Perfect timing! I literally been watching your individual videos on both of these cars, but this video is perfect for me. Im definitely deciding between the two right now
One of the best comparisons of equivalent cars! The quattro in winters made me pick the S5 ~ no regrets (and the practicality of the additional cargo is a real surprise)
s5 is great, but imo the m340 is simply a better car. it has more hp, has newer tech, b58 is reliable and has a much better mpg (33 on highway is nuts for a 380hp inline 6). It is also a awd, not as good as the quattro but still capable of handling most road conditions with good winter tires.
S5 has better interior, better sound system, better quality, looks more expensive, more comfortable, more options, more features, looks better,faster mod for mod (off the shelf tunes) ,BETTER SEATS….. and sounds better
I tested both, ended up picking Audi s5 that 20 hp is not gonna change my mind. Less then 500 dollars 034 tune and you can get 420hp. S5 looks better especially if you get it with prestige the one i got . Laser headlight . Black optics. S package.
The m340i is better in almost every respect from all the research I've done. It's a fair bit quicker, better gearbox, better traction, handles better, is more efficient, better mpg, better interior, and they're both about as comfy as each other. Oh and its cheaper too which is odd
Did we watch the same video? S5 has better interior, better sound system, better quality, looks more expensive, more comfortable, more options, more features, looks better,faster mod for mod (off the shelf tunes) ,BETTER SEATS..... and sounds better 😂
We will see how this comparison looks once the new S5 arrives to the US, I have a M340i for the time being and like it very much but that new S5 looks pretty good too.
Audi is more practical with the sportback design. Better comparison would be to the M440 that’s also a sportback. M340/440 for the engine and performance edge.
People fall for the 3-series mostly because ot track reviews and dynamics on the track (limit). A5 acutally are build on MQB evo (shared with Porsche) with double wishbone front suspension, sounds better, looks better and interior is better quality. I choose between these two last year. I got the Audi. On the street S5 is not worse than m340i decpite is 2016-model year so almost 10 years old + now everybody drives BMW`s wichs is kinda boring. I like to be a bit different always. My father have X3. Modern BMW`s feels very generic if you dont mod them both nside and outside.
I believe the biggest lies spread by car companies is that large touch screens in vehicles represent modern advancement. I will always choose Audi for providing me with physical AC buttons and a gear selector stick.
Isn't really different?! The brand new 2025 Audi A5/S5 is completely different from the 2024 and should've been compared with the M440i. If it came down to sportbacks I think the new S5 is the better of the 2. Aesthetically it looks much better and for the most part it maintains its luxury whereas BMW seems to be on a downward trend in numerous ways outside of its performance and driving dynamics which is still number 1... That is till MAGMA finally comes out.

Nice! It's a toss up, I'd probably go M340!

BMW has awd as well! Glad you enjoy it!
Not equivalent. S5 = 4 series.
s5 is great, but imo the m340 is simply a better car. it has more hp, has newer tech, b58 is reliable and has a much better mpg (33 on highway is nuts for a 380hp inline 6).
It is also a awd, not as good as the quattro but still capable of handling most road conditions with good winter tires.
Both awd systems will be about the same, I wouldn't say one is better.
S5 has better interior, better sound system, better quality, looks more expensive, more comfortable, more options, more features, looks better,faster mod for mod (off the shelf tunes) ,BETTER SEATS….. and sounds better
@@CasperfromChi fr , these bmw ppl.
Love your reviews and comparisons! Cant wait for you guys to review the new S5 thats coming to US around Q2-Q3 of 2025!
I'm sure we'll be able to get one to review!

I just reviewed at 2025 and it's the same car!
The Audi has 349 horsepower! Great review btw
That is right, must have misspoke! I said 349 in the full review
I like how the euro new S5 sportback looks.
Cool, not something we’ll see lol
@BrosFOURRSpeed we will get it as a 2026 model were odd numbers are petrol and even numbers are electric
@@Joe-eg7ml cool!
great comparison!
Could you do the same for 540i and A6 55tfsi?
I'll write it down and see!
Audi is more practical with the sportback design. Better comparison would be to the M440 that’s also a sportback. M340/440 for the engine and performance edge.
I could do that comparison as well!
I'm a VW guy so S5 all the way. How would both of these do in a drag/roll?
I'm not sure on that! Probably very similar, but not sure!
the m340i is pretty far ahead in both theres loads of videos out there but they both can be tuned well
@@Clipzxoh you have links? The 340 has so a much bigger following with tuning and power.
Performance: Beamer
Daily comfort: Audi
BMW is pretty comfortable as well.

Thanks for sharing!
I don’t care for the styling on the bmw, if the Audi had the hp of the M340, the bmw wouldn’t stand a chance… I went with a S5 coupe
Glad you enjoy that!
Drive both, pick bmw cause it's way better, the end
Glad you enjoy it!
The bmw is made in Mexico while the S5 is made in Germany/Europe.
Cool.
What is your point?
@ yeah, doesn’t mean anything.
@@sergiogarcia9822Audi is better everything that’s the point

Amen. I wish BMW stuck with that.
not sure how a feature is a lie..but that's why there are options!
Maybe they'll change it back!
S5
Why?
I like the style
I like the style
Shouldnt the S5 sports back be compared to the M440i gran coupe instead? S5 and 340i are not even the same class
Lots of sources show these are competitors.
I could make another comparison with those two.
M340i is faster and nicer let's be honest here people
Glad you like it!

Not sure why you bring that up, I wasn't comparing this to the 2025 model..
25 us model isn't b10 we get b10 in 26.
