Every other Mercedes review I have seen, they whine about how irritating the linguatronic is because it is interrupting the video all the time. Bjorn turns it off in the settings. Problem solved. Ive been screaming inside "JUST TURN IT OFF" at every reviewer that is complaining about it.
You are the best EV TH-camr! Really nice to see you demonstrate the storage and seating, along with the measurements. I wish you had been at the Model Y event! Not one video gives any idea of its size!! You would have made sure to! SHYYTTTEEE!
The purpose of the hook under the cover in the trunk is to fix the cover on the outer edge of the trunk, so you do not need to hold it all the time while grabbing things out.
This is essentially a plugin hybrid GLC with a bigger battery and electric motors where the ICE engine and fuel tank goes. It would be interesting to see what Mercedes could do it they actually built an EV on its own platform.
Seems to have that typical luxury car problem that has to fit a 6/8 cylinder under the hood. Big outside, small passenger room inside. And what is the cardan tunnel for? Or the huge grill? Or the fake exhaust design? This is not an BEV, how a BEV should be. It is a battery powered GLC.
BUT.... it has everything a normal car has and most consumers want. No quality problems, no service issues. They is a reason they use a known platform. You can avoid most of the small problems with the experience u got with it.
My assumption is that the hump is present in the backseat because it allows for a lower floor for the other two back seat passengers. My impression is that every car with no hump in that back instead has a high floor which results in less legroom for all 3 back passengers.
The 360 view is nearly the same as my leaf+. does it have objects recognition like the leaf (Forward and reverse) like people, garbage can, sidewalk and lamppost?
Awesome video as always. Bjørn, do you consider uploading your vids in 1080p @ 60 fps in the near future? The first 57 secs of the video would look really good @ 60 fps with that background music.
it took you 10 minutes to start the dirty talk hahah! I was wondering in the beginning, "how come björn is not dirtytalking," that's strange! and boom!
At least Mercedes is attempting an EV, but man that software / hardware UI is so old school and seems super laggy too :/ seriously a touchpad interface? Also less clearance than a model 3... is that worth $70k? Will it be on the used market for $15k shortly? I almost feel bad for them...
So, no middle rear seat, because of the shaft. Seating only for 4. Besides, people on the rear seats should be less than 175 cm. And how they call it SUV? More like compact crossover
Great videos, thanks. Any designer that puts the charge port on the passenger side should be fired or at least made to hook up all the employee cars when it's raining.
More from GLC than from EV - that's why the hump, huge bonnet, etc. Mercedes have played cheap and spiced it with premium sound and other luxury glitter 😕
85% percent of the EQC is new. Parts of suspension and interior is from GLC. It is thou put together in the same production line as GLC and C class so they can adjust demand and keep costs down.
@@danieleriksson8685 And do you know what does that mean? Just marketing bullshit. If you can't change one part - the body. You still have the same car (EQC). Just with a battery. 85% mean nothing if you count every single bolt and every single piece of shit as one part.
Thats a lot of buttons and a somewhat small screen. Looks like a regular Mercedes SUV made electric. Good that they are starting to produce some electric cars, but i think that the EQC looks kind of boring and is overhyped.
"If youre sitting in the middle, youre basically riding the shaft."
Thank you, got my giggles in for the day.
As soon as I heard it I had to stop the video and check the comments for funny responses
I was searching EXACTLY for this comment. You made my day !!

10:13 Only Bjorn can comment about riding the shaft in the middle in such an innocent way. Legend!

@28:25 You didn't select the tow hitch view.
Awww shieeeeeeeet, Bjorn is starting to do the cinematography opens and sweeping shots. Music and everything.
I can't believe it either!

7:16 - "Booty master speaker system" LOL. Made my day.
Very informative Nice work👍
@10:10 Riding the shaft. I don't need more than two seats, but the EQC is really nice. Regards to Thomas too.
That hump is a particularly annoying vestige of it's ICE origins.
Yeah, and that lower ground clearance too. EQC is actually GLC. They asembly it at the same line.

Are u goin do a 150000 subscribe special?

+Isaac The hump is because it's based on a fossil GLC platform.
Editing at the start is really good! Well done.
Hi Björn. Will you be in Oslo to make a first video of the VW ID.3 this week?? 🚘🚘
Great job as always very thorough video! Really appreciate when you do these kind of videos of these vehicles we haven't received her yet in the US.
What a beauty. It looks like it was carved from a single block of aluminium.
This Video quality is so much better!
That's one hell of a beautiful EV.
I will only dream about it.
Looks like a car ad at the beginning!
The downscaled 4k to 1080 looks also soooo goodd my friend
It has lights under the front seats, for the back seat passengers.
Nice EV. Most of these are things you see in the gas GLC Mercedes and similar BMW gas vehicles. Burmester is fantastic audio.
The 360 view is nearly the same as my leaf+. does it have objects recognition like the leaf (Forward and reverse) like people, garbage can, sidewalk and lamppost?

+Manuel Bergmann No
150. 000 congratulations!!! 😮👍👍🎉
does the height vary when you power the car up or can it be raised/lowered like with Tesla ??
Does it have camping or pet mode like the Tesla?
nice music at the start
Bjørn, have you tried making a trip with waypoints on your phone with google maps and then send it to the Model 3 and see if it works?
It doesn't work.
Kanskje den ikke godtar kommando fra passasjer fordi ingen sitter på sete?
Most likely.
13:13 You didn't move the seat down, before showing the fist. I normally have do this because I'm 6ft
He doesn't seem too knowledgeable about fisting.
Great car! I can't wait!
Mr. Jeremy Clarkson review of the Mercedes as if it was the Jaguar with that opening scene and beautiful classical music :P
the inside of this car is in another League.
The flat instrument cluster is quite a show stopper.
I'm cracking up at your comments when u start measuring hahaha
12:08 oh.. oh.. yes..
it took you 10 minutes to start the dirty talk hahah! I was wondering in the beginning, "how come björn is not dirtytalking," that's strange! and boom!

The side front vents look similar to the previous ford focus.
Great car

Czekam aż zrobisz test elektrycznego Volkswagena xd

Nice car but I don't like the big plastic part in the rear
Ok

You totally right. GLC for twice as much money.

I believe that was call holding net.
This is a car for not very tall people. Is there a camping mode?
And does it really work?
Well, now I got the confirmation on how bad the 360 view in the Leaf really is...
Nice video
Some American EV maker should make waypoints and voice command a priority. It's only been 6 years?
Another one! Yeah!
I am not so fond of the plastic grille. Great intro music
10:47 LMAO! Totally true :) I give them one week after your kids in the back seat.
German overengineering 😁
I have seen flimsier ones in french cars that were equally overengineered :P
You should learn to discipline your kids.
25:01
And under the hood ? 🤔
09:25
With the linguatronic you can speak normally you don't need to say only keywords. It understands full sentences
+Raphael Takes longer.
It doesn’t work on the passenger side since it recognises that nobody is sitting there.
13:08 shave that panda!!
I hate riding the shaft...
That's an unfortunate design.
Mercedes > Tesla?
Mercedes...pretty advanced...advanced bugs too.
The front is ugly
It looks better with black paint.
F** voice recognition, it's most of the time SHIIIEETTTT
Haha
So much ICE legacy - what a disappointment.
What did you expect , it's a GLC with an electric motor.
So. Difficult
How many small asians can fit in this car?
Sorry Mercedes, you made a car again and not a phone on wheels, because it’s this what counts in this days: software eats hardware
