- AMG’s Newest & Baddest Hot Hatch! And it’s Power is OVER 9000!! (If you get this reference, we love you.).
One of my favourite small pleasures in life, is living with a standard version of a car for an extended time, then being handed the performance variant, and just relishing each and every new sensory experience. It’s like the car has reached a new form of power, a Super Transformation! And that new level of power, is exactly the awesome feeling you get with this new AMG A35 hot hatch.
The previous entry level to the AMG family was the AMG C43. Though developed in house by AMG, is very much it’s own formula from the elder C63. With a V6 bi turbo attached to a standard 4 Matic, it’s not really a direct formula copied from any modern flagship AMG.
BUT: this A35 changes that game completely. See rather than a new formula, the A35 takes the winning DNA of a previous flagship AMG and unapologetically makes it it’s own. And that epic flagship, was the AMG A45.
Could this A35 thus have the most TRUE AMG DNA compared to all the other entry level AMGs??

I don’t know how this channel doesn’t have millions of subs, the quality is amazing
Give it some time...... it definitely will!
If you know, you know 🙏🏾
@@parsonwang9458 it's been 3 years and it's on 350,000 definitely deserve more
The editing on these videos are amazing hahaha, Any news on the new A45 / A45 S?
AE777 haha thanks man
I’ve ordered a 35 , this is the best review I’ve watched. As for some of the haters , I know an owner of a 35 who previously had a golf R , he totally rates the 35 as a better car . You can dream & read statistics, but you can’t beat actual real time comparison!
Update on the car?
Almost all the insane critics of this car are just from people that cannot afford it, ignore them pal.
Seen people compare it to an RS3, fucking loonies.
Or how its SLIGHTLY less powerful than a 135i, yes as if anyone even needs 306bhp for anything more than the 1 time a month you burn away from someone.
Hope you are enjoying the car pal, mines coming in September (hopefully)
@@mememachine5244 September delivery here as well mate! Though I went for the saloon
@@mememachine5244 my mate owns a Golf R and I'm definetly picking up the A35. I'm just dissapointed about the exhaust sound on the A35 though.
@@CinemaAtv Was very tempted for the saloon, but really needed the boot space for skis etc, and the spoiler made my inner 2 year old happy.
We just need to sit tight!
I love how lots of the design features in the AMG GT 4 door have made their way to other AMG models. The new UI, steering wheel, quad pipes, etc....
Totally agree, hoping the CLA 45 really is a small version.
@@RemoveBeforeRace I;m sure it be amazing. Although I don't get the point of a CLA, if Mercedes also has a A class sedan (unless the A class sedan is only for China)?
The new ui and steering wheel started in this a class
@@chiefdenis The new A class started the new MBUX yes, but it didn't start the dual screen screen design, interior updated lighting, etc... That all started from the S class. The new A class just added the updated MBUX and voice control feature. The AMG GT 4 door brought the updated steering wheel with AMG controls, plus updated dual screen UI, larger quad pipes, etc.... those are the features that have filtered down to other AMG models.
@@DanielSadjadian yeah, i didn't say anything about the other stuff, just gui and steering wheel, but I guess I'm wrong about the steering wheel
One of my favorite current automotive CZcamsrs, originally found out about you through your Instagram then decided to give your yt channel a chance and was pleasantly surprised. Keep up the good work. Btw the new a35/45 will most likely be my next car if all things go to plan financially :)
This guy literally does the best AMG review like always. Keep it up!
Damn that yellow is gorgeous.
A F it’s amazing, video doesn’t do it justice
What an excellent review. Great content, great delivery, great effects (especially the comparison views). Very well done.
Brilliant review, very knowledgeable and sound quality is excellent. Best review of the A35, no waffle, all info. Mine is due to be delivered next Thursday, can’t wait.
How has ur experience been with a35 amg?
AMG and yellow color is a perfect fit!
1990Thunderbolt love the sun yellow!
@@RemoveBeforeRace any yellow color is perfect on mercedes benz. it's like one of mercedes main color.
yeah normally I'm not a fan of yellow on hatchbacks. But I think it looks really nice on this one, a lot better than the blue color. Than you have red, but it's the same as before and the rest is all white, black and all sorts of grey in between xD The designo color looks nice, but is more expensive than that on the C/E-class for some reason and such a color is a pain in the ass to maintain. Better get a carwrap if you would something like that and then the options are limitless xD
@Sarkozy absolutely fucking yes!
Since When? - I´m not a Mercedes fan, but if I should ever be so lucky to own one, yellow would be the last color I could imagine choosing even for a sporty AMG version. Properly the only AMG that really can carry yellow without screaming "I am a Pimp" is the SLS.
This is one of the best channels to do car reviews!! Love your videos dude!
Loving the production level on this shot very well and great knowledge. I have to say the new A Class is on another level, looks like a spaceship interior. As consumers we are so blessed to have advancements in technology because the things we have in cars now are just insane compared to 15-20 years ago
I love all the DBZ references used throughout your videos!
rakesh singhal DB fanatic at heart 😆
This has to be the most thorough and detailed review of the a35 I've seen.
Stumbled across this review. I know a fair bit about cars but loved all your knowledge and context, I’ve learnt quite abit so Thankyou 🙏 look forward to watching more of your videos! ❤️
I really want this car 🤤🤤🤤 my daily sporty car
-9db on the sound effects please.
Thank you as always for your videos : ).
IT'S OVER 9000!!!! Hope you enjoyed guys, really pleased to see the cheapest entry level AMG is pretty much the best. Makes me hyped about the A45!! 😈
What did you guys think of it? I love the Sun Yellow!!!!
Here’s the New A Class review link, for those who want to see MBUX in action! :
czcams.com/video/7uwpTboy2zo/video.html
Love the DBZ start. I see you got the goku Adidas too. Best car reviews on CZcams
This is a very well put together and thought out video. Well done.
I think the round rear pipes are more related to the model today. The 53 Models all have now round tips at the end. As the A35 is also the second biggest in the range (A45 coming up), it would make sense that it also comes with round exhaust tips.
Marc Nobel that’s part of it, but the history is nice too
@@RemoveBeforeRace Sure - that`s why i like to watch your content. Gives a good wide range of information and its well edited with that in mind.
I never really liked the golf R... but now it's growing on me and im starting to like it more and more
ben fl Love the golf R.
Perhaps you missed the tech briefing (I assume Mercedes did one for you guys at the launch) but the transfer of power to the rear wheels is now a much more sophisticated electro-mechanical system, not at all lifted from the 45.
Amazing review! I once had a C30cdi AMG st. I just hope Mercedes’d come up with something as a A25d AMG!....
Just watching this single video was enough to subscribe. Especially for the great sound and video quality.
Quality content some fantastic editing skills full of knowledgeable history love it keep up the good work raz 👍
So glad I’ve found this channel. 👌🏻
Amazing car this new A35! Would be nice if it could have performance exhaust
I was scared when I didn't hear the intro music straight away, it's a must
looks like the front brakes are borrowed from the both the C450 and C43 not the old A45
Nice jacket!
Any AMG is just brilliant
Great looking car! And that yellow colour looks nice on this car.
Lol s/o Raz for throwing in the Dragonball Z references while wearing the goku's in this review 😂
Your videos are amazing.. please try lower the volumes on effects.. it almost killed my ears as I was raising the volume on your voice.. Keep up the great work
Another spec mess up by Mercedes UK not allowing the multispoke wheels to be added without the aero package. I know two people who have decided not to buy because of this - not everyone wants to shout with rear spoilers etc.
Joe Walker I just got a black one with the big wheels and no aero in uk
Haha..tat super saiyan part is fantastic man..👍👍👍
Great video mate. I absolutely love that car it looks stunning love the yellow aswell 😀😀😀
2 questions, 1 is this a good first car 2 , what modifications would be good for this?
Absolutely right ! Another Level Compared to the competitors
Who knew a Mercedes could look so good in yellow!
Josh Charlie Have you never seen an SLS AMG Black Series?
Joe Rene good point Joe how could I forget about that one!!
also the amg gt s edition 1 was great in solar beam yellow
The w204 c63 in solar beam yellow
Chief Denis you missed the words black and series :)
A really comprehensive review, I really enjoyed it. I’ve got an A35 on order the only bit of disappointment for me has been not being able to spec a different set of alloys on my car as I have not gone for the aero pack, which I think is not very good. But there seems to be a few bits that we can’t get here in the UK.
I’ve gone for mountain grey metallic with premium plus pack with red/black leather can’t wait for it, its due May😁
best reference ever!
Fantastic review!!! Love your reviews, very thorough and detailed. Keep it up
1471club thanks man!!
Great video and review, love the video work very impressive
That DBZ edit
LOVE IT, THE BEST IS MERCEDES AMG, THANKS ONCE AGAIN FOR YOUR GREAT POST!
I really enjoyed reading the comments 😂 everyone complains ablut different parts of the car being horrible for ex. The interior, the wheel, the spoiler, the rear, the sound, etc 🤷♂️ for such a „horrible“ car this thing is pretty amazing 👍🏻
Love how you fit the sneakers. I wonder if anyone else caught that?
great vid again................ i have an A45 and i do have 3 suspension model with it, it was an extra do ......great work again
Just found your channel & WOW!! Amazing cars and content, love your format and all the special touches you add makes a huge difference!! 👍👍
Awesome review, Hope we get it in South Africa soon
One of the best rounded hot hatches by the sounds of it and great overview of the car!
Shame you can’t get the Performance seats in the UK, and that you can’t spec the night pack without the aero pack for those who want a slightly subtler hot hatch 🤔 still rather have this over the Golf R and S3 any day🤷♂️
*Teleporting cars activated
Love the “handelling” of this car....
RBR .. I knew the whole vid had a dragonball theme to it when I saw yr Goku Collabs!!. Then when I saw the Saiyan effects ... it just confirmed it!!. Great VId!! .. Are you a DBZ fan?
I love DBZ!!!.
Watabe ishikawa MEGA DB fan. 😉
Your sneaker game is also on point man
Forget entry-level, this is it!
That's a pretty awesome car! Looking forward to my car :)
Great review. Will be interesting to see how the new Audi A3/S3 compares to this.
Amit I’m after the Audi A3. Not sure when in 2019 that will be available in the UK 🇬🇧
best review.......that car went super saiyan
Merc should bring the A35 to the US. VW is making a killing on the GTI/R here. We need something to shakeup the market.
Cant wait for The CLA !!
Can’t wait to see what the new A45 will be like
Can;t wait for the design the C- class will have when their brand new model comes out in a few years' time
What’s a good very loud poppy exhaust under 72 decibels for this car that I can get
OVER 9000 hahahahhaha nice one bro
The interior is perhaps a tad sportier than Audi but Audi's is undeniably more classy. This looks to be a great entry point into the AMG brand. Hatchbacks aren't for me, but this is arguably setting a new benchmark for its rivals. Your move, Audi.
one of the A38's is here in australia, its in the linfox car collection in melbourne
How does the handling of the A35 compare to the Porsche Cayman?
Great video however with headphones at full volume its still very quiet compared to other RBR videos. Not sure if mic’s were used or not but just something to be mindful of
How dont we see these seats on a35 in the Uk
I was thinking the exact same thing
You are the next big thing on CZcams
I like it in the space grey colour
I would definitely buy an A35 sedan. Great review of the hatch! Got me convinced!
Great review. But to be frank, besides the interior, the A35 is inferior to its competitors. The 135i has a faster 0 to 100, the Trophy RS has a faster 100 to 200, the Golf R is faster in all aspects, the GTI Clubsport is faster on the Nurburgring, the i30N DCT with less power is as fast while all the cars mentioned have 380L of boot space. Mind you, tested this car more often does more than 5 seconds 0 to 100 and it is plausible that the lower than 5 sec times might be from press cars.
So buy this car just for the interior and pay more? For the badge? The logical option is the A45 S. But the gap is too big.
Do you think the dials for the steering wheel can become an aftermarket option?
Dragonball Mercedes ? i ll buy it . Super edit! as usual
Great review what is you View on Mercedes reliability and long-term ownership ?
Do the led headlights as shown come standard or is it the boring halogen ones in the uk? If so, does the night package cover the led headlights?
Nice Goku kicks !
Yes finally!
does this particular spec have the optional extra amg styling pack?
why doesnt uk get the cool mode select switches on the steering wheel
Exactly...
Cool car, just wish MB would make these rwd biased.
When is the A45 due? And when will you test the AMG GT 4 door? Waiting for your review before buying next car.
AMG meets DBZ! Wow!
What a shame these seats aren't available in the UK 😨
I subbed because of the reference
Similar to the C43?? The C-class has a 6 cylinder and has 80 ps more! You Cannot compare this to the c43. However good, very informative video. 👌
very proff review!!! why no comments?
Sick editing! green screen by anychance?
I also heard tht CLA will be MR unless 4matic
A for sure RR unless 4matic
Sounds really rough and they tried too hard with the bottom rear end. Idk split opinion on this one but if I had to choose it would be S3. Lacking too much to be there in that category and seems half the car needs to be optioned up to look half decent.
It's over 9000!!!
Are the adaptive dampers standard specification on these or an optional extra? I would like one of these in black without the aero pack to keep it low key. I'm just wondering if the sports exhaust is optional or standard along with the large sat nav
exhaust is on every version the same. adaptive dampers are optional and he had in his car. if you dont have it you cant change the dampers
Did anyone notice he’s wearing the the Adidas Goku shoes 😂👍🏽
instant like when turned super saiyan
I thought the CLA45 was the entry level AMG, not the C43. In Canada the AMG C43 costs way more than the AMG CLA45.
I’m considering going to an AMG next time, got a M140i right now and love it but the AMGs are really compelling. But personally I’ll hold out on the A45 and see what that offers because the A35 is just a bit meh in my opinion.
I think the problem with the A45, except for the extra money you'll need xD, is that it might not be the best experience as a daily. I've heard it before with the S3/RS3. While the S3 is a good dailly, but with still quite some power for a hatchback, some say the RS3 is great fun but not so comfortable as a dailly. So while you have the extra power and it will be great fun to accelerate and on track etc. Using it every day, it might be a bit to much ''track ready''. Kinda like the Type R, great on track but I've been in one on public roads... was pretty much literally a pain in the ass xD However maybe with the A45s in mind, I hope they would use that one as a car more for the track and make the A45 still interesting as a dailly. But I guess the A45s would just be a slightly ''tuned'' version of the A45, to get a bit extra power for a lot more money.
