Why no Model Y? Just curious 

Lot of reasons: Did not hear any complaints from Desi friends. But a lot of people complain about the quality of Tesla. I do not like it's interior. I never liked cars with no dashboard gauge. Too minimalist to my liking. I work remote. Won't drive a lot. I don't think I will be saving tons of money with Tesla. Insurance is going to be high compared to ICE. Especially there are lot of fire concerns with Tesla that no one talks about. I do not want take a chance with a fire prone car in my garage! ICE cars might catch fire too, but it's easy to stop them compared to EVs. I may be over thinking. But, I have never considered to buy a Tesla.

Stelvio is nothing but Hornet. Not worth it in my opinion

what?

it’s like saying Macan and Q5 are the same 

Alfa is a proper sports brand and has rich heritage

I should've mentioned this - I am looking at 2024 GLC Exclusive trim with Panorama Sunroof. Not the 2023 edition. There is a huge difference in the interior between 2023 and 2024. 2024 comes with a large center screen, ambient lighting and touch capacitive buttons!

no, 2023 and 2024 are the same

there is a huge redesign from 2022 to 2023

Merc EV versions, did you check EQB or EQE?

23 GLC300 (new exterior interior) user here. Drive, interiors are very nice. Very roomy.

BMW Drive is usually very sportier than Merc.

I test drove X3 today. I kinda felt GLC300 is peppy compared to BMW.

Bmw interior sucks…aa orange lighting endi va worst ga

Recently, after checking all these I ended up getting GLB250 CPO 2022 for 40k (MSRP 57000) with 7 seater (though it’s completely useless). It wont be as quick or sportier as X3 or with better engine with newly redesigned GLC300 but practically i felt its good for value. 

Wanted to sell it after 3 or 4 years usage.
