2020 Mercedes GLS Review // Family approved

[@devynm1309]

Lol, I loved the exchange between you two at the end of the video. More of those moments please! Great review.

[@stevehunter7402]

It’s like having sport mode on a school bus or a dump truck.

[@TalismanPHX]

Andrea is awesome, and very articulate in her driving experiences. You two are super cute together!

[@shivap202]

It was not clear..,so the question

[@benoitmurray85]

Good to have her back! I like the complicity that you have!

[@IKnewMickey]

Finally a reasonably angled back window. Boxy is good!

[@boybtp]

I drove both X7 and GLS in same drive mode and ended up buying X7. Mercedes GLS drives like a slow pick up truck whereas X7 drives like a compact sporty sedan (better and smoother ride with faster acceleration - Answer to Andrea's question at 12:36). Mercedes GLS does offer better cargo space with all three rows up though.

[@topwealthventuresrealestate]

Which of the two has the floatier ride in comfort mode

[@Zero_316]

GLS slow? Not sure I agree. The 580 and 63 are very compelling propositions

[@agustinliden6189]

Mercedes-Benz GLS ⤵️ is one of the world's most beautiful SUVs and in terms of size it resembles the BMW X7 and in terms of equipment it resembles the BMW X7. This drive review is absolutely epic.

[@migy5031]

Great review! Andrea is a natural!👍

[@RyanRusich]

A+ Andrea! (Zack just squeaks by) 🤓

[@rickbeyers]

This looks like the perfect vehicle for touring across Canada.

[@adamg9208]

Glad to see Andrea back in another video. She needs to be in them more often.

[@patriciagalloway9983]

Its funny to hear them speak of how big the vehicle is. I'm used to driving Expeditions and Suburbans so I'm a bit apprehensive about switching thinking it may be too small

[@taylortwinsandpreslie8662]

Yes! I've got a giant vehicle and keep watching these car videos wondering if I can get anything smaller with 3 kids. I just don't know. I like Suburban sized vehicles personally. I really don't think I could downsize

[@MMHCC850]

95K OMG!!, My 2020 KIA TELLURIDE at half the price for the win!. Good for you rich people tho!. Your wife's a natural in the business.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

You're comparing a Mercedes S-Class to a Kia? OK. Kia Telluride for $45k? OMG. Used diesel Smart car for the win!

[@Zero_316]

True. But the Telluride is half the GLS.

[@cajunsushi]

Great review. So natural in your conversation in evaluating this Mercedes. If I had the financial capability, I’d definitely consider the vehicle. More couple reviews, please.

[@robwoods5434]

You two are a great review duo - really enjoyed this review. Your reviews are always thorough - I enjoy from the US (AZ)

[@Motormouth...]

Glad you like them!

[@philipguacci6452]

Great to see and hear Andrea's point of view. A true car fan with a practical point of view. Thank you.

[@emsg2009]

Awesome review, love the concept, couple goals lol. First comment by the way lol

[@Dortch3]

Great review...Andrea's perspective is refreshing. I do want to give you an example of "we will make it smaller"...1994 Honda Accord. Needless to say, it did not go over well.

[@brattberg]

"Lets make it smaller?" Sounds like what they did to the new Acadia Denali from GMC...

[@tommyolsen8224]

Love the new GLS , wow ! 😍

[@arnoldguevara9371]

Great partnership in narrating this video - well done!

[@dexagalapagos]

Who cares about sport mode on an SUV, we buy these for comfy rides, not to pretend we're driving a sports car.

[@Lionheart_He-Man]

I really enjoyed this video and test drive of the Mercedes-Benz GLS with Andrea, I’m a bit surprised that she said that she wouldn’t give up her Porsche Cayenne for the GLS. The , styling, drive, space, long wheelbase and features is a real plus!

[@peterszmerdt1959]

Agreed. She's def not into Mercedes suspension. Based on her evaluation. Too soft, she said, so I believe this is why. I have to disagree myself. I have a 2021 and would not trade it in for anything. Not at this point anyways. Cayenne doesn't ride nearly as nice, but that's my personal opinion of course. I drove an X7 (which is much more compatible, for quite some time, and I have to say that was awful on long trips. In rear seat you bounce around like a clown. Not even close to GLS built 2020-2023.

[@SnelgroveDave]

I do like seeing your reviews with Andrea on board. Well done.

[@MrAjay3234]

I hate to say it Zack I agree with Andrea that shifter is really dumb, I once drove my cousins GLS and was quite lost every time I had to shift and had to look and think before doing it. I don't think it'll ever become a second nature type of thing with this set up IMO

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

It's an electric switch. Who cares where they put it. Most shifters used to be on the steering wheel. As she said, you'll get used to it.

[@sakapole]

Excelente reseña como siempre, Gracias. No necesito 7 plazas, ni un maletero grande pero antes que finalice el año compraré el GLS 400d 330 hp y 700 Nm de torque. Es por la elegancia, motor, la suspensión Airmatik, E-active Body Control y Off Road Tecnik Package. Un capricho.

[@Endorion_YTC]

I'm in the US and I really wish MBUSA had that AMG Exterior Package for the 450. It's unfair how the Canadian market has it and it's not appealing to have plastic trim on the fender flares... It's not really the "S-Class of SUV's". The real S-Class has no plastic trim on the exterior sides. Regardless, I'll be placing my order somewhat later 2021 and see what happens. This is a great review regardless I know more a lot of this vehicle as I watched almost 40 videos of this vehicle.

[@FoodyTunes]

Totally agree with you about automakers always seeming to be making their vehicles bigger - but just to be an ass, this generation of GMC Acadia was made slightly smaller than the last gen. Great review on this as always! Thanks!

[@whitemailprivilege2830]

Neil K that’s like a 500 pound person who loses 100 pounds, still a fatass

[@maneeshacquilla3091]

I think you guys do great reviews

[@topwealthventuresrealestate]

I like floaty rides and soft rides which has this more the 2020 Gle or the 2020 Gls ride? Please respond

[@-Munditimum-]

Great Duo. Great vehicle. Great video! Nicely done!

[@alexhuang786]

Great review as usual

[@Motormouth...]

I appreciate that

[@thanhnamle693]

I love Mercedes GLS450 4Matic

[@voterdown]

A lot of filler talk about nothing. Not a review, just a lot of gushing over how they love the vehicle and if they had the money they’d buy one. They also refer to every other car they’ve reviewed and how they love them too. Review without offering a real look at vehicle.

[@Zero_316]

My wife and I are in the market for a 3 row SUV. She can’t get past the X7’s grille. So we are off to the paces with the GLS. V6 or 8 ?

[@AmroG.]

That was a really fun to watch review, thanks. Now, back to assignment 😂

[@grupoh6992]

Andrea and you make a great team…..

[@Motormouth...]

Thank you

[@mariannalacrosse2886]

This is an awesome car I love mid size suvs not compact too small love safety features tech etc

[@ZestyLemonBoi]

Brilliant!

[@MrAjay3234]

well done folks

[@blutsx]

beautiful car

[@evie6811]

It's a little misleading that you're driving the 6 passenger model but keep saying 7 passenger. If I didn't already know that the third row only has 2 seats I would've assumed it had 3 since you keep saying 7 passengewr with two captains chairs in the second row. By all means specify that it comes in 7 seater configuration but also noting that you have the 6 seater model. Although I love seeing Andrea back so well done there.

[@garysandhu5082]

Good review! I’d throw a land cruiser in the mix as well.

[@Ruel3A]

i have seen some models who have air vents on the ceiling from 2nd row to the 3rd row? your test unit doesn't have? why? is it only available on some trims not on the 450?

He told her to floor it and she acted like she didn't hear him.

[@eyesurgeon69]

Seat controls are placed on the door to allow the seat bottom to be wider, so wide that seat mounted controls cannot be accessed. The same reason the current Range Rover moved controls to the door.

[@Motormouth...]

It's on the door on all Mercedes products.

[@OMGz1122]

Will you and your wife be testing the GLS 63 AMG version? I noticed that both of you love sporty vehicles....hehe

[@tanvirmukit5132]

it would be great if you could do a comparison with the X7. personally speaking, the design of the GLS is not attractive enough. looks like a bigger GLE. they manage to make the cars bigger in every iteration. i like a proportionate car - size, engine, power etc. and the driving dynamics is the most important aspect. i think the X7 is a better product than this GLS. your thoughts?

[@papagen00]

"the ride is too smooth and floaty..." This is EXACTLY what I want in a car or SUV. I do not want sport or feel the road imperfections. Give me that smooth floaty magic carpet! As an aside, Lexus bowed to pressures from KZbin reviewers' OBSESSION with performance and sport', and in the process destroying their legendary smooth ride and silent cabin. I will never buy another Lexus and I have test driven the new RX.

[@hr5526]

Can offer you a suggestion if you don't mind please,,,,why don't you try to help driver how to match interior design with exterior design like what leather colour would make happier climet inside and how could you match that to exterior with spoiling the nature of car and etc,,,

[@samihachem3212]

Great review very informative .

[@lunaticcycle1300]

Watch check? And on the misses?

[@Motormouth...]

Pink Datejust

[@topwealthventuresrealestate]

So answer me this the 2019 Gle is softer and floatier than this 2020 Gls both in comfort mode ?

[@jonathanl2748]

Women seem to prefer the tan interior and most of the GLS’s come with black or gray interiors.

[@topwealthventuresrealestate]

Which has the softest smoothest ride that drives with the most floaty drive the 2020 benz gle 450 or benz 2020 Gls 450?

[@Motormouth...]

GLE

[@teriok6783]

The inline 6 on the X7 is so much better.

[@LuvvSURYA]

Right off the bat, when you said at the beginning, “You know what I love about this, Andrea?” I thought you were gonna say next, “I love you, Andrea 😍” Lol. Pun aside, it was good to see her on screen after a long time. Well done review but the shots were boring. Sorry. I think you could point out at the bodywork of the new GLS how and where it is a departure from the old GLS.

[@DonFather]

people who used to buy S classes would probably rather buy this now because of trend & lifestyle, so there is a market alright.

[@Yoshi-Wise]

When driving a larger vehicle you don't drive so assertively? Speak for yourself mate. I love SUVs because I own the road. I love Mercedes features

[@SkyMaloba9599]

It like you complain that the Banana should be bitter or the Aloe Vera to be sweet. The GLS is a luxury business class car: Consumer expect a smooth ride an outstanding suspension. That's why Mercedes give you an AMG Sport version as well for aggression.

[@CaptainDawg02]

She wouldn’t fit the boys in the back of the BMW X7. There is only 3” of space between the two armrests in the captain’s chairs, so it’s impossible to climb to the 3rd row. Huuuuuuuuge differentiator. I mean you could wait 2 minutes for the chair to slide forward and then another 2 to slide back.... It’s what made us have to eliminate the X7 from consideration. Great driving vehicle, had basically the same features, but dang...just too skinny.

[@MyAlexWest]

Family approved ========= for such car IT IS / CAR LOAN APPROVED/ matters :)

[@wilma740]

Andrea Rules ! She is Brilliant!

[@dapeng1919]

Great you two

[@markdulmage2152]

You always need the v8

[@MrORIGIN63]

Who buys a 7 passenger suv for there sporty handling? Who cares?

[@RasmusandPiper]

Q7 is cheaper and almost the same space for people and cargo

[@rajmoney1575]

I’ll stick with my 2011 GL 450 with a V8

[@feifeijay]

I like the 2011 model year too

[@bradleyscarreviews]

You can get the gls 580, which is a lot better than your 2011, with so much technology!

[@rajmoney1575]

Bradley's Car Reviews lol we actually were planning on that

[@bradleyscarreviews]

I think you should do it!! And record a video for me!! 😂!!

[@rajmoney1575]

Bradley's Car Reviews We are waiting for next year so we can get a better price on a used one right now there are still going for 100k+

[@hillsje]

How can he afford to live in Vancouver and drive all these super expensive cars and SUVs? Do KZbin videos and writing about cars really generate that kind of income? Crazy.

[@justrandomthings319]

Is Vancouver expensive?

[@nickolastiguan]

chancy319 one of the most expensive city in North America.

[@morganoxer5560]

it's not like he buys the cars he takes tests so I don't get why your confused

[@cancercell1]

making cars smaller? mazda miata :)

[@philip7415]

new model made third row much smaller And lower ceiling at rear. That was only for makes exterior car back more curved than previous model . Not good for long journey.

[@danaolson2871]

Sport Unreliability Vehicle, POS climate change deniers only please. Super complex engine, and undersized suspension parts fail frequently on past versions of this. They missed the window to make this an electric car. The owner of the largest independent Mercedes repair shop near me told me last week that he personally will never buy another Mercedes vehicle as they have become so unreliable in the last 10 years. Sad, as this is a super vehicle to drive and ride in. Just don't take it anywhere a phone doesn't work, cause you will need a tow truck. Go look at the reliability ratings on Consumer Reports or any where that collects data on vehicles more than two years old.

[@whoarie]

Hi!

[@Riplure]

The new bmw supra is smaller.

I'd rather you just review the vehicle yourself. She barely knows what she's talking about. Do a proper review and if you really want to get her feedback from driving it, you can make a separate video. Otherwise, this "review" doesn't tell us much about the vehicle.

[@J_S_246]

@chancy319 Jeez.... Her review is going to appeal to certain people who probably live a different lifestyle from yours and would most probably buy the vehicle. I know I won't buy this vehicle; however, we, the viewers, appreciate her perspective as a female and as a potential consumer of the product out there in the world. She also enjoys contributing to the team, and that's what this is. :) If you know exactly what you want or just want more information, go to the MB website or a dealership and go for your own test-drive.

[@adstix]

@@J_S_246 I totally agree with you!

[@MrAjay3234]

her opinion is very relevant in the case of this SUV as it is a mom type of vehicle and most would be used for a family operation

[@Motormouth...]

Who do you think drives these types of vehicles? Women.

[@FoodyTunes]

How could anyone not learn a lot from this video? Andrea added a lot of value with her assessment of how she felt the way it drives - and Zack does a great job, but sometimes when you hear from someone who doesn’t review vehicles every day, it can be easier to understand from another regular driver like Andrea.
