We’ve finally got our hands on the new Audi S3, so you know what that means… It's hot hatch drag race time!
We’ve got the new S3 going up against the BMW M135i and AMG A35, and once you look at the stats, you'll realise it's too close to call!! All three have 2-litre turbocharged petrol engines, they’re all automatic, and they’ve all got AWD.
But that’s not all! Even their power outputs are almost identical. While the Audi S3 can produce 310hp, both the A35 & M135i can produce 306hp. And when it comes to torque, both the Audi & AMG can put down 400Nm, while the BMW has 450Nm!
Do we have a potential dead heat on our hands? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

I’m looking forward to seeing the Chiron or the Laferrari against the Porsche 911 turbo s
YES!
They're trying to find a contact to a Chiron owner you'll see it soon enough.
Bro there is a beast in Porsche
Porsche 918 Spyder
The 911 has no chance against a Chiron, it may have a better launch but the Chiron has double the power to weight

@Abra Xas nether would BMW... what’s your point?
Crazy how similar these three are. Now we're just waiting for the new RS3.
New RS3 will destroy the A45s
looking forward for being the next solo E85 mod destroying modded top of the line performance rivals
@@Cossy1979Uk Yes.
Yeah Me Too
@@TheTechGiantUA-cam absolute rubbish. The a45 is a horrible chav car and is a silly price with nothing special about it, it ps just a tuned 2 litre. From a modified perspective it’s very limited, max really is 500bhp, the rs3 can go over 1000bhp. Interior of the a45 is dreadful.
Understeer on the rs3 is ver6 small. In fact the a45 is worse for fo4 understeer
Let’s be honest, the bmw vs audi vs mercedes races are always the most suspenseful ones
Obviously, because its always the most important race lol.
It is true
And audi takes it most of the times. Then mercedes and bmw never takes it.
Nah when they get the E/S AMG classes to race the M3/M5s Comps and the RS5s/RS7s. That's tense.

Matt - All great drag races mate! It would also be cool if we could see a slalom, autocross or road course competition too at some point. Thx!!
I remember matt since his old videos from car buyer, he is so talented in his work. And also he is very passionate about what he does. Bless!
So Audi, BMW & Merc have made - essentially - the same car. Talk about today's cars being interesting...
I know what the hell is the point
It's what the market dictates though people buy these cars, it's just about money. I would also hazard a guess regulations also has a big say, if you took all the badges off, you'd barely be able to tell them apart. It's stuff like this why I don't have a new car
For real, i have the f40 m135i and it’s so boring.
The new cars are getting more and more similar and boring to drive.
With the audi being faster
The most stupid thing about it is that the old M140 which had the monstrous B58 engine had a starting price or around 30 grand which was the same as the golf R and S3, and that car used to bully the other two. Makes no sense this M135i 🤦♂️

A drag race between the new Golf R and the S3 would be interesting, to see if the Golf R really has 10 hp more.🤔
Came to watch this after matts review of the R. Definitely need a drage race with all 4
He made one, and the golf r thrashed the other 3 german cars
@@omarmandooh saying that the Golf has more power....VWs claims of 320hp are not to be believed
Don’t look on Google cuz
S3 2021 has 336BHP
And 2021 golf r has 316BHP
It’s a sedan too so it’ll rip apart the r by train lengths

Imagine how a 300hp car would sound like 15 years ago
It would have a V8 N/A engine most likely and it would sound absolutely bonkers
.
E46 m3
1jz vvti with a factory sports pipe, can confirm sounds good.
In 1987ish the first bmw 750 was launched with a 5 liter v12 and that thing had 300hp and 450nm... We have come a long way especially since forced induction became mainstream
Nice one again. But I am curious: Which tires did the cars have? The breaking test was more of a test for those than for the cars themselves with this weather...
Matt, you should do a R53 GP1 / R56 GP2 / F56 GP3 drag race, or maybe just the regular mini cooper S versions of all 3.
There’s not much point in manual mode if you don’t actually have to change gear...
All it means is, you can override the automatic upshift. Which in a sense is "manual".
Absolutely it’s rubbish, since the gearbox will always shift before you you ask it manually. Destroying fun of going towards the red red line, when you want to.
Also you can short-shift easily, shifting at the same time or just after the gearbox. Not so clever manual option.
@@205500830 It shifts to the next gear only at the red line. Why stress the powertrain for nothing? Most of these cars have limiters and the car would not go past the rev limit anyways. See what happened to the BMW. Audi's approach is the most efficient here. You can still manually change the gear before the red line if you want to but when you hit the red line and you don't change it, the car does it. Clever manual mode. My 2005 Audi A6 does the same and I love it.
@@KeliK1 it’s your car, you should be able to do what you want with it even though it’s bad for it. You paid over £38k to drive it properly in manual mode😂
He had it in dynamic, in sport u change it urself
The 1 series looks like shite. Bring back RWD and straight 6
The back actually looks nice but yeah the front...
Bmw is shit so theres that
@@homiixide starting from the G generation i’d have to agree with you. But anything before that is great to me, barring the turbo 4 cylinders in the F generation.
Im sure BMW wont bring it back because you said so. It is what it is so get over it. People banging on about the same shit
It isn’t just the 1 series now. 😅
Would love to see a three way review comparison on all these cars!
Matt Watson Man of Steel: Dances with hands off the steering wheel at 120mph in pish weather 😂
Manual mode: requires driver to shift themselves
Audi: “no”
Same with Jaguar , it would automatically shift up before limiter.
In my RS3, if I enter manual mode by using a paddle, then trans will still shift up. If I enter manual mode by pushing gear lever to left, then I will bounce off limiter. My standard sequence is therefore pull back on lever to enter Sports mode, push lever to left to entry manual. I hope this helps.
@@t105x104 same on Polo GTI
@@adimazga Which Jaguar? My XKRS, as well as my XJ 575, hold the gear in Dynamic mode...

Can't Wait To See About The Performance Of Brand New RS3
It will be probably cheaper and quicker than the A45s plus 5 zylinders
Please review the Cupra Formentor. I'm looking to buy it and you're one of the few honest reviewers 🙂
Audi increased the ability and power of the engine so it is the most powerfull racing unit
I love the looks of the A35 in and out 👌🏼
They’re so high up. Thought I was looking at crossovers when I seen the thumbnail
The A35 ground clearance is only 113mm. Any lower and you'd never get it over a speed hump.
Xenon0000000000001 a35 is the only one that still looks like a hatch. The other two tho🤔🤔🤔
I thought I was only one!
Same! Especially that Audi looks like q3
please make one race with old cars : Bmw e46 318i ( 2.0l ) vs Audi a3 1.8T , Vs Mercedes c200 petrol
Hie Mat I just hope you can show us which is the fastest suv in a quarter mile.. lamboghini Urus, Bmw X6m competition, Jeep trackhawk and others...
How bout an X5M comp vs GLE63 vs RSQ8, that would be interesting
And also very ugly
RSQ8 shouldn't be compared with X5 and GLE RSQ7 is their rival correct if im wrong
@@twixxer.6196 But there's no such thing as an RS Q7.
X6M comp, gle 63s coupe and rsq8 then
@@adnanalhan4879 WAAAAIITTTT!!
X5M (NO COMPETITION), GLE63 ( no S model) and RSQ8
*Great Video as always. In my oppinion, The Audi is the best looking* 👍
Yo stop being in every car video on UA-cam
Audi maybe best looking outside, but the interior is the worst looking of them in my mind
Mercedes ia the best looking, but Audi ia the best performance
What kinda stuff you smoking sir?
Your taste is as impeccable as your spelling. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Loved it, highly entertaining thanks
2:05
Me: Wow now that's not bad compared to the Audi sound.
The Wind: gotcha!
7:12 look in the background...
Oh god the ugliness of that front end, even from those few frames is overwhelming
@Daniel The BMW
Oh a BMW
its the m440i
@k. 743 it’s not that bad bro,but the new m4 is a beast
They all sound crap, gone are the days of Sebring, Milltek and Janspeed !
getting a 3rd party exhaust is a must at this point
@@Chris-go7ge There will be some back peddling for sure. Its a monumental ask.
With such close stats it would be interesting on which tyres they stay.
Back then, this channnel had about 600k subs, so I subscribed thinking that this channel is quite underrated...
But Now... Wow... I am so proud to see this channel go up to 4 million...
As someone who bought a new S3 three weeks ago I quite enjoyed watching that.
Me too 😉, hope the sound was better tho 🤷🏼♂️

I would like to see W211 E55 AMG compared with newer cars.
Greetings from the crown princehamdafazza68@gmail.com 🇦🇪🇦🇪✍️ okay
Now i'd Like to See those Cars against the old ones Like U actually did once with these 3 German Brands
That'd be amazing If U could do that💥💥💥
Love how the new s3 is a huge improvement from last gen 👍
Looks like a base model a3
@@City1Tiger huge improvement ? wtf are u talking about. The 8V-F is >>>> this rubbish sounding car xd (non opf version) and not really slower. The interior is much cheaper in the 8Y and also feels like.... damn seems you dont know how a 8V-F non opf with 310 hp sounds and feels like :S
Great video as always! Mat’s German accent is the highlight of the video!
Proud s3 owner here 🙋♂️
You know Mat is sitting in the strongest car... ALWAYS! I mean you get an idea of the result before the race even starts lol🤣🤣🤣
He does not win all the time. You clearly haven’t seen many videos.
Unless Yaini's there
I think he is usually in the newest car. But to be fair he's the face of the channel so he should be in the pre race favorite car for better content
Not always.
C43 vs M340i vs Audi S4! Thanks for these videos!
Hey, Mat, no offers to host a relaunch of Top Gear yet? I'd say you would be a perfect match for the show! Thanks for some great content!
1:22 Mat casually blowing the cover of us leaving in the Matrix lmao
I was watching since 9am older carwow videos waiting for the new one :)
Please race, the M8 comp gran coupe, AMG gt63s 4 door, audi rs7 and Porsche panamera turbo e hybrid🙏
When are you pitting these against the Golf 8R.....epic race awaits💯🏁
If Audi failed again, my heart would break even more. Good job audi finally good stuff!!!
ya if audi loses in the rain, then whats the point of having the quattro
why would you care? shouldn't you as a consumer just get the best car and that's it?
I like audi
To be fair all the races so far have used the very best e63s and m5 comp agains standard non performancemodel rs6/7
@@KK001 I hope Audi comes out with performance versions of the RS6/7. To be honest it's not the reviewers fault because Audi doesn't have a performance model for their new cars. An interesting race would be the 2016/17 RS7 performance vs the new RS7.
I'd love to see you review a lotus!
I've recently had 2 races , in my focus RS , one from a dig against a bmw340i and a rolling race with an audi tts. I caned the bmw but the audi gave me a hiding. Would love to see you race these 3 and the outcome. Thanks for the show !
Wow. You must be very proud that you managed to beat an RWD car with less power from a dig with a AWD car with more power. good job, that really requires driving skills. I felt sick as I once saw the interior of an focus RS, horribly cheap. I bought an A35 AMG than.
CAN you do the same race but with the golf 8R please
1:13 for a second, I thought that was real 😅
Can't wait for RS3🔥🔥🔥🙆♂️
That S3 is just 😍
Ik 🔥
@@lordyacht really wanted to win that on BOTB
would like to see figure of eight lap tests would be a better display of chassis dynamics and power
All 3 cars are amazing however that s3 is quite impressive
I don‘t like the looks of the Audi.
@@maxmustermann318 i love the look
I think it could be faster. It is a lil bit of a shame that the other cars especially the bmw can hold on with more than 30 hp less.
@@mak252 wtf 4 hp less
@markyes you are a little know-it-all. In all of the comments you make the cars bad. you will never drive such a car
As you did E63s vs Logan to show the huge gap can you do something like Pista vs a hot hatch just to show how insanely quick supercars are?
This is regarding all break tests not this particular one: Have you ever thought of an external signal like a red light to tell everybody when to stop? There are some drivers that break a little early, because there's different opinions regarding when they cross the line. Just a thought.
I would like to see a drag race involving the kia stinger and its competition,that would make a great video
4:57
Mat: "You can thank me later for the bloody advert"
UA-cam: Here you go, an Audi advert mid-video.
Me: Thanks, Mat?
Skip to the end of the vid and restart no adds
Nice to see S3 continues to be quick and not dumbed down too much.👍

Great race!
I’d love to see an all hypercar race. That’ll be interesting.
but with the 900HP (or is it 1000 now?) M5 from the previous videos in it
Always like hatchbacks. I think they are practical, stylish and offer enough performance to put a smile on your face. Always like the Audi's hatchbacks and this S3 is much improved inside and out.
Imagine what the upcoming RS3 will do🔥🔥🔥
I like the new timing visuals!
I´m not sure about the english word for it, but it would be interesting how the cars would perform on a motor power teststation. VW & Co. are famous for having more power than officially announed, especially the cars for tests. I remember the last versions of GTI which have about 40hp more than it should have. So every tester says "Wow, it´s very fast for the (announced) HP".
Exhaust sound of the BMW remains Undefeated.
QUATTRO power...✌️...!
When are you going to do the same test but with the a45 S?
do your RS6 vs the custom BMW from a few days ago
Drag racing in the rain is like the Special Olympics.
audi is unbeatable in the rain and snow. in dry weather the bmw will be the clear cut winner
The S3 looks like a bloody crossover from the back
I love my S3 8V, the 2.0TFSI is incredible 🖤
