The effort and attention to detail this Guy puts in to review these cars is amazing
Thank you for the support!
I know right so much passion!
This is the first video im seeing by this guy, Based off this comment alone, i hit subscribe. Comment’s have proven to be powerful!
AND he loves doughnuts 💪🔥🔥
I’m into you…
I'm very impressed. This new Mercedes C class hits all the right spots, S class flair in a smaller, more nimble package. I'd say that the car that's feeling the heat right now is the E class. Just like the bigger Mercedes platforms, the C class can really pack-on the options with amazing price tags to match. Great review, Miles. ✔
With the improvements to the C Class and S Class, I agree that the E Class is feeling the squeeze. I expect there will be updates for 2023 to address the infotainment discrepancy, at least
The E class is not going anywhere. With a bigger backseat more cargo volume and more engine options it’ll still warrant the extra $10,000+
the E-class is absolutely bomb. I love that car.
@@ImYoutubing247 Not to mention the wagon option
This is how you do a review! Fantastic! He gets into details, and you really feel like you are in the driver's seat - 10/10
Great review. I bought a similarly equipped ‘22 C300 three weeks ago, in the middle “Exclusive” trim, and I agree with most of your observations. (Mine is missing navigation and the driver assistance package.)
I feel like the normal buyer of this car prioritizes comfort and luxury over sportiness. This isn’t the car I thought I’d buy, but I really liked it and got a great deal on it, which made the buying decision easier. It makes for an excellent daily driver, has nice tech, looks good inside and out, and it’s just sporty enough for me. I’m really enjoying the car so far!
Your reviews are 10/10, you really go really in depth I love it :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy them 😊
Keep up with your awesome job, with all the options and prices, not everyone is up to do this. Thank you !!!
60,000 isn't that bad for smtg like that imo
@@b_amine6477 Depends what priorities you have in this lifetime !!!
@@SauloMogi yea true
I agree! I could barely hear the engine sound when I created a first look of it for the channel this weekend. I’m hoping to create a full review soon. Excellent review!
Lol promoting ur account i see.. cool account tho
I didn’t think I’ll be subscribing to all these car review guys , great work !
Just bought this exact car. So excited to try it out myself!
Holy this blue color looks amazing
one of the best car reviewers ive watched. where have you been all this time
Been making videos for years! Glad you found me 👍
Love your videos and the cats you bring in.
That interior is literaly sooo cool
Looking good Miles!
I am ready to buy this car and your review helped me in the decision quite a lot. Thanks for being so detailed
Fantastic POV on the 2022 2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. I really like some of the new features. Thanks, MPH!
Glad you liked it!
🤡
Awesome presentation.. 😍 Love it
Glad you liked it!
I’ve fallen in love with this car 🤩
This comment was a month ago and today I saw it in person at the Mercedes-Benz dealer 😁 They gonna officially launch it on July 14th in my country. Really wanna get it but my Dad wanna get a Hyundai SantaFe lol 😆
The best new C class review I’ve seen so far.
My dad had the c300e stationwagon for a year, just with black seats instead of the white seats. That was spectacular. It dorve so well and got 220 bhs from the 2 liter 4 cylinder engine and 110 bhs from the eletric motors. it drove 100 km (62 miles ish) in electric mode.
Your videos are legit! Fun and informative to watch. Can you do one for a 2022 Audi S5 Sportback premium plus.
Thanks for the support! I don't think there's an S5 Sportback in the press fleet right now, but if one becomes available, I'll try to review it!
WOW! ITS GORGEOUS
As a merc person, after 2x mercedeses, this looks more appealing than the s class absolute beauty, inside and outside.
Genesis makes better cars
@@roboticvenom1935 genesis is made by Hyundai… I’ll pass
Great detailed review. Subscribed...
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for subscribing
Great review and furthermore when I heard you pronounce chassis I realised I needed to subscribe.
Love the W206 even with lack of V8. its like a mini E ( or S ) class more then ever
4 cyl.. well ok still not an EV coffin
Mercedes design is just ❤️
My 2016 looks so similar and it’s already great. Can’t wait to find out what another 6 years of development makes
With the exception of a slightly stiff and bouncy suspension it’s basically perfect (for the 45k I paid)
Thank you miles and 🇩🇪
Almost at 300k subs dude WOO !!
Almost there! Thanks for the support 😊
Very good review 👍
Glad you liked it!
The videography and cinematography is excellent and the presentation style is very good. I am not going to critique the man, but I am going to drag Mercedes through the mud and the reason why is that in an effort to attempt to cram in the latest and greatest technology and 'keep' their vehicles competitive with BMW, Mercedes has really skimped on a lot of things that made the original C class and early 2000s Mercedes great and well known in the industry. Back then they could easily go for 1,000,000 miles, and they had developed a name and reputation for reliability in addition to luxury, it's why so many older people drove them, they didn't want to do the maintenance and they really enjoyed the ride. A guy I used to work for owned a 2002 S430 and drove it until the engine decided it finally couldn't take anymore at 714,000 miles in 2015, where he was an early adopter of the Tesla Model S 75D. He has close to 200,000 miles on that car but loves the fact that he has unlimited supercharging grandfathered in given how much he drives. The battery has since deteriorated given how many times he has driven the car and in the winter he's lucky to get close to 205 miles of range, in the summer he gets just under 250. It has a nice ride, but for him it's still impractical given how long it can take to charge and how crowded the charging points have become over time. Looking at this C-Class, just from the interior I can tell you that gauge cluster will break when the car hits 55,000+ miles, that center console will stop functioning properly not long after and the turbocharger will decide it doesn't want to function anymore after 85,000 miles. And, in this car market, any new vehicles are subject to a dealer markup, a new mercedes even moreso, so I would expect vehicles like this to be pushing $70,000. The four separate connectors on the wheel just look strange and are more akin to the rear brake lights on the Genesis line of vehicles. The lack of physical buttons for climate control or radio is unacceptable at this price point and with that badge, audi does it better in the S3, which is $6,000 cheaper and has 50 more horsepower, as well as a better digital gauge cluster and user interface/experience in addition to physical buttons for a lot. At this price point, for what you get and for what you use, get yourself a lexus ES ultra luxury, heated and cooled seats, better material, the car is cheaper at $54,000, has more power because of the V-6 engine, and will last you somewhere in the neighborhood of 250,000 miles before you even see anything go wrong with the engine or transmission. With car prices being this high, anyone that this car is targetted toward will not want to spend the time going back and forth from the service center and being charged $2,000 to change a headlight. This isn't ultra luxury like the S550 (What a fantastic vehicle) or the A8L, so who exactly it this car targeted toward? The idiot that wants to drive a mercedes. Don't be that idiot, they've lost what made them great. Do the smart thing, buy a Lexus, if you want performance, get a Honda Civic Si, if you want a good daily driver sedan, get a VW Jetta GLI for $33,000, a sweet 7 speed DSG mated to the ea888 228hp engine, the same as in the Golf GTI, is one of the most reliable engines out there, and the jetta comes in a manual if you would like that option. TL:DR, don't waste any of your hard earned money on a mercedes built after 2005 unless its the S class before 2019, it will not be worth it to say that you 'Have a mercedes' to look cool, it will be much better to drive around your friends in a car that works, like an IS-350, Toyota Camry XSE/XLE V-6, Honda Civic/Accord, VW Jetta GLI, Audi S3, than it will be to drive to the dealership every 5,000 miles to cost you your credit card limit just to sniff in the vague direction of the vehicle.
best vidéo i love
They did a great job with this C class.
What a gorgeous car!
i love new c class its so stylish
Awesome Car Awesome Review
Can’t wait to see what the glc coupe looks like.
Enjoy your nice car and drive. Have a nice day.
i cant wait for mine. im so hyped. love the brand and love this newly designed model! shame i the c63 will be a 4 cyl tho
Excited for thr GLC
Is a real beauty!! Once you drive a Benz you ain’t going back to mainstream cars or Japanese “luxury” cars, now there’s one thing the night package needs to be done and is the black badges!!! At least I did it myself and now is a real night package!!!
I love this car so much
Really love the car and your video.
Unfortunately, it looks like they don't show the AR navigation arrows on the HUD, right?
Have seen this in the E-Class, I believe.. could have also been an S-Class. That one got it for sure. Having the arrows is a nice feature, imo, but having it displayed in the windshield makes it even better.
Looking forward to driving this next time I get a loaner car.
Nice car and nice video
I just had a C300W 2022 with the AMG exterior/night and AMG interior, beautiful car, didn’t last me 4 weeks.
Mercedes HAS launched an investigation into the AMG Line brakes/performance wheels for the C300 2022’s, as well as a factory FAULTY engine coolant thermostat that takes 5-6 weeks to be built/delivered due to short supply of new parts.
I traded it in for a new GLE 450 after owning it for less than a month. Trust me on this, I’ve worked/struggled with the original dealership and MBUSA, as have a few other new 2022 C300 owners.
AVOID
ALSO in any hot state, the central glass screen is a frying pan. Compared to the S class, whose central console is deeper and more back facing than the C300, you get a lot more heat, glare, and overheating on the C300’s panel due to its tilt degree’s.
Hey man with launch control is hit 5.6 real test can't wait c43 e performance.
Do the mirrors have projected Mercedes’ logo in the night? Can’t seems to find that information anywhere. Excellent review
Check out the night drive to see: ruclips.net/video/_NDTPJqVcKY/видео.html
Spoiler: no tri-star logo projection
Love the grill
I can't wait to see what changes they are going to make for 2023 Mercedes-Benz C300. :D
Nice video
I like how in the US the C300 is the base model, while everywhere else its the C200 or even the C180
anything below 200 HP in a luxury car in the USA is forbidden lol
Canada as well
MB seems to offer less engine options for US markets
There are different tax brackets in Europe depending on horse power and/or engine size. That’s one of the reasons why there are more engine choices in Europe.
@@89itis Yeah, but basically the same is true for the US as far as tax brackets are concerned.
If i would want a comfy yet good driving daily driver this would be it 100%
Nah. Honda Accord is the way. Just as fast or faster and much cheaper too
@@Apezilla you don't get girls with a Honda accord
@@ghsense2626 If you need an expensive car to get a girl, then you’re the problem lol
@@Apezilla Not entirely I don't want no ordinary girl, to get a high end girl you need a high end vehicle
@Michael Charity This particular model. If you don’t option it all out you could be in it for 50k. Rs3 is the only comparison, yet it starts at 58k. Optioned out will be over 70k. This fully loaded is 60k for the most part doesn’t have 4matic.
Just for fun you could buy a used s class 2014-2018 for 45k.
Good effort and nice review, question is what’s actual fuel consumption?
good question
can you do a tutorial on how you make such nice pov videos?
I'll try to, yes!
I believe in the individual configuration you can set fully manual shifting in the car configuration. So if you really want full manual that’s where you can get that.
well, if you call manual just pushing some paddles or the shifter without the use of a clutch, OK. Most car enthusiasts would not call that "full manual"
@@brians9508 ok
The best premium car.
is this the new dacia..i love it
This is definitely going to be my 2nd car
Amazing and beautiful car. The only gripe would be with the cheap plastic they use in the interiors
Is this car quieter than the gle 63s on the highway?
such pretty streets...what city and state is this if I may ask?
The downshifts are funny they wind down instead of a subtle one
I drove it for 4 days. The plastic vents and the touch controls on the wheel are not for me. I like some haptic controls… the older steering wheel controls for example… much better for me
nice neighborhood for living and driving,
I'll wait until the AMG version
had a choice... new c 300 or a used c450 AMG... fully loaded.... landed on the c450, no regret
I will be in the market to buy a new car soon and I want a MB. I always wanted one and I remember wanting a C class in 2012 and they were $34k at the time. Now they start much higher and when you spec it out, for me it comes to about $50k. The issue I have with that... is the GLB. The AMG 35 version spec out with many features I would want comes to about $55k. That value just feels unbeatable for me. So much more room. I think that is where I will go. I would love a C class but maybe at 10k less.
What's different with C coupe 220d ?
it could be interesting to take a test on a car like this.
Lol that was Woodbury Town center that he drove by.
Is the neva grey almost white?
Nice car 😎😎😎
W204 one love ❤️
I owned my w204 from new for 10 years then sold it and it’s been regret since 2018 when I went to a golf gti. I drove the w205 whenever mine was in for service and no doubt the w204 was the best. Feeling sad now…
Car no go space, car go road
Please Please do a vw arteon 2023 base model and top model
Hi MpH!! Mercedes Benz Class C or Kia Stinger? Which one do you like the most??
good for you,
very nice! although i believe the curb weight of this vehicle isn’t 27 MPG combined (description)
🤦♂️ fixed! Thanks for the heads up
My dream combo would be this car and the GR Corolla.
I love Mercedes Benz new design the only thing I don't like the engine is a hybrid also the steering wheel everything else it's perfect
The engine being a hybrid is a very good thing
@@bwmim9709 not really
How is the ride compared to e class ?
Dope
$60,000 can get you a really well-equipped previous gen S-Class, a genuine AMG model probably.
And a 5k trip to the dealer your first service... There's a reason why used german cars are so cheap used.
@@kaz128 Extended warranties exist. Also, they aren't nearly as bad as they used to be in the early-mid 2000's.
@@1Reddd yea right buy a used amg model with no warranty left that was beaten on by the previous owner 😂😂 you’re a troll lol 🤡
@@vlone_slatt3504 better than buying a base model S-Class old man spec
@@1Reddd shut up lol 😂 you can’t afford the car cry about it 🤡
Great video. But it doesn’t make me want one over my Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce. It’s ahead of my car in some aspects of tech but that’s about it. My Giulia also has real leather seats. 0-60 in 5.1 seconds and Brembo Brakes.
I wish Merc brought us their lesser engines that are less high maintenance. These cars are gonna be future hood classics with the depreciation they'll face.
So what happens when you accidently bump that gear shift up to reverse as your turning the steering wheel while moving forward?
Electronic nannies won't allow it.
Like what they did with the car hate the new c43 they took everything away that made it a c43amg honestly super turned off by that. Should have stuck with the ttv6 gave it a power bump to around 480/500 and made sure it had launch control. The upgrade the c63 needs is awd wich it was lacking in the w205 model. Hopefully the new c63 isn't a dumpster fire as well. Also in 2022 I'm astounded were not going for edge to edge displays
This vehicle is highly desireable 😮
Wow I can't believe they made it slower in acceleratation
Question, is the AMG line sport suspension non adaptive like the base class is? A little confusing with how you worded that. Other reviewers have said it is still adaptive just harsher and lower ride height?
It is indeed still adaptive, just with firmer springs and new tuning
@@MilesPerHr much appreciated 😎
does this one has spoiler ????
2:44🤣🤣 did you see it yet? Mercedes design team be wildin
😆 😱
The cabin is absolutely nice but I would never buy it due to it’s 4 cyl. I personally would rather get a M340i, but I understand this definitely works for most buyers.
You can’t afford 2010 model probably so I would be quiet

@@MaxK934 i’m driving w205 AMG line 300d my brother, as you can see in some of my videos. New w206 300d will come in couple of days. Cry baby 🥲
Having to turn his feet sideways then sit down and twist his feet forward underneath the seat in front of him and he says " . . . good size foot pockets . . ." hahahaha. Foot pockets!!!! When your feet are flat on the floor, and you have them back as far as they will go, and you can only see half of your foot, then "foot pocket" is the correct phrase. I managed to get into the back of one of those things and actually almost twisted my ankle and fell down trying to get back out - I had to sort of pull myself out by grabbing the frame of the door and using my arms more than my legs while i tried to maneuver myself. If I were the owner, I would be too embarrassed to ask an adult to sit back there.
Love the car!! But I personally would want more horsepower under the hood
Especially for 60K....
What if you accidentally hit the parking gear while driving?
Interior is really nice but the exterior looks like every other sedan
When I’m older I want a nice diesel truck for work then a bmw or Mercedes’ as a play car
