I used to get irritated with all the nasty comments regarding luxury and high performance vehicles. But then I had to realize that most are broke, jealous and hate those who can afford such vehicles. Not to mention, the fan base loves $30-45k work trucks and SUVs.
Wow! What a beast. One thing though, I don't understand why people are saying that this vehicle, or any vehicle like this won't last a long time. In reality, any vehicle can be reliable, as long as they are maintained properly. I think the problem is that some people don't maintain their vehicles very well. So please, do not blame Mercedes, or any automaker for the problems with the vehicles.
Ryan 64209 yes it’s technically a grand Cherokee hellcat but Jeep calls it a track hawk and it just says Jeep on the steering wheel bruh JEEP DO YOU KNOW WHATS UNDER THE HOOD AND YOU PUT A BASIC STEERING WHEEL?
Mono blocks are a cool throwback. Just wish they were a smaller diameter. The Land Cruiser reference was on point. To my eye, especially from the back, this thing evokes the Land Cruiser. It's fun to see Mercedes taking the lead in a segment.
Commenter in a previous video tells Andre that Tommy is the one who is supposed to present vehicles that aren't obtainable. One hour later Tommy presents a really high end expensive vehicle lol
@@TFLnow I wasn't saying he shouldn't. I thought it was funny that I read that comment on another video and then watch tommy present a more expensive more unobtainable vehicle. The irony lol
the 48v system is pure garbage and all german manufacturers basically uses it, from vw to audi to porsche , mercedes, why not make a plugin hybrid with at least 100 miles range?! and use alumium for light weight body
@@alanmay7929 I've said for a long time plug ins or range extenders are the way to go at the moment. Batteries are a pain to make in bulk, use a load of resources and have weight/packaging issues when they're large. Internal combustion isn't clean enough. So why not use a battery just large enough to do most of the work on electric and have an engine to carry on for the times its not enough? Split one Tesla sized battery into three or four and you could do 80% of the driving in four cars for the same resources. Plug ins usually come with other benefits too like pre-heating, silent running in traffic, and a decent power bump thanks to having another motor in there. This thing could have run the 350e system with a larger battery and got 30-50 miles ev with a 100hp+ bump in power to go with it. Thats just better and at this price really needs to be.
Nice wheels if they can just mill in some slots/holes in big ol hunk of a plate in the wheel, u know for weight saving n ventilation sake. What do I know. How heavy are wheels?
The seats in the front look awesome and super comfy but in the rear they are just a power ajusted bench. There are no extended corners and you can easily slide around.
Claimed for this vehicle is 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds and has run as low as 3.7 seconds, depends on elevation, temperature, road surface and tire warmth.
i love the throwback wheels.i just got a 2020 g class i would have got the gl but the tech was 2 gens behind... so maybe aftermarket in a few years. i love it.
Imagine you are sitting in the third row when the gear breaks down and you literrally have to crawl out somehow. Why they did not supply a mechanical way of getting out? Even Tesla has unlocking mechanical handle for doors if the battery is out.
p I’ve had an ML 320 CDI it’s a tank there were barely engine problems if it had problems it was just small electrical things Mercedes has average reliability, people think it’s just bad. Average is fine when ur getting soo much luxury
Hi Tommy 🙂. Looking at your surroundings for this press review, it looks like you're out in Palm Springs, Las Vegas, or somewhere in Arizona. Anyhow, the seats look like they feel incredibly comfortable. How speakers and watts does the Burmester audio system have on the GLS63?
4matic is a great AWD system. 4matic+ is a permanent 4WD system. And this vehicle is very fast. It may even get a low range. Technology has come so far. 4WD vehicles are faster than a lot of sports cars now.
You say it's BIG. Compared to what? The suburban and the Expedition are the Largest SUVs on the market and the 21 Suburban is Four inches longer than the current model......Oh and those wheels are a Deal breaker.
Doubtful! Trackhawk will run circles around this MB plus last longer while much cheaper to maintain. I'm looking to take delivery of new leftover 19 Trackhawk in black this wk! #superSUV
All these "monsters" currently being reviewed on TFL, it's like the Bugler scene played by Peter Seller in the movie "The party". Guys please give us a competitive analysis of 5 people haulers that get more than 50MPG, these are the vehicles that the average family need and are trying to afford. These 15-20MPG last gasp ICE attempts at attracting buyers are ridiculous.
There is no European nor American SUV that will outperform Toyota’s Land Cruiser, in its field. No one needs so much power nor those astonishing top speeds; no one will travel that fast in our highways not to speak of off-road...
Yes there is a reason to have that much power. Ppl want it. It's fun. It's not all about top speed. I didn't think my wife would love our 600hp Range Rover but she absolutely loves the endless power it has.
Love the car, but one thing I really must point out: *THOSE RIMS LOOK DISGUSTING, no offense.* *BMW's stupid 2k20 onwards kidney grilles are even worse, double no offense.*
Those wheels work very well on an early 90’s e class. It was fitting. Big chunky wheel on a very boxy car. New smooth lined vehicles don’t look good with them in my opinion. It is like putting a set of craigers on an 812 Superfast. It doesn’t fit. Give me the split 5 spoke 22’s on the GLS 580 instead.
Old school AMG wheels
they look absolutely fantastic
Nostalgic wheels on their first AMG GLS! Well done Merc
Air Spacelord really? Their first AMG GLS? Are you dumb or stupid?
I feel pretty catfished that this was an AMG review and there was no exhaust clip
@J Knox they look alot worse than their profile pictures. basically you got tricked.
I'm sensing this would get a very high Doug score. Fast, cool, comfortable and practical.
Wish he'd review it!!
THOSE WHEELS 🔥🔥🔥🔥 AND THEY EASY TO CLEAN! Perfection!!
They are hard to clean, how do you think to clean inside of the wheel without taking it off 🤦♂️
KM Gaming im asking you how can you clean inside od the wheel, not spokes😂
Stef 44 lol
Lazy
U high
1:31 How large they are? this is 23 inch wheels.

Hats off to Mercedes for going back to their roots with those fantastic wheels 👍🏼👍🏼😎😎
Cool it comes with 4 spare tires, take that BMW.
dylan chanel LOL
I’m not commenting now since it isn’t possible to say something more clever and funny. Absolutely hilarious.
dylan chanel the wheels aren’t that ugly c’mon
@@whitemailprivilege2830 ummmm IDK they look weird but it's fine if you like it, everyone have different taste

no exhaust sound for an amg review?
I don’t care what people are saying about the wheels, I think they are badass
Can you afford a set of tires tho that's the real question

Wait for the Durango Hellcat
Those are kind the amg rims back in 90s
I love ❤️ em
Here comes the hellcat Durango.
Yeah Americans can’t build cars at all
comparing apples and oranges
@@SM-1010 well they obviously built somthing 🤷♂️ people drive American cars alot
@@garretts5507 Cus they have big engines for dirtcheap
It has power but no high-tech and no luxury.. and its no status symbol
Its a nice Big car...they are sure getting crazy with all that hi tech stuff..thanks for the video Tommy
Bringing back the AMG monoblock awesome
Does this have soft close doors?
For some reason i only like those monoblock design on the Maybachs
I love those wheels
Mono blocks are a cool throwback. Just wish they were a smaller diameter. The Land Cruiser reference was on point. To my eye, especially from the back, this thing evokes the Land Cruiser. It's fun to see Mercedes taking the lead in a segment.
Congrats on 200k
Is this same engine as glc63 engine?

There is no way you will ever notice a 48v system in a 2.5t truck and those wheels are an abomination. Apart from that it's nice.

Why does this GLS have the GLE startup animation? 6:01
It doesn't
pre production model probably
Basketball 🏀 sized grill emblem 👍🏻 matches the huge rims
Oh my god, I wanna own one of these one day
Dem wheels tho😍😍😍
Bro u missed showing the quad exhost???
325 width tires?
Old school monobloc wheels👍🔥🔥🔥⚡️⚡️⚡️
This vehicle is perfect when you're always late and need to get the kids to soccer practice on time!
IT'S A BEAST 🔥🔥🔥
Do the front seat side boosters adjust like the s63 when taking turns?
Scott bolsters or boosters?🤔
christopher inganji bolsters. Autocorrect ...
The seats in the front look awesome and super comfy but in the rear they are just a power ajusted bench. There are no extended corners and you can easily slide around.
HOW DID YOU KNOW I HAVE A SLOW SPORTS CAR?
Btw, What’s happening with the truck the guy have to you guys to auction off ?
more videos coming soon!
If I get my hands on this, I’m painting it in Smokey and the Bandit colors

Haha im glad you addressed the wheels. I love some older car styling and carrying over older styling can be cool but some trends died for a reason...
this car would be appropriate for you channel name!
@@TFLnow Haha indeed! Love your channel, it was definitely part of the inspiration to create my own. Keep up the fantastic work! You all rock!
lov to rock this vehicle .. hits all the fine points of having such a cool vehicle..
I think these wheels looks really good in the big car
The best stylish wheel
Ultimate soccer mom car. When you buy Brembo brakes, but can't see them...

I love those wheels and on the amg gt 4 door
Amazing
The mono blocks are back, hooray!
What if the passenger in the 3rd row messes with the buttons and folds me in the seat
Those buttons only work if the rear doors are open
I want to buy one of those this weekend... I wonder about the price...
Love the wheels
Faster then sports car.
60k Corvette has enter the chat.
optimus prime corvette is visable in the rear mirror
I love to look at this, but I'd never buy one. I'm afraid of the maintenance after the Warranty.
In this case, leasing would be a better option.
You can always purchase warranties that’s what I did for my e class
@@SM-1010, I love the cars but I am afraid of the maintenance. You have an E-class. The E-class is the most reliable of all Mercedes.

The GLS is a crossover? Given its size I thought it was a full on suv

IN GLS 63 configuration the toque converte is replaced by a multi clutch
Anti COVID machine..the best or nothing..I will save my money 💰 to get this..👍✊🏻💪🚗..the future of Mercedes Benz..
It’s mentioned that the engine is 4.4ltr, but this is wrong. The new 2020 GLS63 AMG has 5.5ltr engine, not 4.4ltr.
No exhaust?
Love those wheels but would still go for an x7 m50i

Those old school rims in 23 inches ,,,,, in hood terms """" THATS BUTTER BABY """""
Omg... Tommy, I'm in love.
That things makes me drool
I prefer the dial/scroll wheel. I do not like touch pads on cars.

hell yeah i totally agree with you on that
Are Those rims armoured?? Lol
Talk about your low and slow profile vehicle , where speed is the elephant in the room.....bottom line, Love it....😇😎👍❤
With our great roads here in Colorado (just kidding), how many of those great looking wheels and tires (again just kidding) will you wreck per year?
None if you know how to drive 🤣
**Laughs in Jeep Trackhawk**
Cant really compared the two. I mean ones a jeep and ones a benz.....
@@DrivenHard yeah, can't compare both vehicles, they're not even the same size. But the trackhawk has at least 100HP more though.

Ditch the monoblock wheels. Can't see the massive rotors and calipers.
