Great comparison as usual. Tough choice for me. As it stands the X3 would be my choice bc the Mercedes is due for a replacement. I also prefer the BMW driving dynamics, and overall styling.
I drive a 2022 GLC300 and my wife drives a 2022 BMWX3. Like you Guys described so well they are very different but both excellent vehicles. Her X3 out handles and out performs my GLC but my GLC rides so smooth and has more technology. Keep up the great work.
Your reviews are always good I want to thank you for your review on the Audi R8 Spyder in 2017 which made me make up my mind to get one I'm thinking about an SUV now as a second car this review will help me make up my mind I like the BMW X3 thanks so much
I just bought a 2021 GLC 300 and it is a beautiful vehicle with an amazingly smooth ride and luxurious interior. I traded in my BMW X3 which always had a very hard ride. At this point in life, I am more concerned with not feeling every bump in the road.
I am ONLY interested in a deal, regardless of the product. It comes down to ‘money in, money out’. I think that they are both fine examples of entry level German engineered SUVs. Besides, most people can’t tell one model year to the next. So its not which is cheaper, but rather which one can one get a sweet enough...‘deal’ on. Thanks for the video.
I’m 100% interested in the deal. Ironically I like the look of the GLC on the outside, but like the interior of the X3 more. Backseat space is super important to me for rear facing child seats and trunk space. Because of the deal factor, I’ll most likely go with the GLC. When will the new revamped models be hitting dealership lots? Any advice on best time of year/strategy to get an older model to score a better deal?
Both are great SUVs. I leased a 2018 GLC300 and loved it. I turned it in after the lease expired because I wouldn’t be able to afford the maintenance on it.

I just got a 2021 X3 and love it. The drive is great and the steering is responsive with a slight stiffness to the suspension but nothing to get upset over. Love the interior and the iDrive system is easy to use. My only gripe so far is I find the sound system lackluster. My wife has a 2020 GLB and we both love the MB lineups - it just worked out as a better deal to get the X3. Great reviews and thanks for your unbiased inputs.
@@doomsday9973 Well, I'd say it would depend on what kind of cargo you expect to have. But, to be honest, since it's just my wife and I and I would expect you will have more than I would, I would say it may possibly be a challenge, especially if folding the rear seats down isn't an option. The X5 may be the next option up if you want to compare CF specs on the cargo areas.
Wrong channel. UA-cam reviewers of new cars almost never talk about this point because so much can be argued about it. You can always watch Scotty Kilmer for this information and you'll always stick to Toyota after he freaks you out.
I can't speak to the current model, but I own a 2017 Mercedes GLC COUPE, which I purchased new in April 2017. I still love nearly everything about it. It is beautiful (and while I know there are changes in the newer models, they honestly don't look that different to me). The performance is good, it is roomy, and it has been incredibly reliable. Some folks complain that there is less cargo space in the Coupe, but think space is more than sufficient. I say all of this as a Mercedes loyalist; this is my fourth new Mercedes. This is my favorite of the all, and I plan to keep it forever! I would imagine the newer version is just as wonderful or better, if that is even possible. #MercedesGLC
I got the chance to drive both a glc and x3, and I would for sure go with Mercedes. interior feels and looks more luxurious, and I prefer the star rather then a pig nose grill
Coming from an architecture background, i appreciate the time it takes for designers to resolve curvilinear and smooth surfaces into a cohesive design that has a classy appeal. In that regard, just on design and aesthetics, the GLC is just that much special, especially the interior. Saving up for one.
As another architectural designer, I was sold by the design of the GLC300 and purchased a 2021 about a month ago. The interior is hands down one of the most cohesively executed cockpits. The attention to symmetry in the center console, the use of real buttons for everyday functions and the rich colors and style for the infotainment graphics are stunning. I could go on and on, but I want to get back in and drive it again. By the way, Andrea, you have an amazing sense of style and fashion!
@@GregorianChance Wow, I love your feedback and I couldn't agree more, the GLC offers a beautiful interior. Hard to believe a new one is coming, there is nothing wrong with this one. Thank you very much for your kind words about my style and fashion. :)
I own a 2019 GLC 300 which i got new and so far i had a few item replaced under warranty. But as for the ride it's ver comfortable as I did a road trip in it where i drove for 12hrs straight with only few stops and the seat didn't feel uncomfortable througout the whole trip. I'm looking forward to the new fully refresh 2022 GLC to change as i hear it will be much more spacious.
@@Shafiqhaddad I had the following items change: 1) The passenger window motor replaced as it was making some noise. 2) My Breaks replaced due to making noise when stopping.
After owning a 2011 550i with huge thirst for oil and 2007 MB E320 with 200K miles (no oil usage whatsoever), our choice was easy: 2022 MB GLC ! The equipment level, the ride comfort and style that ages more gracefully, Mercedes was in competition with Porsche rather than BMW.
Compared to the x3, X1 has more leg rooms front and back, made in Germany vs USA, much more reliable according to Consumer report, better fuel economy and 10% lighter. Compared to the GLC, the trunk space of GLC is just tiny compared to even X1. If you are in the market for a compact SUV, I assume leg rooms and trunk specs are top priority. So to me, it’s a no brainer between the three.
Base GLC offers Leatherette while BMW offers leather & adding leather for GLC will be another $2,000. So the starting price are more or less than same. What cost a lot are the safety packages & you will need to add the premium package before getting the added peace of mind. But both are great cars and it's only a matter of preference.
Changing my 2015 C class for next new GLC coming at the end of the year. It’s all about my real need and that’s ground clearance. C class has 3.8 inc, while GLC 5.9. And if I choose off road package will rise it 2 inches more. My way to work demands it.
Great comparison video. Always enjoy you two together. My wife has owned 2 X3 and now owns a Macan, so she definitely prefers the sportier driving vehicles. However, the interiors of the Mercs we have test driven in the last 10 years or so have been a step above the BMW. She and I make do with whatever infotainment a car has if we like the car on balance, but the BMW systems have proven easy to use while driving after a bit of a learning curve.
Nice comparison from both of You! Thank you Zack & Andrea! It truly felt like when I watched the video clips that Andrea felt and sat more comfortably in Mercedes than BMW. She felt so comfortable in Mercedes that she took her heels off, meanwhile when you drove the BMW, you seemed at least your body language spoke a "tension" your arms, your legs way too closed meanwhile in the Mercedes your body spoke an extreme level of comfort. Interesting, because so this means that Mercedes even tho its german as well, levelling out BMW. will Mercedes take on BMW soon?
Between those two, maybe the GLC. Looks nicer in and out. In this segment I've ended up with the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. It has some relevant arguments over its competitors, Maybe the two most important being engine and handling.
I own a 2020 X3 M40i. I like it but don't like its brakes, too touchy and hard to modulate. It stops great but you gotta learn to handle its quirky feeling. I also test drove a 2021 MB AMG GLC 43 which is also a great car but not as fast as the M40i which is a lot sportier. The X3 model line has small interior control buttons which are not too friendly and practical. I found the GLC have a better interior design and controls. As there were not enough worthy changes and improvements on the 2022 models I will test the upcoming 2023 AMG GLC model when it gets released later this year and if it is better and I do like it then adios X3 and hello GLC. Only time will tell. The new 2023 GLC line is going to get a nicer and improved dashboard and controls, much nicer than the 2022 models. Bottom line .... these two models are definitely not perfect cars but they are the best In their class. FYI..... a big plus for BMW over MB .....BMW provides the following free services for the first 3 years: "Engine oil and filter service and replacement of air and micro filters." Mercedes Benz is a cheap and unfriendly company cause they DO NOT match any of the much better and free BMW service plans. Cheap Mercedes Benz must change their poor policy and start matching BMW's friendlier plan. But I will not hold my breath as MB is notorious for being difficult and a very cheap company. You owe it to yourself to check and test drive these two models and then decide which one touches your heart. FYI....there are many sneaky, tricky and unscrupulous dealers who are selling these models at over MSRP due to the difficult auto market conditions. When I found out about this despicable greed from several local dealers I told them to go to where the sun never shines. Just be patient as the market will get better and stabilize soon. Another personal observation....I like how the MB GLC "Coupe" looks over the same standard non-Coupe SUV model.....but there 2 features that I do not like at all, the Coupe costs $6,600 more and also it is much smaller in the rear and overall interior capacity because of the slanted rear of this model.....so it is no go for me. BMW is also at fault here for the same reasons, their X4 is identical to the X3 except that it is the coupe model. The X4 is also a lot more expensive than the X3, $4,600 more, and has smaller interior space. If you disregard the looks then these 2 are the same model car. The coupes look nicer but are not smart buys at all.
I'm sure there are people who've had no issues at all with owning either of these vehicles. Not every high end European luxury car is an endless money pit as you seem to claim.
I have never owned a Mercedes before. My family has owned a couple of BMWs (E36, E46 and E90), I have no faith in their reliability and dealer after sales service anymore. In comparison, Audi is the most reliable premium brand we have owned (B5 and B6 A4, 8P A3). So if I have to choose between these 2, I will definitely go with the GLC. Otherwise, Q5 and Macan would be far in front of both of them.
The BMW reliability is always a big question mark. I believe the 2021 X3 already has 6 different recalls put out! BMW makes great engines that provide dynamic driving experiences but they need to sort out their reliability and build quality. BMW has always been notoriously bad and they seems to be trending downwards. They will soon be competing with Landrover for least reliable vehicles.
Yes, totally different class, it's tough to compare. Although the fit and finish of the interior in the Sorento is pretty awesome. It just doesn't compare drive wise and I found the Sorento with the 2.5L turbo ran out of steam when passing on the highway. I would compare the Sorento to the new Outlander, both are excellent 7 seaters in a pinch and both interiors are very nice. I feel the Outlander has more precise steering and a quieter cabin, but both are good.
GLC all the way since they upgraded to the new infotainment system.. to achieve the same style, quality and ride as the GLC you have to pay more in X3.. this is true at the lower to mid spectrum the range.. they are pretty comparable in my view if you are comparing the top spec models..
I really love the mercedes. It's such a beautiful car, however I've been researching and seeing so many of these breaking down. What's your opinion on reliability ?
well, I would say they’re not that bad, acceptable is something I would use, but remember you need to spend time and money to maintain them, they do not tolerate lack of maintenance as some Japanese brand did. And they use complex design means if anything breaks, they can cause a fortune to repair. It will cost less if you are into cars, knows a great mechanic and get parts by yourself instead of dealers
the x3 you are showing has Idrive 6.....so..no android auto and only have Carplay...it is the X3 with ID7 that has Android Auto. Also the 2021 X3 has Live cockpit proffessional...the one you are showing doesn't.
FYI ... the Mercedes 2023 GLC 300 4MATTIC SUV has been increased in price by $3,350.00 over the 2022 model. I think Mercedes is getting very greedy and they will lose many new customers as they will refuse the pay this ridiculous increase and look for other SUV models.
Here in Russia we love the aggressive face and forms of cars. Mercedes is too uni-sex cards now and visually BMW is much more effective on the road. However, in part of the cabin, BMW is too obsolete in part of the interior design. IMHO
Ohhh You guys , still love the videos and the way you are soooo natural.

We are limited to what is available in the press fleet, but if we get them to review, we will certainly compare them.
Don't forget the x3 also has full out M version as well.
And a plug in electric hybrid as well. X3 30e. Not sure why they mention the GLC versions but neglected the X3 ones.
Between those two, maybe the GLC. Looks nicer in and out.
In this segment I've ended up with the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. It has some relevant arguments over its competitors, Maybe the two most important being engine and handling.
I own a 2020 X3 M40i. I like it but don't like its brakes, too touchy and hard to modulate. It stops great but you gotta learn to handle its quirky feeling.
I also test drove a 2021 MB AMG GLC 43 which is also a great car but not as fast as the M40i which is a lot sportier.
The X3 model line has small interior control buttons which are not too friendly and practical. I found the GLC have a better interior design and controls.

The only debate is which one will be in the dealership longer
I'm sure there are people who've had no issues at all with owning either of these vehicles. Not every high end European luxury car is an endless money pit as you seem to claim.

FYI ... the Mercedes 2023 GLC 300 4MATTIC SUV has been increased in price by $3,350.00 over the 2022 model.
I think Mercedes is getting very greedy and they will lose many new customers as they will refuse the pay this ridiculous increase and look for other SUV models.
Here in Russia we love the aggressive face and forms of cars. Mercedes is too uni-sex cards now and visually BMW is much more effective on the road. However, in part of the cabin, BMW is too obsolete in part of the interior design. IMHO
Glc anytime

Stop brining your wife to reviews. No added value and add unnecessary length
You do realize it's 2021 right? Women do buy cars, not sure if you noticed that
@ pauldebz Your comment is unnecessary and of no value! Learn some manners. Feel sorry for your wife!
