RafaCreeper 72 I am really glad that you managed your way out of the snow... I'm confident it has it's benefits like in your situation.. but to me or most people I think would opt not to take their 4x4 off road just for entertaining. to me I prefer to rent a car for that and keep my car clean and sound.
I completely disagree with Mat, and I watched almost all of his reviews, and I always disliked and disagreed with him on this matter, he always says trust me you don't need the 4WD version of this car, for all the cars. You all trust me I need 4WD, and a good one, may not be for off roading though, but for some snowy and steep uphills definitely, that's even why I'm watching reviews of these cars and/or SUV's that are available in 4WD.
Although I'm a BMW fan, the interior in the X3 looks crappy. IMO, the best one is the GLC, considering looks and performance. RR Evoque feels kinda outdated..
Test drove all 3 cars. X3 for comfort and handling Glc for looks only, as to noisy in side cabin with no power and crapy gear shift position. Evoque for Looks, comfort and handling at a better price then the other 2 cars
I bought the BMW X3, 20 D with sports package and I just love it, drives beautiful and sports seats super comfortable. I know you day the interior is outdated but I think it has classic style
I'm glad Mercedes is making comfortable cars again. I really don't like the trend of manufacturers going for ridiculously firm suspension on luxury/family cars which are supposed to waft down the motorway.
Hi Mat, The videos are going great, but the colour balance is a bit off. I feel it's lacking colour and there is too much grey. Thanks for the videos!! Take it easy
I love all 3, but the boot is definitely a LOT smaller on the Evoque than the other two. (My mom has an Evoque, and it _is_ a great car to drive, but it's just that limited cargo space that kills it for me.) I drove an X3 for 3 years, and while those criticisms are probably fair, I *LOVED* it. Such a classy ride. Maybe not flashy, but really nice to drive. _Today,_ I'd probably choose the Benz with a Diesel engine (coming soon in the U.S., they say) for nice MPG. (TBH I _really_ want an F-Pace or Discovery Sport!) Looking in this segment for a nice new one next year.
You're probably right. Evoque seems decent to me, but BMW is better I'm sure. Like I said, I really loved my BMW. It was a dream come true for me to own that car.
Hey Matt... You review cars in the best way possible.Your reviews actually help in making decisions. It would be great to meet you some day and gain some knowledge! Wish you all the best. Regards Aniket.
+xSteviee13_ no it's not. But sometimes it's tough to match like for like as we rely on manufacturers to send the cars they have available on the days the track is available and we are available... These things are always a compromise.
Hi Matt I get really annoyed by comments that most SUV drivers don’t go off-road. To me the reason for buying one is to drive through muddy fields and over ruts. I’d like to see how all these cars get on in these circumstances
My view of the Merc? In my best Python accent--"I'm not dead yet!" Yeh, give me the bimmer. I still have a pulse and still enjoy the act of driving. Test drove the Merc, and I nearly fell asleep.
Very nice video, i would like to see another comparison like this about their bigger brothers, im talkking about the Range Rover Sport, BMW x5, mercedes gle, porsche cayenne and other cars of this level
The GLC and most non performance Mercedes in general are meant to remove stress from driving. I have a GTR for the crazy stuff, a convertible for the summer and a Mercedes for everything else. If I had one choice as a long daily driver it is difficult to fault the Mercedes approach.
@@user-ip5fm3ck4p no I'm gonna go check Edmund's consumer reviews man lmao I want something that's got power luxury and comfort Audi and Mercedes. Looked into Infiniti and alfa but idk also looking around 15k-22k
@@APE029 right behind you. I'm afraid to purchase without a warranty so I'm hoping to get one under 50k miles for 26. Out of my budget a little...I should be 15-22k but I have a long commute so I deserve it! That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 😊
@@user-ip5fm3ck4p I know that's right hell we spend a lot of time in our vehicles might as well enjoy it.. make sure to check the years and what's new.. looking into q5 3.0t (preferably) 2013 and up because of the small face lift and LEDs standard.. a 2015 C300 (really wanting a c400) I'd like to know how these 4cylinder turbos hold up and if they still need the injectors cleaned after so long
Syed Ibrahim Hasan you must be sure. the xc60 is a very great premium car, she can fight with all of this car. i have seen and been in the evoque, q5 and x3 and i prefer xc60. but i don't know the glc and f-pace.
The X3 can't hold a candle to the RR & the GLC. These 2 are quite different cars too tho and appeal to a different demograph so for me the only possible winner is GLC. Thats why I traded in my Lexus for one. The GLC is a superb car but also has that 3 pointed star to back it up.
The Evoque is the best looking car, 4 years after I got my coupe people still stop me to ask questions about it. Btw amazing on the snow. We have lots of that here in Canada and the car performs amazing. I love the car and it drives amazing. The sport mode makes it a lot of fun to drive on the highway and still looks and performs like the first day I got it. Range Rover did a great job here specially with the design and fuel economy.
Well i'm BMW fan and i need to say this test was good i agree for Merc well because it's brand new hope you will do again test when come out new X3 next year
that 203 hp engine from merc it is very accleimed by a lot of jurnalists...the car can also be set in sport and sport + and can be fitted with dynamic body control witch upgrades the suspensions with air makeing the car stick on the ground. But for me sicne im 22, ill choose bmw anyday
glc is ok but seats are hard and unforgiving . After 2hours you know by the pain in your butt. I went for the BMW2LT M SPORT ITs comfortable fairly quick and in ecco mode gets good MPG. I drove it to Bulgaria and back and it crunches miles like its nothing. Over all I think i made right choice. Looks wise the GLC looks nice but the BMW in white still looks good. The evoke slow ,rattles, small inside and you might as well buy the older one as nothing much has changed. By the way first job on BMW was change those god awful run flat tyres. Makes a world of difference.
Really enjoying your videos Mat although unsure why this one is "unlisted" on youtube. I'm actually tossing up between the w205 C class and the GLC. Previously I owned a w204 C250 CDI with the OM651 engine (pretty sure it's the same as the current gen diesel but mine didn't have the newer gearbox) so am trying to determine if it's worth going SUV rather than sedan.
merc's screen looks out of place and that system is awkward to use due to a swivel wheel and touch pad on top of it, feels very complicated specially when you're driving
Shouldn't the price of the Evoque be cheaper than the others considering it's a British based car and that there shouldn't be import taxes on them? I'M JUST ASKING.
hey mat a BMW X3 is not a bad car you only like the glc that's all u don't give about the other 2 I'm getting I bmw and it's not fill and dated it's an amazing car
" SUV owners never take their cars off-road " is most accurate statement in the car industry. Good luck in your new channel
Depends where you live. Not in UK perhaps but here in Australia you go off-road.
Here in the US I got stuck in the snow but fortunately I had 4wd

As an all round package the Glc is the pick for me. The best interior. Best ride quality I just like the styling seems very classy
The RR Evoque is in the X1 , GLA , Q3 size class , for this you should get the LR Discovery sport or the LR Freelander. The boot race was funny.
Although I'm a BMW fan, the interior in the X3 looks crappy. IMO, the best one is the GLC, considering looks and performance. RR Evoque feels kinda outdated..
Pls wait for all new X3, no one can beat it, trust me
Manuepolis it's the oldest
Yeah feel the same they did a pretty bad job with this one in my opinion, even tho I love literally ever Beamer
although the back is REALLY sexy here
Paul T morning
Test drove all 3 cars.
X3 for comfort and handling
Glc for looks only, as to noisy in side cabin with no power and crapy gear shift position.
Evoque for Looks, comfort and handling at a better price then the other 2 cars
I bought the BMW X3, 20 D with sports package and I just love it, drives beautiful and sports seats super comfortable. I know you day the interior is outdated but I think it has classic style
The X3 rear lights arrangement, take me back to original X5 16 years ago. Doesn't change a little bit.
I'm glad Mercedes is making comfortable cars again. I really don't like the trend of manufacturers going for ridiculously firm suspension on luxury/family cars which are supposed to waft down the motorway.
+Oscar Lee I agree, manufacturers have got to focus on the car type, and customer that most likely buys it.
Thanks for giving me so many reasons to consider the GLC! I've always been inclined towards it and your video reinforced my opinion.
Exterior - Range Rover Evoque
Interior - Mercedes Benz GLC
Multimedia - BMW X3
Doodie Berry so true.
Range rover is so ugly lol
I see clearly that the RR is the best in everything from style to cost to performance.
Hi Mat,
The videos are going great, but the colour balance is a bit off.
I feel it's lacking colour and there is too much grey.
Thanks for the videos!!
Take it easy
Yeah......slightly bleached effect. I prefer a natural warmer tone.
That's just England's grey weather ;-)
+Big Red ha...good job I live in the south where we get the best of the Uk weather.
Ricco123tube I'm from Wales, you have it good :P
+Big Red Wales is beautiful though.

You're probably right. Evoque seems decent to me, but BMW is better I'm sure. Like I said, I really loved my BMW. It was a dream come true for me to own that car.
The GLC is the best looking, best built, most modern car here, but it is probably most expensive.
Hey Matt...

It would be great to meet you some day and gain some knowledge! Wish you all the best.

Mercedes do the best looking interiors
+Adam Chapman
Yeah, with all that tacky cheap glossy black console and the stand out(why?) aluminum vents...
The BMW interiors look bland but once you actually sit in one, it just feels the best and driver oriented.
yea the BMW makes the best interiors
fair enough i guess it depends what car\model you get
Adam Chapman The BMW interiors are fairly similar, the 5 series one is the most outdated and bland. The newer models have very nice design
Mercedes-1 place
bmw second-2
range rover-3
BMW - 1st
Range Rover- 2nd
Mercedes- 3rd
***** shut up David you cant even make it to an election lmao
Hahahahaha Nice!
+Bernie Sanders perfect choice
agree, the evoque looks like shit.
I don't like BMW X3 for one thing, the ride is so bumpy. For a SUV, I want a comfortable ride. Mercedes GLC is my favorite
me to! merceds-benz is the best!
The Range Rover evoque doesn't not seem to be on the same equipment level as the other 2
+xSteviee13_ no it's not. But sometimes it's tough to match like for like as we rely on manufacturers to send the cars they have available on the days the track is available and we are available... These things are always a compromise.

Hi Matt
I get really annoyed by comments that most SUV drivers don’t go off-road. To me the reason for buying one is to drive through muddy fields and over ruts. I’d like to see how all these cars get on in these circumstances
Great review! Could you please do another about the A5, 4 Series and C Coupe?
And the new jag xe
Jonathan Adrian That's not a coupe.
Plus perhaps the Infinit Q50 coupe!
Way better Drag racing at 4:48 than the Top Gear youtube chanel has been hosting recently.
4:38 yes. The most important feature of any car
This review helped me. I was really torn between Evoque and GLC. This helped me solidify my observations and final decision. Thank you.
so you went with the bimmer, got it
The boot race should become standard in all comparison tests. On to the horn?
My view of the Merc? In my best Python accent--"I'm not dead yet!" Yeh, give me the bimmer. I still have a pulse and still enjoy the act of driving. Test drove the Merc, and I nearly fell asleep.
I LOVE BMW but recently I’ve fallin in love with the GLC
Very nice video, i would like to see another comparison like this about their bigger brothers, im talkking about the Range Rover Sport, BMW x5, mercedes gle, porsche cayenne and other cars of this level
Had a BMW X3..no,boring car with no great sell on value,got an Q5 now,love it and it’s only lost £1k in 18 months on trade in.
Discovery Sport might have been more appropriate? Or a Q5 (I know it's old and dull)? Don't see many families with an Evoque.
Love the GLC but please could you make a review of the Mercedes GLA and a group test of the GLA with it's rivals. ( e.g BMW X1 Audi Q3)
The GLC and most non performance Mercedes in general are meant to remove stress from driving. I have a GTR for the crazy stuff, a convertible for the summer and a Mercedes for everything else. If I had one choice as a long daily driver it is difficult to fault the Mercedes approach.
Thanks I’ve always needed to put 2L bottles in my front door ..
As a glc owner, no regret so far
Any now? It's a little out of my budget but it seems like it's the complete package

The Mercedes is without doubt the best looking here. Although I'm still confused between the X3 and the GLC.
I wish the mercedes look more sporty like the RR. I don't like how the M looks. very plain jane
For a minivan
Man your reviews are killer! Keep up the great work .. you and the team.
3 of my favourite cars that I want
You're a superb car reviewer... Looks like the GLC for me come October...
How is your GLC going so far?
The X3 can't hold a candle to the RR & the GLC. These 2 are quite different cars too tho and appeal to a different demograph so for me the only possible winner is GLC. Thats why I traded in my Lexus for one. The GLC is a superb car but also has that 3 pointed star to back it up.
Love the new channel, videos are great! Looking forward to see cheaper and city cars though
The Range Rover Evoque in zanzibar metallic is badass with shadow chrome wheels, it is better off road
Obviously the Evoque has the best offroading capabilities.
Why not include the Audi Q5? It's still great despite it's age.
Very few reviews if any on GLC 350d, why?.
Your reviews are detailed & informative.
I'll get a normal car and an old MX-5 for the price difference. Maybe I'll be able to squeeze in a nice holiday as well.
Boot race? Right ok. That's a practical and relevant test.
GLC is definitely the best. Overall champ.
X3 looks, is noisy but handles well
Evoque, not too sure what's special. Too small, too predictable.
I would like the merc interior, with the bmw running gear and satnav.
The Evoque is the best looking car, 4 years after I got my coupe people still stop me to ask questions about it. Btw amazing on the snow.

keren om ane suka dah
I think these are good brands to compare but these models I wouldn’t go for. I would compare Range Rover , BMW X5 and Mercedes gle
I guess I will wait for the all new BMW X3 next year and see how it compares with the GLC.
The new x3 looks so much better. Gettin those X1 vibes. 😅
I’m here in 2019 and to see how much better cars look now except the glc it looked good back then
Well i'm BMW fan and i need to say this test was good i agree for Merc well because it's brand new hope you will do again test when come out new X3 next year
Your website service is quite good :) loving the nice offers

you could do a video comparing Evoque 4WD vs FWD, proving that for most people, FWD version will be fine.
Mat use a Mercedes GLC petrol engine because the RR is petrol and also the BMW
Well, great, Mat, you are a bit of a genius. But, except suvs, there are other classes of vehicles too. I mean, such as focus vs golf vs astra k ...
That will come soon
That will come soon
+carwow okay, I will look forward
Are you testing the Focus RS and Porsche 991.2?
Really love the back end of bmws X range
True. Merz GLC is family friendly.
Much love bra, u still my number one Reviewer outer there.
and Y would U compare a AMG to the basic pure evoque and not the dynamic ?
Land rover is the mother of all designs. I love it
true
merc's screen looks out of place and that system is awkward to use due to a swivel wheel and touch pad on top of it, feels very complicated specially when you're driving
True dat. I drive a C Class. Love the car. Hate the COMMAND system interface. Too many clicks to get to any function
Don't tell me what I need... I live in Minnesota where it snows, a lot, all the time. I do need four wheel drive!!
Which is more reliable
I always thought Mercedes SUVs were hideous... until the GLC. Damn does this car look amazing.
How about reviews on hatchbacks
Why isn't Audi Q5 in the comparison ?
+manikmeet singh becuase it's not.
+carwow that's really rude to say
+Caroline Brokas why is it they're telling the truth 😂
great cars
Hello Carwow. Why some of videos are out of list like Mini?
you said compact premium suv but these cars are in mid-size suv class, are they not?
MB GLC is the best, hands down !
Range rover is definitly the best !
Excuse me but in all your reviews i see that you are kind with some brands and hard on others don't you think?
amazing videos... i whatch them whole time....
Im a Merc fan but i like BMW exterior
Will you review the Range Rover sport or Range Rover? The best in it's class those are!
How do they compare with Porsche Mecan S?
Tailgate competition is really funny!
Shouldn't the price of the Evoque be cheaper than the others considering it's a British based car and that there shouldn't be import taxes on them? I'M JUST ASKING.
hey mat a BMW X3 is not a bad car you only like the glc that's all u don't give about the other 2 I'm getting I bmw and it's not fill and dated it's an amazing car
I own an GLC an can agree to the final result :-) in the preview
Please do the x5
range rover is best
Bit surprised that the Evoque is included in this review. Seems to me that the Audi or even the Macan are closer to the Merc and BM markets.
i have the x3 and i love it but i might want to change for the evoque or glc what do you guys recomend since im pretty happy with it
No need except you want an extra car
GLC definetly
Again another re-upload..And I would think that a Audi Q5 would be a better replacement for the evoque.
+Damayn new Q5 just months away. So no point doing the old one. And it's not a re-upload. It was just unlisted - now it's public.
The most expensive one wins in 90% of this kind of videos; as it should be... So, not surprised...
