Mercedes GLA 250e Hybrid - Walkaround & Overview | Why buy an EV?

To me, hybrid vehicles seem to be a perfect middle ground at the moment, as the move to electric vehicles ramps up. This GLA 250e is a great example, offering up to 40 miles of pure electric range, premium Mercedes quality and ideal levels of practicality. It is therefore a very good choice from my perspective as a daily driver if you're looking to lower fuel costs!

Got mine now for 3 months perfect car, very comfortable, great finitions in AMG line, very smooth to drive, specially in full electric mode in the city. Charged at home in 3 hours with a reinforced electrical outlet. Most of the time we drive in full electric to go to work or shopping, cheapest way to drive.

Glad you're enjoying it!

I’ve been looking for my next vehicle. I’m currently in a 2009 Volvo which has zero technology on it. Not even Bluetooth connectivity. This GLA is going to feel like a spaceship by comparison. I don’t think I’m ready.

Finally somebody speaking proper english ! 🤣 Some of these car review videos are incomprehensible.

[@mry82]

Good review. Good to see ya!

[@FootToPedal]

Thanks man, hope you're well!

[@yazanzaid386]

Is this 2022 or 2023 model?

[@FootToPedal]

This is actually a 2021 model, although I don't think there have been many changes over the past couple of years

I think your opening comments that you don't understand why tastes are changing show that you are young! Firstly, without making a political point, young people are basically potless. They have massive student debt, and shouldn't be dropping tens of thousands on a car that halves in value in 4 years. They can barely pay their rent. So who buys new cars? The aging demographic. Personally I have passed through my Porsche 911 days, and want comfort and luxury. Mercedes see that. "City Cars" tiny things that you squat to the floor to get in and are rubbish outside the city are 20 years in the rear view now.

Sorry, but awful review. Do your homework. The exhaust exits underneath, about half way along, saving complicated rearrangement of the floor panels, battery fit etc. If it is all wheel drive, it must be the only one Mercedes ever made. They only come with front wheel drive!!

So sorry the video didn't live up to your expectations - I did actually do quite a bit of research for this video and was convinced the hybrid model was AWD based on information I'd been able to find, but that's my bad. Additionally, it's just a personal opinion that I don't like fake exhaust tips, I don't really care the reason why, it's just an opinion. I'll never fully understand comments like this, presumably you're an owner and don't like a couple of comments I made 😂Thanks for watching!
