A clean breath of fresh air in an era when many cars are overstyled with fake intakes and unnecessary creases.
good point
I love audi because of that, clean and stylish design with incremental improvements over time
So you hate Modern design; why bother with anything beyond 2005 then?
Glad to see that Audi and Volvo still know how to make awesome station wagons. This new S4 Avant and the new V90 are very nice cars. Who needs SUVs anyway.
LOL DJ Thomas in the AC house - classic.
DJ Thomas in the AC HOUSE!!!!
YEAH =)
Another great review Thomas. It appears Audi are the number one auto manufacturer in the market place today.
I recall being a BMW fanatic 15 or so years ago, then I switched to Mercedes Benz. Now in 2016, I find Audi are the premium German Brand. Audi have nailed "understated" good looks, which is important to me. Honestly they seem to be out BMWing BMW. Plus Audi seem to be providing interior quality, that is superior to Daimler. Though that is more likely "Personal Taste!"
The Audi star seems to be rising higher and higher, which I think is deservedly so.
+Mark Law interesting thoughts!
I have to say I always enjoy your reviews. Very detailed, in depth, and high quality while providing a nice relaxing experience. Keep up the good work!
+VonEZ love to hear that, spread the word for us!
One of the better car reviews I have ever watched. Awesome job. Just bought an S4. Thanks very much!
thanks m8 !
Same here, I make up excuses to drive the car =}
"Stuck" in traffic at 160km/h? I don't think my car can even reach that haha.
This guys voice really sets off my ASMR
Is it weird that I'm watching Thomas' video AFTER I've already ordered my S4? Either way, thanks for the amazingly thorough review!
sure why not =)
The seats in this baby are absolutely incredible. I was not a fan of the seats in the previous generation but they really nailed it with this car. Bravo Audi.
So much information, it's more like a product training video than a review. Superbly done! Can't wait to get a go in a new S4.
+James Rothwell in ur service ! :)
Your reviews are really detailed and appreciated. Keep it up man.
Keep supporting Autogefuehl
great review Thomas! never disappointed with your car reviews :)
+Tiny King its good to hear. Thanks for the motivation!!!
Thomas, it would be the Avant version for me! Unfortunately I am sure it won't be making its way to the USA! It is such a clean attractive looking car. Love it!
After 3 GTIs and an R, this is my next ride. Can't wait.
One thing your videos really don't get enough credit for is your information section, very in depth and useful. As for the video itself, I must say I prefer the A4/S4 in a sedan shape, as a station wagon the proportions look a bit strange to me. The quilt stitching on the seats looks amazing, not something I would expect in a S4.
+Marius thx marius!
The styling of this car and pretty much ALL Audi vehicles is always spot on. They definitely take less is more to the next level with very clean and smooth, simplistic styling. I look forward to seeing if we get the RS4 or the S5 Sportback here in the US, otherwise I will most definitely be getting the S4 or even the RS3 if they would ever officially announce it.Excellent review of the S4 Thomas. You definitely cemented it's position on my list of potential Audi's for me in 2017.
Autogefühl 100%! Great review as always Thomas! Please review the new S5 Cabrio when it comes out.
sure! S5 Coupe review coming up soon
DJ Thomas in the A/C House. AHAH great review as always. love the understated presence of the sedan.
+Mr Tickles love to hear that, spread the word for us!
'I don't have to explain this performance that much' 👌👍. You do a fine job! Great review.
The reason they allow you to prevent the middle rear seat from accessing the trunk is to allow for valet mode, quite useful if you don't want anyone to go inside your trunk, as well as your glove department box.
What a legend Thomas is. Can we have him reviewing houses, girlfriends, jobs etc?
🤣
Your reviews are the best! I just got the new a4 fully loaded.Its amazing
thanks keep following us!
The best, most thorough and enjoyable reviews on You Tube!! Excellent!!
+Joe dobrich thank you spread the word!
Before I started watching Autogefühl I did not know how important it was for the car door to make a solid sound when it closes, Lol. Thank you, Thomas!
=)
Great car!
Great review!
Great Thomas!
I like more limousine version especially smaller black grill with audi logo.
Overall looks more slick.
DJ Thomas in the AC House :) Liked it :) Keep up the good work!
+Kemal Silivrili appreciated!
Hope I can own an S4 some day.
hard work is the key hole to Audi S4
Shouldn't be too hard, just wait for 2-3 years and you can get a used one for under 50k
+Brownie how much is it for ? 55-60k ?
My friend bought his 2013 Audi S4 for 32k last month.
+Brownie Great deal, how much is it brand new for ? here in India it's about 60lakh that is near 58k
Always Great review from Thomas!
love your wording and looking into details.
I have B8.5, now after watching your review, I am liking the new model.
Good review. Somebody ran a light totalling my brand new (3K miles) 18 TT RS. As a "replacement", I bought a Mythos Black Premium Plus with Black Optic, S Sport Pkg, Nav Pkg, and Nappa Leather. I love the car. Not as violent as the TT RS but very competent handling with enough power. I think I like the diff and the quattro set up in the S4 over the TT RS.
Hello Thomas, Excellent work as usual.
How would you rank the interior noise levels of the S4, A4, and S3 sedans you recently tested? Thanks!
Amazing job, amazing review. You explained a lot about the car. The only thing missing, imho, was a comparison of the previous gearbox (dual clutch) with the new one. Thanks for the review.
thanks! yeah indeed I left out that one. Gets a converter gearbox now!
And for some this changes the character of the car immensely. The ZF 8 is an amazing gearbox, we can't deny this fact, but it is still not as sharp as the Audi's double clutch option. Also, the fact that Audi does not offer a manual anymore will be a problem for a segment of this market. Some car enthusiasts would never buy an auto. I personally wouldn't mind, but I know some current S4 owners that would never consider this new Audi as an option.
So now that it's turbo instead of supercharged. Do you notice any lag compared to the previous S4?
Hey there Thomas! I think the reason that they have the locking mechanism on the rear centre seat at 21.15 is so that if you wanted, you could fold the seats in a 60:40 split (folding in 2 pieces) instead of 40:20:40 split (folding in 3 parts)
Anyways, I enjoyed the video, keep up the good work!
Fantastic job! I always look forward to the next review!
we ll keep working for u =)
Always great videos on Autogefuhl and I enjoy them immensely. I've been an Audi follower for a long time. Their cars are built to superb standards and the sound of that 3 litre V6 sounds lovely. I am however not a fan of the new look of the A4 and the A5. It doesn't scream out at you in the way the old B8 A4 with LEDs and of course the A5 did... Still. Nice cars.
great to hear that thx !
Great job bro! As always.....!!
thx buddy!
Best review I've ever seen. Thanks!
Thanks a lot man!
The new AUDI S4 is the best car for everyday use and sporty trips !!
Really like the design of the new A4 !!
It´s understatement ;)
I really like avant version, nice review thank you Thomas your for hard work.
teşekkür!
Another great review. Avant in blue looks superb.
Autogefuhl, always high quality 60 fps videos with in depth thoughts. If i have a criticism, that is you dont pay enough attention to the door bins, from practical point of view. it'd be rather nice to include some kind of durability score, if the car has some quality issues like frequent gear box issues, engine issues or some kind of technical defect. Something like that (although sometimes i suppose its not possible since u review only brand new cars). Aaaand maybe testing the sound system.
Other than that everything is perfect, i hope you respect my opinion, not trying to offend you, just giving you a piece of advice.
Cheers! :) :) :)
+Andro Dimitrov sure always trying to improve!
Thomas - great review as usual! What would you buy, an RS3 or an S4? I'm torn between the two (hopefully an RS4 will come to the states to make my decision easier). Danke Schoen!
+Jim Ettamarna the 4 is more souvereign, as a tall person i love mid-size segment
Which car would you recommend more? Audi S3 Sedan or S4 Sedan? I am looking forward to get one of these but I can't make the choice. What are advantages/disadvantages? I'm interested in performance, engine/transmition and sound. I have doubts about the missing DSG in the S4. Any problems there?
size and feel is completely different. also the AWD systems are completely different. drive one of each and you'll know which one you want right away.
+ms3er Thanks for your answer. I have a S3 pre facelift right now and I am a bit disappointed compared to my TT I had before because the feeling on the road is very different. But the TT was not a car for daily routine.
So nice. .....sleek and classy. .....a dream car right there.
Just one remark and one question:
The fact that the estate is a little slower than the sedan has little to do with the CW value (up to 100 km/h no significant difference). The real reason that it is a little slower is that the estate is heavier than the sedan (1675 kg vs 1630 kg).
Q.: how does this car compare to the Mercedes c450/c43 Amg that you tested not so long ago? Which has your preference?
Thanks
+reurt1 thanks good point. Got the wrong info there then. Tough decision with c450 / c43. Both great cars, i like the styling of the merc better in front and interior, also the fact i can go without leather. S4 has better rear styling, more refined interior (merc still
Good ofc) but u have to pick at least part leather - dealbraker
great video, how would the manual trans in this car look ( I feel like the center console would look different )?
Thomas, from your comparison of the S4 to the S5 Sportback, which model is more practical? Which model is more comfortable? Which model is more fun to drive?
not much difference. Pick the form u wanna have. A5 of course is more versatile in the trunk than A4 sedan
Check ua-cam.com/video/9Nt5jGvheIc/v-deo.html
I've never seen anyone review a car in such detail.. well done sir keep up the great work! "DJ Thomas in the AC house" hahaha
+Azim K thank you so much!! Dj Thomas will return ;)
Amazing as always Thomas! Such a joy to what!
Can you tell me which lens/camera your "team" uses to film those amazing shots? Or is it a secret to success?
Ha ha, nothing but you to make an in depth car review interesting!
+Alexandre Neto thanks and spread the word for us! Its pana gh4 btw
As usual solid unbaised review. 👍👍
Danke Thomas great review as always! What about the transmission compared to the "dsg" in an S3 for example? Thanks!
Well I prefer the converter gearboxes somehow
Finally! Thanks for the great review!
I'm having a bunch of trouble deciding between the standard S suspension or the adaptive suspension. How do you choose between those 2. I am planning on getting the sport diff... but am not sure about any other options.
Glen Shortliffe What for? You could invest the money for additional assistance systems.
Great detailed review as always, Thomas. I have a question about the load width of the Avant cargo area. Do you have the dimensions and would you think a 4' x 8' (121.92 cm x 243.84 cm) sheet of plywood would fit, flat or even slanted? We get the Allroad here in the US, but I'm assuming the interior would be the same as the Avant. Thanks'!
+astrogen1960 thanks! Yes allroad is the avant. Hmm u have to check the dimension sheet for that
Before watching this review I have been dead set on waiting for the diesel crisis to end here in the states so I can get a A6 TDI, but now I have to saw this new S4 is on the map and could very well end up being my choice. I loved this review and everything was shown and explained perfectly. Maybe now it will be a Merlin Pearl (purple) S4 that will be sitting at my house instead of a A6 in the future.
glad we could help Robert :)
Love the autobahn parts in Autogefühl, especially in an Audi.
Good to hear, thank you! :)
DJ Thomas in the AC house lololol. great review once again.
+sirbungobeats hehe
I hope you do the S5 soon, was going to get one this year, the older model, but then they dropped the redesign, so now I have to wait till spring 2017 here in the US. :( Great review by the way, thanks for all the info and insight.
That V6 sounds really nice.
I really like the more elegant styling of the avant more in that color and with the chrome but I would like that styling but then as a sedan :) Great video Thomas:)
+Isaiah Deshazier agree! :)
l have ran out of superlatives for car reviews Thomas,l like the black styling package on the S4 looks very different,but as you say it's very expensive basic then add options it's mega expensive,but the S3 sedan is a worthy in house rival?
Is it very difficult to drift in an Audi S4 with the Quattro?
Thanks for showing its left-lane prowess. Though, taking A67 would be an even better place to go vmax. I make the trek from Friedberg and Kaiserslautern rather frequently and the A67 is great!
this car is perfect
Another comprehensive review there Thomas. Good looking car but have to comment exterior bodywork more like a major update than a brand new series. Interior has design cues taken off late 70's Audi 100.
thanks for the feedback !
I've watched both this review and your mb c450. Interested to hear you weigh in on the comparison in terms of performance, comfort (ride quality. suspension, quiet cabin) and infotainment. Thanks in advance.
thanks! They are both very good, its really a matter of preference
I wish I was behind the wheels on that Autobahn part. Amazing power!
Michl, our cameraman at this review, was and he was amazed!
The old A4 didn't have retractible screen.:) But very, very good review!
Those seats are gorgeous!
Great Review for a great car, both version of cars are beatiful.
thx buddy!
Thank u Thomas for your great effort, I wonder if you have any review about Citroen C4 grand picasso or at least if you recommend a specific channel reviewed this car I'll be great appreciated.
+Magedion F hey, we have the normal c4 in a review, seen that?
+Autogefühl Yes I saw it but it is not C4 grand picasso its totally different car. Your review for the C4 facelift and C4 cactus.
Thank you once again for the detailed review!
Excellent review, Thomas! I would choose the Avant with Daytona grey and black optics. ;)
+hnonline111 thx! Evil stYle :)
+Autogefühl Exactly! :D I would rather choose Sepang (or Thomas ;)) blue, but I've heard they don't offer it on this one. :(
17:38 Thank you for being informative *and* funny, Thomas lol.
always a pleasure!
Expected price in Denmark is starting at 120.000 euro...... I hate Danish tax!
Great review as always :)
just wow
kim frederiksen Similar price here in Finland , Perkele!!
great video lots of details definitely making this My next car cant wait
thanks marco!
Locking the ski hatch is for when you give the car to valets so they can't gain access to the trunk. The NMS Passat and most other VWAG products have this feature.
According to the sound and visual of this video, I think it actually matches the performance of the previous 7 speed dsg, not bad.
The new S4 seems nice but I really don't think it represents a noticeable improvement over the current model.
+JosephM1750 yea I agree
you work a lot ! great work great review
+Nassim TERKI it's our passion so we don't have the feeling of working:) btw thank you m8!
Really nice cars. I would go for the estate version, in this blue. Alcantara seats and sedan wheels :) and the black glossy finish.
Thanks God Audi keeps clean lines and perfectly defined volumes , not like the Mercs Hyundai bulbous lines.
BTW that Misano Red is awesome !
The rims of the avant version have a very good design !
Hi , Tomas， I heard of AUDI B9 S4 has stopped product??? Means no more??????In German. Is it true?
a lot of models are not sold atm due to emissions test change
I have just bought one in Chine......white one with carbon fiber innterior. Looks cool, but the color , Im gonna make a change...
S3 vs S4?
Would you sacrifice horsepower and an extended rear (for better comfortable passengers).
But with that sacrifice, you can gain a more sporty look from the S3 (and maybe put that extra money into a engine tune to get more horsepower).
Who wins?
seen our s3 review ?
*****
I have.
hmm torn between this or a boxster s any recomendations?
oh wow thats a decision ... :) Want more comfort or more sportiness? Want convertible or not? Those are the main decisions =)
Autogefühl > saabkyle04
Calm down ,embrace the fact and enjoy the show...
from my point of view they both compare cars so as a viewer i think that the Autogefühl reviews are way more professional,detailed and they are managing to surprise their fans,I woke up this morning and seen the s4 video ,i was like wow ,not even audi.de won't let you configure this car. i really enjoyed this video learned lots of things about s4.Who knows what will they upload tomorrow. Car reviews vs Car reviews i have the right to compare them and i vote for Autogefühl .Be kind stop calling people moron or thickheaded , eat your donuts drink your soda and keep watching keeping up with the kardashians. That's what you do where you from.
Check out MegaRetr
не все говорят по русски, хотя не плохой канал.
+leBron james enjoy the show of someone talking in the whole review 😂😂😂. Saabkyle04 all the way.
I am waiting for a comparison between my B8 S4 and this new model. I can't see there being much of a difference in performance and sound. Supercharged vs turbo. Turbo will be a bit more efficient.
Hard to decide if it's worth the upgrade or not yet.
yikes double the price. is that m3 territory (in the U.S.)? i still have a weakness for the s4.
B9 S4 ON SALE WHEN
& great video - definitely buying!
usually I like the sedans, but with the A4 it's really difficult to choose between the sedan and the estate...and what I really like in Audi and VW cars in general the rectangular air vents, they are much beter than the circular once in Mercedes ( the details make the difference ; )
Love the review. Do you know how much of the engine sound is coming from the audio system?
thanks! I didnt know the S4 used a sound amplifier?
+Autogefühl The previous generation had what I believe Audi calls a "Sound Actuator". Regardless; the new car does sound nice.
yeah that stuff exists in the VAG, for example used with Skoda Octavia RS. Havent heard of that Audi used it yet!
Very good review, me I will chose the Estate Version because I'm in family mode :-)
Is it possible that C43 (C450) does 0-60 in 4.5 and S4 does it in 4.7? I would think S4 should be quicker given it's supposed lower drag coefficient and lower weight.
Voycodin because Audi and VW always overestimate their times
The rear seat ski hatch is lockable so that the trunk remains secure when desired.
I find it very odd that they don't have a flat bottom steering wheel standard in the S4, yet in the pre-face lift and the face lift S3 you get one.
nice clear,professional reviews
thanks, keep supporting us!
OK... as you suggested to me a while ago, just sit back relax and enjoy the long review. I tried, but you prolong these car reviews longer than they should. Can you please put a time stamp in the description as a break down of the car review so I can just watch the parts I'm interested in?
again I can recommend the full length as that's why we are putting so much effort in. However, for you we have also put in timestamps, just check the video description.
+Autogefühl keep it up, longer = better
longer duration gives a potential buyer more insight into a product,
something which is really annoying with short, 5-10 minute uploads
Great review! Convinced me to try the S4 to replace our a4 allroad.
+Tom Johnson thx! Allroad is more comfortable though ;)
why don't you come do some reviews on British roads with our potholes and wafer thin tarmac :)
