Hoping for 1 million subs...the family format is the best review style out there. Wish you could do one everyday (but then you might not have the family anymore!) Great work, great family!
Purchased 2022 GLB250 July similar to the one in your video ~ Had a 2021 GLB35 (With real exhausts) 4matic ! The ride in the GLB35 was very unforgiving ! 21 inch , very stiff , always avoiding pot holes & dips! Had me always worrying! GLB250 FWD 19inch, Drives different but seems to me much more comfortable! Gregory ~ Linda ~ Brent ~ My Name & My wife & My Son.!
Thank you for this review! I'm considering this suv and i will mostly use as my commuter to pick up my kid from school and go to the office once a week. My kiddo has the same car seat as your daughter and i wanted to make sure there was enough space in the back. Love how you both talk about your likes and dislikes, its perfect ♥️
I've heard this vehicle can be a bit jerky, i wonder if the GLC rides the same. I like the boxy shape of the GLB but seems like the GLC might be better?
What you bring - which I think is your point - is the family factor which no other reviewer has done. Really emphasize that point each and every time (luggage, car seat clip in, room for road trips, etc) then success.
Was waiting for the family version of your GLB after your solo review. We got the B-Class shortly before the GLB came out (we didn’t know it was coming out, and our salesperson didn’t say anything). I kicked myself in the nuts for not knowing. Now I wanna kick myself in the nuts again after seeing both your reviews. By the way. Scream if you feel like it. You do you. 👍
13:35 It makes no sense because its not true, the FWD gets 31mpg highway, the AWD 30mpg highway, check the EPA site. Also, the reason the MPG difference is so tiny, is because the GLB will be operating in FWD mode on the highway whether you get FWD or AWD version as it disengages power from the rear when not needed, and the tiny drop in economy is just because of slightly extra weight and maybe drag from the extra components under the car.
You're looking at the fuel economy figures for the 2021 model. Go back and check out the figures for the 2020 model we tested. FuelEconomy.gov does indeed show the 4MATIC awd version getting better highway fuel economy. That said, subsequent model years show the fwd version as more efficient. That makes me think the EPA might've screwed up the 2020 numbers.
It's on my short list of potential vehicles after my Q5 lease is up in 11 months. A little out of my budget though after AWD and other options. Best wishes for a happy marriage, your wife is sweet and adorable. I have a hunch you made the right choice there.
Better vehicle than I expected, but hard plastics in high-touch areas on a vehicle costing $49K is unacceptable. I did take note of the fuel mileage in the 💥INFORMATION EXPLOSION💥and was surprised to see that the 4Matic gets 1 MPG more on the highway than the FWD model. I think Miss Mercedes works well enough ...if you ask her kindly. Classy lady. After all, she is a Mercedes 😮 I was surprised that she expressed shock when you told her to 'shut up'. LOL! Please continue to shout the segment intro's. I like 'HyperMicah' 😀 PS: I must be around the same age as your mom (early 60's) as I remember the two sizes of Coca-Cola bottles. I believe they were 7 ounces and 10 ounces. As always, nice job!
Sometimes the screaming seems like a strange amount of excitement to have for some very unexciting cars but I do crave the Micah energy so I think we need a strategic deployment of the screaming moreso...
Your daughter is so cute and well-behaved. I have a 7 year old that never stops talking. LOL. And I just noticed my daughter has that same wooden claw. She got a kit so she can make it (of course with help from yours truly. haha).
I'm not a fan of that white on black interior. I think it could get stained easily for a compact family crossover, and it won't be easy to clean. If you're skeptical about the cleanliness of your cat interior, like I am, you'll want to look at another interior color. It looks good, though.
I have 2 kids and these cup holders are definitely not user friendly of you are under 5 years old. 🤦🏻♂️ Was also disappointed to find out the rear seats (5 seater) don't slide back and forth. Otherwise, ok for its size.
@@DigitalYojimbo competition is indeed tough, but I'm going to trust that Mercedes has done their due diligence and market research. I suspect this will sell rather well.
@@ALMX5DP I have ordered a new GLB here in the UK but it's 2wd, 7 speed and only a 1.3 163hp car. We don't get the 2.0 petrol option in non AMG 35 guise. Oh the price, that would equal $60,000
@@Brian-jv8iy thanks for your info but I know that. I have driven luxury cars including the Mercedes. I have test driven the glb250 but I like the AMG night package because of the aesthetics, that's all. What I said was that even the most expensive cars have plastic, I just like the fact that you can build to your taste and pay for what you want and not the extra stuff that you really don't need. I built one with the AMG night package and like it. Have a great weekend.
I like the screamy Micah, though “scream” might not be the best term, as that suggests pain or horror to me. Let’s say, instead, the yelly Micah. So, yeah, bring yelly back. 😲
As a new Tesla Model Y owner, watching reviews of ICE vehicles are just not as interesting as they used to be. For $50,000, I wouldn’t want any other car. 😎
Tesla is definitely more interesting, but some aspects not always positively so. From general quality issues (including Home Depot bandaid surprises), or model variants that are advertised but not always fulfilled in the timeline initially touted (third row available yet?). They are fantastic cars, but dont come without their own list of cons, certainly for customers that simply dont have the wants or means of adapting to the charging aspect and infrastructure.
Clearly "Hey, Mercedes" and I aren't getting along. What infotainment technology should I feud with next? 😂
Micah Muzio the new ID 4 when it comes out
The 2024 cars are much better with regard to that jerky start issue - the mild hybrid system they have introduced makes it much smoother.
My wife saw this video and said “oh I like that one” so you may have just cost me $50,000
Eek. Sorry, Garrett!
...do more research, and show her more videos.
😂😂😂
Your wife wasn’t talking about the car
Same here 😊
It’s not a Micah video review with out a scream expressing your enthusiasm. Amp it up!
I agree I like the screaming Micah !!!
It’s reminding me of a modern version of the old GLK
Yea I feel great Mercedes is trying to bring back old memories
Hoping for 1 million subs...the family format is the best review style out there. Wish you could do one everyday (but then you might not have the family anymore!) Great work, great family!
I prefer the screaming Micah
A lot more fun
Awesome review! “Secret wagon” sums up my thoughts exactly! I love how you have fun but we still learn about cars! Keep it up!!

I really like that you bring your wife along she gives a good laymens review of the car
If his wife isn't a teacher, I'd be shocked.
Lmao! I had the same thought.
Could be a therapist too
The chairs remind me of a pair of classic black and white oxford shoes.
I think the folks at Mercedes would appreciate your observation!

Last time I felt pampered was when I got to drive my friends audi across the country
Screaming Micah is the best Micah. Great review. The GLB looks as a very practical compact premium crossover
We want SCREAMING Micah Muzio!
NOTED!!!!
By By CRV!! Evie's found the perfect replacement!! Thanks ! AWD for the best MPGS!!!!!
It's on my short list of potential vehicles after my Q5 lease is up in 11 months. A little out of my budget though after AWD and other options. Best wishes for a happy marriage, your wife is sweet and adorable. I have a hunch you made the right choice there.
I am looking forward to the AMG versions of the GLB. This looks like a fun wagon to drive.
I felt pampered last when I got right order at mc donald

You an Joe Raiti are my favorite car reviewers because of your guys humor.
The production and editing is next level!! Love the innuendo iguana and the censorship one 😂
Nice family!! I really enjoy your videos.
I think you missed cargo view and features other than optional 3rd row seating mention.
It looks like Fred and Velma got married. Which is awesome!
Sometimes the screaming seems like a strange amount of excitement to have for some very unexciting cars but I do crave the Micah energy so I think we need a strategic deployment of the screaming moreso...
Is that a KiwiCo easter egg at 2:11 ?
👏🏻👏🏻Well spotted! We love the KiwiCo kits.
Thanks for this great vid. Its very helpful on making a decision
One of my fave youtube families!!
The last time I felt pampered was the last time I watched a Micah Muzio video. I'll hand in my man card on Monday morning.
I don't really like change, so... SCREAM THOSE INTROS!
Can you please do a review of the glc coupe or the bmw x4? They are a couple of the most popular vehicles. Thank you keep up the good work
It looks like a hearse to my eyes. The infotainment system would drive me crazy. Great review as usual!
Your daughter is so cute and well-behaved. I have a 7 year old that never stops talking. LOL. And I just noticed my daughter has that same wooden claw. She got a kit so she can make it (of course with help from yours truly. haha).
A mum and dad's point of view, finally 👌🏻🙌🏻
Micha, you & your sense of humor make me happy. Just saying.
...I prefer the more exuberant transitions... EMOTION FACTOR 📣📣
This is the 7 seat Large SUV I would buy, I'm from th UK, so this is large for us haha
...but you also great wagons (eatates) we don't get in the States.
Glb or Volvo xc60? I have two kiddos en car seats.
Side profile reminds me of a PT Cruiser or Chevy HHR...not necessarily a bad thing considering the utility those designed allowed.
Awesome video Micah!
Great review! As for the energy, I want to hear the energy you feel like brining!
Kinda wish the Mercedes + Infiniti partnership worked out better
Definitely calmer !!!
Great job 👍🏼
GLB is the equal to the gateway drug for MB’s. They give you the taste and in no time you’ll be wanting the GLE than GLS! Get em into the brand young.

So would you take this or a similarly priced Telluride?
Stephen Y Great question!
Both great vehicles but Telluride is more spacious & power but nonetheless they both have great optional equipment
Screaming for sportier vehicles and louder engines,
Reserve the quieter voice for more family-friendly and Electric vehicles.
Love it when Evie drives now!
I have 2 kids and these cup holders are definitely not user friendly of you are under 5 years old. 🤦🏻♂️
Was also disappointed to find out the rear seats (5 seater) don't slide back and forth. Otherwise, ok for its size.
how do you think this compares to the GLA for a small family of just one kid (13 years old) thx!
More space in GLB
Your family is so adorable!
what color is that? is it cosmos black or night black?
Hey @micah, any tow or payload rating on this “suv/wagon?”
It may be getting better fuel economy in AWD because the SUV is a bit underpowered and requires more work from the from only the front two tires
50k for 2.0T 221HP 0-60 in 6.9 is a deal breaker for me. I love the car though.
That's a similar price and similar performance to many cars that have come before it (when including options and accessories).
@@ALMX5DP the competition is pretty tough in this price range, I'm not sure a low level Merc badge can compete.
@@DigitalYojimbo competition is indeed tough, but I'm going to trust that Mercedes has done their due diligence and market research. I suspect this will sell rather well.
@@ALMX5DP yes, I suspect that it might appeal to the badge whores.

Visibility is great 👍🏾
Leans forward to see better 🤣🤣🤣
I choose: Calm at the beginning but gradually louder and louder until you're just screaming at the end.
mistertee THIS is the answer!!! 😂
hopefully getting this early 2021
More restraint please!
Another funny video from Micah's family
A fun, cheerful, and cheap MB! Micah Rage ... We want Heavy Metal reviews.
Nice video - funny facts we have paid 92000 US$ for the 220d 4matic in Denmark :D
The voice reminds me of CORA from the old Battlestar Galactica
Mercedes Benz GLB, or Land Rover Discovery Sport? Both offer 3rd rows
C99 Mercedes reliability is unmatched.
0:05 x2, 1:26, 2:00, 13:19 x2, 14:50,
Can you put a mic on your daughter? She has the cutest comments!
I vote for screaming Micah. (Maybe the occasional screaming Evie😉)
Kicking things off by literally screaming would get me to subscribe many times over
Nomscreaming. Thanks.
I think GLB stands for
Good Luxury Box
This is the AMG night package. Even the most expensive ones have plastic.

A Mild Micah is much preferred. !!!! Pleeeeeese !!!!
Wife: Hey M..., can you turn off seat heater for the driver?
If you are single with no kids, GLA is the perfect size!
No sunroof?
Panoramic moonroof is an option I believe.
$1,100 option 👍
Nice Kiwi Crate grabber :)
Screaming for sure!
In this video it looks like you just had a fresh flowbee haircut! Looks good! But oddly Mercedes doesn't think you're hot, boo :(
I hate the roof rails
If it works for Def Noodles...
Can we get some more helicopter tours of LA
Has a forester look to it I find.
Engine Noise in Car Stereo Speakers :P -Soundaktor
I like the screamy Micah, though “scream” might not be the best term, as that suggests pain or horror to me. Let’s say, instead, the yelly Micah. So, yeah, bring yelly back. 😲
The last time I felt Pampered was when I was a baby. Diapers, you know.
I think the plural of Mercedes should just be “Mercedes” like fish or deer
Am I the only one who thinks this car looks like a London taxicab? 😀
More enthusiastic screaming it's your thing!

Like this video . Mary Babiec
The front looks like they ripped off the old Honda Element.
Just started subscribe and following instagram. @B777MAN ^^ always happy to watch Happy family's car review! Thanks!
Scream. 👍
Mix up the screaming and not screaming. If you are screaming, we will know that you either really like the vehicle or hate it!
