Alex is doing a very good job, no complaints, but Rory can't be replaced. Rory''s voice and charisma are at a completely different level and would love to see more of Rory content
My guess is they’re preparing for Rory moving on to something else.
Rory should apply for a Job at Auto Express as he would a great News Writer
Yeah but Alex likes it in the back to so
😂 you’d rather I write news articles than make videos?
@@AutoTraderTV wait a minute, is Rory the admin?
First of all: Well and professionally made in general, but what I was really missing is kind of a more objective review. This review is like watching somebody directly out of the marketing department of MB talking about their car. Just a high praise of every aspect of the car without any critical point. This is for sure not very plausible, especially since with the previous one, there was quite a lot to complain about. Considering that the current MB interiors in general really look nice, but feel rather cheap from a haptical point of few… and so on… this video simply looks like sponsored by MB.
Critical comments and points should also be part of a good car review in my opinion.
I agree. I had mentioned this before when she review for the first time, she sounded like a salesman. She hasn't improve it & now sounds boring even though she is a racing driver.
Most of the reviews in this channel are like this, more advertising than honest opinion, even the guy himself loves every car that he drives!
Exactly, I felt like I was watching a marketing video with very little information. I'll probably unsubscribe from this channel soon.
100% agree. Biased review. The title said it all.
don't forget pls 258 mpg 🙃
I'm really torn between the new GLC and the new X3. Love them both. I think i'm gonna flip a coin...and go with a Kia
KIA is great too and at fractions of the price
Ev6 is great but Kia aren’t quite there yet.
@@ts6070 not talking about ev6. Average quality at best. Sportage is the model to go for
lol I’m doing the same thing except flipping a coin to a Jeep Cherokee 😅
She's original and not trying too hard. I'm starting to really like her. Nice review.
Hey, the GOAT Rory need a break from time to time.
can’t wait for the GLC coupe to come out now. interiors are so beautiful
She’s pretty good. Nice work 👍🏼
Its like watching another channel, the voice is soothing almost like listening to the mermaid Rory was catching. People that say they want him back should decide if they want growth and more content where creators get time to fly and review different things and events or they want Rory to do everything with limited content while other channels like SuperCarBlondie are growing and delegating content. This video is quality even without Rorisang, because it already has his essence. He wouldn't bring someone who don't know what they're talking about.
Who's this Rory fella? 🤔
@@eggplantandpeach he's a bit of a rookie car reviewer hoping to make it big one day
@@falcongamer58 haha! smh.. 😔
this video is just a stats report
@katlego Mohlala I saw that one too....😀😀😀😅😅😅
Really nice Merc. Very happy to see Alex back. So smooth review! I really loved it
Nice review Alex. Very watchable!
I love Rory. But i understand he is trying to transition somehow, and I would normally dislike this. But somehow I really like you. Your voice is soothing, you are articulate and I enjoy listening to you! So… this is encouragement for your good job!
What's the range for the diesel plug-in hybrid?
Great review. I've always had a soft spot for the GLC and based on this it's a fine tuned version of the last car. No drastic change needed when the original template is so good.
How did Tesla ever get into comparisons as being a luxury car to benchmark against Mercedes? 😂
Price
Sales comparison, that’s about it. Quality is night and day.
Good job Alex! Love your review, sharp as always.
Blimey, Rory has changed his hair... Loving the new look 😉🤣
4:57.. Lol!! Did she really just say that! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really like Alex filming videos
Doing great Alex!
Why isn't the AIRMATIC adaptive suspension going to be available on UK cars like it will be in other markets?
I would guess it has to do with simplifying the manifacturing process for right hand drive vehicles. After all those are manufactured in a lot smaller quantities compared to left hand drive ones.
282 miles per gallon? Thank you very much girl, I'm going straight to the Mercedes dealer.
Maybe on the next family SUV she should present with Rory, let’s see them show the practicality for both spouse on a daily setting
I prefer Rory doing the reviews.. he's more subjective and seems to understand cars more
Stunning! As a Volvo xc40 owner! This glc looks so enticing
Great review put so much work love it ❤️
Girl good but we want Rori back
"I really like it in the back too" Great....
Like you Benjamin?
Its a one-way street
@@benjaminwitt1762 that's what you told him?
@@pastorofmuppets8834 Soccer fans...
Everyone was making review of this gorgeous beauty but Autotrader yet always make a review different and exciting from rest. Appreciate Autotrader love your channel from deepest of my hear
what do you recommend bw this GLC and GT Sportage. You have driven both right ? Please advise thanks
When is the coupe version coming?
And while I’m at it, I drove the 220d version last February. It was comfortable and well appointed, but god was it a sluggard. Most annoyingly it had those pointless side steps fitted and all they did was get my trousers covered in road muck every time I went to exit it.
I have the ‘21 GLC, and I can completely agree with the sidestep criticism. First of it’s not a really tall car, so it’s unnecessary. And oh my god the road muck. Every single time I get out if my car, my jeans always get dirty
Any known issue with the 48V mild hybrid system? Heard there were issues in other models.
What is the color of the tasted car?
I hate those electronic screens. They are everywhere which makes me feel sick. Please make the buttons and layout pretty, so we can have the mechanical feel. Not the big cheap electronic screens!
I've owned 3 Mercedes vehicles for about 4 years now... And I can tell you this:
Their interior build quality is just polished cheap, scratchy material that's always rattling and squeaky with tons of plastic. I just don't get it. I feel like I was tricked into buying all 2 cars and 1 SUV.
Merc has an excellent marketing team and strategy, but I think their cars are grossly overrated and backed up with a lot of hype.
Looking forward to buying a Porsche or Bimmer this coming winter.
What can I say? I love good interior quality
Lexus has great interior with modern tech. Porsche has outdated interior tech. BMWs are okay but spend a lot of time in the shop.
@@TheWinonaJohnson Lexus just updated their interior this year on only two vehicles, the NX and RX. Lexus is behind every single competitor with regards to interior and tech.
I like what Mercedes have done to the GLC, although, I’d still prefer an X3 or a XC60
That interior is insane!
Thank you for this video, do you know the colors name of this car in your video? Thx
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. The New Model looks even better now particularly featuring the New Infotainment System as seen In the S-Class Saloon
I am in love with the gorgeous car and the even more gorgeous presenter..very beautiful 😍 ❤
New drinking game, take a shot every time she says “really” 😝
Nice review
I enjoyed this review as much as I think I would have, had it been done by Rory. Great job Alex, keep it up!
Love her review. It was actually a delight to watch!! And great info!!
Quite a fan of her tbh :)
Well done!!
Nice feview, but suprised there are 0 drawbacka... A bit more criticiam here andnthere would have been super
I like Rory and Alex. Great video
Rory you got competition my guy 😜
it's a big big YES from me, too.
282 miles per gallon? That sounds a bit too good to be true haha
I cannot decide x1 kia sportage mercedes glc or volvo xc40 please help
Has it been confirmed if the base model of the new GLC will start at 54k in the US?
If so, it's way more expensive that the base models X3 and Q5.
comparing apples to apples (eg. GLC 300 vs X3 i30) X3 is a bit more expensive. Also, the BMW needs a lot of extras while the GLC usually have 3 packages.
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!
Can't wait for GLC43... Hope it'll look 🔥🔥🔥 like 2023 C43 AMG
Nicely done! Alexandra
Plug in is the way to go until range and infrastructure catch up in north America anyways
any info on the new glc 63?
great video.I'm One of Your Fans.
The Model Y is currently the best selling premium SUV in Europe?! It's not even close to being that in its home market! This proves one thing very clearly for me. Charging infrastructure is everything for an EV to be successful. This also means that the rest of the world is simply not ready for EVs. So expect far less global interest for your EV UA-cam reviews.
I think you might be wrong. Looks as if the Lexus RX (which is in a larger category) sold 26000 units in Q2 2022. Model Y sold 53000 units. Also, Teslas has more Supercharger locations in the US than anywhere else in the world. 1600+ in America and 842 in Europe.
@@AutoTraderTV I stand corrected. This is surprising because I hardly see any here in the Canadian Prairie provinces, which is my point. You guys in the UK are densely populated, and have a great EV charging network. However in less densely populated areas or poorer counties, EVs are not practical enough for EV reviews to be of any value. Broad statements around the impending future being EV dominated sound way too optimistic to me given where I live and sound more like a reflection of your local circumstances than relevant for everyone in the world.
1:54 for a second i thought this was a torn seat. i was like what?
Digital headlights? What does that mean?
Intelligent lights. They make the road ahead super bright (full beam) except for when / where there are other cars.
@@AutoTraderTV thanks - so active shadowing/matrix?
How do they compare with BMW laser lights?
nice review 👌
Excellent vid
My favorite suv is the GLE coupe, even though I can't afford it 😫.
It is the most beautiful of all of the models!
Wait, did you really say 282 miles per gallon? Does that mean it can go 5,000 miles on a tank of gas? That would make this the most efficient vehicle in human history.. And if it's not that, what else does the 282 number mean, is that the range?, I hope not b/c that would be terrible
My question as well, they usually bullshit these mpg numbers because the test is only like 20 miles and this has an ev mode so they’ll use that for 90% of the test to artificially pull it up, I think it really averages 60mpg in it’s hybrid mode
The 200+mpg figures are turning into a bit of a joke, if the new tests are 50 miles in distance then Mercedes can claim the GLC 400e does infinity miles per gallon. BMW you started this nonsense.
10/10 Supermarket Car
So it has got "everything for going of road" so presumably a low transfer box?, and at a minimum a locking rear differential,? does the centre and front diffs lock as well??
Misquoted. Also, technically you don’t NEED any of that to go off road.
Nice review!
I really think this generation, the lexus nx takes the cake
Best thing about the interior are the Vents. They are Jet turbines. Next are the Volvo-like headrests and seats. Forget the touch sensitive controls. The Giant pad looks somehow more suited to this than any other Mercedes.
Great review. I do think the X3 LCI looks better from the outside and is better to drive. Not much between the two but I’d go for the BMW.
Does anyone know if all the new GLC models come with the large central screen, I see some pictures of them still with the smaller screen above the air vents but not sure if that is just the older model
I get that she likes it but…. Has she no criticism, what does she not like about it, what is the charging time, how often do you need to charge etc the quality of the production is good as per usual
Why is a UK based channel providing figures such as MPG? What happened to the metric system L/100KM?
For cars, we used MPG, MPH, Miles...
@@AutoTraderTV that's fine but it would be better for viewers like me if you could display the figures converted in metric system as text on the video 👍
Alex is really good.
Ambient lighting ☕
She is amazing!
4:55 "I really like it in the back too" 😅 (sorry)
Much like you Phil?
I am not really interested in the GLC but stayed for the review anyway. You are doing a great job! Well done!
Love the fact that Alex is just being herself and natural ,great review .
JDMs now really have to step up their games cuz this compact SUVs just blows them out of competition.
Actually Volvo XC60 is the best selling mid size SUV in Europe ;)
The GLC43 is the one after - will wait for that.
Great video, however, the Tesla model Y is not a _premium_ SUV😄 The quality is rubbish when compaired to actual premium brands (such as MB, bmw, Audi).
As much as I missed Rory, I enjoyed the video too.
Rory who ??!! J/k... Loving Alex and her style and presentation, a welcomed fresh spring air
I got to test it yesterday. Nice looking from car, seems big enough from the outside, like proper family SUV.... yep a family of minions maybe. I'm 189cm tall and when sat in driver's seat my eyes are at the level of the top of windscreen. I looks at the dashboard like it's on my knees. Door arms inside are made of the horrible cheap, hard plastic and the seat adjusting buttons have no feedback anymore. They feel like they fell off and glued back with a superglue. Beautiful steering wheel ruined by the side buttons which are not real button but some sort of slide over plastic surface. Very disappointed because it looked so promising.
So it feels more like a BMW now when driving. That’s a good thing . The current X3 which is just an LCi is still the class leader as it was for a while now. As usual the interior will date quicker than a BMW and then everyone will complain how Merc is losing their build quality . Then the new X3 new generation will come out next year and still be the best but then miles ahead. Between these two brands it’s a cycle that goes on and on and that’s a good thing. It would be nice to review the Glc from a driving point of view but then by default the reviewer will say it’s nice and if you prefer an engaging drive then the x3 is the one. Also when it comes to interiors once more they will say this new glc ( which is a higher trim level and not the standard one) has a wow factor but the BMW build quality is a bit better. Once you play with colours inside and configure the colour ways and add optional this and that you can make a alright build quality seem great . Perceived quality is the way things are now. No one talks about the exterior of the glc and it’s side view which is really not great. The x3 even as old as it is is still the leader. However if there was no x3 then this glc is better than a Q5 most definitely .
Definitely would get this one if I could afford one.
Now I’m torn between SUV or sedan since both have amazing interior
@@titaniumspecial4207 I’m eyeing the GLC coupe has a bit of both; the height and the shape 😄
I still think the new 2023 BMW iX1 is a better vehicle....and better looking too. Not sure about the melted butter look of the Merc. Nice review too....
How much is this car
I remember the old GLC very well.....Run by a bloke called Ken Livingstone I believe. 🤣🤣🤣
It's indeed a beautiful car, and its interior is one of the best, including the looks. However, I still prefer saloons and estates, they're just better for the planet!
LOVE IT😍😍
New evoque vs new GLC?
OK the GLC is COMPACT not mid size it's crazy that so many call this Mid Size, the Mercedes GLE is midsize. 3:18 because it's a compact SUV.
I like this host, keep it up
don't know about the front. Rear looks awesome like the GLE
In the early 80s Canada had the Mazda GLC (Great Little Car)!
