The best description I have heard comparing the 3 German interiors are as follows..... bmw is conservative,the mercedes c class is elegant and classy and the a4 is futuristic and more modern
can you guys not have a creepy voice over asking questions? i love the review of the Subaru STI and Mitsubishi Evo where you guys just talked and shared your opinions. I love hearing your insights and feel this format paints you in a box and creates short bland answers
I think the A4 looks better than the 3-Series or the C-Class. They have changed much more externally over the years than the 3-Series or the C-Class.

The main issue with the A4 is that it looks the same as it did in 2009, with some differences. That's why some people are upset about it

I'm not blind, the E90 and F30 are quite different. The length, & width are for sure not the same, the styling of the hood, headlights, rear are not very similar. Obviously it has some BMW DNA, but outside of that, they're not the same. Here are some photos, compare it yourself.

C class is the best looking car in this segment. This is just plain.

B&O does sound nice. But I am surprised that the EQ does not include a midrange control.. I have a hard time dialing in punchy rock and roll tracks to drive to.. My B8 had midrange. B9 with B&O doesn’t 🤷🏼♂️
Dude, all the tech nerd super hipster friends will NEVER think it's awsome when you have an iphone. You kidding me?
I just got a used one last year, a 2017 with 25k miles for only $24k but got the FWD. wish I would of done more research and gotten the AWD with more horsepower. And wish I would of gotten the digital speedometer. But it looks exactly just like this with the same rims and Manhattan Gray :)
How does this car hold up in the long haul? Looking to have this car for awhile with no crazy things happening or bs repairs. Thoughts?

Same. Looking at a pre-owned 2017-2018 with about 30k miles. Love Audi design, but not sure how much of my wallet I'm willing to sacrifice.
i have this car, so nice to drive. would def recommend.

@@GamingAndMore I have a 2017 A4 prestige. No problems at all. Almost 50k miles.
it would be great if you could do a direct comparison across the 3-series vs the a4 vs the c class.
You forgot to say that the hood lines has been moved to the sides and four aerodynamics now it’s only 2.7 As well as there is much more room for 6.1’ in the front so please don’t judge back seats for your stubby body. Engine is very punchy of from the start, a engine shut off can be Disengage by lightly pressing on the break pedal when you stop at least that’s what I do and I don’t like cats off Great review!
Get confused between the A3 sedan and A4 sedan :/

You couldn´t find a better background? Any model looks horrible with that background
Wait a min....this is the top of the line Prestige model? and you have to adjust the steering wheel manually?!
Good review. Hope to see more from you guys .
Videos are great, but rhetorical question billboards are lame. You could eliminate them and lose nothing.
Do tech nerds really find iphones awesome? I've always been drawn towards android. Have I been a bad nerd all this time? x_X Either way I think I understand his point; I'm just capitalising on what appears to be a mistake ^_^ The review was comprehensive for an overview of the car and what it has to offer. Presentation was great as well and I think I would like to give this A4 a test drive. The B8 looked great, B8.5 looked like crap and now the B9, though not a revolutionary breakthrough, brings back some of the handsome and elegant looks I got to like on the B8.
Um, there's a holder for the gas cap so you don't have to let it hang down on the body. Just sayin'.
Did he just say "enough power"? is that a new pokemon??
Great review. Although I think he got the comparison between Android and Apple, backwards.. As much "PROGRAMMABLE" tech as this Prestige model has? I would wholeheartedly classify it as an ANDROID..
for the price of a fully loaded 2017 a4 you can buy a used gtr lol
Why is this narrator going for the comic-books guy from the Simpsons look? Like, shave, take your winter hat off, and act like an adult, not a pre-pubescent teen... maybe then we'll take your advice more seriously.
Pongan subtítulos en español. Gracias, buena explicación descripción , mucho mejor si estuviera con subtítulos

Miko Sugo the main reason why i find audi ain't equal to mercedes or bmw is because of the service level after sales. not because the cars are less
Change the voice of the questions... It's so weird
I think this review lost all credibility when he mentioned iPhone and Android. Android's are better in every way, and are even more premium than iPhone's in a lot of cases.

This might be my least favorite review of the A4
these guys have only two bags to show storage
It is sad that permanent AWD with crown gear differential is now replaced with this system that is essentially front-wheel drive until computer decides. No matter how you look at it - it is a reactive system, very similar to cheap systems used on RAV4, CRV, and many other predominantly front wheel drive cars. This system will have more under-steer, will be more unpredictable in the corners, and it is unclear can in ever send more torque to the rear wheels that to the front wheels? Crown gear differential could send up to 85% of the torque to the rear wheels, making cars feel sporty, handle well in the corners and fun to drive. Even though the design of this model is beautiful, I guess my current Audi is the last one that I will own.

It's not reactive, it's proactive, please go watch some videos on the topic by Audi Engineers. Plus in dynamic or Sport or when ESC is off, it is always engaged. It also depends on many conditions including road condition and driver profile.
