From words fastest real world car, I understand how convenient is the car especially the suspension/ground clearance. Even Subaru WRX CVT version to be said the suspension hard as rock. Not suitable for daily drive more on track use.
Correct me if I'm wrong. The push start button can be remove and insert the smart key and start the car like a normal car when the smart key battery is low.
Chick Kam Loong Exactly, it served as a working backup if your smart key /keyfob suddenly running out of juice. But for Audi, , it has a specific spot for you to put the fob at and depress the brake and start the car. I’m not sure about BMW tho haha.
Hi Bob, i like your overall presentation, ... just wish u could improve your filming technique n upgrade your sound recording device for better quality of video outcome ... just my 2 cent opinion, try not to move or pan your DJI Osmo too fast whilst filming ... i sometime got a dizzy head after watching your vid ... :P
I prefer the 10-spoke rim from the 1st gen as well. Not sure why they made that rim for the special edition only this time. These new rims are interesting but I'm generally not a fan of "turbine" style rims
hi Bobby, compared to the GLA250, where does the GLA250 stand,...is cheaper more affordable,....shoul l get a GLA250 or Audi Q5 2.0t ...??...thanks for this review...
If you're a viewer from Malaysia then the Q5 you mean will be the first generation, which means the GLA250 is a more stylish, newer option even if it's not as comfy or big. If you're from another country, then it means you're talking about the new Q5, then of course! Go ahead!
bobby please review Golf R which is hot hatch in same segment of A45, Focus RS n others. Btw still enjoy with ur vid, great review i love it. keep it up
The Golf R and Focus RS will of course be compelling ... this GLA45 is the "How to go fast for dummies" of the lot ... you don't need a lot of skills to drive extremely fast and safe. :)
Hi bobby? Is this gla suitable for 60s and how bout the seat, especially the driver seat and the passanger. Is is comfortable for long distance drive. Thanks!
How about the handling? Does it understeer much? How about the grip levels? Have you cornered it to the absolute limit? Steering feel, precision and feedback? I would pay that kind of price if the handling can put a smile on my face (I'm a handling addict I corner cars to the limit when I see no other cars on the road. My car's tire always "botak" on the outside first).
+Kt Loo which one? Most direct segment comparison is the M2, while pro drivers can slide all day long in an M2, this is just as fast, easy and safe to go fast.
Bobby can u please tell me how comfortable is the car as a daily car ? Can it be used as a daily car or the suspension is too rock hard ? Thank you very much
One simple question, in terms of comfort of this GLA45, it is as “comfort” as Gti when the DCC set to comfort mode? Because I’m considering this model as my everyday car. Thanks bobby, appreciate your reply.
IT SY: I’ve just bought a 2018 GLA45. It’s a stunning daily driver and still able to take stuff down to the dump when needed. The modes: Comfort - still a fast car, but the perfect mode for urban and boring commutes. You don’t want the car shouting at you all the time. You want a bit of peace and quiet and it delivers pace with grace in this mode. Sport - Crikey, now you’re talking. When I go out onto the back roads around where I live it’s put into sport and left in automatic. It lifts its skirts up and flies and in all honesty gives me the same amount of fun as my BMW motorbike. But still it won’t break your spine or be too "shouty". Sport+ - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It flies, add the manual flappy paddle options and it’s remarkably childish. But delivers in a splendid Mercedes “loud man in a well cut suit” sort of way. Truly it burps and farts it’s way up and down the gears and delivers a perfect smile every time you drive it in that mode. The traffic in UK being what it is you might only have a couple of miles before you need to calm it down. But that’s the delights of buying an AMG with a hand built engine. So, buy it - you will not be disappointed.
how can you not mention the amount of hard plastics there are on/around the centre console & the way the dashboard is designed where it doesnt match up the front door panels Bobby? and the fact that the door frames are exposed on the interior is just ridiculous... and not to mention its 400k. and p/s the dashboard is covered in Artico leather which means fake leather
+jeremy it's an A Class segment car; by default, a 1 series wont have as good an interior as a 3 series; and if no one tells you the dashboard is man made leather you wouldn't know. The RM150k premium from the A250 is for that crazy engine and drivetrain. You hop into an M2 or M3 or RS4 you cant expect an interior that corresponds to their asking price.
Yup, Bob is right, at around 400k, a stock 2L 4 cyclinder engine firing 381hp is by far the best deal or in fact the best 4 second car you can ever get. If you're a car enthusiast, you probably realize that the A, CLA, and GLA belong to the mini AMG, similar to the 135i M sport, M2, or the RS3, and hence, you can't really expect the interior of higher end AMG models to be incorporated into models that fall within the RM300-400k range.
well, if you take a careful look at the back of the middle console in the new E-class W213, I guess you'll be disappointed as well, as you're paying 400k for some plastic finish. Frankly speaking, if you're really expecting your interior to be covered in leather, alcantara, or some other fancy synthetic materials, you should go for nothing below the s-class.
Adrian Lo Dejavu you should also review your cla45 amg just like how bobby did with this car + your stupid jokes..i bet lots of people wanna watch it.. Ceekiangg aaaa
Only a few nincompoop pussy boys there making noise doesnt mean all AMG owners are like them. They dont represent A45 owners as much as I dont need to pretend i hate cars that I love just because their father bought them one. I was trolling that few loud mouth pussies yeah :) they know who they are.
another great review. any chance you can do a Lexus reivew, be it IS, ES or GS. i would like your take on Lexus, where most ppl think its a over priced toyota over the Double Bs.
+wei wen loh no the ES' engine is of course not as smooth sounding as the 2.5V6; just that for its price, the GS's engine isnt as appealing as rivals. The ES on the other hand, had its merits entirely on this one liner "who says you cant have flagship legroom at premium entry price?" The ES isnt as nice to drive as the GS, but its entire proposition is comfort and quiet and uncle, and it does it so well. Lexus themselces practically killed the GS with the ES because thats what most buyers are looking for, a quiet and comfortable ride. Another thing is the GS's fake engine noise, it's always there like it or not. Meanjng even if you travel at legal speeds fetching your grandma, its constantly making it sound like you're racing.
haha like i said ... GLA45 will be faster in the real world because it doesn't need to brake as often because of the ride height that doesn't take away handling dynamics
Car in this video from your fan? Suggestion to include maintenance schedule and also cost in your review. Think of buying this car as my daily drive transport. Thanks.
in my opinion in a real world test i think golf gti is the best...since you talked about going from point A to point B and getting there as quick as possible. In cities where traffic, speedhumps,etc come into factor horsepower doesnt mean anything because youre not using full 381hp while going from point A to Point B. What matters is how it handles it overall. handling? Golf gti handles better than gla45. there's a reason why golf gti is killing supercars on nurburgring. all stats makes up golf gti in favor of real life city situation. Sure Gla45 has clearance for speedhumps but how many speedhumps are you going to hit every 5 minutes? size of gti makes it easy to navigate to smaller places without worrying. Sure golf gti is not in the same segment of gla45 but your video says "fastest city car" and having driven both and many cars have to say golf gti is better there. just my opinion really.
you are not fully utilizing all 381hp only if you don't hit 6000 rpm, but I'm pretty sure flooring the accelerator in sport or manual mode definitely brings you from point A to point B way quicker than a golf gti does.
+god blessme A45's low suspension travel and lighter weight means on the track it will definitely be faster. But the GLA45's ride height means in the real world, it has the advantage over speed bumps, big road undulations etc - the GLA45 can brake less in the real world, hop less on highspeed highway driving when going over uneven patches.
Yeah bobby, thats why the owner is always faster than me because I have to brake before speed bumps but the GLA45 owner just ride through it but I gotta admit, 3xx Hp is really strong! But too bad the interior looks kinda dull :( Bobby can I just ask a quick question here? If you have 400k on hands for a new car, which car would you go for? NX F sport, A45, GLA45, BMW 5 series?
A45 looks cool, but given that it's a mini hatchback, it comes with 19 inch alloys instead of the 20'' found in GLA, which is another factor to consider when picking between them.
One of the fastest car on the world hahahahahaha so all other amgs are slower g amg gle amg glc amg.. bugati ferarri tesla lambo, lambo urus porsche, bro... stop sheiting on your plate 😂😂😂😂😂
@@BobbyAngmalaysia you must be dummmb i think, so lamborghinni urus and g amg gle amg glc amg and all ford sport version and 700 others faster than this small gla are wthat?? They are not in real worl? Are they ilusion or what?? Just curious..
@@BobbyAngmalaysia since i have gla amg brabus, g amg and urus i really don't get your "REAL WORLD" not everyone lives in a place like you in the middle of a jungle with bad roads and alooooot of trafic driving like crazy with no rules.. and i don't mean that in a bad way or to disrespect you.. just sayin if you have bad roads and you live in that enviroment that doesnt mean whole world have problems the same as you that cant drive low cars and stuff..
Just get my GLA45 2018 for two days, enjoy every second with this beauty. Really as per you say worth every drops of petrol you spend on it.
I thoroughly enjoyed your review presentation on Merc GLA 45..... awesome presenter, truly thumb up!!!
+Chyales Tay thank you so much for the kind worda
Please invest in a gimbal and a mic. 👍
From words fastest real world car, I understand how convenient is the car especially the suspension/ground clearance. Even Subaru WRX CVT version to be said the suspension hard as rock. Not suitable for daily drive more on track use.
I think next time I'm tempted to downsize to a Golf R, I'll remember this video and get one of these instead. 😎
At first I was confused about what you were saying but it was actually pretty insightful
Correct me if I'm wrong. The push start button can be remove and insert the smart key and start the car like a normal car when the smart key battery is low.
You’re correct
Carlton C it's a freaking cool feature to me compared to the BMWs and Audi.
Chick Kam Loong Exactly, it served as a working backup if your smart key /keyfob suddenly running out of juice. But for Audi, , it has a specific spot for you to put the fob at and depress the brake and start the car. I’m not sure about BMW tho haha.
Carlton C yes. Similar to those in the Japanese cars. I'm not sure bout BMW too. Haha.
Carlton C not to mention it feels rather manly compared to pressing the button. At least in my opinion. Lol.

Great review sir. Really love when u compare it under real world driving. Hope you could do a review of the audi tts.

Love this car so much! 👍🏻
thanks!

Great review Bobby. Please do a full review of the new e250

+AndrewChan84 every car has a limit. This one is very high
Bobby I really like your videos, but damn man you really need an external mic.
Sorry can't afford it .... :(
Sell your BMW 640i and get an external mic :P
The point is maybe he wants to capture the sound of the exhaust
Bobby Ang ..
Nice one again Bobbae
good day Mr Bobby,
how is it compared to BMW in terms on handling?
+Kt Loo which one? Most direct segment comparison is the M2, while pro drivers can slide all day long in an M2, this is just as fast, easy and safe to go fast.
Bobby can u please tell me how comfortable is the car as a daily car ? Can it be used as a daily car or the suspension is too rock hard ? Thank you very much
Nope it's not too hard. Acceptable. As a daily car, the hindrance is not so much the suspension but the tight room. :)
Adakah suspension nya sangat keras? Adakah sesuai utk highway di malaysia yg tidak rata?
dear Bobby, could u make a video of 4matic vs xDrive vs Quattro ? I'm ready to buy GLE ,but on other video , I saw Q7 is better than that.
the GLA really need a refresh la, it is too old for being in 2018/9 liao
Hey, can I know what colour is this?

yeah, that's part the reason why we didn't go for the W213. went the G30 530i msport instead. and boy are we impressed.
Bobby,review the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 turbo
I assume Malaysian are waiting for you :DD
I still prefer M2 competition.
But I understand this car have it's own characteristic for fun. 😁

+wei wen loh oh i love the ES. GS on the other hand .... sigh ... good car, weak engine, lousy infotainment.
+Bobby Ang that's interesting , the 4 cylinder 2.5 is better than the v6 2.5. Need to test it out dy

Will try my best to arrange. :)
Thank Bobby! Looking forward to it!
Bobby Ang..
nice review...accord cl1 please!
not sure if my brother allows ....
have you reviewed the cla45 ? or maybe i missed you video about that car
No I haven't ... but like I said in this review, i find the GLA the best amongst the A, CLA group.
BOBBY how is the A45 AMG compare to this GLA45 AMG
haha like i said ... GLA45 will be faster in the real world because it doesn't need to brake as often because of the ride height that doesn't take away handling dynamics
Bobby Ang,how tall are you? I'm 6ft3,will it be comfortable for me?
don't think you'll have issues with the front seats. rear seats might be affected.
Hi Bobby, review the honda s660.
Would love to!
the V60 Polestar is a better everyday car, its more versitile
Bobby can a 195cm boy drive this car? Is this spacious enough?
Yupe im sure its ok
Which Mercedes dealer got ready car for test drive?
+Jerry Ooi sorry no idea .. you have to ask around
Car in this video from your fan?
Suggestion to include maintenance schedule and also cost in your review.
Think of buying this car as my daily drive transport.
Thanks.

In term of affordability reasonable price for performance of course Golf GTI. 😉
