- The new Mercedes GLA get's a touch SUV look, but under the skin it's based upon the A-Class. So can the GLA compete in an already stacked class of premium small SUVs? Find out all my thoughts and more in this in-depth video review.
Some of you keen viewers might've noticed a small contradiction - not every GLA is equipped as standard with all-wheel drive as stated at the start of the video. If you noticed this error... congratulations, you passed the test.

Sorry we forgot to explain the Easter egg in the video. It was the song the song 'The Bends' by Radiohead on my phone in the glovebox at 2.20. If you speak with a midland accent like mine and you say 'Bends' - it sounds the same as 'Benz'! Geddit? 'Baby I've got the Benz" as Thom Yorke once sang.
Thanks for clarification! I noticed Radiohead on the phone but couldn't figure out what it meant.
matt why oh why don't you love deutsch manual box their good got damn.
Is your accent Dudley?
What...................?

The only reason I watch carwow is because of Sir Mat Watson.
Lord Sir Matthew Watson
OSV channel is more professional. This channel is great if you like laughing at things that are not remotely amusing.
Quick correction folks: not every GLA is equipped with all-wheel drive as standard! The GLA 200 d is offered with a choice of front and all-wheel drive. Needless to say I'll be going to bed without my dinner tonight.
carwow I did hear you say the 200d was only 2wd but available as 4wd as an option in the review, Mat. Bit of a slip, did you self-flagellate too?
please do a review of the lamborghini huracan
carwow
I think you did say that.
Also IMO the only point of car of this type is AWD / 4WD.
This is ridiculous. Unsubscribed, and reported the video for inciting to terrorism.
Derek Finnegan based on his frequent sexual innuendos I wouldn't be surprised if he'd be into that ^_^

Why would you make an infotainment system that runs at 5fps
Are you gonna need 4WD in this car? ... well I live in Canada, so yes yes yes I do.
I can agree, us Canadians need 4x4 And more cargo room for *ahem* beer
The bad points and good points at the end is perfect and very well done.
Guys does anyone know a site with which I can save on average 3 thousand 6 hundred pounds when buying a new car?
+Fusay34 would it be.... carwow? I bet it is carwow.
Thank you very much, I'll have a look.
And you'll probably get a price you are confident "in" (not "with"). 😉
It amazes me how many models this company put out all at once. Just here in Canada on the Mercedes site there are no less than... 25 different models (each with their own options), plus two hybrids. I wonder how many engineering departments they have, to put out such production, not to mention the manufacturing facilities ?
Was really good to watch and very engaging, so thanks!
The boot almost hit Mat in the head at 0:53 - brings a whole new dimension to the term "facesitting".
Awesome review, thanks!
Thanks for the review!
Really cool car with a great off-road skills and enough space for even 6.3 man on the rear. One of the best 2.0 litre turbocharged engine. Thanks for review!
Plz do the Q3 and X1 as well!!!
Any chance you can review the 2017 mini Cooper 5 door? I like your insight and honest opinion
Nice review, looking forward to the Alfa Romeo Giulia QV review on this channel !
love your videos!!
Faceliftet model due this month!
Hi Matt...what about the Mercedes GCL Coupé?!? I'd like to watch a description of this as well! :)
How reliable is this car? In terms of upkeep and maintenance. My 2008 XC90 has been giving me endless trouble lately, and im really considering this car, but I don't want to get stuck with another garage queen.
Absolutely luv ur reviews but you are reviewing a 2018 version with a 66 plate!!
Could you review the new Vauxhall Mokka X? There is a distinct lack of them on youtube.
HI Mat, what do you think of the GLA45. Haven't seen you review that one
Mat, no need to be 6 ft tall, you are super desirable as is
you forget to say no homo
i dont think he did 😳
Well, I can't disagree with you.
Gay
Mat....i m.from.india....i m a great fan of u.......i have seen almost each and every review given by u....great job sir...u r so lucky ....
Is this a 2018 model as in the description? Or a 2016 model as on the registration number?
Hello love your videos. Would appreciate if you did the glc coupe
Great vid!
Drove it today. Looks great from outside, but you feel stuffy inside. No visibility on the rear or sides.
This looks like a 2017 and not a 2018 which received a refresh. Here is one I just reviewed: th-cam.com/video/kPAuX6-Bw-Q/w-d-xo.html
Hi if anyone can help me I have a 2016 Mercedes GLA 250 and I’m trying to activate the beep noise when you lock the doors and I can’t figure out how and there are no videos on it so if anyone knows can you please reply.
Got the GLA and it’s awesome
another wonderful review. thanks. I know what not to buy
I'm hoping when you can you will do a review on the 45 (GLA45)
Ian Enciso they wont review the same car (even with a different engine) twice within the same year
LOOKS Beautiful !
Is it quite fast?
thank you for this info, was going to go and buy this car new from shop but now after seeing this vid, ill do my home work on something else.
Nice can you do a review on the Honda insight matt i haven't seen anyone do a review in England
Does it have parking sensors that show on main screen like audi and golf ?
We really need info on reliability and how good the dealer network might treat you in the event of a problem (Mercedes score VERY low in that regard), which should be a big factor in how good the car scores as compared to its rivals. Thanks - great review otherwise ;-)
I thought the new GLA facelift will be introduced on the 9th of January, at NAIAS - or am I wrong?
Great vid btw!🙌🏻
Mat Watson: you're one of the best. You're so good at making boring cars exciting.
I've been seeing loads of these recently. Looks like people love the looks and street presence. I like it but would rather have a GLC over this.
Does it have space for a full spare?
Do a review on the Ford Focus ST
I would love to see you review the Alfa Romeo Giulia, VW Jetta, and the Skoda Octavia RS
Please do a Merc Cla review
Thank you for this review, currently in a Toyota Tundra TRD Pro, I like off road vehicles but when it comes time for tight parking lots it is a no go for me. The TRD Pro is fun and nice while driving around but I need to be able to park as well so this little Mercedes seems to fit the bill, small, compact, and off road capable enough for me.
5:58 Yeah until you open the door!
Excellent channel
hi Mat, will you be reviewing the new 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250?
Mat! Please review the Maserati Levante and Range Rover Sports soon!! :D
Game Mix my parents have the Levante!💕👼🏼 The only thing is the seats in the back row feel kind of cheap😢 Porsche seats feel better!
Every time I look at a new car I do the car wow flick test. It really has made me ocd when it comes to looking at the interiors.
You need review a CLA Shootingbrake
Looks nice.
Nice sweater tommy
Wow cool video!!
Sam Kleizen you didn't even watch it
The fact that you like cars and Radiohead is enough for me to subscribe!
The Bends is a beautifull album. When you find a car that has the best sound system ever, we should listen to The Bends and get baked. x)
Cheers!
💘 my 2017 GLA...This was my birthday 🎁 last October...Built mines myself special made...Love it💕💕💕
Is the glad more spacious inside
Isn't Mercedes bringing refreshed GLA to Detroit? So this review will be out of date in literally 2 days! (I mean it will still be a 2017 GLA review because Mercedes will probably sell redesigned car as 2018 GLA.)
thormaster06
Redesign car usually goes on sale very soon so this is outdated....
Please do one for the new jaguar xj
Do the GLC43 Amg
Can anyone help me please? I just purchased a 68 plate GLA. Bluetooth connects to my Samsung Galaxy S9 but when i make calls the person on the other end of the phone can't hear me but I can hear them? Any suggestions please?
i like your review
Nice car would buy
Saw one beside an first gen 308, and the 308 is taller?!?? Even tho its closer to the ground.
Its very goodlooking tho, but hate the oldish interior and the androidtablet glued on.
I’d rather pick a xc40.
I can't get over the iPad 1st gen look of the dash unit. Tragic design flaw afflicting that entire generation of Mercedes.
i like that the GLA's are so DAMN cute
Plz review the bmw x1
The best car review channel ever....Matt Watson the best..
This car is ultra smart
Please review a Touareg ! :D
do the glc coupe
the rear seats fold totally flat!!!
unless you camera angle was off,the 'flat' rear seats have a slope you could use a set of ski's on.
ive been asking myself this for a while now, everytime you guys test a mercedes benz and talk about their not so good infotainment system, why dont you ever mention their voice controls or how that works in comparison to other manufacturers??
Is it quite Fun to drive or fast ?
This mate should be working in the Top gear tv show
Why work on salary when yoj can be your own boss. He left carbuyer to start carwow
Weren't they going to revamp the GLA for 2017 or this is it and it looks just the same?
PLEASE REVIEW CLA!!!!
What is the price ?
My mom bought my fam one and I am happy but the colour is white and it has the wheels upgraded and the inside is upgraded
i like the looks, the sportiness it inspires, but i also dont like some of its flaws !!!
The Infinity QX30 is the Mercedes GLA sister car. The GLA is based on the CLA.
One of my friends has one of these cars. But every time i get into the front passenger seat i always bang my head.
Next Friday I will pick my first Mercedes-Benz’s
I go for GLA 220 AMG Line 4matic can’t wait!!
bienio11 how’s handling man? Got the same to drive for some days and really feels like Matt said: unclear
They should add just one more logo on the front.
Hi ive just ordered this GLA 2017 200 amg auto. ONLY thibg i dont like about it is the interior is like a boys car. Why cant they have more options for nicer interiors than dingy black and red stitching. Girls r sporty too ! And i have seen many videos with nice interiors which i assume r only available on the 4matic option ?
umm hudhayfa i have gla 45 amg and it has wood interior it was an option that costed alot of money
I am so fond of you Matt not my usual type but I reckon a beer with you and I don't mind leaving it at the table unattended. thanks for the review.
Do the review of audi a3 2018 and also the a4 2018
Please
no 360 camera?
No spare tyre ?
I love the narrow windows, I'd love more manufacturers doing that.
Like the Volvo V40
I like the GLA but I think it had an ugly rear end before it had the facelift, I recently saw a GLA45 AMG and it looked beautiful
cannot wait for the facelift
It will be a modest facelift, Should be close to the updated A Class with the addition of some All Terrain cosmetics from the new E.
I liked this video solely for the Radiohead reference!
How would you rate it against the Audi Q2
5:10. Didn't you say that the GLA comes with 4WD as standard?
The 250 I am driving does - later I say the 200d has fwd
how many people worry about how big the glove box is? and if the pockets hold a litre bottle of water?
It's just a snappy way of comparing the size of storage areas between cars. Plenty of people would notice if they weren't there, so worth testing.
