@@arrogen2831 it's ok, it's unreasonable to expect you to know every exact model of every car company, but honestly, why would Mercedes release a sedan in America, but not in Europe? Do you know how America views sedans? 🤣
I bought this 2 months ago with the optional vision package (360 degree camera + multi beam headlights). I chose the GLA35 over the A35 because: - backseat headroom and legroom - I have tall friends and tall family - panamericana grill - slightly higher ground clearance - exactly what Jakub said, I always scrapped my old hatchback’s front bottom when entering. I loved the A35, it handled better and had little pops and bangs which the GLA35 doesn’t In short, if you need better legroom and you need slightly better off-road capability, go GLA35 like me. Otherwise the A35 is cheaper and much more fun
I brought subcompact CUV because of that. I prefer hatchbacks but many ramps around my town aren't designed for a sedan because majority vehicles here are body on frame MPV so front bumpers scrapped a lot if not careful.
Agreed. I had the A35 amd loved it, but didn’t get any real extras and I really wanted to active dampers and a few other o-irons like Sirius and nav. (Was told i could download it off the app, but cannot). Traded it in and now have a the g;a45 with those options. Love this lil beast.
@@e70_x5_guy4 currently she’s driving a 2017 glc it’s pretty good has all the driving modes, infotainment lacking though but that’s really all of my complaints, road noise is super low
@@e70_x5_guy4 Lol why? I just can't compare anything because you didn't tell me which Mercedes they should buy and which Land Rover they're drive right now 😂
Nah the old GLA looked like the old A-Class and the old A-Class looked really ugly. This looks like the new A-class which looks the better than the old A class
I expected much better comments. I work at a dealership. The old A-Class was horrible to get in and out of. The GLA was really no differene just a little bit higher but the doors were still to small so I always had to duck. I don't know about the new GLA but I expect it to be much more family friendly.
Except for the cheap plastic-y interior, firm seats, outdated infotainment and so-so handling. I wouldn’t call a GLA45 a hot hatch by any stretch of the imagination. I don’t know why anyone would get that over the Golf R, oh wait I know. It’s the Mercedes badge on the front.
@@effa114 Yes, I have driven one and honestly didn’t see the fuss. Its fun in a straight line and the exhaust is nice but if I just want a fast straight line car for that money I’d get a Challenger SRT. If I wanted a fun ‘crossover hatchback thing’ for the price I’d get a Porsche Macan GTS. But I just got a Golf R and spent the money I saved on making it a lot faster than a GLA45. And I know because I absolutely destroyed a GLA45 this summer on the track.
@@effa114 Yeah, we all have our own tastes in cars. Even used it's not what I would go for, I could get a used Audi RS5, a C63, or an M2. Idk, for that much money, I expect a certain comfort and refinement from a car. The GLA45 does not offer that. The car I was driving had excessive wind noise going down the highway. But then again, everyone has their own priorities when buying cars.
This category of 300hp small suv's is now filled with alot of choices, SQ2, X2 35I, TROC R, JCW Countryman, etc nice time to be driver. Great stuff guys.
3:53 jakub its dual-singles not single-duals. when you say single duals you mean its only on one side but two so you should say dual-singles so its one on each end.
You have to remember that the main driving force for the SUV craze right now is so “less limber” people can get in and out of the vehicle easier (excluding the true utility and kid haulers)
I'm looking for something like this, but I think I'd go for the A45. I don't need anything that's too big, but I want something that's fun and relatively loud and sporty, but I'm worried the suspension will be too harsh for my bad back. Any suggestions? For the price I'm thinking a CPO S6/S7 and just slapping an exhaust on it.
I commented before about you two having the best acceleration faces. Now I look forward to seeing that than the vehicles. As always great review, THANKS GUYS!
7:45 Jakub, didn't you post on your insta story that you bought a whole bunch of Lightning to USB-C cables? maybe he just uses them in the house idk and that adapter is a Mercedes one???? What is this malarky??
You two produce the best reviews, cos you each come at things from different angles, the best car reviews on youtube. (my humble opinion). P.S. for us dog fans can you include the Rex test on all cars not just wagons.
Honestly its like a Volkswagen that has all the bells and whistles. It looks like a cross between a Golf and a Alltrack Sportwagon, especially on the inside. The hard seats, buttons and interior trim.
Dope content. Can you guys get a cheap android phone for the sake of testing android auto on these cars? Really enjoyed hearing about the differences between that and apple car play in different cars.
Absolutely love how you review the cars because that’s exactly how i got oddballs on my cars once in a while And i know and ear how it’s gonna be like👏🏻
I get into a friend's new car. I immediately say - Will it rewind satellite radio? Will it fit a small cup of coffee? Box test! Visor test! Horsepower and torque?! Send it into cliche corner! They are very puzzled. Then I show them a Straight Pipes video and they are less concerned about me.
@@sneekyturbo_AMG I mean....it feels like someone cares when they feel the need to post about something being cheap junk. You can not like it or prefer the hand made AMG engine but I hardly consider this vehicle cheap junk.
@@piersoncomposer haha well why the hell do you care if I call it cheap junk? Do you own one? It's my opinion. Go buy one then if you love it so much. Or go buy a 6 figure mercedes. I could really care less lol
I know you guys do new cars but just for the hell of it can you do 1980s volvo 240 turbo? Its not super fast but its fun when you get into it. Sleeper af doesn't hurt anything either
Im in the US and ordered the A35 sedan - the plastic cladding really lost it for me and the A35 sedan is way faster and has better handling. Would like to see you guys review it someday!
Is this built by Nissan in Mexico like the GLB? That front wheel spin on launch. Better bookmark the Continental website, you’ll be shopping there often.
Is this a hot hatch or a hot SUV or is it even hot at all?
Lukr warm
It is a cheap soccer mom cuv with no relation to amg heritage whatsoever
Doesn't matter, for sure it's one of the Ugliest Mercedez recently Made
absolutely don‘t like its styling 😬
Hot SUV
Can you believe they they started out from nothing and now are my favorite car review channel
We can't even believe it
But everyone starts from nothing lol
The Universe started out from nothing too. Coincidence?...I think not. Great video and review as always guys.
Yes
Just got my start at the bottom, (writing for a car website), hopefully in a few years I’ll be here 💪🏼
Looks like a cross between a Toyota Matrix and Buick Encore with some Mercedes thrown in
It looks like a Subaru.
When I first saw it, I thought they fed a Ford Escape a jellybean
Totally an Encore
Toyota matrix's are bulletproof this would prolly be done after 200k max
For the bargain price of just under $47,500 US with no options... and you WILL want options.
From certain angles it reminded me of a Pontiac Vibe 🤣
Agreed
Honestly, not a bad thing in my opinion... just kinda sucks for Benz

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the videographer who tried to replicate the robot shots with his iPhone
I honestly like Mercedes new design language. Most be one of the few.
Oh wow, compared to the old one, it actually looks like a small SUV now hahahaha
Yeah and I don’t like it,
Prefer older model
As it should. The GLB was introduced and then ppl buying cars didn’t want the wagon hatch style of the old gla. It’s an SUV it should look like one
