Wow>>>>impressive and as usual what a fantastic review well done. Can’t wait for GLC 43 AMG review. At the conclusion, what would you go with (one of these or Macan GTS?)
@@Awaks maybe hes referring to cars like sls,slr,slr Stirling moss,clk,clr,sl65,c63,s65 and other iconic models from Amg/Mercedes and not necessarily 4 pot crossovers.
I honestly feel people who choose to buy this specific model must buy it for the styling. People bought AMGs for being fast but more importantly how they sounded. You can buy an X5 M60i with a V8 or buy an X3M with an inline 6 that are fast AND sound good… and have Digital Key functionality.
Some buyers are just more comfortable with brands, so they are probably MBZ owners already...I dont know exactly what digital key is but I say this car is very impressive and I would purchase over a BMW, Porsche and Audi model... (I have had MBZ's, BMW's, and Porsche ...cars, not suvs)...I haven't finished watching the video yet, nor have I gone to other sites to see the price...but it should be worth it...I mighta missed it, but I could do without SOME of the engine growling sounds (yes, I am older)....
Thomas, excellent review, as always. You’re the best reviewer on the net! What a suv!! I’m not a fan of matte paint, but this magno silver is wonderful. Cheers from Brazil!
twin turbo V8 owner here and I think the crazy 4cyl performance power units can be a lot of fun (i.e. Polestar 1). I'm sure the next gen of this Merc PU will be more of what we expect - better MPG and battery performance. As for the plug in part, maybe it's biggest function is to trigger the plug in EV tax credit ($7500) here in the USA. That's if this GLC qualifies, the law is so confusing lol
US lease tax credit is a benefit, but regulations in EU and China are the primary driving factors. Both are far more stringent than the US. China specifically taxes based on displacement. US tax credit hadn't actually passed when Merc was planning this powertrain (years ago). I'm still curious to see real-world MPG by owners who plug it in every night and primarily commutinlng. I bet it'll be pretty solid. And yes, the US tax credit law is absurdly complicated lol.
These cars are getting so heavy, and you definitely feel it, haven driven the new c63. What would be alot better would be to have smaller hybrid battery and keep the v8.
Another great review. Always nice how much detail you put into it, I wish going to a dealership they would explain things this well lol. Looking forward to the GLC SUV 43 review video, hoping it comes out soon as I am potentially targeting that!
F1 Cars get way more out of even smaller engines. The true magic is to make this engines reliable. I doubt this engine will last anything near 200.000 km.
Priced at 100k+. Its seems counterintuitive with a smaller engine. I can bet with a bigger engine minus the battery it would’ve cost cheaper to build. I don’t know who this car is for.
It's all about looks and bragging rights.... Most people who don't know or either don't care with powering the car they just concerned about the speed and it's a Mercedes and it's AMG...
The best thing about my W205 4.0L C63S was that it could play around below 50kph in heavy traffic. Could just flick the gas pedal and it would growl, snarl and pop at those low speeds and low rpm. Can this 4-cyl do any of that at all??
Looks nice. but honestly, not AMG anymore, vacuum cleaner ! Not even close to my V8, unfortunately…! Luckily I bought last proper GLC AMG 4 MATIC PLUS 63s
Exactly a shame the looks of the glc63 and c63 are so good but just missing that v8 . I’ve got a glc 43 coupe as daily and even that sounds better than these new releases
Respect. Your review and opinions highly appreciated. Good videos. Anyway I would like to buy and own this vehicle for it's complicated systems. I like complicated systems that make my brain works and understood way of mercedes amg engineers thinks and then appreciated the reasoning behind it.

I really love these extraordinary cars-and reviews!-but realistically, most drivers will find themselves stuck behind trucks and Camrys much of the time. No autobahn for most of us, sadly. 😊
Amazing you say its the best driving SUV after you have driven the Maserati Levante with the Ferrari V8 and the Lamborghini Urus and the top spec Cayan. You have not driven the Ferrari Purosangue right?
I am so glad I bought the previous gen GLC 43. Not a fan of the new one's interior (big touch screen) nor it's motor (4 cyl option only). Previous gen looked more aggressive and had a better stance. This gen's shape gives me Lincoln Towncar MKT vibes.
that fake sound sounds so weird 22:00, idk if its because of the way the mic picks up the sound but it sounds too loud and unatural, idk how to describe it, but is not nice
Great review Thomas. Phenomenal performance and sounds great. Incredible when you consider the vehicle's weight. It took less time to reach 62mph than speaking the model name 😂.
Customers will teach Merc a lesson, there are plenty good engines at this price point with similiar performance and fun without all the meanlingless hassles.
Worthless 2L amg at least give a 3L. I know that they have tuned the 2L to give the same max performance but bro no one is gonna stretch to that max speed. Everyone wants the mid range kick from the bigger engine which will be more lively
Have you drive this car… it give mighty mid range kick! It may not make any Sense, but this is hack powerfull car. 3l engine would be less powerfull, less sporty. It much much more simpler and less expensive…
I am not a Fan of that concept. There are more disadvantages than advantages. V6/i6: Smoother run More power output Much easier to tune Way more reliable Better power curve Better sound (personal preference) Only advantage of a 2.0 i4 is less weight compared to 6 Zylinder. The glc 63e is 250kg heavier than x3m. That's a lot.
I hope Mercedes learn from the poor sales of the AMG C class that customers don’t want this level of tech overload. This will be as unpopular. Porsche has shown you can still produce great ICE performance SUVs within current emission levels.
Porsche can only do so, because they sell so many Taycans and they will also not bring out new ICE SUVs anymore - all future models will be electric only. Porsche plans to sell 80% BEVs by 2030. Mercedes currently has bigger issues meeting the emission targets - selling this GLC or C63 with a V8 would result in a 13.000€ fine per vehicle today (and increasing in the future). Everything Mercedes can learn here is to not do in between things, but fully move to EV instead. That‘s the only other option they have.
@@timonxDlolThat’s got nothing to do with why AMG are selling this car as a replacement for a high displacement engine. They have way more flexibility with their mix of ICE, hybrid and EVs. There’s nothing to stop Porsche continue to sell ICE SUVs if they continue with their e fuel argument with the EU. Liking your own comment 😂
@@funkyfin3023 they have 0 flexibility. They cannot meet the fleet emissions and have to reduce them a lot and that‘s why the c63e has a 4 cyl which on paper emits 100g less co2 per Km than the V8 which saves mercedes >10.000€ per vehicle
@@timonxDlol😂 stop talking nonsense. They have flexibility across their range to increase EV and PHEV production and balance their emissions that way like all manufacturers. One model in the entire range doesn’t determine that balance and there is no specific 10k impact on one vehicle. Bye.
@@funkyfin3023 they don‘t get their BEVs sold and would need 3 BEVs for every C63 sold to compensate for it today. They already now do not meet emission targets. It is not one model they have a shitton of high emission models and they get rid of most of them
Why can't mercedes design the chassis to accommodate the battery from the start? They know it will have a battery in its line up. Why not intergrade the battery in the chassis rather than having that eye sore
I think they're trying out a new way of figuring out what actually needs a v8 or a v12 because I feel like the v8 are becoming too saturated across there line up so maybe v8 and v12 for top of the line cars like the S 63 s e performance or the GT 4 door and v6 and v4 are for what ever comes below that
I understand Thomas’ criticisms for the seemingly undue overteching of this vehicle as the means to ‘best SUV performance,’ but my main concern would be the effect on price. It is bound to be expensive to both buy and maintain, let alone run. All that leaves you wondering: how much can I save buying from the competition? I would be comparing Porsche here.
the only thing i like about that engine is that if ill ever be able to afford one second hand the taxes in my country would be lower due to the 2 l engine 🤣
The German automotive industry are slowly commiting suicide by producing overly complicated vehicles that are prohibitively expensive, that no-one asked for (or wants), that do not significantly improve the brief of the outgoing models.
They all offer more practical and affordable cars. This is targeted at a specific wealthy market, and they will have no problem selling the number of units they planned for, or are you saying you know more than the entire German automotive industry research and marketing departments?
@@dfxl6587 VWAG are in $192 Billion of debt. Nobody wants to buy their cars. Their once famous quality has evaporated. Their sales are being usurped by the Chinese to the point VW are having to heavily discount in China to get any sales. They are shelving plans for new factories and laying off staff. BMW produce ever more unattractive cars at unaffordable prices. Same goes for Mercedes; replacing iconic models with expensive imitations that nobody is buying (C63 anyone?). The German government were forced to push back on the ban on ICE vehicles because the collective German auto industry knew it would not be ready. In the meantime they are producing crap that no-one wants to buy, with technology that does not do what people want (electric range in general, is hopeless compared to diesel/petrol). Don't kid yourself that all is well. It isn't.

Holy smokes this car looks amazing! Incredible exterior styling! Awesome review as always!!
Not a bad execution. I guarantee you eventually, the ultimate form of luxury will be to have physical buttons in cars of the future
I have to say. The Glc looks amazing especially in red. Merc done great job with the design. Of course amazing vidoe Guys
Thanks 🙏
Yet again I find myself totally agreeing with you Thomas!

Beautiful area!!
That rear end tho 😲🔥
Nice shorts man, I heard they come mandatory with every 4-cyl AMG

Soon enough S class would be getting a 4 cylinder as well,knowing how badly the screwed this up and also the C63s lol
Your videos are super! When will you be doing the new GLC 43 AMG review?
Thanks 🙏 yes waiting to get one! Probably in about 1-2 months
Please do a video of the 43 version !! Great video
Great content! As always. Regarding the car, a C63 without a V8 is just a no go imo.

Thanks for spending some time talking about the location you were filming! Looks beautiful
Very cool! I like the very interesting techy powertrain, there's always the other AMG you mentioned if you want something simpler and more old school.
keep waiting to see the glc 43 version review, as you were promised at the end of the video. wish to see the detail and make the call to buy one......
yeh so far not available but i ll keep trying
It looks stunning ❤🔥
I agree with your thoughts at the end Thomas. Thank you for the detailed review!
That's a lot of info to be looking at instead of the road. Hope the safety features are really good.
Didn't they say GLC 43 is coming out BEFORE the GLC 63 S E Performance?? So where's the GLC 43 review? :D
No way a 4 pot in an AMG (except A class because of size/weight/agility). I love my glc43 v6 .. the sound is sooooo ❤

@@navy4rihlife no trucks in Europe?
Great review! Always love watching your videos, so much detail. I completely agree with your summary around the engine.
Mercedes here I come. Agree on the engine type you talked about.
It does look good in this spec 👌
Not even a V6? Love the wheel though.
Amazing you say its the best driving SUV after you have driven the Maserati Levante with the Ferrari V8 and the Lamborghini Urus and the top spec Cayan. You have not driven the Ferrari Purosangue right?
GLC COUPE can’t wait
Mercedes needs to focus on improving reliability and using harder plastics on the inside to reduce creaking.

Customers will teach Merc a lesson, there are plenty good engines at this price point with similiar performance and fun without all the meanlingless hassles.
In this era, the residual value of the AMG is louder and more expensive than any future car
Since you are a fan of V8's, looking forward (hopefully) to your review of a Jaguar F-Pace SVR before its engine becomes history
I like watching German car reviews with German accent 😊
agree V6 is would be the way
Worthless 2L amg at least give a 3L. I know that they have tuned the 2L to give the same max performance but bro no one is gonna stretch to that max speed. Everyone wants the mid range kick from the bigger engine which will be more lively
Have you drive this car… it give mighty mid range kick!
It may not make any Sense, but this is hack powerfull car. 3l engine would be less powerfull, less sporty. It much much more simpler and less expensive…
I am not a Fan of that concept. There are more disadvantages than advantages.
V6/i6:
Smoother run
More power output
Much easier to tune
Way more reliable
Better power curve
Better sound (personal preference)
Only advantage of a 2.0 i4 is less weight compared to 6 Zylinder.
The glc 63e is 250kg heavier than x3m. That's a lot.
Even the 400d is a 3.0L R6 so basicially it has a better engine than the AMG version lol

I hope Mercedes learn from the poor sales of the AMG C class that customers don’t want this level of tech overload. This will be as unpopular. Porsche has shown you can still produce great ICE performance SUVs within current emission levels.
Porsche can only do so, because they sell so many Taycans and they will also not bring out new ICE SUVs anymore - all future models will be electric only. Porsche plans to sell 80% BEVs by 2030.

@@funkyfin3023 they have 0 flexibility. They cannot meet the fleet emissions and have to reduce them a lot and that‘s why the c63e has a 4 cyl which on paper emits 100g less co2 per Km than the V8 which saves mercedes >10.000€ per vehicle
@@timonxDlol😂 stop talking nonsense. They have flexibility across their range to increase EV and PHEV production and balance their emissions that way like all manufacturers. One model in the entire range doesn’t determine that balance and there is no specific 10k impact on one vehicle. Bye.
@@funkyfin3023 they don‘t get their BEVs sold and would need 3 BEVs for every C63 sold to compensate for it today. They already now do not meet emission targets.
It is not one model they have a shitton of high emission models and they get rid of most of them
Great detailed video as always :)
I already ordered the GLC43, i am curious about your test and next video :)
Hello Thomas. Where was this shot? The view is spectacular.
Why can't mercedes design the chassis to accommodate the battery from the start? They know it will have a battery in its line up. Why not intergrade the battery in the chassis rather than having that eye sore

Do you think they will put the same engine in the all-new GLE model?
I'm convinced the V8 I hear outside is a little bit "digitally produced"
I genuinely think it's Speakers anyone else in on this?!?!?
I explained how it works in detail in the video
Very informative
Top Auto,Bravo fur Video🤙⭐️
Cheers!
omg the fake cabin noises are extremely offputting
yesss, especially at 22:00 when he overtakes
I checked the dictionary for accelerometer. Lea’s photo appeared! 😹
Is it more powerful than Macan Turbo S?
Without air suspension? Is that means it's downgrade of its off-road capability compare to the non amg version ?
I understand Thomas’ criticisms for the seemingly undue overteching of this vehicle as the means to ‘best SUV performance,’ but my main concern would be the effect on price. It is bound to be expensive to both buy and maintain, let alone run. All that leaves you wondering: how much can I save buying from the competition? I would be comparing Porsche here.
Mercedes recently rose prices and also cut on discounts indeed
What about a slightly cheaper one: ruclips.net/video/Cfm2ZgZb32M/видео.htmlsi=472dAGWpAU5uQUeJ
the only thing i like about that engine is that if ill ever be able to afford one second hand the taxes in my country would be lower due to the 2 l engine 🤣
next generation c class with 6,2 lt naturally aspirated hybrid please. at the end, the aim is low co2 emission right?
480 hp from the 2lt. Turbo? Astonishing!
Yes quite, but i worry about the reliability and longevity of the power-train.
The repair bills for this will be even more astonishing
@@JAM_2024 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that extra long name is not environmentally friendly
it looks like the best ones in this gen are C43 and GLC43
Id take a Macan (either the old one or the new electric one) or an X3M over this. This price for a 4 cylinder, no thanks.
Only One question today : how many cylinder ?
Dayum that’s a sexy car
Would it be simpler to say the vehicle's VIN #?
The German automotive industry are slowly commiting suicide by producing overly complicated vehicles that are prohibitively expensive, that no-one asked for (or wants), that do not significantly improve the brief of the outgoing models.
Not comfortable either. Buy gle
They all offer more practical and affordable cars.
This is targeted at a specific wealthy market, and they will have no problem selling the number of units they planned for, or are you saying you know more than the entire German automotive industry research and marketing departments?
Do the wealthy want 4 pot 2 litre engine? No charisma, fake sound and exhaust pipes and intakes

VWAG are in $192 Billion of debt. Nobody wants to buy their cars. Their once famous quality has evaporated. Their sales are being usurped by the Chinese to the point VW are having to heavily discount in China to get any sales. They are shelving plans for new factories and laying off staff.
BMW produce ever more unattractive cars at unaffordable prices. Same goes for Mercedes; replacing iconic models with expensive imitations that nobody is buying (C63 anyone?).
The German government were forced to push back on the ban on ICE vehicles because the collective German auto industry knew it would not be ready. In the meantime they are producing crap that no-one wants to buy, with technology that does not do what people want (electric range in general, is hopeless compared to diesel/petrol).
Don't kid yourself that all is well. It isn't.
@kevinwall795 yes poor Mercedes only making 14bn in profit last year. How will they survive!
WOW, the rear Spoiler looks like D&W in he 90's 😂 The same shit that VW did to the Golf R 😂
I think it looks gorgeous ❤
I really like it, but unless I win the lottery I won't be able to afford one :/
