The first gen GLA45 was one of my dream cars and I wish they continued the hatchback style. I am a proud owner of a 2018 designo mountain grey magno and its surreal every time I open my garage.
It’s such a perfect car. They’re crazy for changing it.
The AMG A45S looked amazing. I wish it were a thing
Bought my 2016 GLA45 new. Now, at 35k miles, it's still drives like new. Love this car!
I just picked up a 23, only like 300 miles right now, but def love it! Much better drivetrain than the A35 I used to own for sure.
@@mikehawk120how’s the GLA treating you now?
Any concerns? Pros or cons you can share please?
I like that you recommend which car is better at similar performance and which car has better pricing. Gives buyer an informed decision of which car is a better buy.
I have a 2018 and it’s a fantastic car. Great practical daily that’s easy to live with and fun to mob around. Holds its own in the canyon.
Nice! Always good to have an owner's perspective, thank you
Have you had any issues with it?
@@reubendeleon-ji6upmine has been flawless I’ve had it since 2020. Just put some shorter Michelin MP4S tires on it and it’s even more fun and a little quicker
Good and thorough review, glad you tried to give comparisons. I test drove it and I loved it but the price was the hardest part to get over. Maybe 15k less and it might be well worth it.
I liked this Mercedes, I hope when I grow up I will buy one. Thanks for the video you are top bro!
Thanks for watching!
Incredible vehicle but I definitely liked the first-gen better because it looked more like a hatch - and $68k, eh, I know the market is wildly crazy but agreed with you, the profile and cost-cutting, I’d definitely go with the Golf R, or some other more affordable alternative. Great review as always!
this is more of a mini suv tho
i was about to say the same thing. i own a 2017 for 3 years now and i love it. 1st Gen is getting cheaper these day, it won 3 time Best engine of the year and it is pretty reliable. its a real pocket rocket !!!
I purchased a brand new 2023 GLA45 AMG in June 2023 because of this video... it is my first "true" AMG vehicle and the MOST fun vehicle I've EVER owned... and its also practical!
I bought a 23 around the same time as well. We got the last ones I believe. Now it’s just the 35 model for the GLA. The CLA44s does look good though.
@@mikehawk120 we are truly lucky 👍🏾... I don't think you will ever find a compact SUV/hatchback with this much power EVER again in the U.S.!!! The 2023 GLA 45 AMG might be the last!!! Even BMW has no plans to create a "true" X1 M or X2 M vehicle with this much power in the U.S.
@@wrwatson80 I agree. I was looking at sone BMW stuff the other day, they def aren’t shooting for sport in the smaller stuff. I bought with most options. Only regret is not getting cooled seats and the upgraded lights. I have the 21 inch rim setup and I’m not seeing much over 10k miles with the sport compact 6 tires, crazy.
@@mikehawk120 those Sport Contact 6 tires are the worst on tread life 😩😩😩
@wrwatson80 I know my friend, it sucks .monkey nutz lol. At 13k for fronts, rears are anoutbdead too, no track time
I can’t wrap my head around the US obsession with everything having to be an SUV? Do they really need the extra few inches if suspension travel and ground clearance? SUV’s mostly spend their lives in parking lots 🙄 sorry. Anyways, great review! Love all the in-depth and asmr drives
It’s ok if you can’t afford it. Haha
honestly you’re right but there are even more sedans out there
dude this thing barely counts as an suv. i see it as a slightly lifted hatchback
@@chocolate-gq5cs the same goes to u
Jus buy a sedan man! Pretty simple my homie.
i really like this car. there none other like it with similar performance at 4 second zero to sixty
I love the views. Is there somewhere in Cali?
I like the first gen looks better. I think they need the rear spoiler or it looks pretty much like the soccer mom version. I had a 2016 GLA45 with red cut leather seats and most the sport track options. Was amazing on the track.
Just built one without the rear Windows to make it more of a sleeper. So, it depends on whether you want to signal what you've got, or not.
Is there an included dash camera in it ?
The advantage of this over a a45s is the ground clearance for odd ball carparks with sudden slopes. Well u can always drive your other cars for these and get a a45s but cost efficiency wise it is better to only hv one car that does it all
Ordered mine in December 2021, its currently in Portugal
I find it funny how it has quad exhausts but they're just holes not connected to the actual exhaust lol
Great video review. Only question is how can this be a 2022 GLA 45 when as of 3-20-22 MBUSA has not released or launched them for the U.S market?
I picked mine up last week 👍
Big fan from Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵
As a used car I bet it'd be a crazy bargain.
Orange County roads are awesome
Que bonito.
Milesperhr can you do a pov a on a lucid air air pure
still love this car
Was this from a dealer or from MB? It is the first 2022 CLA/GLA 45 reviewed in the US since MB hasn't released them for sale yet (many of us waiting). Where'd the car come from??
From the manufacturer (not a dealer)
I picked mine up last week at an AutoNation dealership...I'm very happy 👍
@@popcornfps how you liking it after a year?
@@mikehawk120 love it. No issues whatsoever. The only thing though are the stock tires it came with, the treadwear is horrible. I've only clocked in about 13K miles and I probably need to replace the front tires already...Continentals. This is expected and not the fault of the car. Other than that it's great, I still get a few thumbs up from random people I drive by or when I pull up at the light. I have the night package plus so the tags are all blacked out so it has a bit of a sleeper look except for the 21s and the spoiler, lol.
After all decent car but does it really need a AMG badge?
Next time drive in vinewood hills
That’s my hood. To the right.
68K, wow that's nuts. Golf R for me too!!
Volkswagen is a joke with their customer service though. I know first hand. And I have a golf R
Very nice car. And a😍😍 beautiful video.
Your run is great.
I really like the sound of your vehicle.
I like that rhythm. Your track is also very beautiful bro.
I congratulate you.
Are you in the US? My 2022 gla45 is stuck at the vpc since November and I heard from my dealership that they haven’t released any 2022 gla45s in the US. Which dealership did you get the car from if in the US? Thx (great review)
Same question, I'm waiting in my CLA45, at port since November. 😥
@@jeffbs I was told the same thing. I’ve heard from a bunch of dealerships that none of the 2022 GLA 45s are out so I’m curious how this video was made on a 2022. I think the review is done on a 2021 model.
@@ecto111 got info the 22 GLA 45s were released to dealers by MB last fri...so should be headed to dealers this week.
@@jeffbs where did you hear that? That’s good news for me. Hopefully you get yours as well
I don't get these cars from dealers - they come directly from the manufacturer for use specifically as review cars.
No cupholders in the back? Hmm idk
You can cross shop this with its predecessor Gla45
can u make video on rolls Royce cullinan
Already done! I have several on the channel for you to check out. Here's my Drive Review: ruclips.net/video/IasSgUqjlmE/видео.html
$68k is cheap compared to how much they’re selling it in my country; almost $200k for this car! 😂😅 Very high car tax over here 😢
I'm sure you meant 30.5 psi of boost, not 30.5 bar.. 30.5 bar is almost 450 psi!
You can either get a 2021 instead similar 😏
Give us a45. Trust me, it will outsell gla 45 any days
30.5 Bar is 442psi of boost.... I don't think so
If anyone knows why American cars have yellow stripes on their sides, please tell me.
It’s a cool car but I personally don’t see the point of a 380hp SUV. I think 200-250hp is the sweet spot for SUVs. In my opinion, an SUV is meant to be comfortable to cruise around. If I want to drive like a maniac on mountain roads or canyons, I’d go for the A45. But that’s just my opinion ;)
Hatch>sedan
If I wanted a Golf R review, I would have clicked one
First time seeing a review with comparisons to other cars?
Why can't North America have the A class hatchback instead. The SUV looks dorky.
For the way 99.9% of these are driven, what does this do that a Golf R or S3 can’t?
so can a Corolla
It has a leg up in soundtrack, but the other advantages are slim
It looks better?
I drove it. Very nice. But it looks like a soccer mom car.
Are some of those lights halogens🤢??
There is a full LED headlight option. However, the high beams on the base headlights are halogens
hi 😍😍😍😍😍😍
👋
No sunroof 😂 skip ⏭️ good car thoo
