The Mercedes-Benz GLE 53 AMG is M I D. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

To clarify, this car doing 4.9 seconds is NOT FAST. Especially when compared to this car competition. The BMW X5 M50i does 0-60 in 3.5 seconds. The Audi SQ8 and SQ7 does 3.8 seconds. Those cars also sound better and ride just as nice (in the case of the Audi nicer). I understand this isn’t the C63 but it’s also shouldn’t be an AMG product. It’s handling is mediocre, the power is adequate for something this size but nothing more, and ultimately it doesn’t make you feel like your driving an AMG product. It’s a very mid car and after spending years driving tons of different cars, this is easily an AMG product that doesn’t inspire. However, I have another AMG product coming tomorrow (that’s not a 63 model) that is VERY GOOD. 🙂

[@saadarshad6691]

Love your videos dude 👍🏻

[@stefan514]

The comparison to those cars doesn't make sense and the real world time is more like 4.5 On top of that, your overall evaluation should stand on its own and not rely on knowing about the cars you decide to compare it with. This car isn't mid. That's an insult and complete nonsense

[@AbdulWahab99999]

​@stefan514 agreed on your opinion, sometimes he is just biased towards some car

[@MuddyCupzz]

I can agree, this isn't the fastest out of its competition. But that wasn't what I was meaning. I'm just saying 4.9 isn't a slow time tbh. That's faster that some sedans

[@hdudhehdhd2222]

@@stefan514no you totally should compare, these 3 companies are constantly in competition and make cars to compete with their competitors respective models. This car’s primary competitors are better in almost every way, so that makes it pretty mid in the overall scale of new German SUVs.

[@mtacke]

Sorry but the only negative thing you mentioned is the “slow“ acceleration of 4.9s from 0-60. I hear you that it‘s slower than some BMW/Audi competitor, but the fact that everything else about this car seems to be positive and you come to the overall conclusion that the car is ”mid“ shows that you put way too much weight on the 0-60 in your overall assessment. This is one among many things that potential buyers care about, especially since the typical luxury Mercedes SUV probably gets launched about 10 times in its life span. Interior quality is something you feel every day. I think you might want to rethink the priorities of your criteria and tailor them more towards a typical buyer.
