    all the little complaints about the transmission, like you said it's what you signed up for. that's how dual clutch transmissions react at very low speeds. they are not a traditional automatic.

    @4:45 If such a vehicle existed, the GLA 45 would be better matched against an XV Crosstrek STi. The A45 is a more direct competitor physically to the regular STi.

    Pretty cool twist to let it chase the Subie offroad. But I see it as too luxe of a car to really want to take it off a smooth surface. I have to ask though -- what's a better hot hatch? Are we only quibbling because the ride height is a little lifted compared to the A45? The way it looks in-person and drives, I wouldn't call it an SUV by any stretch.

    Looks hard. Would have thought it would have been soft being more of an suv.

    what advantage would the WRX have over the gla anyway the Subaru would be the same hight for dirt roads ..might even be lower I don't get it

      Old comment I know, I’d say the locking differentials and better AWD system would be the only real advantage over the AMG.

    What is the ground clearance? Would it be drivable in the Canadian winter?

    Look at the space for the Parallel parking maneuver, you could fit a jumbo jet in there. Lets see how well that function does in London, where after you've parked, it's nigh impossible to slip a credit card between your car, and those fore and aft!

      utubecomment21 I think it was the camera angle that blew it out of proportion, but yes it hardly looked like a challenge

      utubecomment21 good point . it does tight spaces but only if the ground is flat. Doesn't do slopes !

    The styling is crap. They seem to have gone the Hyundai route and overdesigned the car. Somewhere under all those stickers is a nice car.
    Also, the driver's door sounded tinny when he closed it from the inside and sounded ok when he closed it from the outside.

    • @JerinP

      I think those stickers were only on the "Edition One" special models in certain markets like Austailia. I had a clean 2015 without any stickers or canards. That's pretty much all that's offered in the US.

    Go-Faster-Stripes straight from the 1980's look terrible. Mercedes must think Aussies have no taste whatsoever.
