Well, comparing to the other mercedes factories in germany, this factory seems like a slaughterhouse. No wonder why american mercedes cars have so much issues especially the SUVs. Unfortunately I only drive Mercedes and only SUVs. Oh well it is what it is.
My new 2021 AMG GLE 53 is assembled in Alabama. Took four full months to build it and deliver it to my dealer. I custom ordered it on Jan 5, 2021, getting delivery tomorrow on May 7th.
@@JohnUSA7 That's amazing! I bet you're excited! I custom ordered my GLC 43 in early March and it's slated to come late June(can't come soon enough). Turns out the GLC's are made in Germany, so I might end up waiting a tad longer since it has to be out on a boat for 20+ days. Were you able to keep track of your cars status during the whole process?
Anyone knows how long does it take to completely build a car at this Alabama plant? My special order went into production on April 1st. When I asked my dealer what is expected delivery time for my new Mercedes 2021 AMG GLE 53 he said end of April. I think that is too long and I expect a faster delivery, even with transportation time from Alabama to Colorado.
My 2021 AMG GLE 53 COUPE took exactly four months from ordering to delivery. The MSRP was a little over $92K. almost fully loaded, I paid $89K. When I picked it up my salesman told me that my car now will sell for over $100K. Some other dealers are even asking for $110 and more. I bought (ordered) it just in time I guess.
LauraNYC They just have to follow German instructions step by step. German know-how and technology. Just using American labour. You can relax. The world’s best automobile being built ok
I have ordered a GLE450, delivery june-21🍾. My current ML350 from 2014 has now run 176000 km with no(zero) issues. It’s not whereabouts a car is built, it’s how. And Well keep the ML in the family😉
I love Mercedes...Best car in the world always..
03:11 What is that melody in the background? Isn't that a cartoon tune? Why is it playing in the factory?
That is to let the line leads know the line is stopped

The GLC is made in India, for the yanks that is.
@@Ce0ammer i hope youre wrong on that one. I would never buy one eve if they run a bogo sale 🤣
It is mercedes why should it be different whether it is built in the US or Germany. The standards should be the same.
I know they do only SUV’s in Alabama, but do they assemble the AMG versions of the GL there?

@@JohnUSA7 do they really take four month to build. The wait time is not the build time.
And I just bought a $67,000 vehicle made by Americans?
Nice
Mercedes mucho ánimo

Interesting but lacking 😕
German engineered and American 🇺🇸 built. More American parts than most vehicles made by GM, Ford or Chrysler.

Always Mercedes...

Oh God it’s American made ? 🤦🏻♀️😭 not cool 90K$ trucks could’ve been made in Germany 🇩🇪 😭😤 !!!!!!!!!
They now make the Maybach SUV in Alabama too. It's the most expensive automobile made in America.
