As much as I like this Mercedes I just don't see me paying over 70,000 dollars for it.

It's easily $20k more than it should be, and it's not even the full 45 version. You still have the basic low grade GLA interior. Not worth it at all.

😅😅😅 I can feel the sticker price shock 72k in Joe's voice...hahah..remember Joe..you cannot be bias 😅😅😅

I got the 2023 AMG GLA 45 a month ago. I freaking love it. Handcrafted engine pushing 382 hp. I went from a civic pushing only 180 hp to 382 hp car so it’s sick. Not many people expected it to be quick at a traffic light so it gives off a sleeper vibe. Kind of upset they’re not bringing back AMG GLA 45 for the 2024 year but aye I guess it’ll be more rare now😂. I love your channel Joe! Great review 👍

I went from a 2016 Golf R to a 2022 AMG GLA45. The GLA is only 6 inches longer than the Golf. My GLA45 was $52k with 18k miles and CPO. Golf R's were selling for same. GLA45 is in a different league. So fast and well built. I love it

I was guessing 55k but 72k!! Damn!!!

reasonably specced it's around $55-58k so your guess was good. Nobody is ticking every box on a GLA 35 like this 😂

I love your channel! what a great review . thx

Great review Raiti 👏

Bought one in 2022, can't believe the price increase! It does its job as a daily commuter, summer or winter quite well. I'm always waiting for the roads to dry out to rip on it again tho, it goes from comfy commuter to really fun with a roll of that dial. I don't regret getting one, but I'd be hard pressed to pay what they're asking for a new one!

I am with you Joe. That piped in sound would drive me crazy. I had a Ford Focus RS that had piped in sound but you could disable it by unplugging connector in the subwoofer. Once I found out about it did that and was a happy guy.

Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍

Great job with review, a flooded AMG collection today.

That's a big price for a smaller vehicle, but it is an AMG, so...yeah, I'd be in.

I got a 2016 B250 4 Matic AMG. Boy this car pulls so much im not even joking its awesome 🎉🎉

That steering wheel is one of the best I’ve seen! It’s super thick. It looks like it would be easy to drive with it!

Was hoping they’d get away from the black cladding for this year. Nice review as usual!

Oh Apostle Joe, I love the Mercedes-AMG GLA53 I like how it looks.

Hi Joe, the GLA45s is still available here in Australia. 421HP and proper Affalterbach handbuilt engine!

Any plans to review the X1 M35i in the future?

My favorite part the AMG badge atop of the hood so the people looking from an airplane or helicopter can identify the brand of the vehicle. 😂 by the the way, either the door pocket is really big or the size of the food items Joe mentioned are really very tiny. 😂. Seriously, very nice video, as always.

Looks great

Observation, you seem to zonk every rear window wiper blade. However, I've never seen you do a review with the wiper blade at the top..? Love your videos though, Would like to see what you think of the GLC 43 AMG ( I just bought a 21 myself).

i was really waiting for a big and beefy sound coming from an AMG :/ love the interior

Yes of course Joe & this is my favorite SUV.

The laugh is what does it mean. I love the laugh. Great video.

Yooo this car is cool. I want it. Pretty dope

Hey Joe I wanted to ask you how did you start this reviewing Chanel I love cars so much and want to do what you do but I don't know how to start the Chanel or even get a delership to let me review their car cab you help me?

Aye bro I was still able to get a 2023 AMG GLA 45 new 1 month ago. I’m sure if you look around you can find one brand new still for the same price the GLA 35 is charging. It’s definitely worth it. The engine is handcrafted pushing 382 hp and boi is it fun. I definitely recommend it.

The climate vents make the infotainment screen look tiny. $72k yikes and piped in noise is just bush league. Thanks Joe 🤙🏼

I’m not fond of an amg badge on a turbo 4 banger but imagine a manual as an option. Sign me up for that!

Joe, Audi doesnt make SQ3 :P. RS Q3 or SQ5! If only that RS Q3 was available here though :( nice video as always!

I see what you did there!

Starts at $57,600 per MB configurator. Last year, I purchased a well equipped CPO 2022 GLA45...382 hp...with 18k miles for $52k. Traded in a 2016 manual trans Golf R. The GLA is only 6 inches longer. The GLA45 is awesome and I am more than pleased.

Should have bought a 400 hp Ford Explorer ST instead Much better all around machine

It would be nice if they had a stepped up version, like AMG GLA 45 with Bi-turbo system pushing out easily over 400 hp/420 foot-pounds of torque. Beautiful dream of a machine. But it is for now a dream. Mercedes I hope you are taking notes.😂

Cyprus price 62k euro base price and with some extra and a little discount (2.5k only )it’s coming at price of 64.5K euro and waiting time 7 months 😢

This AMG is cool but its making me give the GR Corolla Circuit Edition another look as my next daily driver. I know they aren't direct competitors on paper.

JOEY - the Baby Benz (AMG style) me love it. tony macaroni with extra cheese

Joe I normally don't say anything, but I'm seeing negative comments just keep doing what you're doing and sorry that good people like you have to deal with rude assholes. Love the Mercedes!!

$72,000 is absolutely wild for this lol. You can get a 2021 M3 competition with less than 30,000 miles for less than this lol

I’d go for a (few years) pre owned GLA45 AMG or the Golf R before sticker shocking myself to death 🤣🤣 .. but I like it

you should search here on youtube : gla night pov , then you won't lol anymore then you think this looks so nice at night with the ambient light on ... inside those vents even there are lights. The best dashbaord in a current mercedes i think (but i am not objective i ride a 2019 mercedes B-class which has the exact same dashboard). The 3 vents on a current model mercedes GLC look like an aftertaught.

Ouch! $72k??? No thanks! I'm happier with my Golf R, and I have an extra $20k in my pocket and better performance.

72K for this? That's a joke! 60K maybe.

Looks cool. But 72k?? I’m still taking my ‘22 SQ5. Less money. Faster and a few mods away from even more performance and still less $$. Thanks for showing us!

They definitely hit the crackpipe before pricing this at $72K.

Who buys this at that price point? Of course I asked the same thing about the Macan. For $40k, my mk7 Golf R gave me thrills I doubt this would surpass.

ARBYS BEEF N CHEDDARS FTW!

Audi SQ3? Hmm haven’t heard of that one yet.

It looks better than any x BMW!

The ultimate $75k hot hatch! Bummer that killed off the 400hp GLA 45.

72k I right as well get myself a Genesis 😊

Better then the 2023 model 💯💯

It’s reminds me of one of them jdm cars lol

The 45 is coming back next year. And the 35 can easily be spec’d $55-60K, so it’s a better value in that range.

The rear looks like a Nissan qashqai 😅

I wish they gave America the A Class Hatch instead of the sedan… this is the closest thing we have

12:12 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

They list as an SUV to help buyers keep their insurance down. LOL.

The civic of Mercedes

sQ3 ?!

There’s a reason luxury car sales make up 18% of car sales but almost 50% of profits…

Sounds like a vacuum cleaner

What Mercedes should’ve done was drop the GLA 35 and kept the 45 or brought the S version of that because it appears to 35 is not worth the cost of entry.

Way too many controls on the steering wheel. They tried to turn it into a video game controller

Sounds like a lawn mower....inside looks awesome....

Yes 👍

Lease bait, if ever there was one. If you're good with a $700+ payment, it looks like a fun, scout about.

What about the dodge hornet

I think it's compared to VW T-ROC

AMG 45S + 😎

I have a 2017 gla45 and i can tell that the 1st gen look good compared to this one

The inside is nicer than my m35I but the m35I in my opinion exterior wise looks a lot better especially with the price difference 72000 is overpriced on a whole other level for that engine especially

It is a ton of money for this.

$72K, insane for a compact SUV, even an AMG.

Idk. More horsepower and torque than a Golf R but I think the Golf R would smoke this GLA. 7 speed to pull harder. Nothing like a good 6 speed so 1 more gear isnt going to hurt. Golf R pulls at lower Rpms. Both DCTs. But the Golf R is Legendary Gearbox.

2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA35 AMG Night Package!

I’m not interested when a vehicle has too many letters and numbers in the name. 😂. Thanks Joe…..can you put twinkies in a Mercedes?

Nice inside but outside it looks like an old Kia Sportage!

You can get Bronco Raptor that has MORE of everything 😂😂

I’ll take a Golf R over this ANY DAY.
