MERCEDES BENZ DEVIL 😈
I like cars with the speedometer for drivers only. I don't like my passengers looking at the odometer 😂 volvo for me
This is one of the best and most comprehensive comparisons I've ever watched. Danke!
Thanks 🙏
Shona?
I went with the Macan S in a Night Blue Metallic with a tan interior. Absolutely amazing! I didn't go for the larger wheels because I wanted more rubber on the tires for the NYC streets. My upgrades include heated seats and steering wheel, panoramic roof, lane change assist, Porsche entry and drive, 19' Macan sport wheels, upgraded Bose sound system and high gloss black window trim. Total: $68,510 USD. Test drove the others except for the Volvo and for me, nothing compared to the Macan S! I previously owned 2 Maserati Ghiblis.
As it should be for a Porsche. My wife and I were looking for a more luxury "family" type German crossover. The roads here in Maine are awful and I am also looking for some comfort too. I still have my sports package A4 for my toss around vehicle. I am an Audi guy so we went with the Q5 PP. Decent value for this level vehicle. $16,000 less. Enjoy your Macan!
Did you try Mercedes GLC? It has better interior and more space for seating in the back!

Compromise nothing. Just get the Porsche.
Your reviews are outrageously thorough and helpful. I’d been thinking of certain of these, but you helped to reveal deal-breakers. Thanks!!
thanks so much, please recommend us !
Great comprehensive review. I especially enjoyed the end summary at 3:16:40 of all 5 vehicles (very helpful and concise).
What is the color of BMW please tell.
Thank you for the time mark, Stephanie .. I was looking for that.. lol 🙋🏿♂️🤎💐
I regularly change my cars….and this year…the 3 I short listed..x3 M sport….GLC 220d amg….Macan entry…I had the Macan previously…and a x5….the toss up was between x3 and GLC…..ordered the GLC..await delivery end february
With reference to your comment that the Volvo XC60 has a “soft” steering, as an owner let me point out that the “stiffness” of the steering wheel can be adjusted to your liking through the car’s options from the center infotainment screen. I have mine set in the middle, not too soft yet not too stiff. You can also adjust other driving preferences in the same way and save them as a “custom drive mode”.
Great great video,thank a lot guys! Macan is beautiful.
Happy new year Thomas and team!
Big hangover. Big review. Big thanx.
🤗
First time watching your videos. Great in depth reviews. I like your laid back yet professional demeanor, makes the video a joy to watch.
Welcome 🙏
Outstanding video. I am cross shopping the X3, GLC and Q5. Having a hard time deciding but this video does provide a lot of very useful information. Keep up the great work.
Final choice ? :)
Recently purchased a base Macan over a more loaded GLC/X3. Haven't regretted it!
Best car ever
Hi , still happy?
Any problems ?
3:24:33?? It feels like triple length rather than full length. Liken all of them, was hard to see them all in a video, thank you for this detail review!
If i was a serious buyer this would be the perfect video, i skipped to the end for the overall summary
Only a German could make a 3 1/2 hour review of five vehicles. 😉😁 The x3 is the best by far. On my third. Just picked up the 2020.
I am getting the X3 M40i in 3 months.
@@adamhume3757 I’m thinking of getting the same car. How do you like it ?
@@winston9971 great car!
Never.
I just bought the XC60 T6 and I don't regret that. If I was to spend more money I would choose the Macan.
The very best review video of any of these vehicles in this class on all of the internet. Many thanks for your thorough work!
Such an in - depth review. Respect.
Very well done and informative video. I had a Q5 coming off lease and was looking at all of these SUVs EXCEPT the MB GLC (just hadn't thought about it). The Volvo held a top spot mostly due to aesthetics as all are so very close in specifications. After watching this, I went and drove the GLC, eventually finding the best deal on that car vs the others. I've had it for 3 weeks and am very happy. Thank you for a very comprehensive evaluation that enabled me to feel certain about my choice.
Thomas: Don't search for our very first videos, don't do it!
Me: Search youtube for "autogefuhl opel cascada".
Everyone had to start from somewhere, it's nice to be able to see this cannel's evolution over time.
I really appreciate all your reviews, this is one of the best UA-cam channels with car reviews.
Tom, you are amazing. Thank you for your thorough, intelligent, and relevant review! The bits where your personality shone through are my favorite, and I'd probably watch you talk about yarn or cement, too. ;)
Don't open the hatch!! Not Penny's boat!! hahaha
=))
My new favourite reviewer of all time! 👌🏼👍🏽 Subscribed.
Love the accent 😂👍
welcome !!
Will go now for the Volvo XC60 PHEV T8 R-design. Drove 200.000 in the 2015 model and had never one single problem. Comfortable, safe and very reliable.
Happy New Year. Thank you for video.
I would love to see a similar length review of the XC60 PHEV, with all assistance systems, mid trim level. I would predict 6-7 litres mixed cycle with it.
Your reviews are outrageously thorough and helpful. I’d been thinking of certain of these, but you helped to reveal deal-breakers. Thanks!!
😘🤩
Picking up my Macan GTS in Midnight Blue on Monday. Soooooooo excited. All loaded up!
Nice I got my Turbo yesterday in the same colour!
Were u happy with ur decision?
I'm leaning in that direction.
@@morrisdennis Yeah Midnight blue and the mamba green are the best colours... The gts is the sportiest but the turbo is the fastest
Hello Thomas,
Your comparison came at a wonderful time. My wife and I are planning to buy an SUV and this hit all the spots. My questions is this we’re looking at GLC 43, X3M, SQ5, XC60 w polestar upgrade, or the Macan S. Would you stil rank them the same or does going up to the 6cylinder change your thoughts.
Thanks again Thomas, your reviews are so enlightening and comprehensive!
thanks m8! Would do the same
Volvo XC60 and Mercedes glc for me 🏆
Thanks for the impressive review. Everyone has a top pick, but it’s just VOLVO for me. There’s some appeal with VOLVO XC60 that the rest do not have. The aesthetics is way superior than the rest. I still drive my 2015 T6 AWD 300 hp, and still amazes me even as simple as cornering. On winter driving, the sense of safety on the highway just never goes away on a Volvo. Forever Volvo fan.
Thanks and enjoy 😉
Yes I have had so many Volvos it hard not to go back. The GLC. Has a nice interior. But is it as reliable as Volvo. Porsche. To much to keep on the road. Audi is the same for years. BMW. Is great and sporty but not a fan of the interior
Hands down, Macan. Beautiful SUV.
But at those prices i would always go for a Cayman S - no brainer.
Happy new year!
Albert Bremner ha that’s what I just did. Cayman S now in the garage next to the 718 GTS, and the Q5 has been delegated out to the driveway. Fourth Porsche first Cayman very satisfying to drive. The right decision.
@@1ROCKY89 Kann Ich...die Bremse losen? *yanks your Cayman key"
Btw...just let wifey have full command of that Q5 you just forgot about
Do not get in trouble.
I just bought BMW X4 and its awesome!
Me too - 2022 X4 m40i :-)
So detailed and informative, thank you.
🙏🙏
Great review, one of the best reviews out there! 👌 My X3 will arrive June 1st, can’t wait! I’m here trying to get all the inside scoop before I get the car..🙏👌 / Victor (Stockholm, Sweden) 🇸🇪🇧🇷.
Cool good luck!
What is the color of BMW please tell.
I really enjoy these reviews.
Welcome!
i've driven the base model Macan and was in love with everything but the power... it costs way too much to be so slow ... you have to go to at least the macan s!
I agree, but then it's not a fair comp to the others. The Porsche can get expensive real fast for items you can get standard on others.
Great review Thomas. Keep up the good work.
Simply excellent review !
highly appreciated ! Updated version is here: ua-cam.com/video/fk5Gfh3Q-Ww/v-deo.html
Hello, must say that your comments and review are serious and helpful. To answer your question I went for GLC 350e with airmatic instead of GLE 500e. I don’t drive on autobahn so for me local roads with 40-100 km speed limit with 30km/day works better. GLC 350e is very nimble and has a sharp start, that is very helpful when entering bigger roads from side roads. Airmatic is working good and daily drive combines dirt road 2-3km with tarmac. When running on battery (circa 23km after 6h charge from 220V) car is very responsive, when driving on mud or snow the el drive is perfect. So after 10k km with the GLC I am happy with the decision. Only concern is how long will Airmatic last? Can you say something about maintenance of models from 2017 onward and overalls reliability? Keep posting 😀
Volvo XC60, try the hybrid one. Second is the Merc GLC, for me.
Yep, I am subscribing!
Literally, the only channel that actually went into EVERY detail of the vehicles. Not even sure why some do reviews on here and forget to cover basic info like driver seat comfort(seat adjustments, fit for tall or short), mpg, engine type, entertainment(like supports apple carplay/android or not) wireless charging, leather you get at what trim, avg costs for what you get, I mean not even all of this just BASIC OF BASIC information.
So thank you! This is my first time watching your video and definitely will be watching all your others! :)
Welcome!!!
Macan is definitely the prettiest IMO, but if you're like me and the "sporty-ness" isn't that big of an issue, it loses a lot of it's value over these others.
Great review 👏
Appreciated! Please recommend our channel 🤗
Exterior Design-wise I’d go for Porsche Macan. Interior design both cars GLC300 and Porsche Macan are very close. But i do think that GLC300 offers the better comfort as for a sitting position, practical stuffs (cruise control, computer voiceover, interior lighting) and driving experience. Unfortunately Mercedes has tendency to still using fake exhaust for such outstanding machine.
As for the review: I liked the video editing so that we had a full review of each SUV which is not an easy job. The video length is reasonable. Thank you!
MarkusDeep from Paris - 🇫🇷
Spectacular all-around comparison REVIEW! The best comparison. Thank you Thomas et al for this detailed SUV comparison.
Great reviews-highly recommended
Thx! Feel free to share it with your friends
Thank you again for your awesome reviews. Now that I'm 70, and had my share of V8's, my wife and I decided it's time for a 2020 luxury compact SUV. It had to be approximately 185 inches long to fit easily in our garage. It had to be a solid colour, because metallics are very difficult to touch up, so we chose white. So much for Lexus, Toyota, Acura, etc. We also didn't want sport seats, with big side bolsters, nor did we need an SUV with a V6 or V8. After looking at all the reviews and taking many test drives to check turbo lag, quietness, handling, ease of infotainment use, etc, we narrowed it down to four vehicles that met our criteria...the Audi Q5, BMW X3, GLC 300, or Porsche Macan. The Audi was nice, but is getting a mild refresh for 2021, so we didn't want to buy a 2020 model. The X3 felt big inside, had lots of cargo room, but we couldn't get the rims we wanted with all season tires. The salesman said we would have to buy snow tires as well, and we weren't prepared to do that.The Macan was very nice, but has too many buttons, HUD is not available, and you have to open the rear door to put the seats down. These may be minor points, because all of these SUV's are good, but I think they are worth mentioning. We ended up ordering a fully loaded GLC 300, Polar White with Night Package, Bicolour 20 inch wheels, but NOT the interior sports package with the sport seats. We traded in our 2012 M3 and 2012 Honda CRV for the GLC. With the run flat all season tires on the 20 inch wheels, the suspension is perfect, and the ride is nice and quiet. The GLC 300 with it's 2020 refresh, new 255 hp engine and MBUX seemed like the best choice for us, and we would definitely recommend it.
thanks for the insight! Great you re with us :)
Just got a GLC 300. It's awesome
Thomas, Enjoyed the SUV comparison, as I am in the market this year. As you have noted before, picking a car is a very personal and emotional choice, as seen in the wide variety of responses you have received on these cars. My personal take on these cars goes like this-
Audi- boring, boring, boring, your grandmother's car. Tacked-on infotainment screen looks like an afterthought.
Volvo- interesting interior, but handling is a zero. Exterior styling looks like a Volvo (boring)
GLC- Interior looks nice, but I think MB tends to make their interiors look too "glitzy" (think E-class). I considered an E-Class wagon as an alternative. Tacked-on infotainment screen. Column shifter is a downer for me. Exterior- generic SUV but not bad for the segment, second only to the Porsche in this group.
Alfa Romeo- Several of your readers mentioned this one. Nice car but reliability is a zero.
Macan- Scores high in everything IMHO. Great handling. Great looks. Integrated infotainment touch-screen looks much nicer and works great- not "tacked on". Great cockpit design, analog gauges, normal shifter. Good choice of rims and tire sizes (I know, for a price!). Contrary to some reviewers, I LIKE the buttons on the console. A lot better than digging through the screen menus. Just punch the button! Other cars (like Lexus RX) have just as many buttons but they are scattered in multiple places. At least with the Macan they're all in one place.
I figure in this price range one should get a car that one really likes, with as few compromises as possible. As for me, I ended up ordering a Macan S. The E-Class wagon was my second choice at almost exactly the same price as the Macan S. Yes, Porsches are higher and lots of things are options. But I figure over a 10-year ownership period, the price difference probably only amounts to two or three dollars a day, well worth it in my opinion to get the car that I really want. Macan = exciting. Others = boring and nothing to get excited about. My two-cents' worth......and to each his own!
Totally agree
I did compared all myself and I brought the x3 for the best sporty at the right price and best tech.
I have a fully loaded XC60 T6 R-Design in white with 22" rims. Because of the 22" rims, it has wider fenders and looks badass. I just prefer the exterior and interior over the Germans and I got great leasing rates. I have no problem with the Infotainment system. The two major negative points are the bad fuel economy and that the suspension/ride quality is worse than that of the Germans (even with the air suspension). However, since I drive less than 15.000 km a year and mostly on smooth roads, both negative points are not a big deal.
Thanks for the feedback!
Like Scorcese. 3,5 hours!
XD
My pick would be the X3. Best fuel economy. Up to date interior. Fun to drive. And I love the looks in- and outside.
but how can u compromise on ugly interior design??? i think its very very outdated
@@AleksandrDudko yes agreed ..audi is all plastic
Excellent review, as usual. I wonder which one he'd pick if they were all the same price.
Didnt I say? :)
@@autogefuehl OK, I watched it again and yes, you essentially did. I suppose I'd hoped you would overwhelmingly confirm my personal bias. I'm in the midst of selecting one of these or something close right now. Again, great reviews.
I own a 2019 Q5, It's fantastic
Nice! 🤙
No you don't
@@morrisdennis why not?
As you per your conclusion Thomas, it's a matter of opinion. And what deal you can get, or if you're 'brand-focused'. Or want a particular badge, for brand snobbery. I liked your spec for the GLC PHEV AirMatic. I like a light and bright interior. Macan is fancy but its pricing (and "everything is an extra" policy) is too cynical for me - and I don't like blank switches! They're all too expensive! But nice cars. Many thanks Thomas.
Really like this. Great family car. Can't wait till this available on the configurator 👍🏻
Mercedes GLC in coupe variant is my favorite SUV.
I always go for which model is the best looking. 2nd I go for quality of build. I think I’m my opinion the Mercedes comes 1st with the Porsche Macan a very close 2nd.
Next year I will be trading my two year old BMW M340i for the Mercedes GLC Coupe.
Hello Thomas, fantastic reviews here... hope you will keep on keeping on for 2020 ! Happy new year!
Also, may we know which car do you use personally on a daily basis ? cheers
PORSCHE Macan 😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Detailed and informative video. This makes it so easy when choosing between these vehicles and their competitors. May I suggest you include in your videos the general long-term reliability and maintenance costs of the brands when discussing these vehicles. You could also have a part of the video showing 3 people sitting in the 2nd row to show the 2nd row space. All in all, amazing video and keep up the fantastic work! 👍
Thanks! Sadly I cannot comment on long-term reliability and maintenance costs, no idea how I could do that in a representative fashion
Coming to the end of my lease with an x3 and trying to decide what to get. I just test drove the xc60 today and loved it not to mention I think it’s the most attractive looking model in the segment. I’m glad I came across this video which compared these different models very well!
welcome! Please share =)
Creative Young Minds
What was your experience with the X3? I’m considering it. Did you like it?
Awesome review. ❤️❤️
🙏🙏
Best wishes for 2020
The most impressing thing in your review is that you look and experience every auto as a Consumer , who is very careful about his choice and pays maximum attention to each and every Detail of the product , which he is gonna buy and the price he will have to pay for it .
Consumer’s satisfaction and trust on your information is based on the feeling and impression you let the viewrs get that you are standing on the side of a possible buyer/ consumer , which is very important and you have it .
Just like always , very detailed very broad informative review. Thanks .
Thx m8 all the best!
Same thoughts here. Macan too expensive, Q5 had nothing that triggers any "want to have". Didn´t like steering and suspension of the XC60. Came down to GLC or X3, went for X3 then.
Thanks for the feedback!
Happy new year, to you guys and to all car lovers and entuziast ! 🥂🍀😎
👌
Light interior gives additional 10 points for the car.
Great review- your voice is so soothing- makes you wan to listen!
😊
My 2019 Volvo XC60 is the best vehicle I’ve owned in fifty years of driving.
I was ready to get one, really excited, until I learned it is limited to 180 kmh. For most people that is not a problem, but for me (in Germany) that is a deal breaker as I use to drive faster. Sadly, I'm not even test driving it anymore.
@@dremul
That's really strange. I wonder if thats done for safety reasons. Still not great tho
I think the conclusion pretty much sums up how good these cars are lol. If price wasn't a thing, definitely the Macan for me. But I'd settle for the GLC. Or maybe the Q5. But the Volvo's interior is beautiful. Oh, dammit.
😂 1st world problems.
I just came across your video, and want to thank you for such an insightful, thorough review of these vehicles. Of those nameplates, I have owned two Porsches, and two Volvos in the past. Based on our needs, we are going to get a Volvo XC60 T6 Inscription as soon as the 2022's come out next month. Thanks!
Can u do comparison for lower price range non luxury brand SUVs?
Wow best 3.5 hours of my life, slept like a baby.
Lol
Glad I saw this video before deciding. Thank you!
The X3 all day 😍
I own a 4 year old Q5 Technik, love it but it's already rusting! Had a Volvo before and not a spot of rust after 10 years. I was looking at the Macan but after seing this video, I'm considering going back to Volvo :)
An amazing review. So glad I drive the brand that represents the pride and joy of Stuttgart. No regrets on my choice. Undoubtedly the biggest head turner here amongst the makes
Appreciated!
Perfekte Videolänge für die Morgenfluppe
The Macan is by far the most beautiful of them all!!
So sexy it hardly changes
It's a shitty car... like all the ones in the video.
Volvo excluded.
Thanks for review. 2021 Audi Q5 is awesome...
That Porsche looks fantastic.
definitely Macan.
I think ur right
I wish you'd show the rear signals. The US models have red, which I hate. I'd like to see how they look in Europe
Great, thorough video as ever. Superb! All great machines but depreciation in US makes them dumb purchases unless you plan to keep them 10-15 years. New X3 is about US$50K but one 3 years old with only 45K miles costs US$18-20K. Where did the other $30,000 go? Plus all the time you have $700 a month payment with perfect credit and very, very high insurance. X3 is not supposed to be a rich person's car but the math seems to suggest their owners really must have money to burn.
I do plan on keeping my Q5 10 years like my A4. I only drive about 3,000 miles a year. The 2011 A4 only has 46,000 miles on it. The secret to deal with depreciation I heard is to put 20% down to fight that and you won't be upside down if you decide to sell it in the first 5 years.
between the macan, GLC, x5 and q5 it seems x5 uses less fuel?
which one has the best sound system?
Mate, first of all, brilliant video. Danke Shoen! I noticed you used the acronym 'PF' a lot in this video. What does 'PF' mean?
Hi Thomas:
I'm gonna buy a new car
I'm really confused either 2021 GLC AMG 63 S+, or, 2021 MACAN Turbo.
Which one is more reliable!!!
Which one is more comfortable!!!
Regards.
Awesome effort. Thank you!
This channel manages to produce some of the most elaborate and German-esque reviews and, to a certain extent, analysis of the given vehicles. Its like writing a Karikaturanalyse for your Geschichte Abitur examinations, except its about automobiles 😂
welcome =)
I pick the XC60.... because I have one, and I love it.
I think the interior quality may equal the German cars but Volvo has more style. I just wish Volvo would work out their steering/handling/quietness/ride comfort dynamic qualities more. I keep waiting and waiting and they get closer but they should really work at it more. Seems Genesis is getting closer to it that than Volvo is. Because the Volvos really are nice looking now and have very nice interiors.
I vote for xc60.Second x3. I’ve an xc60 right now. I was the owner of an Audi Q5 in the past but I had many reliability issues and quality was not so good despite the premium price.
What year was your Q5? I currently have a 2019 and I’m concerned about long term reliability
Meldoy32 u better sell it n get get a Toyota rav 4 or highlander
@@Painandgain943 we’re comparing LUXURY PREMIUM crossover SUVs here, bro. RAV4 and Highlander are not in this league just so you know.
Good review
Thanks 🙏
Audi Q5 owner since 2016 I’m going to upgrade with new Q5 best one
I prefer the Macan but I bought the Q5 sline 2019 because of my wife, would not be agree :), fantastic to drive, so quiet and responsive!
I just ordered a silver prestige Q5 with black optics package and warm weather package for my lovely wife. Maybe in about 10 years I will order Porsche for myself, if my kids decide not to go to college.
Great reviews. The comment made about macan drivability - if u like it stiff and rough. Lol
Macan & X3 😻
GLC
Q5
X3

Thank You for including Porsche. As a fire fan of Porsche i'm glad to listen some great compliments about Pride of Stuttgart.
