Good day to you sir I would like to take your opinion please. If you had to choose between: The Mercedes CLS 53 2022 Or The Mercedes GLE Cupe 2022 What you prefer? Thank you
I have had many many MB vehicles over the years. The cruse control stick that MB used to use was THE BEST solution from any manufacturer, I can’t believe that engineers from MB took a step backwards with wheel controls.
Good video! And good on you for following the rules; you're right in that we should all practise safety first regardless of the vehicle you drive. Kudos to you good sir! And keep up the good work.
@@autogefuehl It happens in the US too. Especially on the highway. It is easy to rear-end accidents in a sudden traffic jam in front of you or on rainy days.😅
More beautiful than any E class or S class. I prefer this design way over any other Mercedes. It is so unfortunate that there is no CLS anymore, so I am forced to buy the CLA
beide geil. Schau mal hier: ruclips.net/video/tloNwJDpceY/видео.html Der CLS wäre egtl. das Pendant zum Audi S7: ruclips.net/video/ze0C8tdV0_4/видео.html
453hp or 435hp? AFAIK it should be the latter...... BTW a note on the instrumentation. Glossy screen in the driver's side display is a big mistake due to glare; also the hooded molding should be made deeper to reduce glare......
@@autogefuehl I see. I wouldn't include that 22hp (mild hybrid) boost in the standard engine output description though... Nevertheless my criticism on the digital instrumentation remains the same. Digital instrumentation needs to be properly configured too at design level......
What a gorgeous, but doomed car. When I drove the CLS450 I knew when I hit the first bump that Mercedes phoned it in. A Mercedes is supposed to be indifferent to bumps and/or shrug them all, but the CLS450 I drove crashed over every bump in the road. Car and Driver and especially MT also said that this car didn't drive like a Benz should and/or like shit (MT). I wonder if this has been fixed for the facelift? This car was supposed to drive better than the E-Class, but it drove worse. Doesn't really matter now I guess since this car is about to be cancelled. The AMG GT is where Mercedes put the engineering effort. A shame because this car is so much prettier.
The diference is on the tyres . The ClS comes with run-flat tyres wich have reinforced profile tyres and give some crashy ride/noise over bumps and potholes. So without those tyres the ride is very smooth with airmatic suspension although looses some easy speed feeling every car gets with run flat tyres.
The reason is Mercedes' design team is really confident and prideful in their current designs, and believe their idea and plan somehow superceeds the consumer reviews and demands; which is that Mercedes design (CLS' rear, E class facelift and EQS to name the recent worsts) need to go through a change to make things more attractive.
i was planning on getting the g 63 amg ....but mercedes increased the price by 35,000 dollars....pathetic!!!!!! and they blamed it on covid ....no other auto maker did such a hike..lost all interest in the brand, now i am looking forward to getting the new model s plaid
how do you do that with your hairstyle. I'm 1.81 m long and I always have to straighten my hairstyle after the ride. And at the back you can actually no longer sit from 1.75 m if you love your back. 🤣
I feel like Mercedes just never cared about this generation of cls. Such a waste of a design and the lack of a v8 amg. I know the amg gt is a thing but that also has a v6 amg version. Really don’t understand why Mercedes has these 2 cars still for sale. One or the other Mercedes cmon
Thomas, tell Mercedes to put this straight six turbo motor into a re-imagined 300 SL. Obviously weight would have to be addressed as well. At that point I might trade my BMW M2.
I hate that poor you Thomas so unnecessary normally a cheaper car jealous of your hard work.. ignore that tailgaters .. Thomas you are the best what would you prefer the E63 or the CLS53 is the RS7 a lot bigger ?

Smooth driving,agility and sporty.....
Good day to you sir
I would like to take your opinion please.
If you had to choose between:
The Mercedes CLS 53 2022
Or
The Mercedes GLE Cupe 2022
What you prefer?
Thank you
Lexus NX review is now here: ruclips.net/video/KaZ5LMkYA44/видео.html
Unpopular opinion: this car is one of the best looking cars out there. Great review as always btw.
You expressed a fact my friend and not an opinion ;) I agree!
It WAS one of the best
The 1st and 2nd gen CLS
This new one is pure vomit
@@joecool9739 nope, all three are a beauties.
@@TheKebabCompany nope. The one before, not that shit now
have a great and sunny Sunday =)
Finally Thomas has road rage! Still the most likeable driving host 🤣
I have had many many MB vehicles over the years. The cruse control stick that MB used to use was THE BEST solution from any manufacturer, I can’t believe that engineers from MB took a step backwards with wheel controls.
The last Gens Audis until the virtual cockpit had that too.
i felt the same way until i become more adjusted to the capacitive. It actually works out well after you get used to it
Good video! And good on you for following the rules; you're right in that we should all practise safety first regardless of the vehicle you drive. Kudos to you good sir! And keep up the good work.
17:16 I did not expect this whole event. 😅 Be careful, Thomas. People can be a bit insane out there.
sure is!
@@autogefuehl It happens in the US too. Especially on the highway. It is easy to rear-end accidents in a sudden traffic jam in front of you or on rainy days.😅
The Hidden Gem of Mercedes-Benz! Great review Thomas :)
Not fan of the color at all, but great car and amazing review
“Tail gaiters” as we call them in the US. Ridiculous higher numbers of them in MA, NY, CT and NJ!
It finally looks big and bold again like the old CLS (boss-mode :p). The pre face-lift looked like it had the same dimensions as the CLA
Prefer the old steering. You can feel the buttons and keep your eyes on the road.
Defo
Ahhhhh, that engine noise.... symphonic.🎶
12:32 We understand.
Why don't I see this car on the official AMG website for the US? Is it not available here?
Now it looks like it should!! Incredibly amazing! It's just sad it doesn't come in the 63S model. This looks muuuch better than the AMG GT 4 Door.
Gt looks more modern newer. I miss the old 63amg 😭
I would go for the 2018 model because of the steering wheel.!
Thanks for the comparison, they made me confused
So I drive the 22 E 53 and never was a fan of the CLS abut I will have to say this this one is pretty sweet.
What happened to the intro? Also, is it just me or Thomas was speaking weirdly faster throughout the episode?
Broooo, I was like why are they in such a hurry😂😂
My choice is the diesel CLS 400D, similar performance twice the range and no complicated hybrid electronics.
Thanks Thomas...and it was!...Struth!
🤟
Beautiful cars. I do find the Mercs quite busy inside. Very nice though
I love the colour.,, gorgeous interior,, very sofisticated... Makes u feel like a king if one owns it.. Lol... Spectacular
... and the steering as well the interior give you that classic, high quality feel and is a visual feast for my 👀.
@@andrekleyn727 steering is awesome
Beautiful car, thanks Thomas.
thanks have a good sunday!
What the Ffffffffff..... class !
Hi Thomas, old fan here. Could you please review the 2021 Jaguar f pace SVR? Thx
great to see you! we ll try!
2015 cls model still the best in my opinion, nice review by the way
Nice colour scheme.
S
"Seats not too uncomfortable"...?
No AMG Performance exhaust Button??
Nice car,and thank you thomas
This car deserved a 63 version the 53 looks badass
Would steal costumers from E63S and AMG GT63S
@@franciscoribeiro9103 Bro, the GT63 is in a different league. You cant even come close to compare those two.
More beautiful than any E class or S class. I prefer this design way over any other Mercedes. It is so unfortunate that there is no CLS anymore, so I am forced to buy the CLA
Hi Thomas great review. Question, if you could choose between this and the RS5 sportback. What would you take home?
The RS5 Sportback is way smaller than a CLS
The direct competitor would be the RS7...not the RS5 Sportback
What color ?
I bought a 2013 cls 250 cdi shooting brake.
Love it. Petrol prices are crazy in Australia so diesel suits me.
Surely you’re kidding, mate? Aussie gas/petrol prices are amongst the cheapest in the developed world and about half what we pay in Europe!
MBUX ?
Do new Honda insight please?
What color is this called
i’m getting this @ 18😮💨😍😍
Very good video😃😁👍🚗
Amazing car 😍😍
thanks enjoy!
Keine Ahnung ob ich so spät noch ne Antwort kriege, aber welches Auto würdet ihr vorziehen? CLS 53 AMG oder Audi RS5 Sportback?
beide geil. Schau mal hier: ruclips.net/video/tloNwJDpceY/видео.html

Always good to have Thomas back. What on earth the idiot in the camper van was doing God alone knows.
Thanks Thomas! Cool car
CLS, my dream car👌🏻 Wish I could get one some day...
They really need to bring back the Shooting Brake version.
453hp or 435hp? AFAIK it should be the latter......
BTW a note on the instrumentation. Glossy screen in the driver's side display is a big mistake due to glare; also the hooded molding should be made deeper to reduce glare......
435 without MHEV indeed
@@autogefuehl I see. I wouldn't include that 22hp (mild hybrid) boost in the standard engine output description though...

maybe depends on if you have air suspension or not
@@autogefuehl It might, but it shouldn't depend on that.
The diference is on the tyres . The ClS comes with run-flat tyres wich have reinforced profile tyres and give some crashy ride/noise over bumps and potholes. So without those tyres the ride is very smooth with airmatic suspension although looses some easy speed feeling every car gets with run flat tyres.
Theres no such thing as a car where you dont feel bumps
Every car has bumps
bring this to the US !
The steering wheel is absolutely 👌👌👌
Why don't they rename it to CLE?
I heard a CLE will come in 2023
Great review. Nice car. 💖 I will miss it... 😢
Still gorgeous Nice review
thanks!
Nice 👍🧨
Will you ever do used/older cars ? I would love to see the rs5 v8 on this channel :)
Was that the 4.2 tfsi?
@@maxnewts yep, 4.2 NA, it's my dream car, the sound is amazing and love the look of the coupe
You don't mess with something that looks like the CLS 53 AMG.
true dat
Please review all new Peugeot 308
Beautiful road
The interior is outdated why?
S class 2022 has different dashboard this one should change as well
I found this older one way better to control
I wonder did the T2 brakes fail. Very surprising to see the type of car normally owned by an enthusiast driven in such a dickish way.
yeah true.
Still missing the Shooting Brake.... :( but lovely car!! Great video!!
“MERCEDES BEST” 👌✔️🇩🇪
Looking extra orange today Thomas! :)
orange light :)
Why don't they just give it the proper 4.0l V8
What would make me not buy this, if I had the money is the fact that I dont want anything that could be mistaken for a CLA
My friend has a cls...dont worry no one will mistake it for cla
I have a CLS Shooting Brake and no way will it ever be mistaken for a CLA shooting brake..... Way more stylish and roomy.
when we have such a sexy CLS we want the sexy passenger back with her leather pants xD anyway good video
I also find the driving scene boring
@@LL-lt3jc what's boring about it?
@@bmwcube1245 without the lady it seems boring! Thomas was so dirty in between. that was entertaining
@@LL-lt3jc your mom is entertaining
Sadly this wont be available in US anymore
Yh I do believe that 435 hp is just about “enough”
Sufficient lmao 😂
م شاء الله 😍🙆🏻♂️
Nothing has changed about this car. It still 'only' looks like a bigger CLA and it's still slower than the CLA 43S.
The reason is Mercedes' design team is really confident and prideful in their current designs, and believe their idea and plan somehow superceeds the consumer reviews and demands; which is that Mercedes design (CLS' rear, E class facelift and EQS to name the recent worsts) need to go through a change to make things more attractive.
ja also in weiß gefällt der mir am besten
On preview i tho it was new cla...
Exterior looks identical to a CLA.
i was planning on getting the g 63 amg ....but mercedes increased the price by 35,000 dollars....pathetic!!!!!! and they blamed it on covid ....no other auto maker did such a hike..lost all interest in the brand, now i am looking forward to getting the new model s plaid
Tesla Model S plaid review: ruclips.net/video/EffB45ISO9M/видео.html
Tesla Model X plaid review: ruclips.net/video/2r-QzeJedBc/видео.html
Everything is perfect minus the tablet screen which I prefer to leave it at home!
I believe my A45S is more fun than this CLS.
Wouldn't bet on it :)
Not trusting a guys opinion of cars after calling Alcantara Steering wheel “microfibre”🤣
I want one!!
I really think the CLS and the AMG GT 4 overlap. I see the CLS as unnecessary.
M8 still king
You’re not pronouncing “Berlin” right, you’re putting the emphasis on the “e”, it should be on the “i”. 😀😅
=)
I thought they would fix its rear which is hated by almost everyone, yet they retained it and even made it worse! 😂😂
I actually like it, gives it a sportier look
Right! The only reason I'm getting the 2017 version smh
I tough it was e53
You'd think a 200k car would have real exhaust tips but other than that, beautiful car!
how do you do that with your hairstyle. I'm 1.81 m long and I always have to straighten my hairstyle after the ride. And at the back you can actually no longer sit from 1.75 m if you love your back. 🤣
I feel like Mercedes just never cared about this generation of cls. Such a waste of a design and the lack of a v8 amg. I know the amg gt is a thing but that also has a v6 amg version. Really don’t understand why Mercedes has these 2 cars still for sale. One or the other Mercedes cmon
wow
Gorgeous car but I think I’d get a E63 that’s more of a 3 box sedan shape and also my real dream amg
:/ tailgating in Germany, no where is sacred!
Thomas, tell Mercedes to put this straight six turbo motor into a re-imagined 300 SL. Obviously weight would have to be addressed as well. At that point I might trade my BMW M2.
Fugly, why have every car look the same. Why have an E?
I hate that poor you Thomas so unnecessary normally a cheaper car jealous of your hard work.. ignore that tailgaters .. Thomas you are the best what would you prefer the E63 or the CLS53 is the RS7 a lot bigger ?
Meers m8! Imho S7 petrol is a very sweet spot!
stretched cla
really hate all these lengthy cars but compromised passenger space. what a waste of space just going for the look.
Your argument makes no sense
The people who want space buy the E-Class
The people who want the dramatic styling get the CLS
@@joecool9739 or the cla for cheaper and similar rear space
Looks exactly like a CLA.
💖💖💖👌

Where's the paint?
Alas, a colour I hate more than white.
