- This is the all-new Mercedes GLS! When it comes to luxurious SUVs, Mercedes says it doesn’t get much better than this, calling the GLS the “S-Class of SUVs”. But does the GLS live up to the class-leading standard set by the saloon, and does it offer good enough competition to the BMW X7? Join Mat for his latest review to find out!

A car that tells you how to offroad.
What a time we live in
Beautiful time in terms of technology
@A real bisexual petrol-head Well,thats retarded thing to say.What real man doesnt love to do some offroading?
The Catmother I read that in clarkson’s voice
A real bisexual petrol-head yeah maybe if you offroad in a fucking vauxhall corsa but not in a land cruiser designed for offroad...
@A real bisexual petrol-head Says guy whos profile name has "bisexual" in it.Ofcourse nobody normal would offroad 100k Range Rover or Merc but who wouldnt offorad 3000$ jeep?
That suspension tech of bouncing around can make it quite funny at car parks
Yes shore the airbags are just gonna break right away, haha
Tinha de ser um português a escrever este comentário 😂.
@@TiagoSProducions Pois claro!
I fantasize having that feature and turning it on in dead traffic
Not funny at all when they break in 2 years
The only thing I don’t like about this car is that I can’t afford it.
Same 😂
Same

Nisala Gamage Ican afford it
7:54 when you get a woman on gta san andreas
It is weird because you need to take her green areas like in this video. 😂😂
it was a sheep…..
Hell yeah
Was looking for this comment 😂
D
😂🤣😂😂
The E-Active Body Control costs more than my whole Car 😂
😅😂🤣👍
One tire of that Mercedes cost more then my car
Yes.
It costs like 3 times more than mine..
It costs more than my car, because I don’t own a car.... imma kid
Compare the X7 vs GLS. Anyone agreeing?
Thx all of you guys and gals so much for liking my comment and agreeing. This is the most likes ive ever gotten.
Yes
drag race XD
The whole world agrees lol
Gabriel Cicek yes
@@hoen2009 the drag race should be with 7 passengers in each one
No one is taking their 100k mercedes off roading
Of course, you need a 200k Mercedes G Wagon.
You don't watch any Russian or Arab youtube videos :)
Also no one is taking their 100k+ merc through a car wash. lmao
@@MrShott13 of course not, they have their secretary call the car wash service, they come, take the car , wash it and return it. If you can afford a 100k+ car, you'll already think like a rich person ;)
@The Truth The people that drive offroad on a day to day basis usually own a Toyota , Jeep or a Land rover, because they are cheaper. Most people aren't going to risk damaging their $100k+ luxury SUV.
Hard choice between this and the x7. Too hard I decided I'm getting a vespa 125.
Dude the Mercedes has bounce control that is all you nead to know.
tenk 548 it costs 8K as an option thats all you need to know
@@Marcus-wp8zf Whoever is buying it doesn't give a fuck
Deny people do give a fuck. Thats almost 10% of the total price and you dont need it if you go offroad. It is a big difference to spend 90K or 100K. My parents also didnt option it cuz its not that different on a normal road and its too expensive
RpM_Evan congrats its my dream car
Remind me not to buy a used silver GLS ex-press car. The underbody will have seen better days.

Preproduction press cars are not allowed to be resold to the public. VW recently just got in trouble for that... this is the most recent article I can find. www.thedrive.com/news/27410/volkswagen-facing-class-action-lawsuit-for-allegedly-selling-illegal-pre-production-cars-as-cpo
John Vo they should sell them for half price instead of crushing them because many people are poor and that’s money wasted
@@pv______6248 And then the first owner sells the car for normal price and the next owner is in trouble. If you're poor you don't buy a car like this.
Car designer: How big?
Mercedes: *yes*
carwow: But why does it still have fake exhausts?!
@@carwow nope but a GLE with peanut allergy

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 good one
It's been 2 months now, you still there?
3 months, still there man?
It's 2050. Are you still there?
2069. U need to hurry up fam
The bouncing reminds me of GTA San Andreas.
If you know you know 😂😉
Great review Matt, thank you for it...
The idea of reviewing its off-road capabilities is well appreciated. Great job!
Kind regards.
It should have a different interior design, not the same as the GLE
I thought at least they'd put an analogue clock between the vents like in the S class. Typical cost cutting by mimicking GLE Interior
The difference between the regular E and S classes is huge in interior, I dont know why they didnt at least add the different more luxury seats, whats the point of even getting the GLS? It costs more, all this tech will probably be offered on the GLE as well, and you can get a 7 seater GLE for a less price. Dunno what they are aiming with this but feels bad calling this an S level class.
Brutaleon it was the same thing when you compared last gen GLE and GLS, almost the same. I also think that the GLE is is more luxurious compared to normal E.
@@Omgiamsotriggered yet none of you complain that bmw and Audi do the exact same thing. The interiors are exact copy pastes but you don't say a word but god forbid mercedes keep the interiors similar.
@@denziiey so bmw and audi also cost cutt by your logic.
Does Matt Watson pass the Carwow stick of truth test?
🤔🤔🤔
Only from the back ...
LMFAO
L.J Turner yep back, belly button and top
OMG
Hey Matt, I have seen this video 8 times already and again now. Love it and love your work. Great skills, deffo you're a great decent man! Keep up ! Thanks !
Just found your reviews. Love how you test interior capacity. Definitely something I will greatly consider in purchasing my next vehicle. With three kids, two of those in car seats, plus visitors, I like to make sure we have adequate room. I’m not looking for a minivan since we usually hold on to cars for about 10 years. I hope you review the Navigator and other full size SUV’s soon.
What can did you go for we are looking for a 7 seater due to 4 children all in car seats
Did you buy it?
The interior doesn't give me the vibe that other Mercedes cars do!
U gotta pay extra for the luxury pack
that's as base as it gets. even the leather is entry level.
The interior is fine to me. However, the rectangular air vents look a little dated compared to the wind turbine air vents in the A-Class and the CLS.
The dash seems to be designed by an eight year old
@@sayankumardas2911 not at all
do ultimate luxury suv comparsion
X7 VS GLS VS BENTAYGA VS CULLINAN
to see how half or thrid price luxury suv compare to the most expensive
Lol, Bentayga and Cullinan are kind of on another level when it comes to price and luxury.
HiddenWen did you read his comment?
@@HiddenWen yeah, but the upcoming Maybach SUV (Maybach Ultimate Luxury) will smoke both of them... A better comparison would be the Mercedes - Maybach GLS 650, which will also be available soon.
@@nik7bkh965 Didn't know Maybach is also coming out with an SUV. Everyone is coming out with SUVs.
@@HiddenWen
All the school run mums are jumping on the SUVs
The first carwow video that I watched from the start to the end without skipping a second. 👍👍👍Well done!
Mat you are the coolest car reviewer right now in the internet with a great taste of humour and that’s what makes you special compared to other channels...My dream Car is a G-wagon AMG and hope one day I could get one...however I’m 30 years with not a lot of money I hope this doesn’t stays a dream and one day become reality...continue the great work we all support you!
I can already see the videos 10 years from now on “How to replace your used 2020 GLS suspension”
Speed Equipment why would you replace it? Its the best suspension evr
10 years? I give it 1 year past warranty.
@@petternilsson1155 ohh you aren't aware of the air suspensions especially of mercs, are you??
Just like you replace shocks you also need to replace this. What makes people think it's maintenance free? Huh? If you want the best ride you pay for it.
@@SDav21 just coz you paid once for something better, it doesn't mean in future you'll be able to pay for it especially when someone buys it used, they'll have to deal with it
You don't get the jiggy jiggy mode with the X7, clearly this is a winner!
You dont buy a CAR for Jiggy jiggy mode
@@azharsayyed776 You CAN buy the car with that kind of option, but BMW doesn't offer it!
@@azharsayyed776 You've been buying cars for the wrong reasons then.
I prefer Mercedes Benz but the interior of the X7 is clearly superior; however, the GLS does win in driving technology.
@@Michael-zn2jc I respect your opinion, to me all BMW exterior and interior designs are the same looking for all Series. I figured to go with Mercedes after all.
Great review as always Mat. The off road bit was impressive! Great car!!
thank you soooooo much.matt for this awesome review no one could make excitement and full of information video like you
Can you do head 2 head between bmw x7 and Mercedes GLS
If talking about SUVs, one should remember Lexus LX570, and Toyota Land Cruisers too. Would love to see the reviews of both of them.
Shahrukh Shaikh they haven’t been updated in a while when there update he’ll probably review them
@@CoolizBrown sounds good
Yeah bro, they'll last for more than a decade if taken care of. They're almost invincible.
@@ApolloGP exactly :D
They do last 10-20 years.... but that horrible interior design from 2002 and an infotainment from 2000 as well just don’t feel good to me
I don't know if it's because I've been away from the channel for a while but that was the best review I've seen in ages, and very little to do with the car. I had to pause to laugh at '...and poking it with a stick' in to that cut away of Matt...poking it with a stick! The humour on the channel is brilliant, keeps me coming back.
This guy is seriously good and honestly ... One of the best car reviewers out there
Amazing tech and all but...it almost broke 2 times during a review in a controlled environment
flashxcate nah, its actually protecting itself
Down with fake exhaust. Pass the message to Audi as well.
Mate bmw and audi and merc are all doing it
@@porschet5898 show me one bmw with fake exhaust
Tehmace hahahaha, 760li, not only that but since 2015 they are using speakers as engine sounds lololol
@@porschet5898 it got fake surroundings but very real exhaust inside, so they're actuall not fake, about sound from speakers, that is indeed quite sad
If you equip the GLS with 3D high end burmester then you wont have fake exhaust. Only the base line speaker gets fake exhaust.
Waiting for Matt to upload his depth review video of the Q7 facelift 🙌🏽😊
In the first 3 minutes they’ve used like only 3 footages played again and again
Great review Mat! The technology offered in the GLS compared to a luxury car from 10 years ago is incredible. I just need a lottery win so I can go and put my order in for a 400d GLS.
Do a video bmw X7 vs mercedes GLS
One day... ;)
@@carwow Thanks man
Vs Q8
@@quijr816 Q8 is a coupe suv and these are big suvs
Quirinus Jr Q8 will compete with the new 2020 x6 ;)
Amazing vid! One of the best you've done!
Hi Mat you do a wonderful job with a review. It’s interesting, informative and bit of a fun.
Cheer’s
Andy
Love the vids from Australia great reviews and drag races
7:55 I think of some funny situations you could make with this option hahaha
Love it
It is result of stick of truth test. GLS likes it.
Lllloovee it!!!! One of the most superior SUVs I've ever heard of, love Matt's reviews and also not to forget the stick poke test🤣🤣
The one E-Active Body Control costs more than my honda pilot 2005
Mat is the best car reviewer on TH-cam right now! Good Job!
Plz Bmw x7 offroad
That topgear-esque intro is very cool
Your reviews are getting better and better!
Keep workin those guns Mat 💪🏼
These car washes in America are like the Paint and Spray in GTA.... Mat goes into the car wash with a red GLS, then in the next scene he is parking the trailer with a grey GLS 🤣
this episode is one of the best. Mr Wattson is truly entertaining on this one!
Between this gls and the expedition to tow a yacht two or three times a week?
A review of the new GLS on Autocar mentioned that the E-Active Body Control system won’t be offered in the UK, mentioning that the EABC is “not being offered on right-hand-drive cars yet”.
Why not? Why isn’t the EABC available for right hand drive cars yet?
The off road car dancing made me laughing so much 💕🤣🤣🤣 : hey what’s happening there ???
I had same problem with 3rd row in my gl350d 2014 . Very nice car n review. ❤ from India
nice review :)
How does the augmented reality satnav works by night ? thanks
The paint is gorgeous.
Your style of presentation perhaps makes this channel one of my favourite. Please do add the CAR vital specs, model variations and price indications in the video description if possible. Thanks.
I love the stick tests
That car is worth every penny for the laughs it can provide you and your family looking at puzzled shoppers watching your car *bounce* at the IKEA parking lot.
Its an option though
Please Carwow when you compare it to the X7, bring a GLA or a GLC to illustrate their size
The X7 is better than an GLS or a GLA or a GLE or an s class. The GLS is not very good but the GLA and the GLE aren't better than it.
Riccardo Bertamini bruh sclass stomps on x7 and seven series
@@riccardobertamini8119 I love your detailed explanation as to why the X7 is supposedly better... "Its better". Alright buddy u tell em
16:04 well done video editor that made me laugh hard
I wanted to try the bounce mode thing in the 2021 GLS AMG 63 4matic+. I DONE IT.
Best dept video ever seen👍👍
45 seconds after uploading I liked the video... like anyone else would
Correct answer!
Indeed.
Is there a better person than Mat for reviewing Cars?
I am waiting!!!
Chris Harris
Doug demouro
Nah he is the best at this current time
Matt, it would be great if u could talk and review about the Lighting systems (interior and exterior lights of a night version) of all the vehicles which u review ...
Mercedes is the only one that still does actual Off-roading!!!
Justice Warrior land Rover also
@@sebastianelmqvist7071
"Did"
Have you seen the absolutely pathetic Defender replacement??
Justice Warrior no, but land Rover still has a lot of good cars for offroading
Have you seen toyota LAND CRUISER's offroading?
Are you dumb? Have you heard of a Land Cruiser?
"Mat, stop poking my face with stick!!"
"These airvents are real!"
Dame this SUV is perfect for a person that loves going off road and on road it is a masterpiece 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
To accelerate more steadily, curl your toes instead of pressing with your foot. It will give you a more even and sure pedal press and hold. Just a little tip I picked up from track days. Hope it helps
I love how this channel is like the new Top Gear.
Only, Matt can Make Us Laugh While Reviewing Any Car. :)
The 8-cylinder variant looks a whole lot better than the less powerful ones. Great video Carwow!
Thanks!
carwow. Where’s my reply, just kidding i didn’t comment because I’m just speechless the quality of your reviews! Hello from Utah! MB should definitely ditch the fake vents.
Love your videos!
Do a review on the Infinity QX80 2019 my mom has one and it’s fast you can take turns like a car and it is spacious
Car is going down a steep hill, on a very uneven, rocky dirt road.
Mercedes: Please accelerate.
Dafuq?! How can that be a good idea??
Is this a troll question or have you never been off roading in your life?
@FERNANDO Why is it so? I genuinely wanna know.
I’m glad I’ve placed my preorder this facelift is definitely improved and gorgeous!
Endorion I’m sure you did ;)
@@lordtesco I sure did! I had to preorder via a local dealer not online since it's isn't available.
Endorion from your channel you seem quite young, I doubt you’d have the ability too drive a car or at least one that size
@@lordtesco Oh haha, you're assuming from my channel. Those videos I've managed to make money from and along with a successful restaurant that I work with my family I've managed to save a lot. I was going to get the current gen 2018 GLS, but once I was told that a 2020 facelift version may come I was really hyped and didn't disappoint. Therefore, this will the last second vehicle I'll ever own since soon my brother will be getting his license I need a vehicle soon.
Endorion Nice! Have fun with it :D
Yes I do agree
I'm starting to realize that Matt could've easily substituted for actor Shaun Evans, in the ITV series Endeavour.
I love how he built a large basketball pyramid just to give a 3 second presentation of what a capacity of 2400 liter looks like.
i'm pretty sure Mercedes had builded that for him
I wouldn’t want to buy one of those second hand after that lol
I loved this car in videos but,
We took my Mum’s (2016) GLC in for a service and then we looked around this car. I’m (a kid) 135cm tall and the top of my head just about reached the side mirrors, and couldn’t be seen out the back window!
It’s quite big!
But other than that it’s lovely 😍.
mercedes suv able to go off road, and you actually did show it to us? splendid! )))
Waited for this video...
And finally its here😄
Enjoy!
carwow hi why you didn’t take about lexus LX570 luxury SUV we are waiting for it ? Please
@@carwow Thanks guys for the video..
Ur doing great👍👍
Netflix: are you still watching?
Someone’s daughter:
8:10
Lol
subbed great stuff bro.
Mate, I loved the video. I gotta say though, you didn’t answer the title of the video or say your personal opinion! do you think it’s better than the X7? And why?
Can you have it bounce up and down when it is turned off and locked? Would be funny to leave it on your driveway like that.
Great Luxury SUV. My one criticism is the air suspension should be optional rather than standard as air suspensions always eventually fail and are horrendously expensive to repair
Very good review yes im a subscriber but need more data on the different engines and what trailer weights can you help?
My trailer with boat is between 7000lbs and 7500lbs
Wow what a great car review! This is the car my mother is in the process of buying
I imagine the top spec interior trim would be impressive and more expensive, maybe S-Class worthy?
14:56 caught me by surprise, i laughed too hard
shooting at hill's ......just mind blowing to me sir
These videos are all wonderful but is it possible for you to do a drag race or review on a Jag XF-R or something. I really like your opinions and would like to see how it compares to the audi, merc, bmw competitions. Thanks
What a beast. The King of every road.
14:40, respect to truck drivers for their skills
Finally you did a GLS video
Howdy, great review as always!😸😻😸
