    The car looks terrible, the star head and taillight looks like something an automotive design student would come up with

    How good is the level 2 driving vs FSD v13 on anything that’s not a Cybertruck?

    I think for 60K USD you will get a real real good Car. I actually drive the GLA 2022 as a Diesel and will switch to this model next year, I think i take the EV Version.

    For me, they nailed it, The new 800V platform, design is just amazing, and I cant wait for the CLA AMG EV 🙂

    March 15, 2025 at 1:55 pm

    I think it’s pretty close looking as a Toyota

    nah, Tesla model y ftw

  17. @baaelos

    March 15, 2025 at 2:22 pm

    The new models look worse and worse I fear. They don’t look like Mercedes and the infotainment looks so dated and not user friendly.

    Where’s Bryan Cooley? He was the greatest.

    It would have been perfect if it wasn’t for that completely unnecessary and ugly light bar in the front, this light bar and split headlight trend needs to stop fr

    now that Tesla is no more, time to look into EV.

    • @drrider100

      March 16, 2025 at 7:59 pm

      Tesla is still around.
