Yes god forbid we ever have a hatchback. You can buy a hatch of an A or C class in Canada, even though they barely have a tenth of our population, plus offering them for sale in the US wouldn't cost anything as Canada and the US basically have identical requirements for things like lighting and safety. Better jack up every hatchback sold everywhere else 2 inches and cover it up with plastic cladding - instant hit! At least on the worst instance of this I've ever seen (CX-30) we still have the hatchback available over here (mazda3). I daily drive a Golf R just because I wanted a nice hatch with features, and it's one of the few. I would've just gotten a regular golf but they cheapen the crap out of the Mexican ones they sell here.

Hey, just got the A45s, but I actually prefer the old a45. Something about actual analogue Speedo rather than digital. Plus I find that whilst the new A45s has significantly improved the acceleration lag I found in comfort mode which the old A45 had (where I’d put my foot down and it took the car a few seconds to kick in)... I don’t want to drive it in comfort mode, I want to drive in sport +, and in manual... and in manual, I find the A45s a bit laggy in shift changes. And I can’t tell you how sad I was about the sound down grade with the exhaust system. With the improved comfort mode, and quiet sound engine, and terrible fuel economy of the new A45s, I almost wish I had bought a Tesla! All the fun bits of the A45 were in the old model... AND I don’t rate the burmeister sound system, I think the Harmon kardon system in the old A45 a LOT more punchier, with great surround and a nice deep base. This just doesn’t compare. What do you think? Ps, I like your show, but I notice you don’t review the sound systems in them... why is that? I think audio is important, and good speakers are essential in any car.

This is currently the best hot-hatch on the market. Prove me wrong.

[@agraelwinner]

You are probably right.

[@quoman2232]

Felipe Should be for the money. Beautiful car though.

[@camwat5193]

Is that a statement that factors in relative cost or just are you just conveniently ignoring that?

GR YARIS IS COMING

[@TheMercifulKnight]

Sadly right. There's nothing that beats this in performance in it's class. 420 HP from a 2 Liter is insanity. I don't see Audi or BMW getting close anytime soon. Let's wait and see.

[@Incurablecurious]

Absolutely beast of a car. Just consider for a minute it’s a 2 litre hatchback that’s over 200 BHP per litre!

[@autobahnpov9207]

the best pocket rocket out there! good decision

[@super9187]

1:50 Not the first time you’ve heard that one hey Mat? ;)

[@davidfletcher2162]

I completely agree with Matt. I've had a 2.0d 21 plate for the last couple of weeks its head and shoulders above the competition..

[@andrewstoffel1170]

Having to pay attention when driving on the motorway, first world problems !

[@AB-80X]

No. Not paying attention is a problem for idiots.

[@Dluger123]

Great video Matt, one idea for the Merc, could be you popping to a track with it and its rivals and seeing which is fastest with you in it vs which is faster with a Stig in it. Plus maybe the time difference in different driving modes, is track the fastest mode etc. You could also take a proper hot hatch along too to see the time different, maybe a focus ST?

[@AnimalzyNL]

Honestly insane how 2020 hatchbacks are quicker in a straight line than a 2010 lamborghini Gallardo for example.

This title is a joke. There are 5 sec of girlfriend. Damn cheating cheap marketing!

Which time in the video start those 5s?

[@paulrichardson7174]

1:45

[@bogdanrus7953]

Tbh, clicking on a video because it says "girlfriend" in the title is a bit pathetic.

[@Abicdti]

@@bogdanrus7953 and who told that I clicked the video just because? I stated the obvious: it's not the right title for the video. I guess your pathetic adjective fits you perfectly(among others).

[@bogdanrus7953]

@@Abicdti What i meant flew over your head, dummy. You implied that the title is cheap clickbait for views. What i tried to say and you took so personal is that the fact that this kind of clickbait for views only really works with a really specific, very sad type of viewer and the regular viewers of this channer are here for cars and not the clickbait title.

To activate the real sound of the AMG 45 you have to push one of the pedals and press the start botton at the same time so it sound more aggressive
