REVIEW: Audi RS4 Avant
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
It’s human nature to slip on the rose-tinted glasses and remember ‘the good old days’, but there’s nothing to fear when the future includes performance wagons like the new Audi RS4.

Why should wagons be boring? They do look better than sedans imo.. and are more practical. But all the „everyday cars“ are rather boring, sedans and wagons

danI43541 personally I am starting to think the trunk part of sedans are getting kinda old and a waste of space in 2018
This guy is one the best reviewer you guys have ever featured on this channel.

Yes, but car advice is one of more biased reviewers towards the manufacturers. So I watch them for the car features not listening to their own opinions.

@@EastWood2004 that's how most car reviewers make their money. If they keep bagging the crap out of cars do you think anyone would let them review their products? Just take on the honest parts and don't worry about the bullshit. At the end of the day no ones going to buy a car based on these reviews. It's all about the test drive and the personal experience.
Top review! Good personality balanced with facts. Love the channel, please keep posting
This was a great review. I liked the explanation of extras and cost.
I felt exactly the same when I drove the RS5 couple. Super comfortable and refined in comfort. Put the car in dynamic and the rear end comes out and the car is a beast. Audi got these new RS cars perfect. If you want a tune, coils and springs go ahead and you can make these into 600hp cars and stiffer for a few grand

Good review. Finally someone who doesnt flame the new v6 in the rs models
looks good.
Trent how does it go on our coarse bitumen highways, what’s the nvh like
"The engine is a masterpiece" so how come Alfa Romeo (Ferrari} gets 44Kw more from the same size V6 and it still sounds "tough"
If I didn’t buy my S4 I’d definitely buy this, but it not worth spending twice the money to upgrade now and not getting that much power difference.

The way of the future unfortunately. Germany has very strict emission laws.
Why so much hate for wagons?? I don't know why anyone would buy a saloon if there's a wagon variant. Ultimate sleepers- same performance and handling as their saloon siblings, similar looks (often better) but, with far more practicality...and the added bonus of being able to park in loading zones! It shouldn't take an RS4 to prove that wagons aren't "boring" cars, they're just the smarter option!
Turbo blows the engine gaskets at 80k mls... they haven’t even engineered the the motor properly for turbos, that’s how special it is
A tt v6 in the rs4 is fine, after all they started out that way, but the problem is here it’s an off the shelf motor out of a base model panamera/cayenne, and no longer a bespoke RS engine. this isn’t just downsizing for global warming, or cooling, or whatever they’re calling it now, this is simply cost cutting.... in a 180k a4

If this came to the USA, I'd trade my 2018 S5 Sportback for one in a minure.
The gloss black just kills the looks of this car. I prefer the chrome
not even close to the original , classic Inline 5 and co-designed by Porsche?
Great review. My take it that the Venn diagram of people that want an estate for moving furniture and a track car must be tiny. Most these will just be driven by twats driving up your arse on dual carriageways.

Really? Sedans are the most impractical style of vehicle. Wagons and lift backs are practical and do the sporty thing as well. Best of both worlds. For me sedans are a thing of the past
Why so angry at the old V8? Hilarious dude.
Sorry, the whole point of the RS and M cars is that you’re getting something special... I can get a v6 in a Toyota Camry... v6 in my Honda Accord. What they’re doing now is putting all the focus on looks and carbon plastic bits - coachwork.
The best in the class.

Michael Aleksovski he’s probably just sick and tired of hearing “it doesn’t sound as good as a v8”. We all know that, why does everyone have to keep repeating it? V8’s are going out the back door thanks to climate change and emissions restrictions. Get used to it, accept the inevitable and move on. Or run for parliament in the EC and change the laws
