Mercedes AMG GLA 35: Why can’t the US have nice things?
It is common knowledge that we don’t get all the great enthusiast cars in the US, but why? MotoMan takes a look at an obscure @Mercedes-AMG, the 302 HP @MercedesBenz AMG GLA - which replaces the now departed Mercedes AMG GLA 45 in America in order to answer the question.

    Good interview! Seemed to stretch the margins for press questions - I appreciate that. I'd really like to know how much better if at all the hybrid would be for towing. Also, glad they made the limited actually luxurious instead of an afterthought like the prior generation

    The 1980 280ZX 10th Anniversary never came with a Turbo. You kept stating that. The first year of the Turbo was 1981 and it was 185hp. You even stated 145 in the video which is the N/A. In 1981 the Turbo model was only available in auto until 1982-83 with the optional Borg warner T5 5 spd that was capable of handling the additional horsepower.

    Is it me or did they completely ruin the looks compared to the last generation? The interior went from elegant to stupid with what looks like someone's computer tablet glued to the center dash along with the ugly striping instead of leather. And don't get me started with the vents. Exterior takes a big turn for the worse too, losing the sharp side creases and the front grill losing prior gen's simple elegance.

    Four-cylinder turbo, I can accept. Four-cylinder turbo hybrid will be interesting, I can accept. All the fancy fancy third-party upgrades I can accept. Like the interior changes to the front, with the larger screen, I can accept. The backseats not laying down flat to the back trunk area completely unacceptable! Having to forgo 6 inches to have the hybrid version, completely unacceptable! The product designers, clearly don’t have kids or transport any goods at all that requires a flat surface or a lot of space! Try moving across the states with this new forerunner will be much more of a headache versus my 2013! Things we’ve learned about the designers: They do not have children! They do not have big dogs ! They never move anything than a piece of luggage! They’ve never actually go camping with the weather gets so bad that sleeping in your vehicle is the best and safest option! (Ie. Likely never left California during the winter via their 4Runner and they only fly!) They are rich and fly versus drive! They’ve never worked in construction or built anything larger than the little child kits at Home Depot! 😂 They think they’re only catering to 25-year-olds, that match all of the foregoing items!

    Hi, I drive a 2016 SL400, living in Southwest Florida. To answer your question, I prefer the V6 over all engine choices. Perhaps I’m just getting old no longer requiring unnecessary gobs of horsepower rather opting for fuel economy. Before buying the car, I watched a bunch of reviews and it was then I decided on the V6. Even having the smallest of engine choices, let me tell you, this car is no slouch. Definitely more than enough horses for me. After brief ownerships of a Bentley GTC and an Aston Martin DB9, the primary reason in buying the SL was for the solid retractable roof. I had issues with the convertible tops on both prior cars, so this for me is a dream.
