.............................................................
This is the Mercedes GLB! And we’ll be the first to admit, we’re a bit confused… The new GLB sits below the GLC in the range of Mercedes SUVs, but it’s actually bigger and more practical than the ‘C! Confusing? We’d have to agree.
But given you can pick up this seven-seater from just £34,500, will it make the MUCH bigger GLS obsolete?! Well when you consider that the top-of-the-range petrol engine (the GLB 35) is a 2-litre turbo that produces 306hp and 400Nm, it just might! So is it the smarter choice for your family? You’ll have to stick with Mat to find out!

you the GOAT
Carwow plz pin this comment
@@gabutman6144 Theres already a pinned comment lol... Can't pin two at once haha
I want to see a mega GLA vs GLB vs GLC vs GLE vs GLS test, which could potentially highlight the value and brilliance of the GLB.
The GLB is the most unreliable Mercedes made today.
@@darienlux4735 Sounds like you are speaking from experience, would be great to hear more details.
@@darienlux4735 and why do you say that ? Because it's made in México instead of Germany ?
Thank you so very much for taking the time to describe how it goes over uneven pavement and road bumps. A lot of reviewers completely ignore this detail and it is one of the most significant ones in everyday city driving.
I second that!! Thank you!
Much love to the whole Carwow crew for keeping us entertained during these tough times, you lot are doing the most🕺🏾
They aren't doing the most, health workers are doing the most 🤨

Yad .A when I said y’all are doing the most I meant it in terms of keeping us entertained🙂. Health workers too are doing the most but this is something different.
@@HKA-TRADING ah ok
@Inquire about it how?
at this point,mercedes' lineup is more confusing than elon musk's child's name
Hmmm you are correct
its really not... abces glaglbglcglegls
whats so confusing just add GL in every model line for the SUV version
It's actually the simplest it's been in forever,
Really isn’t
Just love Mat, keeps every review interesting with the right amount of comedy, keep going man❤️
Amazing, thorough review! Just what we were looking for! You convinced us to buy this SUV - you deserve the commission. Thank you!
The UK version is crazy, I just bought this car in the US three months ago (5 seats with no AMG line, has power seats and lumbar and is 221 hp petrol). I test drove the GLC as well, and the tech in the GLB is what convinced me, the ride and cabin noise were pretty much the same. So far I love it, with only one complaint the sun visor doesn't extend, can you believe that, I didn't bother to check cause I thought of course it will, its a Mercedes..but no....
5:41 Despite you spent almost 40k on a Merc, NO power-adjustable seat.
I was thinking the same, it is atrocious and unacceptable.
cost cutting for the sake of tech. sad reality. The new Golf is the same way
So? Less complex seats...
@@JohnyMcNeal You spend that money on a LUXURY SUV then you expect power seats. If i get in after my wife/husband/partner and have to manually adjust the seat everytime i'd be pissed off
And it’s ugly
This actually seems a decent price for once. Also looks nice compared to the usual SUVs
Completely forgot about this car. Had a glk temporarily when I was abroad and loved it. I need to replace my current car and gas been shortlisting another CLA shooting brake 4matic, an XC40 and a defender 90. Now I’ll have to shortlist this, looks a great, practical car for my needs.
I actually quite like the boxy shape, It’s reminiscent of the GLK
Yeah, the glk was a thing
i just searched up mercedes glk and its uglier than the kid from wonder
@@manmeh4r no
Who can't afford these cars but still loves watching Carwow reviews ??
Like👍👍
I then go on autotrader to see specifically how much I cant afford it by
I drive a Honda
You go Matt
This is the poor mans merc suv honestly
Geez... for those saying "it's cheap AF" and "this is a poor man's SUV", how many people in the world do you think can actually afford this? Count your blessings, because obviously, it's cheap to you - but not to everyone else out there.
Just purchase a GLB 250. My other car is a 16 STi.
I’m really starting to fall in love with it the more I drive it. It’s interesting just how far apart they are and yet both a joy to pilot.
i own the GLB 250 4MATIC now for 2 years (5 seater) ... i put in there two ! 29 eBikes and one normal mullet Downhill Bike only removing the front wheels. (3 bikes!!!) Its unbelievable how much space for sports and outdoor fun the GLB offers. the front wheels of the bikes can be placed between the frame and the backdoors so the space in the middle is free for suitcases or a third bike. happy with the car and can recommend it 100 percent.
I own the glb200, same engine option, since last july year and heres my opinion. The bad: interior feels cheap inside, feels way behind infinity qx50 at same price point. That screens reflects too much light on a bright day. Dont like the run flat tire, too harsh ride. A bit too much sway on cornering at 30kmh and up at no load. So i changed them from 19 to 20 inch wheel and tire combo. Now the good: this car is agile. Love to drive it in tight space. Turn radius is small enough to do u turn within 2 and a half lane width. Enough power to carry 5 to 6 adult. Smoother ride with 6 or 7 people. Visibility from driver point of view, can be adjusted to almost as tall as X5 (the feel, not actual height) and as low as qx50. Space inside is good for 5 adults and 2 kids. Steering is awesome, light and responsive for daily driving.
i just love the anticipation from matt for the rear windows will they go all the way down it makes me excited :D
Thanks for the video. By far, this is the best I've seen so far.
I had the GLE when it was the ML500 and it only cost me 45k. I don't need the bigger version, I just like the GLB and have built mine with what I need and should be getting it in a couple of months. I've test driven it and I'm happy with it.
Just got mine, I had it build with options that are important to me and I opted for the AMG night package with the 20inch wheels and the Burmester sound system. Amazing❤️👍🏾
I’ve got the same spec. The car is a perfect combo of cool looks and practicality. Just amazing the space and loading space as well.
Can I ask which options? I am about to buy the car as well. Were you able to add options on top of the AMG night package?
it looks mean!! i really like this all blacked out.
Thanks for the review Matt!!
Great reviews. Loved the attention to details
10:10 i was already watching at 1.5× speed, and in this moment, mat watson becomes Marshal Mathers ||| 😂😂😂😂😂
13:50 post collision braking is to stop your vehicle from rolling and having a potential second collision. It's nothing to do with whiplash.
Finally I have been waiting for this review from mat💪
I can always relate to all his videos because it's the same in my country-right hand drive.👍
This content lately is absolutely awesome! Great job to Mat and the whole carwow team!
Aaaaaaaàaa
Content has always been great. But you can tell they have stepped it up a notch. Great work!! Even the editor is doing bits

@@ihatetheantichrist8043 you mean the new mercedes mbux infotainment system right????
@@carlovers4561 Yeah but its gonna change in 2 weeks
@@ihatetheantichrist8043 it's gonna kill the i drive
I had one of these as a loaner a few weeks back i liked it.
5 more inches in the wheelbase and 5 more in the cargo area will do wonders for this thing. It would fit 7 passengers with ease, and at 192", it'll be loads shorter than most SUV's and way more than most minivans.
When you were telling about the diesel engine types they put GLA instead of GLB 3:38. No hate just telling.
Great review as always Mat. I think the GLB is a fantastic car, very well thought out, and only minor negatives really.. How I wish you moved the second row of the GLE forward in like manner to give the third row a 'fair chance' 😢😉.
I ❤ Mercedes and BMW x5 BOB are great well done I'm so proud of you!
Like the shorts and jumper Matt!
19:05 First time mat said “not bmw’s idrive system”
.

Really very shocking 😱😱
Cuz it's better
It was a glitch in the matrix
BMW overall is the best brand.
Dr.AJ.10 hahaha. No. Sure, you may like them, but as somebody who bought bmw over decades i can tell you wholeheartedly: no. Their quality has gone so much downhill that I rather buy a vw or a vauxhall before i buy another bmw. The e30, e36, e46, e39 were great cars, but modern bmws are just for leasing. Use them two years and get the hell away from them before they fall apart.
Uhm he says that mercedes's system is the best for quite some time now. Since they launched their new MBUX with the A-Class Matt has stated that multiple times. The only thing that got his attention on being as good or maybe even better is the Android System of the Polestar 2.
Been waiting for this review. About time
Also will be waiting for these in bradford with the svr's.

The GLK was loved in Germany. This looks close to being a worthy successor
Yes, much more of a spiritual successor to the GLK than the GLC ever was.
Yes, very true. But I think it will be very well selling anyway
Matt great review. Looks amazing for a family. If it was a pure EV and did not have fake exhausts fake air intakes and silly big wheels it would be fantastic. However would it fit through a 6 6 width restriction and what is the turning circle?
Hi Mat. First of all I would like to say I love your reviews, they are not boring and cover all important aspects when you choosing a car (for me at least)
As for this car for me is an “avoid” option, for one simple reason, I have Mazda 6 10 plate and it has a bigger boot space then this 7 seater when you fold last two seats😂. Reason I’m looking for a 7 seater is purely for a boot space so for me this is a no no. Thanks 😊
"A bit gash" - Wasn't expecting that!
Merc have my C class at the moment. They’ve given me one of these in the mean time. Didn’t like it to start with but now I don’t want to give it back.
The AMG GLB 35 would be such a great family car for a person who loves driving yet has to carry their spouse and their kids in terms of design (inside out), performance, practically and value for money (a 7-seater AMG for 50 grand sounds promising which would be a similar price to the Tiguan R but as a VWG fan I admit that for the same price I'd go with the Merc)
Do a Review of the KIA SELTOS Matt.
Have a nice weekend and stay safe🙂

Mat Makes the whole show! Every single time, Mat is by far the best, most entertaining auto reviewer I’ve ever seen....
Totally agree👍🏻
Am really missing those in-depth carwow comparison series😭
I love this new GLB ! ❤️
Heh Matt! Big fun of yours and longtime sub of your channel since you were filming for other channel carbuyers I guess. Do you guys have any app related to Canadian market as well? I wana buy new car & how I much i could save. Man!!! you guys nailed 👏 luv from 🇨🇦
My GLB (FP22LVN) bought for Eid last year is being collected today sols from carwow but just fell in ❤️ with it last week

Yeah Carwow has really gone downhill lately.
Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well......
Looks like the carwow stick of truth is in quarantine these days! Lol 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂!
Amazing car I have a 2020 model (AMG Line Premium) and one problem keeps coming back after a third visit to the garage- windscreen whistling! If you are driving above 170 km/h (Autobahn, Germany,) you may hear it
I'm going to buy one..but not with low profile tires..we have too many pot holes in NE..good job Mate!

Great review Mat!😸
Please do the Merc GLC review, I am really close to buying one but I need to see what you think Matt.
19:32 we all know you're not actually doing anything on your phone there, Mat ;)
Bought a brand new GLB but broken down twice in two months time (in repair center for more than a month). Only drove for less than 500km and its still in repair center now. Whats more ridiculous is that they asked me to trade in the current faulty car and buy another new one from them. I was completely blown away!
Think twice if you still consider Mercedes as your family car (mine was suddenly dead on the road) since the gearbox problem has been a major issue in the past few years, friends of mine also having problems with their Mercedes.
I’ve just purchased my GLB and hopefully mine doesn’t break down 👀. I have owned my cla for 5 years and have never had a problem with it. Was very upset to get rid off it and chop it in for a mum car 😂. Had an Audi before that and everything broke on the Audi and it was brand new. I spent more time in the courtesy a8 they gave me and I could never turn it around 😭
I love that intro song!!!
perfect review 👌
Honestly i think the GLB is the best looking in the GL line
I find the GLB far more appealing than the GLC. Regarding the 1.33-l turbo engine, I feel it gets a lot of hate from people who have never driven it. My father got a new B200 earlier this year with that motor and I am impressed with the smoothness and silence and the power. It’s powerful and torquey and definitely not underpowered. The fuel economy which my father achieves with his B200 is also incredible. With a soft foot and intelligent driving (in ECO Mode), he can get as low as 4.8 L / 100 km - impressive for any modern car, and this also includes some Autobahn driving (but he never drives faster than 120-130 km/h anyways).
Great review 👍
It was either the GLB or Discovery Sport for me but I discarded GLB purely because I was looking for a petrol SUV and the GLB only does 1.3 petrol engine in the uk unless you go for the 35.

Hey mat, please review Lamborghini Aventador sv.I would love to see that
Yes I'm also in the market for one
Matt, can you please make a review about the glc 300 coupe? Thanks!
Nice. I guess that everyone would like to know if we disregard price, size, design and all other things being equal (say, the same engine) which car offers the better ride and driving experience? GLB or GLC?
Thanks
I have the 2020 version and it’s a lovely car.
My only qualm is with the gearbox which revs up excessively when you brake the car a lot more than it should.
Overall very happy!
They should have made it to look like a mini G class, to have some character , it would have played the mini G Class better than a Suziki Jimny . Now it's rather confusing with the GLA, GLC.
Ali Anshasi not really, it’s like a mini “affordable” GLS
@@fran14b well maybe you are right . I meant from marketing perspective it would have made more impact if it was designed to look like a mini G class. In any case car is quite practical.
Mercedes was once a reliable, bulletproof car manufacturer. But just like BMW and Audi, they've cut the pie into way too many slices.
@@fran14b No. Its nothing like a GLS. The only reason GLS is mentioned is to make this heap look better. Its got nowhere near the usability, quality, comfort, spec or all the rest. The only thing this does better than a GLS is be cheap.
Si Raff of course, but the basic concept, in my opinion, is the same, as it is a 7-seater passenger car. And the shape looks very similar too
Looks like a pretty well thought through car. Not grunty enough for me but I do like it.
Can we see a 2020 glc review please!!!!
Can you include a short review of the sound system in you reviews? I feel like that’s important for quite many people.
Mat: This is the best infotainment system in the market
BMW fans: (argument starts)
A general question for all modern cars. In ten or twenty years' time, will these digital displays and dials still function, never mind be updated?
Awesome no nonsense review love it
Omg I got so many ads I literally couldn’t watch anymore
Use adblockplus on pc or TH-cam vanced on android
Well, the B class is bigger and more practical than the C class so...

@Dylan Jacobs he became a dealer adboy as he got bigger really. he never presents any small criticisms anymore and doesn't do unique older cars as often as he used to. he just does the new releases from his dealer mates that are close to where he lives.
Has Mat ever given an “avoid” verdict? My impression is that in most of the videos it’s either “buy” or “shortlist”.
