- 00:30 - 01:00 about So let's quickly get into that Hey guys what's up my name is Bharati watching a and behind me is uh my first car that I ever purchased and it is a Porsche Cayenne and I've owned this car for a while If you've seen our channel for a while you probably are aware of this vehicle Uh this is my first ever purchase I was really proud of it and I really absolutely love this car but I am selling it Uh there are several reasons why I'm selling the car I don't really
- 01:00 - 01:30 want to sell it Now hold on At this point I go into a long rant and discussion about what my experience was of owning the Cayenne and what I liked about it and what I didn't like about it It was getting too long so I decided to cut it out If you do want to watch an extended version of my sort of ownership review of the Cayenne let me know in the comment section below Right now let's head to Mumbai
- 01:30 - 02:00 Fairly short flight and our car is here
- 02:00 - 02:30 to pick us up and this should give you an idea of what we are doing here So let's head
- 02:30 - 03:00 Morning Looking at this room it looks like somebody's been living here So this is our hotel We are only here for one night This was like an impromptu trip So uh this is the room You don't have and then if you look over there in the distance that's the paw leg So from here uh we will head to our destination uh which is the reason that
- 03:00 - 03:30 we have come here but that is a mystery and I know that you so it is time to head and uh for us to get there we have this brand new GLC 300 waiting for us So really cool car and uh yeah so this is what we'll be driving around Bombay DLC has also been updated with this new interior which
- 03:30 - 04:00 looks absolutely brilliant So this is definitely something I'm excited to drive So the GLC is definitely much improved We finally have seat ventilation which is fantastic Uh which is something always missing from these cars I will turn it on Also the suspension is definitely on the stiffer side in the new GLC which I think is the only little bit of uh something that you
- 04:00 - 04:30 will not appreciate especially if you don't have great roads which we don't seem to have right now in Bombay or Mumbai for now Uh of course this does not have adaptive dampers So you don't have any difference there in terms of the suspension You can't adjust it But basically this car the only thing it's really missing is adaptive dampers if not a full air suspension So one thing I really want to talk about is Indigo's new Stretch I mean it's not sponsored at all I flew Indigo Stretch from Delhi to
- 04:30 - 05:00 Bombay and the seats are really really good They're comfortable Uh it's definitely not a proper proper business class because it lacks a few amenities There's no screens for example but they do have these cool tablet holders built in where you can sort of pop in your phone or your tablet and it's really well engineered The seats are also super comfortable Uh there's a lot of leg room so definitely stretch is the right name for it This is going to get
- 05:00 - 05:30 interesting Okay guys We are here This is the Landmark car showroom the largest Mercedes showroom in Mumbai or in Tane uh but in the Mumbai area basically And why am I here i'm sure a lot of you have already guessed it by now Uh but let's go inside and see what is actually going to happen Hi Hi Good morning How's it going
- 05:30 - 06:00 okay So
- 06:00 - 06:30 at the back or you want to know more about the cars you proceed to the test right as you as you're driving this one is the diesel version 450D which have got a good big you know engine which is 3 liter inline 6 pumps out almost 382 horsepower right so that's how the things are Uh the car has got car have got good ground clearance You can always raise the car height Yeah But it's huge though with seven seats and I feel that from my
- 06:30 - 07:00 perspective I mean as nice as it looks Yeah and as much ro road presence it has Yes First of all diesel is a definite no no Okay So you don't have a requirement of a sevenseater to be definitely almost 80 lakhs here in Mumbai a good size car uh with five seating option good luggage space and
- 07:00 - 07:30 good range also So you get the AMG bumpers flat bottom steering wheel inside the car AMG mats and multiple other things I mean it's nice It's definitely spacious Yes Uh it's got a little bit of a boxy look to it though
- 07:30 - 08:00 This is definitely an option Yeah it's manual So how much is this on road with a manual roof kind of okay Then there's a big battery which gives you an almost a range of 450 to 500 km right definitely different from a traditional Gag Yes Addition one badge in the front On the graph handles you get these carbon fiber trim with blue inserts in it Okay Yeah Only 340
