This is the first time BMW has introduced the 2 series Gran Coupe. The Mercedes CLA has been in the market since 2013, it has become a hit in Europe and North America which pushed BMW to bring it's own competitor to the CLA. In this video I compare them head to head and find out if the Gran Coupe is a proper competitor to the current king, the CLA. The 2020 Mercedes CLA has fresh interior and exterior, different engine and more technology. The 2020 BMW 2 Gran Coupe offers a 4 in line cylinder twinpower turbocharged engine similar to the Mercedes CLA. Both, 2020 Gran Coupe and 2020 CLA offer all wheel drive, Xdrive and 4 Matic, the 2020 CLA in the US offers a FWD system.

I love your hair x
hi sir, want to ask about different car audi a4 2020 if you have ever sat in it? because want to ask how you fit in there as we about same height. thank you
@@Biggie177 i did a review on it, check it out
@@SamCarLegion thanks didn't see that lol
I understand that the cla gearbox in with lots of legs compared to bmw 235 use a better gearbox 8 speed ZF one of the best in the market, glad to hear your opinion on that issue. Yaniv Danino
I may be the only nerd in the world that cares about this, but "BMW Series 2 Gran Coupe", that's 4 different languages in one name.
Was thinking about it haha. The way he says coupe, like a coup, made me realize it
@Mahdi_ODM haahhaha
With the accent on the e it’s pronounced Coupay.
The 2 series looks like a disappointed gerbil
Mercedes look so elegant yet sporty touch. Interior more superior, hi tech...just love it all. Mercedes perfect 10/10.
The BMW looks a lot better in real life, also you compared a fully packed CLA with a bog standard BMW..
That CLA is lit! Not a fan of the bmw front or rear end.
LiveOrLeave or the sides
I like the BMW 2-series front/grille but not the rear end.
Great review, by far one of the best I’ve seen detailing the CLA. Thank you!
Thank you
This is the best review of these two cars. It's made me decide I want the Mercedes CLA, even though I have always been a BMW owner. Thank you Sam.
Should have looked at the 430i
Great review! Thanks
Very good video thanks
I went to see the new 2GC in person today and it looks so much better in person.
Much better quality interior than the CLA - less scratchy plastics
agree 100 %. The CLA is so full of plastic
i completely agree ... in real life this looks so much better
Exactly i fell in love with it seeing it and came to youtube...
by far better the bmw in real life. Went to see both. Overall quality of bmw is another level from cheap plastics in merc. I finaly bought the gran coupe....
Needed Comparison!! Good stuff
Thank You Buddy 😊😊😊
Please make a video about the 4 series gran coupe, thanks
the bmw is agly! the mercedes is beautiful!!
Thank u so much man
You're welcome
You forgot to mention a very key way Mercedes allows you to control the instruments, which is the touch pads located on the steering wheel.
Great system. and easy to use.......Ireland
you actualy had more leg room in the bmw
Guys in the video it definitely looks like the cla takes it but I’ve seen the BMW in person for the first time it looks sick!!!
I've just ordered one be here in September it's bad ass
@@ag9128 How are you finding it? I ordered mine and arrives next month
@@ifhzu I get it Tuesday got pushed back with covid but will get back to you when I've picked it up pal
@@ifhzu alright mate got the car two days ago I love it it's better than I thought I got the 218i msport all white with red seats it's bad ass not as much room I the boot than the A class amg but apart from that everythings better and sport modes decent as well I'm happy any way mate
@@ag9128 That's cool. Mine has been delayed for another few weeks. Hopefully comes this year. Thank you and enjoy the machine! :)
If you see these cars in real, you may feel different. I sit in both cars and found Cla was not looking as flash as its look on screen. However, BMW new design was more premium feeling in my opinion.
There is no doubt cla exterior is far better than 2 series.
Ur just wrong, the cla feels much nicer than it looks
what about the space in the rear? which vehicle is more the more spacious for the rear passengers ?
I agree, the CLA interior did not give the premium feel I had been used to from previous models. The BMW interior had the edge in this respect.
That CLA interior is blowing that BMW out of the water….not even close
BMW has a much better warranty and is more sporty. I've had both.
I tried both; the BMW drives definitely better.
💯💯💯
My CLA is a similar spec except I have the 2 tone black (MB text & fabric) with red stitching interior & the brushed aluminum trim. I love it so much so far. I get looks and compliments everywhere.
Congrats!
How much was it?🤑
@@jamesdelgado6870 I bought it in January of 2020 so before the crazy Covid prices of cars. They wanted 50k I got it for $43,500. No way they'd make that deal now.
@@DaygoG last question srry to bother, how much HP?🙈
@@jamesdelgado6870 All good bro, 221 I think, it's hella quick for the size of the car. I can't even imagine the AMG models.
Thank you
2:50 i think your software had a small glitch
It's updating. Soon it will be fixed
Can you review 2020 BMW m235i gran coupe
The cla interior is on another level compared to the bmw
yes, its much worse with that broad i-pad screen
The Benz looked good, but material and build quality is shittier
Much lower. That's a cheap looking interior in my opinion.
What is that abother level? Tacky and flashy?
I ordered the CLA in January, I was originally told there was a 6month saith for the premium. But was called at start of march as they had sourced one for me, and I'd get it in April. But then COVID hit. So I have no idea when I will get it now.
It sucks with this covid 19
☝🏻Good advise mate👍🏻 😇Cheers‼️
The CLA back window is so small, very hard to drive with most of Canada get dark at 4pm in winter.
Mercedes is killing the game right now! 🔥
I like this bmw look, actually drives nice too. If you get a good deal..
The 2 GC is spec dependent. The M sport looks so much better
Yes.
I'm used a 2022 BMW 218i gran coupe, too.. 😊.
Nice car, nice exterior.. 😍.
Do all entry level. A class , CLA , 2series , AWD , take premium fuel ?
CLA looks way better, great video
Thank you
I saw the smile on your face when you are in merc
I like how the 2 series line have 4 different body styles lmao
19:07 lol spit it out junior
Which one is faster
The Merc looks way sexier. That Bimmer is whack reminds me of that time Toyota put a Lexus badge on a Corolla and sold it for 40k.
So true
The BMW looks SO...SO bad. This is coming from a lifelong BMW owner.
It's their first one, give them sometimes
@AustinSBL306 i agree. I am doing a comparison with the 235 M GC, that things looks way better!
Sam CarLegion in this climate giving them time is not an excuse. They have the money and resource to release a perfectly good looking and well proportioned car. This was clearly a rush because the A class, CLA and A3 were probably eating sales to the stale 2 series. Why on earth is a German car trying to look Korean?!
@@maddcrz you might right about the rush, they woke up too late on this. No excuses.
Fleude am fahlen- BMW has gone "all in" for the Ch$nese market...🤐
Now if the BMW was rear wheel drive it would at least have something unique and stay true to their heritage.
Can i ask. Whats the problem of the front wheel drive? Why many people dont like it
@@fumiyafuse6374 It's more engaging to drive. Even if you just drive casually it gives a nicer vibe as you get a feeling of behind pushed from behind instead of being pulled from the front. And if you are skilled to can do fun things like drifting.
3:33 Is that CLA shedding its clear coat below the bonnet badge? Have Mercedes quality gone back to 2004?
Till 2010 quality of material was damn good
Which one drives better
I'm a BMW fan buy who owns a BMW m140i but I have to say as capable as I'm sure the 2 series grand coupe is it's just a pig to look at and compared to the CLA it's a no contest.
Come on BMW I love my car 2019 car but a few of the 2020 cars are just things only a mother could love
I duobt you are a BMW owner.
How did they mess up the bmw this badly
It's their first one
Its cheap. For people like you
same as the x6
That BMW is an affront to visual aesthetics. A coupé is supposed to be sexy and that thing is a waste of design opportunity.
@The 40 Gamer Why would they be jealous? the CLA is better in almost every way...
5:16 is it just me or the bmw looks like a new Prius from this point of view 😂
I personally have the 2020 cla and in my opinion it is BY FAR the best affordable luxury/sporty car on the market right now. Obviously the power lacks when comparing to a more engine focused car, But nonetheless you feel somewhat superior to others on the road because of the advanced tech. Beautiful looking car too.
Also because it's a damn Mercedes bro....the best
When i took my e90 to the dealer for a recall they gave me a 2 series gran coupe loaner. After 10 minutes of driving i was ready to get my e90 back!
I'd take an E90 over an F30 any day of the week.
i have the 2020 cla amg premium plus and it is a truly excellent all round car the interior is stunning especially at night.
The ambient lighting makes it a joy to drive and turns heads wherever you go.
Also the augmented reality sat nav is amazing there is nothing else out there on the market like it including the big luxury brands like Bentley and rolls Royce.
You will never take a wrong exit again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2 series coupe looks way way better than both of them
great video. I wish I got one of these instead of setting for the caddy xt4. big car regret. I want bmw instead
Its cla 180 and bmw 218i???
I own a BMW 220i and a CLA 200 (but the previous generation). In general (even though my cars are older) I would come up to the same consusion. Personally I prefer the CLA, it is just more fun. The BMW gives a bit more comfort. But there are also small things in the Mercedes that are just better. Either way both cars are great. If you prefer comfort go with the BMW, if you prefer sports and more precise driving go with the Mercedes. I could see the smile on the face of Sam and that's what I get when I get into the CLA (which btw. is slower than my BMW, but just feels more sporty). Next year upgrading to a C35.

Can you do a video of the 2 or 3 series vs the A class Mercedes
Keonte Scott sure
I’m actually confused with why people think it’s so ugly and why it gets so much hate. Like I agree it’s not the best looking bmw but it still looks pretty similar to the 3 series when compared
Everyone has a different taste. The 235i M Gc is so much better
Sam CarLegion ya like I said I can see why people don’t like it but it’s he way people have described it in the comments of almost any video of it completely destroys it
Im late i was at school
All good :)
@@SamCarLegion thank you
I like ct5-v can u make a video on it
It will be uploaded soon :)
CLA looks 1,000,000 times better 👍
No way
Didnt BMW drop charging extra subscription fees for every little option, like heated seats and such ? That is something I think gives BMW the big edge over Mercedes now. No monthly nickel and dime you to death nuisance fees.
In my opinion the bmw is better bc I went to go view the cla and they said a 4-6month wait and the features aren’t the best compared to the bmw the bmw it’s a 4-6week wait which is better and electronic boot and electronic seats and heated seats which in my opinion is better
A longer wait indicates more consumer demand and more attention to detail by the manufacturer.
Thought the 2 series sedan competes with a class
Possibly.
Way to completely miss that if you didn’t herb the spare tire option in the bmw, the false flood can be removed to get 15.7cu ft of trunk space... take rate for the spare is something like 5% (don’t quote me on that number, I just know I haven’t seen one yet) because most bmws are had with run flats.
Also... you couldn’t even get your knees into the CLA... they were straddling the seat... yet in the bmw you got your knees behind the seat no problem... tight yes but still room. Not going to argue the headroom in either tho since “coupe styling” has always been an I hate my rear passengers car type hahaha 😂
And a heads up display is available on the 228I
i think BMW is most than mercedes ,
thank for your Explain .......
BMW looks like Hyundai
more like kia stinger
@@Shockload more like Hyundai elantra😢
Doesn't look like a Hyundai or Kia
The BMW grand coupe looks as ugly as the Mercedes CLA coupe here .🤣🤣🤣
More like a kia ...
I want bmw before this video but mercedes interior and exterior is unique. Now I see a lot bmw body shape in other chinese car except for the grill.
18:25 thought he was going to crash!
Why?
how tall are you >?
6.2
Hello, i hope you are fine but can i ask you ?
Yeah, the CLA’s only drawback is it’s lack of rear passenger headroom.
bmw doesn’t have much leg room but the m sport package or even the m235i is cheaper then an amg isn’t it.
The benz looks sleeker while the beemer is bulkier but its all down to preference
CLA
BMW build quality and material used is just so much better than merc. BMW infotainment is also touch screen too. Have test drive both and fun BMW drive better too.
Rear seat I think BMW got more leg room.
I guess Reviewer is also seem like pro merc more. More screen time for merc too. 🤣
isn't the A-Class sedan you should be comparing to the 2 series gran coupe? Cause 2 series is actually a stretched 1 series
These two are a perfect match. Price wise, space wise... everything.
wrong! The 2 GC is actually based on the X1 and X2 chassis
Mercedes Interior air vent design is from nostalgic SL class from the 50 & not from the Kia Stinger! LOL! 😅
Why is this even a video? Cla is leagues above
Where does it say that it is? How did you come up with that?
Sam CarLegion all due respect my friend, I agree with Fay Ahmad. This is an excellent, concise and informative video, however the CLA is way above the 2 series in terms of looks (the whole reason for buying such a car in this niche segment) and even though the 2 series interior is very impressive, it is nothing compared to what the CLA offers.
What Mercedes does great is that their entry level cars feel much more special than they are. Even at first glance MB just looks more premium. Plus the interior? MB really kills it in that arena. If it came down between these two, MB no questions asked.
The CLA looks disgusting and the big ONE screen interior is cheap looking even if the clusters are nice. Good car for all grandpaps the CLA !
@@peterhammer6915 If the CLA is disgusting then that 2 series is an absolute abomination. Exterior looks oddly shaped, interior looks like it is designed by an undergrad design student using Microsoft Paint. Pure garbage
My step daughter has a new Mercedes Benz GLE 250 and after all the problems with electronic systems failing their customer service is not very impressive. "It's a luxury vehicle with many extras so it's not uncommon to experience some failures " this after several attempts to rectify problems such as the failure of drivers power window. For spending in excess of $150,000 Mercedes attitude towards the customer service is unacceptable.
Yea that is unacceptable. I have owned 3 GLC cars with all the extras and none of those vehicles had problems. That GLE 250 clearly is a duff vehicle and should been taken back and replaced.
Mercedes best engine ever
Renault hold my beer
Normal 2 series coupé is just so much better
No
@@patricktrinh9389 yes
Brain says CLA but heart says BMW
I love BMW
BMW really screwed up with that front grill in the 2020 models onwards.
just buy a camry easier name to remember
I think the BMW definitely has it in the looks department - the CLA looks like a bald man's head to me 😅
Good video, but unfortunately from the first second it was clear that you are a big fan of Mercedes and that BMW had no chance there, even if you compared the BMW 8 gran coupe.To be clear, the Mercedes looks better and maybe it is better, but it's sad that in duels like this, you see from the first second what you prefer ... it's not fair
Zero understanding about inches and cubic feet. I though everyone uses metric systems nowadays but was wrong. Otherwise nice comparison :)
edit: haha read the comments, all BMW haters as usually crawling from their caves!
The cla has always looked like a baby cls which made it attractive but that bmw is HIDEOUS
yes especially since Mercedes marketing department has done an amazing job at realizing younger people want a futuristic car. the infotainment of the a class and CLA is legit from the S class, big win for the consumers and big win for mercedes as they're sales will skyrocket
I have driven both of these cars but in better spec Mercedes was l AMG line premium plus and the BMW was M sport The BMW is for people who like to dive
Wtf? You just put the driver seat all the way back so you can complain about leg room
It's hilarious how the BMW 2 Series GC is more...benz and the CLA is more BMW? Like typically the bimmers are the ones that look sleek and sporty, it's the opposite here.
not "bí em dabljú" but "Be em ve" like right german
Interior in Benz is nice, but exterior design of BMW will age better
I am big fan of BMW.
But I was disappointed with 2 series.
the bmw reminds me off a fully loaded honda accord
2007 Honda Accord Euro was one of the best cars I ever owned. Some of the Lexus models also look similar to the Honda Accord.
In my opinion, sloped back coupes, which they are not they're sedans, are horrible designs. Why on earth sacrifice so much headroom where normal people can't sit in the back of the car? Never would German cars have done such a stupid thing in previous eras. This style compromised form that happens now was never permitted. I don't think matte paint exteriors look good, different though they be. And I think it's time to end the shiny glossy black plastics in car interiors, those need to be matte. The BMW's interior manages to have more class than the glitzy looking Mercedes interior. But these cars lack proper space inside and definitely are built down to a price.
All new Nissan cla?
you talk like Christopher Walken.
You can’t compare these two because The Mercedes is AMG line and the BMW it’s only sport
"Of course"
Hey la ça ne plaisante plus on est dans le professionnalisme extrême pragmatique
