@@Enko063 Depends on what you like. If you are a fan of 1990s style seats, a cheapo stand-up navigation system (reminds me of the ones on Corolla), and flimsy dashboard pieces, the you’ll be happy with a Q5. I prefer to spend my money on something of better quality and modern technology - crazy, huh?
Recently it was time for me to upgrade cars. I looked at X5, Q5, GLC, and GLB. Surprisingly I ended up getting the Mercedes GLB. I LOVE their new interiors. I wanted the updated GLC, but they hadn’t entered production yet. ☹️ Next time. 🤣 I used to be a huge VWAG fan, but the last Audi I had was 🗑️ and hopefully avoiding some issues going with the Mercedes. 🤞🏻 Time will tell. The Q5 is long overdue for a refresh and I don’t find this comparison fair since the GLC was literally just refreshed.
Pity and sorry for you because if you would have waited a little bit longer you could have bought the new Q5 3rd generation. A fantastic SUV with excellent reviews.
The Q5 still carries the industrial approach, I would say. To me interiors are not a deal breaker, and the touch AC controls are a strict NO. So, I would pick the Q5.
Considering how old of a design and model the Q5 is, I would have expected a notable advantage for the GLC. Instead you are getting a minimal superiority, if any. For sure a moral victory for the Q5.
Rented a2019 GLC300 w/AMg line package that was fun. But I bought a 2023 Q5 45 S Line The ride is so mich better and smoother. I think its because of multi link Front suspension . Rented a newer GLC again and yup cant compare the ride quality to Audi.
I just love the Q5 overall. The functional interior. Suttle exterior, the best engine and nice power on the upgraded electric motor. GLC too flashy for me
I have been searching for a car in this segment for a while now, so let me chime in a little. Mercedes GLC, especially in hybrid form, is simply the best in this segment. Not that it is higher quality than its rivals (it isn’t) it is the only one with latest tech and only one that can deliver cars with latest tech without chip problems. BUT the GLC prices dealers quote me are the same as BMW X5 hybrid prices. The X5 is unquestionably the better car. So the only remaining quality to the GLC is that it is smaller, which is a positive thing for some people. Went with an XC60 instead. Costed 15+k less than the GLC :)
the mercedes interior looks more like an office than car interior; even the cockpit is a plain rectangular screen, then on the console another rectangular screen. there s no feeling you're in a car.
@An.N. even if that was true, it would still make you feel at the wheel of a car. Everybody's praising the Mercedes interior design, but really, it's not that hard to stick 2 rectangular tablets in a car and call it a day. Where's the designing ingenuity in that? For me, as a customer, it would be more like an insult. They're asking 90k on a car, and when I get into it, I'm looking at an office with 2 screens, basically. I agree the rest looks nice, but the 2 screens are ruining everything for me.

Had a q5, 40 tdi, 2022 - the car (brand new) was making a whistling sound when accelerating, so at around 2000rpms. It sounded as if someone was blowing air through a straw. Interestingly, the noise was more pronounced in the warmer weather and when the engine was warmed up. In Audi while acknowledging the unusual noise (it took a while), they could not find the reason why it was happening, as everything “seemed fine”. The same happened in a replacement car. I ended up selling it and going for another brand having driven Audi for the past 20 years 😢
I drove several new mercedes and I just cant enjoy the infotainment system that they use.. It is so cumbersome that just connecting my phone by bluetooth was difficult, it just isnt intuitive, and the audi system is just straight to the point and easy to use. Besides that I dont like the screens just floating in the interior of the Mercedes
My money would be on the GLC, more advanced. Audi outdated still the same might as well buy a 10 year old Q5 not much difference. That iPad sticking up on top is shocking.
I have a question please, which one of those would prefer for three kids (rear seats), i should install 3 child seat, or at least 2 and the third kid will have just a normal seat
Hard plastics on lower part of doors are unacceptable, seems like every new generation is looking to be more cost efficent by removing higher quality materials here and there
Thing is, at maxed-out configurations, both arrive at 95 - 100 k-ish EUROs right now, so... Maybe better wait for the new Q5 that's right around the corner?
Well the Q5 has a redesign coming soon so it's like comparing apples and oranges right now. I had a Q5e PHEV last year and now have a Etron (soon to be Q8 Etron) now and love it just as much as my Q5e.
I know Mercedes is more luxurious but there's something abt the Audis that attract me more towards them. Their Quattro system is more successful over Merc's 4matic.
@@mart_en aah the rear you meant, i sat in the passenger seat. That one was very cramped. And legroom in Q5 is not small, its judt that the Q3 has good rear legroom. Q5 for example has better legroom than the bmw x3
I would go for AUDI Q5 all the way , the Mercedes interior its overwhelming . Audi Q5 is more classy and user friendly . plus using a tablet as a spedometer is ugly . the only thing I don't like about the Audi Q5 infotainment system . plus the Audi comes with ambient lightning which he didn't mention + wireless charging. The only thing that Mercedes kicked as the Audi is exterior which is a deal breaker of course
Those Audi seats will begin splitting in 4-5 years. The interior looks like it was made at the same factory as a Volkswagen Golf. Functional, but very out-dated and some of the pieces are very flimsy. No thanks.
The Mercedes looks great inside and out, but I would go for the Audi Q5. I like the more simple interior design with physical climate control buttons. The Mercedes is just too pretentious looking on the inside.
GLC interior looks great and it drives well but did they forget drivers have legs...literally nowhere for your right need with that unnecessarily large consol intrusion.
@@pacmanc8103 I like VW interior, especially from past generation, when there were more physical button. But Audi positionuingmore premium and not every current their model feels that way. Some of their cars have nice fresh interior, but this Q5, A4 2023 have a really outdated interior, design and fuctionally wise. It could be fare for this models, cuz they are not at the top premium segment. But competitors in their price with similar price has already updated their cockpit.

Thanks for the great video
The Mercedes interior looks like a Russian mob disco and the Audi's interior looks like a gentleman's club.😂
But I like Russian mob disco. 😕
The Audi looks like a Volkswagen to me. No distinction and the technology is old. The Benz is a nice, modern vehicle of a different level.
For the Merc more like a neon brothel :)

audi interior is 10 y old and you see it immediately
Maybe but at least the Audi is not using a bolted-on iPad as its speedometer.
As a Mercedes and Audi lover I'll take the Q5! But I still love the GLC

Turbodiesel whistle 😉
Audi Q5 👌👌👌
Very good review, thanks!
driving a MB now I don't miss the Audi I had a few models before...hmmm🤔
Thanks 🙏
Very nice review!
One of the things I like least about Mercedes is all the "drooping" body lines, think the GLC is one of their better looking designs.
Love this review
Great comparaison, but please guy invest in a better camera. The last videos are so dark!
Thanks! Our camera is good, maybe you perceive some shots as dark because there was hard sunlight which requires aperture close of the camera
Both are nice, but I would choose the BMW X3 30i

The Mercedes should be better considering it’s a brand new model and the Audi is at the end of its life cycle
Yeah Audi is preparing a new Q5. Due to come out soon.
Mercedes Benz' "leather" usually is just plastic, probably on this car too..
Only you open eyes on the view of driver space and glc though, yes audi q5 is larger area driver than glc absolutely Sir. You are number one.
Thanks 🙏
Brilliant video.

As much as i like AJ`s review`s, i do think Thomas should do one of these aswell, as he is the same height as me :P
😂
Mercs interior screens looks really retrofitted...😅 Hopefully Audi also ditches that tablet-looking center screen in future models...
19 rim verse 21 rim on air suspension is a big handling difference.
Well the Q5 has a redesign coming soon so it's like comparing apples and oranges right now. I had a Q5e PHEV last year and now have a Etron (soon to be Q8 Etron) now and love it just as much as my Q5e.
So nice GLC
I know Mercedes is more luxurious but there's something abt the Audis that attract me more towards them. Their Quattro system is more successful over Merc's 4matic.
glc in ireland now stats at 82k euro, so its definatly a no no in terms of price
Is the Q5 still made in Mexico for the American market?
For world
I just buy the q5 made in Mexico but I’m not really happy 😢
Mercedes GLC all the way. Spoil you with the futuristic interior design and technology
@4:18 he says he is 5'8 and has plenty of head room, well i should hope so because 5'8 is short lol, what if you're 6'4?
check it out: ruclips.net/video/Cfm2ZgZb32M/видео.html
I prefer the fake exhaust tips; they only get corroded with exhaust soot and mean extra work in clean-ups.
Not if you clean your vehicle every week. But they have to be cleaned by hand - like the whole vehicle actually, including inside the doors.
The legroom is actually better in the Mercedes.
In fact even the Q3 has more room for the knees than a Q5 ...
Thats just false, the Q3 was hella cramped while the Q5 gave me plenty of space
@@j800q Than your perception was wrong. The Q3 has 1,8 cm more legroom in the rear.

Should have used the Lexus NX as Audi and BMW are getting new models in 2 or 3 years.
I'll go with the GLC
GLC for looks Q5 for driving exp
What GLC is this?! And what year?!
2023
This comparison needs to include the BMW X3 and Volvo XC60.
We have a GLC vs X3 episode here: ruclips.net/video/0xkb5hb9DqQ/видео.html
Volvo?😂
Rear axle steering, quite interesting
Mercedes wins hands down, its newer and looks much better on the inside, Audi really left the Q5 aging badly, such a shame
Audi has just released the All New Q5. Look gorgeous!
Massage seats in Audi Mercedes is so cheap not doing massage seats makes a real difference if you drive long ways .. stalk shift is terrible
Audi better therefore ❤
Those Audi seats will begin splitting in 4-5 years. The interior looks like it was made at the same factory as a Volkswagen Golf. Functional, but very out-dated and some of the pieces are very flimsy. No thanks.
If you need a massage probably a massage parlour is where you need to go? 😂
someone PLEASE ban touch controls for AC being the ONLY OPTION in a LUXURY CAR😭
Please review fisker ocean
I don’t like too much touch screen options that can easily distract driving …slowly we are losing purpose of car
Definitely Mercedes interieur. In Audi it is like they forgot about the middle display and placed an ipad on a car kit in the end. Mercedes for me.
The Mercedes looks great inside and out, but I would go for the Audi Q5. I like the more simple interior design with physical climate control buttons.
The Mercedes is just too pretentious looking on the inside.
GLC interior looks great and it drives well but did they forget drivers have legs...literally nowhere for your right need with that unnecessarily large consol intrusion.
Hopefully the Ipad-glued-to-the-dash thing goes away soon!
Enjoy paying for Service B, C, D, etc. for the GLC :D
As far as I know, there are only A service and B service. The A service is around $280, I think, and the B service is around $700. Not that bad.
❤
Q5 will have a new design around March of 2024, it will be fair to compare by then
X3 anyday
Lol very one sided review😂😂 I can tell you love new GLC
Oh yes, the fake exhaust tips. Why?? Why keep doing something that all of us hate so much. Crisis.
I would take the X3…
