At first glance the Audi A5 may look familiar, that’s because it shares the same chassis design as the Audi A4 Saloon. However, the A5 isn’t competing against its saloon brother, but rather stiff competition from the BMW 4 Series and Mercedes C-Class Coupe. So in what areas does the A5 shine? Find out all my thoughts in this in-depth review.

This car looks far better in the flesh than on photos and videos, believe me. They don't do it justice unfortunately.

@MatNull 4 года назад

yess I own one and it feels and looks 20x better than this video makes it feel

@gilgameshthekingofweebs5924 4 года назад

True, I always found these dull in videos, until I saw one irl.

@emil7088 4 года назад

So true

@silence9966 3 года назад

Lol the car isn't made out of flesh 😂

@isea_ 3 года назад

@@MatNull assuming you bought the auto due to it being a luxury car hows the paddle response from pulling to actual gear change i plan to get this over the older one mostly due to the better interior. but if ima go with auto i'd hope for quick paddles

@Zerofightervi 7 лет назад

Does Matt have a problem with hydration? He's obsessed with one litre water bottles, & stuffing them really aggressively into small spaces.

@1ajayc 5 лет назад

what a stupid thing to say

bruh, he’s just trying to show off the practicality coz he’s an awesome reviewer 😏

@somchaiduncan6024 4 года назад

He doesn’t have a problem with these stupid things but what’s the point being a reviewer if your not going to talk about good a bad things that people who is looking to buy a car might be obsessed with stuffing half liter bottles in small spaces

@d0718 7 лет назад

C-class isn't better (maybe it looks better but that's it). I've sold one after 2 months of ownership. It's not that fun to drive, the 2.1 diesel in c250d is very noisy, rear seats are very cramped, and infotainment system is a pain to use. Although it's very comfortable on motorways and it's very easy to drive. I'd say if you want a fun car get a 2-series or 4-series with a petrol engine (230i/m240i/430i/440i). If you want a comfy cruiser get the A5 with a V6 diesel and Quattro. If you want a good looking car which feels most luxurious then get a C-class coupe, but from my experience I suggest to avoid the rattly 2.1 diesel and rather get a petrol C300 (or, even better, a C43 or C63)

@carwow 7 лет назад

Interesting to hear your experiences Dmitry! We're with you on the 2.1 and infotainment system though. Some say that the CEO of carwow just bought a C Coupe… and that it has a V8 in it and a stripe down it.

@d0718 7 лет назад

carwow That's the C-class I would be happy to own myself as well... I'm hoping to see you reviewing your CEO's car!

@carwow 7 лет назад

We're working on it… he keeps saying something about wanting new rear tyres after Mat's done with it

@d0718 7 лет назад

carwow hmm... I wonder why is that. I'm sure Matt wouldn't do anything stupid in that car would he. Just normal review and a fuel economy test.

@crimsonstang 7 лет назад

Audi's design looks much better and practical than Merc and BMW in my opinion.

@dchris91 7 лет назад

love your reviews and love the scenery you film them. good work Mat!

@Firemarioflower 7 лет назад

Ultimate perfection, improved.... Evolution is the way, well done VAG. Again another fantastic timeless beauty. Fabulous elegance. Supertight interior, dashing dashboard! You feel at home immediatly, it's modern, clean and as crisp as the depature lounge of a Swiss airport.... Only trouble: That ipad screen.... DAMNIT AUDI! If you want to compete with Mercedes and BMW you should integrate that. Because than those 2 other brands have a big disavantage over you.

@miskatonic6210 7 лет назад

Firemarioflower I don't feel at home in this cold, practical environment. I feel like at work. But you appear to feel at home in a swiss airport.

@Danial0152 7 лет назад

the sat nav screen should be integrated where the climate control is, rather than cheap iPad screen which is horrid

@Firemarioflower 7 лет назад

TheClubshaker On that i agree

@livc444111 7 лет назад

The best thing would be to win this car on a competition then sell it and buy something better and more interesting. Turd of a car.

@stevengerrardO8 5 лет назад

Started watching this guy as I search for my first car(BMW420d/AudiTTS), and pleasantly surprised to see one non BMW video where the BMW`s infotainment system isnt mentioned by Mat

@Philzifyy 7 лет назад

I bet the S5 will be great. Also will you ever do a review of the S8+? If not I'll happily review one on your behalf.

@vladvulcan 7 лет назад

I love the Audi, and you, Mat, are one of the best reviewers

@senseihEnRY16 7 лет назад

to be honest the only Audis that i can recognized which one is new and which one is old is the TT, the R8, and the most beautiful 4 door coupe ever, the RS 7

@Heellp 7 лет назад

Matt why not 2.0 TFSI Quattro :( btw am big fan of your reviews from Saudi cheers mate ;)

@carwow 7 лет назад

The biggest seller in the UK will be the 2.0 diesel so that's what Audi will spec in its press cars. Sorry!

@tepahu1 4 года назад

I hear you, who wants a 2.0L diesel Audi? :(

@monkeypunker 4 года назад

7:11 you will notice - looking at the speedometer - an actual speed decrease, so a negative acceleration during shifting. Now is that normal?

@seinsmeld13 7 лет назад

The A5 comes one way here in Canada and that's a 2 litre turbo AWD. Thankfully Audi doesn't send the diesel..........

@sic22l 7 лет назад

Why? they're excellent grand tourers.

@6ec6YRFPTcC 7 лет назад

it looks kind of odd, like the hood is about a foot too long. idk, maybe it looks better in person, I haven't seen one yet. I'm sure this will look better in convertible

@olivertaylor3999 2 года назад

My dad has just got one of these I absolutely love it and if you get a good spec great review

@seinsmeld13 7 лет назад

It's a 2 seater unless you have two small kids. I'd buy an S5 instead. It's a great looking car I'll give it that.

@LetlotloLaBokoni 7 лет назад

Can we look forward to a review of the A5 Sportback sometime in the new year and perhaps a group test with an S5 Sportback and a 440i gran coupe. That would be fantastic, considering getting one of those on 2017

@StephenButlerOne 7 лет назад

My BiL has a 1999 A4 years back, and it's very much evolution than revolution in the interior department. They are very BMW in their adventurous department.

@nicolaponomarenko3116 7 лет назад

You said the car you were driving was frontwheel drive and on the launch you had front then rearwheelspin. I think you are driving a Quattro. If you are going to lay, do it well. Sorry for the bad english

@carwow 7 лет назад

+Nicola Ponomarenko errrrrrrrrr no. Car was fwd. Said so on the press sheet. And show me where the quattro badge is...

@chopang11 7 лет назад

Hope you do a review of new A5 sportback too, i know it quit look the same as this but is it worth to buy?

@JamesTTL1 7 лет назад

@carwow 7 лет назад

+James Brah yes you can - but they should be standard if a car costs 40k

@6md 7 лет назад

@pradeepmagan6951 7 лет назад

Hi, why does no one do the Moose test and also you quote how much pollution the car releases - is this what the car company tells you or do you get independent test done - after the lies VW Group did, you can't any car company as they all do it to some extent. Would like to see moose and brake test on future programs

@derc5284 7 лет назад

For traveling through the country, mostly freeways, should I go for the audi sportback or A5 coupe? Also what is the ideal engine for that? And should I go with traction at four?

@InnerLuminosity 2 года назад

Coupe

@YOHOHOto 7 лет назад

Hey Cawow, please review perhaps the cheapest car on the UK market right now - the Dacia ( any model you like) . Just curious to see an honest review of such a cheap bargain.

You know telling someone not to buy a feature because it feels "weird" isn't a valid argument.

@carwow 7 лет назад

+Vincent Sellar okay smarty pants try saying: 'Avoid the optional variable rate steering beucuase with it fitted there doesn't seem to be a correlation between how much you turn the wheel and how much the car turns. And your muscle memory makes you feel all confused - a bit like when you get on an escalator which isn't working but your body initially responds as if it is. " Then pull a perfectly timed diagusted face to amuse your audience.....How long did all this take you? Yeah exactly... Too long to fit with this snappy part of the review. That's why I summed up the whole sensation as 'Wierd"

1:16 what the heck is moving in the background??

@bodrulm1 7 лет назад

That boot is nowhere near as big or accessible as the 4 series Gran Coupe. Back seats are smaller too. It looks worse than the outgoing A5 - the effortless curves of the old one is lost, the new one has too many sharp lines and looks more Japanese. 4 series drives and handles better, better steering, RWD fun. 4 series is the better car. I can see no reason to pick this A5? It's a step backward for Audi.
