    I understand the logic behind this car, 99% people in the world don't need more perfomance than this car has.
    What I really don't understand is why it has to have the S4 badge, what in the actual fuck is the point of those fake exhausts and who thinks that fiddling with touch screens is more safe that using a controller while driving the damn car?

      I agree. Our head office recently renewed our fleet of cars for our consultants, but the drivers have complained of a lot of accidents and near misses because they are trying to use the touchscreen while driving. You can adjust a normal dial control or button without taking your eyes off the road, for simple tasks such as using the air conditioning or radio.

      I agree with you about the touch screen His point of saying it’s no different to when smartphones went that way doesn’t make sense as your not trying to use a smartphone while driving are you , the mmi controller is so natural to use while driving And doesn’t it make sense to have both so you have a choice ? It’s not like the replaced the area where the controller was with anything special to warrant not having it

    Thanks Joe, have been really enjoying your videos over the past few months, reminds me of watching Chris Harris when he started out. Been agonising over what to replace my daily Golf R Estate with which has been fantastic. Had narrowed it down to a 3 series touring and one of these. Loved the 3 series but ultimately ordered one of these purely because I got a bigger discount! Hoping I am not disappointed- keep up the great work!

    @alexcockram673 4 роки тому +1

    This is just a direct rival for the 335d/340d (it always was, even in petrol form, but more so now). Hard pill for Audi fans and maybe some previous S4 customers to swallow, but on the whole this will be a very savvy move for Audi. Most S4 customers (and any fast estate customers) want effortless, easily accessed performance, 'the' badge and a car that is monumentally easily to live with - the new S4 smashes these targets. Lease buyers will love this.

  • @chrisweir762
    @chrisweir762 4 роки тому

    Another great review Joe, always feel like I'm sitting shotgun :-)
    Nice car, but at 60k, I would want all new body panels with no fakery i.e. exhausts! Not keen on the touch screen either, looks like an afterthought, although all the manufacturers seem to be designing their cabins in this way.
    Bit of a step down haha, but wouldn't mind a review of the new Focus ST petrol. Preferably the estate, as I am contemplating one next year. Reviews of the estate seem few and far between, in fact I haven't seen any of the estate, only the hatch.
    Muchas gracias

    My biggest problem is that the s4, s6 and S7 all share the same engine, if they wanna use diesle in these s models then fine but they deffinetly should have used the 4 litre tdi that's used in the sq7 in the s6 and S7 to keep there power up compared to this s4 and they would not be to down on power compared to the old petrol s6 and S7

  • @TheMBCreative

    This or the Alpina D3 Joe? Really think the S4 is even more compelling as a Diesel. I always felt the S4 was rather dull in comparison to an 340i or C43 to be honest, I feel like the powerful Diesel will suit it better. Also I know the engine is an gem and I definitely like the enhanced sound. Nevertheless it´d be a D3 for me for sure!

    I agree with you Joe with regards to touch screens, and it’s not an age thing as I am Sebs age! I’ve driven several cars with touch screens and I think it’s pretty dangerous. At the minimum like BMW do, a controller and touch screen should be provided. A touch screen has its place, but when the car is stationary. Seb is a capable driver, but is everyone else who will be fiddling with these screens whilst driving?

    Why is there a giant iPad screen mounted to the fascia on a tiny pillar of plastic?
    Would it not be more aesthetically pleasing, not to mention have greater integrity, to have the touchscreen incorporated into the fascia moulding?
    This design makes the screen look like an afterthought, and appears to demand attention in the cabin.
    Some more conventional knobs and dials make adjusting the audio and climate controls a lot easier without having to remove your concentration from the road ahead, yet touchscreens with non-physical buttons seem to be making a precidence?

    Heavy car. The truth comes out three quarters of the way through the vidio. A mild hybrid, there's the problem all that extra engineering and battery. What a waste of time and money. Plus the extra co2 in production and rare earth metals used.
    Deisels are great for big mileages and every day driving with their huge slug of torque. Not everyone who wants an S4 is going to be a big mileage user so a big question hangs over how much trouble the DPF and AdBlue system is going be for low mileage use.
