    Thank you very much for an excellent review. I went through several comparative review btw X3 30i Vs GLC 300 and found yours is a genuine one. Good news is I ended up buying a X3 30i M Sport version and just loving the drive! Thanks again.

    Nice job. Well documented and compared. I would have liked to see you continue the comparison on into the interior. For instance a comparison between fit/finish, quality of switch gear, screen size, seating position/comfort. But all in all you did a real nice job sticking to the subject matter.

    I traded in my X3 for the GLC 300. The ride quality in the GLC is much better. More luxurious, more quiet, and absorbs road imperfections better than the X3. My X3 suffered a lot of interior rattling noises.

    Infotainment, Safety , Standard vs optional Features, Test Drive...These are categories I would have liked to have seen in the comparison of these 2 remarkably similar vehicles. I test drove a GLC recently and plan to test drive the BMW X3 as I am in the market for a new car this Fall 2020. Excellent review/comparision of BOTH vehicles. I have seen sooooo many reviews as of late and yours really stood out. As I am a visual person, I appreciated the side-by-side charts with data. The visual pictorials and definitions of drag coefficient, tow capacity, etc., helped me to understand the terms. I also highly appreciate how you explained the feature and tied it in with what it means to me as a driver/owner of the vehicle, instead of just listing the feature. I have subscribed and hope that you continue with such GREAT, QUALITY and consumer conscientious reviews.

    Thanks for a comprehensive, fact based review with good supporting charts to clearly illustrate the differences in the specs of these two SUVs. Personally, I prefer the cockpit and styling of the GLC 300 but for a mid sized SUV, the additional towing capacity and the material difference in cargo space with the X3 make it the preferred option for my needs. If you like Mercedes and are willing to sacrifice a bit on cargo space and towing, the C300 wagon is a potential GLC alternative for luxury, performance oriented driving experience with reasonable cargo capacity, especially since BMW dropped the 3 series wagon in North America.

    Outstanding review. Own a 2019 X3 and test drove GLC. I believe these are the best SUVs in their class. Might be personal preference. BMW is better driving, more space and greater tech safety features. MB is better looking, smooth drive and luxurious vehicle. Depends on preference. I consider a vehicle for driving and safety, but luxury is nice. You can’t go wrong with either choice.

    Great comparison. Recently test drove both and others in the class. They had the most comfortable seats. Other things to consider is technology. MB has both android and Apple play while BMW has only Apple. Also the BMW doesnt have the wireless charging. BMW has a feature that can ventilate the cabin at certain intervals so people in hot climate can have their cars reduce their temperature.
    Both very good choices. Comes down to personal preferences on the minor areas that will be important to the individual and their lifestyle and needs.

  • @lindacoppola898
    @lindacoppola898 Před 4 lety +1

    Thanks this video presents amazing information. I am deciding between the two cars for my next vehicle. I did find the BMW has better exterior lighting offered. The Mercedes looks great with the new look and the inside seems more spacious the way the dash is designed and the shifter is on the steering wheel freeing some space in the middle console area. The BMW front cabin seems a bit more busy with the center console taking up some space. I like the drive a bit better on the BMW a little more hugging the road. The cargo area seamed pretty good on both vehicles I didn't notice much of a difference visually speaking.

  • @gregparker3526
    @gregparker3526 Před 3 lety

    Cool review. Given that these will probably be family cars, it would be nice to address how each fits a car seat. Including how wide the doors open to get children in and out. It would also be good to include ride quality.
    Very in depth and informative review though. Totally helps given that I’m trying to shop between these two cars. I’m leaning BMW btw.

I'm BMW fan but as importing to the country they cut off so many functions of intelligence safety such as Blind spot , 360 camera and even the seat color is so limited and not able to choose ( I like cognac interior that goes well on blue) which is really disappointing. For the luxury car price and those functions are not with it , it is something really need to considering about if i should throw money for it or not...

    I bought a 2020 GLC 300 4matic (blk/blk) and I love it! Only complaints: Carpeted cargo space vs a removable mat - you cannot remove the carpet and shake it out, infotainment system is awesome but a little buggy and takes a couple of minutes to recognize my phone every. Single. Time. Ugh. If you spend 50k+ on a car, The seat should come ventilated as a given. That’s an extra cost - which was not included. Perks: too many to list - The pano roof and the parking package are 100% worth their costs. The car may not be a sports car but it is fast and gets the job done, that’s for sure! Loving my new ride!!!
