It might be, but it'll take a beating, they've lasted up to 400,000 miles so far and counting, and if it were a "race war" on a single tank of gas, the Prius would sail by the Audi, BMW and Mercedes as they were all sitting on the side of the road out of gas, thus getting the last laugh. It's finely engineered, and no company on the planet has come close, this is why the Prius has been the #1 Hybrid. It's the car people love to hate, but no one can deny its perfect execution.
Tim S that's actually bullshit. Did you ever see the top gear clip of M3 vs Prius in terms of endurance race? M3 just demolishes prius with much better mileage. Prius's are for millennials who don't really think about tbings
And still Audi is the most technologically advanced than BMW and Mercedes Benz. Agreed on the performances of AMG and M Series but technologically Audi wins a way ahead
It is a real battle but also the humor give it a sweet thing. The winners will be consuments, lay back and choose a Toyota who is cheaper, never brake down and a dealership who treat you as you are a king. That's premium, That's Toyota.
great video! I didn’t have any idea about this billboard war. Those were great times. When publicity was a real war and incredible. Like the advertising campaigns between Mcdonald’s and Burger King in the old times!
I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about Audi being bad or good and BMW being bad or good. I know this is kind of off topic, but you shouldn't focus on expensive cars with glitziness and glamour as your #1 priority. That's nowhere near smart. I'd go for purchasing a nice house first or buying property. Cars depreciate in value, but property, such as houses and apartment buildings, appreciate in value. The smartest people will go for a nice, useful, fulfilling house in a good, safe neighborhood, and have a nice basic car, like a Honda. If you can afford Audis or BMWs, no stopping you. Go for it. They're great cars. My father had a 335i, he was in love with it. My mother currently has an Audi Q5, she loves it. But we focused on having a good house first. Remember. House first, then, if you want, you an get the nicer cars. :)
well, i dont think so. it is the competition which forces them to innovate. It was competition from BMW which forced Audi to come up with new designs and upgrades.
Most of this is actually Photoshopped. These companies rarely take shots at eachother, at least not over here, it's regarded as being unprofessional and childish for a luxury manufacturer.
Audi,Bmw,Mercedes. They are like brothers.They serve for peoples individual taste and each of them have good things to deliver for everyone. If they would make one complete model together maaan i bet that would be something.
I've did some more research on Skoda's and for 39k euro you can get a fully-loaded Octavia Combi Elegance 1,8 TSI and that does seem like good value (including sports suspension,leather seats,everything heated etc) or you can get it for 27k for the base model. In comparison, a base model BMW 320i touring is 42k. Although I am a BMW and Audi fan at heart, I will say however that Skoda does seem to be a much better brand than it was back in the 90's and so I take it back about them being "crap" :)
Mercedes Benz. An exemplar to all luxury car manufacturers. The One, in which all other cars are compared. The One, which defines the level. The One, which shows the way. The One, which is and will always be, the King of the kings. "The Best or nothing.."
here in Toronto back when the then new Malibu was being advertised a billboard on the side of the DVP showed a Honda Accord along side the new Malibu and it read 'An Accord by definition is a compromise Introducing the Uncompromising Chevy Malibu'
Bmw dosent compromise in performance...that's why i like them. Even though they have gotten a little away from it with these new vehicles. But it's still there, the focus on driving and the total package. I own audis in the past, great cars but not engaging to drive.
Don't forget to add the *Bentley too. So that's Audi, Bentley, VW, Porsche, Skoda, SEAT, Lamborghini, Buggati All in one group together & share ideas. I'm pretty sure they own 50% of heaven too lol.
Imagine an Audi billboard that sprays liquid onto bmw’s and glitter onto R8’s, they’d need a really good algarythum to know which is which or have someone monitor the road for a few hours
And the last word ti acara them all off is said by Bentley, giving them all the middle finger for fighting with each other like naughty kids. Sums it up nicely.
Audi is the best car in the game right now... Just bought one. Test drove all the other brands extensively... Audi won me over, they do the little details so well the others just look over. They are simply the best In this present moment. You can only disagree if you have driven all of the brands and observed every detail they have to offer. Looking at them on paper and wishing you had one is far different for owning one and driving it everyday. Trust me.
Derek I've had 2 Mercedes and recently bought my 2nd BMW a E92 M3, loving my BMW ATM but have to agree Audis look quite nice and maybe next time I'll try one :)
I saw a BMW "Service Car" for a BMW dealership, it was a Toyota Scion hahaha Even BMW knows to be reliable you have to go Toyota. It's in Southern California a dealership near Irvine, CA
I like BMW more than Audi. Here in Germany things changed, more and more arrogant people go to Audi. That's a fact, and u can see it everytime on the freeway. I don't hate on Audi cause its a very good competitor with BMW. BUT the design except the new front reminds of VW. Nobody can discuss that because that's a fact. So don't go angry because of cars, don't hate on others and chill. :)
I prefer BMW! look at the new models of BMW and the new model of audi and u will see the diferences of these two cars. In my opinion BMW looks perfectly of any angle ( INTERIOR+EXTERIOR) sorry for my bad english:o3
If it was RELIABILITY wars: Toyota has joined the chat Honda has joined the chat Subaru has joined the chat Mazda has joined the chat Hyundai has joined the chat Genesis has joined the chat Kia has joined the chat Ford has joined the chat
For me interior of mercedes is much better then the other cars Btw MB back in 1991 had self closing doors, they are always way ahead of other products. i know this is not video to comment like this but i will .
