Such an opinion is subjective and one-dimensional, because every car has its own strengths and downsides too. And then the Lexus..., well..., I would say it's a completely different thing. The Asians are still copying certain things, like they did in the past, but in general a Lexus is not on the same level as the Germans are.

Honestly I really used to like the BMWs because they had great engines and lovely sporty gearboxes. But since they're only available as automatics and Audi really improved on quality control I'd say that the Audi A6 is the way to go. It's a really good car. But in my opinion they're all better as wagons anyway. You don't wanna use them on the track so why give up that space just for some slightly better looks. Wagons FTW, although sadly wagons are getting mostly replaced by SUVs. :(

That is not true - I have compared the specs and Merc is better value for money. Compare ES Takumi with E300 AMG line (petrol) with comfort pack and Merc works out over £1400 cheaper + have more (not less) equipment and better at that e.g. panoramic roof vs. standard sunroof, air suspension vs. adaptive... it is faster etc etc. And just to clarify - I am biased towards Lexus, I drive Lexus myself... however facts are facts. The days when the Lexus "standard equipment" blew even £10k more expensive MB or BMW are long gone. I was kind of surprised with my comparison, but Merc had most equipment for the money, then BMW, then Lexus and Audi works out most expensive if you want to make the all like for like. Other massive issue for Lexus (for me) is lack of choice - single engine, single drivetrain and option list although comparatively quite long is really short compared to freedom of configuration you have on German cars.

@@Cptblogh Family has had VW Passat, 150k miles. Absolutely no problems. E class 250k miles, only ac broke but did die in engine failure. Ford galaxy (Europe only) 120k miles built like a brick. Currently have Audi A8, 35k miles. Such as breeze to own. I can never understand why others struggle

One good thing though about the Lexus is that it does 45Mpg on petrol. A lot of people are trying to avoid diesel these days :)

Really, Audi has taken the competition to a different level ❤️🔥

Max Morris couldn’t be more wrong my guy

can we just take a moment to appreciate Mat Watson for being absolutely the best car reviewer out there. I tried watching other car review channels and they suck compared to Carwow

You will be be overblown by the smoothness and quietness of the Lexus. It's truly an executive car. Plus it's more durable and reliable than these sugarcoated counterparts.

Hahaha first car review i had so much fun watching

I chose Skoda Superb L&K over an A6, so why not compare it, too ? It's a nobrainer for most of us (but the recent dieselgate produced some hicups in motors' catalog for the VAG group, with a not-so-great 1.5 evo TSI).

I think this is the first time i see a audi winning the carwow test!! .. glad to see them step up their game 😀

I would pick the Audi. It looks so beautiful!! Props to BMW And Mercedes Benz for making awesome cars too!

@Unintended Consequences Yes we all want a car that we dont trust.

Sorry to be a total and utter car bore, but…. The E Class now comes with a 12.3- inch display as standard for the standard Audio 40 Infotainment system and not the 8.4-inch shown and mentioned in the review. The E Class also now comes as standard with the Widescreen (12.3-inch) cockpit display as standard (replacing the part analogue and part digital displays shown in the review). It wasn’t mentioned that Apple Carplay is an optional extra on the BMW. It also cannot be purchased retrospectively unless the car came with the optional Enhanced Bluetooth and wireless. I have a 520D M Sport with the standard suspension and standard 18-inch run flat tyres and I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s ‘comfy over bumps’. The suspension is firm and sporting and you definitely feel the bumps in the road (though it is tolerable). The optional 19-inch wheels on the test car, would make the car ride even more firmly. I do like your reviews and am a regular viewer, even though I don’t always agree with you and there are some errors.

Great review as always but I’ve always been an Audi fan.

Really an hard job trying to find problems in such lovely and well built cars. Continue with the wonderfull reviews. Congrats.

Finally I’ve been waiting for this video for SO LONG

Has anyone switched from an e-class to the Skoda Superb or vice versa? And what are the pros and cons for each car? And yes, I know that the comparison is weird, but im considering one of them, because of the surprising quality of the Skoda Superb.

Executive car and three persons are setting in the back or deal with screen?

I think the Lexus shouldn’t have been in this comparison. If anything he should have got the GS & not the ES. The ES is basically on a Toyota Camry chassis. Not that it matters to me because I love my 540I M sport!

Svaka čast! Mamicu mu lažovsku! He’s a liar and biased! And in every single video in last ten years when he compared Audi, Mercedes and BMW in any class, for him Audi is always a winner! And yes he’s a liar when he was speaking about the height and said average Dutch is 1.85 m, on his screen is written ppl from Montenegro and Hercegovina (South East Slavs). I couldn’t believe that he’s talking about Dutch, because I’m a Serbian and as majority of ppl from Serbia, Montenegro, Hercegovina, Croatia, Dalmatia etc, when we go to Netherland, Germany or ANY OTHER Western European country they are not tall at all, but opposite! Yet when we go to France, Italy or Spain they are literally dwarfs comparing to us!

@aran5647

4 жыл бұрын

He's not lying. He just made a mistake by searching up the tallest people in the world on average, instead of THE COUNTRY with on average the tallest people in the world. As a matter of fact, the average height for Dutch people is indeed the tallest in the world out of all the other COUNTRIES. You can search this up on Google btw, the average height is 184.0cm in the Netherlands, which is actually taller than people that live in Serbia, Montenego, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia, , but the tallest people in the world indeed live in the DINARIC ALPS (with being 185.6cm on average), but since that's just a region in Herzegovina and Montenegro and not a country, the title of the country with the tallest people in the world goes to the Netherlands, and since Matt was talking about countries and not regions, he's speaking the truth.

There needs to be a numerical scoring for each category interior, exterior, comfort, driving, etc

Damn imagine those rumours of Top Gear trying to recruit Mat Watson are actually true!!!
