Mercedes Engineering:Should give the GLB 302 or 415 horsepower? Dodge Engineering:How do we make the Hellcat engine fit in the Pacifica?

[@TheLegend-xr2sx]

What`s about the R63 AMG?

[@meuwoo]

that’s from like 10 years ago, but i can see where you’re coming from, sadly mercedes is waaaayy past that point of insane family cars, apart from of course the a45, but that’s not really a family car imo.

[@JohnDoe-dh6zy]

This is probably the best review I've read on it, and I can tell he is very good at what he does. He focused primarily on the drivability of it all and things the average person wonders about- not heating/cooling vents or seat stitching. If he reads these comments, he should focus yet more on the infotainment, which he barely mentioned. Does it work well? Not? He also did the seat comparison to other vehicles, which really helped. He should do more of those where and when he can. For example how does this compare to the NX F? I bet it's no comparison, but I would like to know his thoughts. Again, very well done. I think this came in much lower than the 50k pound mark. This starts at $50k US but then again I don't know the tariff/tax situation in the UK. A nicely equipped model goes for about 55-60 in the US. If you consider a fully loaded Escape goes for $40k US, this probably isn't that far off of the mark in pricing. Still, it's high and most likely will be a low MB production vehicle, even by luxury car market standards. Still yet, if you consider its versatility and the fact you get an AMG and all its trickle down technology, it's probably priced quite nicely relatively speaking. It's all about perspective my driving enthusiast friends.

[@Neojhun]

This is my favourite Sport Utility Xover. No joke it's one of the few truly good ones in the category i'd take over a wagon. 3 Row Seating in such a small car being the killer feature.

[@mikadavies660]

Love the look but I would want a GLB 45!

[@joshbacon8241]

So why isn’t there going to be a GLB 45 version, like with the GLA 45?

[@titagwangazten921]

love the design, it turns my head as if it was a G wagon this is the car which you buy not for performance but just a daily driver

[@alianshasi6187]

GLB is a very practical compact SUV . I believe if they made the design look more like a baby G class it would have obtained more momentum from a marketing perspective. This role is now played by the Suzuki Jimni.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

I agree on the Jimni comparison 👍🏻👍🏻

[@samthoma2719]

Never though of it this way, great insight!

[@FalcoBikes]

Hard to do because the G wagon is alraedy rather short.

[@borosasa3500]

This should of been the new Forester STI. Subaru hope your watching.

[@Nemoticon]

Too complicated and expensive to be a Subaru...

[@magnustan841]

It's madness because the market is mad competitive nowadays, Land Rover never made a fast, sporty version of the Discovery Sport, so Mercedes has a unique offering here to make them stand out. No one else makes a speedy, sporty car for 7 people. The GLB35 is for the family man of at least 3 kids, whose a bit of an enthusiastic driver.

[@irGuilty]

X7?

[@alexanderziehl7529]

that lag is just because its a 4 cylinder my s3 is the same way if you low in the rev range

[@A_08c]

Just a quick question, why doesn’t the uk version of the glb35 not have the dynamic select scroll on the steering wheel, on the other hand Americans and other countries do?

[@crisscaseflows]

It's more mini GLS than mini G class in terms of shape, looks decent

[@mjmoran1103]

Wasn't interested in this car tbh. Its only because Rory is such a decent presenter its worth a watch.

[@pegomashishi9073]

they really should've given Rory all of Top Gear

[@11Fraz]

no more crazy than the R63 AMG back in the day...

[@nosaoyemade9618]

It’s amazing how I’m not a fan of the G Wagon but own the glb, the AMG35 will be my next one, God willing. Don’t get a third row, there’s no room for it, it’s not comfortable. If you have a bad back, you don’t need a soft seat you want a good support. I like the seat, I don’t care the for soft seats. American specifications are different from the European versions.

[@kristians2704]

baby G class? More like baby GLS

[@Manustars1234]

Awesome video brother God Bless

[@MPPJ1931]

This is the closest thing we have in America to an affordable fast wagon. This is about as much an SUV as a forester. This is a looow CUV or just a high roof wagon. The 250 4matic is extremely tossable, on decent country roads, and the 35 is even more so. 250 & 35 are underrated as decent driving family movers. Yeah they look and for the most part feel Mercedes where the shine is in the driving.

[@wdbaudio]

That red metallic colour is absolutely beautiful; It's bold without being shouty. I really like it!

[@elmidadaulat-skaluba2969]

[@tomraymond9795]

The Skoda Kodiaq VRS is over £10k cheaper and is a much more practical, spacious family SUV which also handles well and is only just over 1/2 a second slower to 60. A cheeky remap can push that bi turbo diesel unit to over 300 bhp although I'd be more tempted to go for an eco map as that would give loads of low down shove Which would probably suit the dsg box better and give something like the effortless torque experience not electric motoring, as well as getting your real world mpg well into the 30's. I actually think they look better than this too, although it's the wrong badge for alot of folks...

[@SignoPanino]

Agreed. The new petrol Kodiaq vRS brings it even closer to GLB as well, for a fraction of the price

[@JaBlanche]

Solid review. Shame that the seats have garnered so many complaints.

[@focusgreg4136]

Excellent review 🔥

[@darkbassi5911]

My mate had one as a demonstrator. the GLB 200 was a great car, would have probably brought one, but Mercedes didn't really make any effort in contacting him to buy one, he dropped it off, said he likes it, never heard anything back. Ended up buying an XC40,

This is a car for car snobs who will spend a premium for the Mercedes badge. The price does give you a YIKES moment. Nevertheless I like it, quirky different and not the “Eurobox” that offers up car styling that gives an uncanny similarity of cars, this is surely not that. If I was in the market for a seven seat definitely worth my consideration

[@lukazupie7220]

After spending time in the M-B, was is better to get back into the Formentor? Sounds like it was. 7 seats? 2 are for Munchkins. At 50k I guess you could say it's a bargain since so many cars are heading toward the 100k mark these days. I'm sure they will sell all of them.
