As a dad with 2 teenagers, I guess I can say that Mercedes got me. I love how stiff the suspension is in sport+ but when you run up on a big bump and you clinch thinking you will knock your teeth out hitting it and…nothing…it soaks it up Ike nothing was there. I figured out that you can hit speed bumps, the small sharper ones, and if you go faster it soaks them up and you feel very little jolt, you go slow and you feel the whole thing. The dual chamber air suspension always has that big hit chamber ready to soak up surprises no it’s brilliant. Fun car, great sounds, consistent performance. Firm shifts in sport and sport+ just scoots you along. It feels like an AMG…it was the most surprising thing for me…other than suspension and sound. It’s very honed feeling. Didn’t expect it from a baby AMG. I cross shopped the X3 M40i and while I loved it, the AMG 43 feels way closer to a full fat AMG than a M40i does to a full M car. That’s why these are so good. They feel more special than their M sort counterparts. Also way better exhaust.
It’s an SUV NOT a: Sports car Sedan Hatch back etc etc It’s a SUV…& that’s what I’m buying “not all the above” so I’ll be buying & using “as such” SUV’s for me are for: Country Beaches Bit of “off grid” etc etc where you can take the family dog-dogs out…take the BBQ out “chilly bin” with a few cold ones etc etc…that’s how I see my SUV’s…they definitely aren’t: Sports cars Big Sedans Hatch backs if I really wanted “SPEED” I wouldn’t purchase a SUV

Love the video, banter, and car. Just bought a 2022, blackout, 21" rims, matte gray. It's a blast
You know it’s a great car by watching the smiles on both your faces when you floor it 😁😎
I have the coupe and it be very hard to replace even with no hand-built engine the only hate is the crabbing skipping issue
Do you mean the wheels when turning at slow manoeuvres?
That as not the amg versions and been rectified now anyway
Great video boys. My hubby loves your review. Think you should do Top Gear !! X
Great honest review guys. Can't decide on one of these or an X4 m40i.
Take advice from someone like me who tried them all and Porche Cayennes before buying the AMG GLC43, so glad I did!!
It certainly is! has a problem though! It's too addictive to drive! putting too many miles too quickly on mine! what a machine!
Loving the video xx
We had a c32 a c43 and c55 years ago it's nothing new
I thought glc 63 was discontinued in 2020
Is it really that loud? Or is that “adjustable”. 😎
Depends on the driving mode selected
Debadged? Nice!
man the revving is embarrassing 😭😭
Me and my dad loved this video🫶🏼 Can't wait to see more🔥
It’s an SUV NOT a:
Sports car
Sedan
Hatch back etc etc
It’s a SUV…& that’s what I’m buying “not all the above” so I’ll be buying & using “as such” SUV’s for me are for:
Country
Beaches
Bit of “off grid” etc etc where you can take the family dog-dogs out…take the BBQ out “chilly bin” with a few cold ones etc etc…that’s how I see my SUV’s…they definitely aren’t:
Sports cars
Big Sedans
Hatch backs if I really wanted “SPEED” I wouldn’t purchase a SUV
