillar ruins the view !!!
14:50 Thomas in the rear seat haha
This truck really looks like it took a lot of its styling cues from the Nissan Frontier. And, to me, that's like taking a step backwards, because people are already familiar with this design in a pickup truck. MB could've done better, in my opinion.
Hi Thomas,
Great Review! I personally agree that leather seats are absolutely unnecessary. Never understood why you would pick them for a premium if you can get fabric seats that get the job done better.
Leather should only be used where it can be useful and car seats just aren't in that category methinks.
Thx 4 the support!
Normally not the biggest Merc fan but this is very cool, make an amg version already. Love you guys
E30 ///M Mercedes said that there won't be one. Even Brabus failed to give the AMG touch.
VALLY that’s annoying, probably because of the Nissan connection
Thx m8!
Right, they should make like how Ford does the raptor, just fun as hell
Thanks Thomas.
13:55 Thomas in the rear seat.
=)
14:50 tomas on the rear seat
Great review as usual. Merc certainly not showing their best efforts with this vehicle.
nice shots of Slovenia :)
thx :)
Hi Thomas, where did you test the car? Beautiful landscape! Good review as always. Sehr gemütlich wie immer. :-)
Cheers! Thats slovenia!
I like this truck, but Mercedes (Nissan/Renault/whoever) is going to have to work very hard to catch up with the Amarok, if VW decides to put their 4 litre TDI in it.
Great as always. What’s that rattling sound around minute 18? Car or cameras/equipment?
If I had to buy a Puck up I’ll have a hard choice between this and the Ridgeline.
It's official, thomas a little bit high in this video.
Nissan key with a Mercedes logo on it HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
And Infiniti have Mercedes cars with Infiniti logos on them. What's your point?
This is the same model as the Nissan Navarra!
Only from Outside
@@BoneStack117 point is your paying for a Mercedes not a Nissan.
X-Class vs Hilux vs Navara hmm which is most worth the money?
I like the style, but not a fan of diesel engines in general
Just try the Ssangyong MUSSO FULL and u will have a better pickup for half the price !
Is it made in Thailand with the other Navaras?
Having watched this review and the review for the V6 Amarok, I would, based on your reviews go for the VW Amarok? Would you agree? I am looking to purchase a pick up this year. 70/30 in favour of on road use. Thanks for your reviews, best on RUclips by a long way!
Thanks! Yes indeed
Whats is the Price
That was filmed in Slovenia (?) :)
Ay! Was lovely
Autogefühl funny, I just came back from trip to Croatia and when saw those yellow city signs thought " I'm not sure it's Germany" and then saw that crossed painting with "Skola" something triggered :) But in Croatia they are the same as I remember, so my guess was wrong :)
Really disappointed with Benz on this thing. Mostly just a Nissan and they should have built their own ute (in Australia) or pick up from the ground up. The Navara is one of the worst utes on the market.
lol, why would they build it in Australia? Might as well build it on the moon.
Chris, I think he meant we refer to it as a ute in Australia (rather than pick-up) not build it here
Sean is correct, we call these things utes in Australia. We do not build cars in Australia anymore.
What is the major downsides with the Nissan? Have just owned Hilux and Isuzu before, happy with them.cheers!
Mercedes-benz x class 350d is fantastic both interior and exterior or it's iconic but why not gasoline course I am a funny of petrol powerd engine.
Thomas on your reviews can you please tell us the name of the villages and locations you are driving through.?
sure we usually put that somewhere in the review :)
Nice watch mate! What watch was that in the video?
Thanks 🙏 check video description!
I’m really disappointed with the X-Class. It isn’t luxurious, or any good with luxury. One thing is a handbrake, that I’d expect from a Mercedes, from 1997. I was super excited about the X-Class when I heard of it, being I LUV pickups, and I loved it even more when it had a 3 star badge on the front, rear and key. My love for it died when it officially came out. I hope the next generation makes an X63 AMG, with more features.
new peugeot 508 review am looking forward to it????
Soon!
mercedes replaced this engine- transmission combination with the 2.9 inline 6 with 340 ps and 9g-tronic transmission. This is not a cheap vehicle, they should have included new drivetrain. I would wait for the facelift for the new drivetrain and possibly new infotainment system.
You don't have perhaps a review of the Renault Alaskan?
Check the review of the Navara, the Alaskan is really very similar
22:30 oh my, if I were to do that with my new Fiesta, I would end up in the bushes.
Das iş schön
Das ıs schön
They should have done an own platform and model for the X-Class. It's a shame that VW Amarok V6 is better than a Mercedes. Actually this is not a Mercedes in my view... However Thomas is the Meister again!! Danke!
👍👍
I'd like to ask you what car you do have Thomas? :)
Also advertise for us a big New gasoline engine.
This one is a miss for MB and smacks of a GM mentality. MB design team, "Hey, I have an idea. Let's make a luxury pick-up truck that does neither luxury nor pick-up trucking well." If that vehicle ever made it to the US, it would remain as nailed to the showroom floor as the Nissan Frontier does. BTW - I currently own an MB E-class and owned an X-terra for 5 years (great small SUV). Another fantastic review, and I especially like the fun approach you took to how you presented the less than fun vehicle.
Cheers!!
Great review as always. About this car, I really don't understand the target market for this model, who would pay so much money for a Nissan with a Mercedes badge on it. Let's assume that they are targeting successful contractors, they won't risk damaging their expensive car by transporting hardware in it, this contractor will buy a simple Nissan that he can use without worrying about the interior or the resale value. If the contractor has a clean job that does not require transportation of hardware he would just get a g wagon.
Filmed in Slovenia?😁
Aye!
Autogefühl Visit lake Bled😉😁
I'm repeating myself but great review Thomas, and for the car really pointless to MB making something like this, I don't see why would anyone buy this instead of Toyota, Nissan, Ford or Chevy.
Thanks 🙏
Tail lights from Skoda Citigo 😏 (5:35)
For the price and lack of features I'd say the only thing this will carry will be the owners ego. In Australia it's like $85-95k with options. You have to option everything and it still lacks features. Just buy a half price Mitsubishi Triton that offers so much more for $48k.
The best Pick up in the world. 1.nissan Navara, 2.mercedes class X, 3.renault Alaskan, 4. Mitsubishi L200, other Pick up is shit
Make a baby G wagon off this truck with the V6 and sell it in the USA. It would sell like hotcakes.
Is it just me or does it look suspiciously similar to the Chinese LDV T60
This should have been a very short review: just declare the damn thing an abomination and a crime against humanity.
I think you're a bit too harsh on yourself 😢
Still it's probably the best pickup to buy after Ford Raptor.
It's not many trucks with a 4WD-system that allows driving on hard surfaces!
With their wide range of commercial and luxury crossovers/SUVs, Mercedes Benz should have come out with something better than this. Way too much Nissan overall, nice front end though..
Awww... Michel tho
Xclass in my opinion is like dancing waltz in trekking boots.
I buy 250 piece x class
This brings the whole you cant polish a turd saying..........
Qashqai key fob with Merc star on it, steering wheel without reach adjustment, door bins without soft touch material but it’s more than 50.000€? No, thanks. I don’t even mention about ridiculous options list and that enormous gear lever..
Vehicle is just a bullshit but the review you made was really good, thanks Autogefühl team!
Thx keep tuning in !
You cannot even order this piece of shit, because it wont pass WLTP standard.
These cars pretty much have one feature - letting you buy a 5-seater with deductable tax on your company. Quite small load area, horrible loading hight, needs expensive accessories to actually store stuff without it beeing stolen - either a deck lid or a canopy. With a canopy you get a very low cargo space.
It bugs me a bit when I see these cars (often Amaroks) with a giant front light bar, big wheels, and a roll bar... What do they do? Drive that turd of a car around town. They proably never put anything but the kids bike or something on that little bed. I get that they look cool but ffs :P
If they ACTUALLY used the thing work work a Transporter or Caddy Maxi would easily replace it and excel it in most points.
Merc, I like you, but this is Toyota Hilux territory, you can't even come close!
hahaha look Mercedes G63 AMG 6x6 what hilux?
the animal skin, comes from cows, that you eat anyway. So it will be waste to just trow away this product.
It's not as simple as you think. First, check out what the leather industry is trying to do:

Below this video you'll find more resources in the pinned comment to explain the topic even more in-depth.
what the... a luxury truck? i don't think fine leather seats and mahogany wooded dash doesn't go well with the dirt and grime of a worksite. not to mention the outrageous cost of maintenance and repair😂😂😂. i can see them charging $120 for an oil change alone😂😂😂
This is a terrible looking truck. The quality of it looks like a typical Nissan with a couple upgrades rather then a Mercedes. However, great review!
Cheers!
Horrible pick up truck. Even Chevrolet does way better at this segment.
Oh, really? the sad think about it is that you care so much and yet I didn't ask you so, or I don't even care what do you think about me.
Says the guy that has a green avatar as profile picture instead of a real photo. Just get a life.
nice nissan. so cheap
Germans are just not good at making pickups.
This car is a mess
