- The Audi RS4 has been updated! Sure, none of the changes are that ground-breaking, from the exterior styling tweaks & headlight updates to the Napa leather seats (in the front AND back)! But if you’re looking for an everyday car that can still offer huge performance when you want it, is the RS4 the right choice for you? Stick with Mat and find out!

Carwow: I think you'll agree that the new one looks better
Me: oh yeah a poll
Carwow: let me know in the comments below
:(
I clicked the top right corner to only find that there's no polling!
I KNOW RIGHT
Didn't YT did away with polls ?
Yt is about to remove the poll ;(
Tbh pre facelift looks better. More aggressive
RUclips got rid of polls!😭
There were so many polls on carwow 😭
But why YT would do that
Whatttt 😭😭
I swear YT can’t do shit right, removing features we love then adding features that annoy tf out of people like the stupid comment section and how the X closes the entire comment section rather than close replies
Ramen Noodlz they move the comment section like every week it’s so annoying
@@yc_030 ?? They haven't moved the comments section for me in years!!
Top tip: Just buy the last year's model and save money!
Bruh same thing as the 2017 E Class
Absolutely! Audi good try, but I 'll pass!
Audi best
And if you already have last year's model...it'll probably hold its value a lot better.
Old Sounds better
Mat - "just compare the new and the old one side by side"
Proceeds to have one photo above another 🤣
This might blow your mind. So Matt asked how much difference could the extra 2 mph from 60 to 62 possibly make. Since kinetic energy is proportional to velocity *squared*, the last 2 mph here require the same amount of energy as the first ~15.6 mph! And that's under ideal conditions without friction and air resistance, which both increase at higher speeds, so this value could be much higher. I don't think enough people know this. I don't usually ask for likes, but please like this so Matt can see it.
For anyone interested in the math: √(62²-60²) = 15.62
@UCB7pPupvQDbZpxgkYW14W4Q Thing is the 1/2 cancels out. If we arbitrarily call the speeds v1, v2 and v3, the equation we get is (1/2)(m)(v3)² = (1/2)(m)(v2)² - (1/2)(m)(v1)². (1/2)(m) cancels out from both sides, so essentially that whole thing is the constant of proportionality, not just m.
You need a girlfriend mate.
@@jayneryan6395 Because of math (and science in general) humanity is at the point that it is. We wouldn't have cars like this for example if not for people who avoided the instant stuff. Mate.
@@huzzzer6083 Bless: the little sausage is easily offended.
@@jayneryan6395 Let him cook
Imagine curbing those massive alloys! 😫
EH??? I see it all the time around here. People with nice BMWs, Mercs & Audi's have no idea how to park their cars and shave a few grams off their nice alloys.
@@Rose.Of.Hizaki obviously want more weight reduction on their wheels
The driver would feel it as if his nervous system was connected to the wheels. Instant pain and heartache worse than straining an ankle in the middle of nowhere.
They going for that unsprung mass reduction
Some tires have rim protectors though so i wouldent be so woried
Mat:"And with the Quattro they made it a lot more playful than....."
*Immediately understeers* 5:24
Yeah!! That looked scary! Understeer, no thank you.
the famous Audisteer
No hate but oversteer is more dangerous.
@@lowrider69yearsago58 or just get a bmw for good dynamics
@@lowrider69yearsago58 For majority of drivers, yes. But the electronics in let's say Merc or BMW can easily deal with oversteer, whereas you can do nothing with Audi understeer because it's caused by placement of the engine and gearbox.
Audi: So where do you want your fake vents?
Everybody: Nowhere
Audi: Did you say **e v e r y w h e r e**
still looks better then the others tho 😄
“Nobody” comments are so lame.
do you see carwow
Almost everything is real at the front.
I know you
the new rs sounds like a boat exhaust in water te old rs sound like a straigh pipe
Opf Filter
Kaif Din it’s a diesel
@@worlow1841 filter to restrict air flow
It kinda makes me sad about where cars are going now that audi has basically given up
That is a shame, but it sounds better than BMWs and Mercs inline 6. With an aftermarket exhaust the RS4 sounds like a GTR (or better).
The specialist timing gear left us 😭
Like the polls
The pain I'm feeling is immeasurable.
@@Techie21 ?
Aldi will have said for it not to be used on film. That's why.
S obviously not as they told the time taken using it
That "BMW and Mercedes fanboys" part at 4:57 killed me xD
What's the reason why btw?
does a BMW and Mercedes fanboys rant
immediately goes into understeer
After i discovered this channel 2 years back i wish they were globally working company
I no longer drive but if I did I would buy a car from carwow as the RUclips channel is quality entertainment.
I bought a mercedes c300 and got a discount of 5000£
Our car are shit dude, no point
These don’t get old: “The Carwow Twiglette of Truth”. (7:05)
Matt needs to be THE presenter of Top gear, I would actually watch it again 😭
He'd certainly be better than anyone else. The thing is though, here he can do proper car reviews and we can watch them whenever we like. On Top Gear, he'd have to do pointless features/road trips etc. No thanks.
@@standandeliver8376 And he's pretty much his own boss here, in Top Gear he'd be under someone else and following their script, wouldn't be natural at all
Bring back fifth gear? Vicky Butler, Jason Plato, May Watson, the dinosaur Tiff Needell. Wise reviews without the wannabe grand tour style shill of a show that top gear became.
Not sure where he's from, but I think he's Brummie accent is a bit too much for me.
So akrapovich will have more job with those lame factory “sport exhaust” of nowadays.
I worked in the Akrapovič factory and the car department had nothing to do. Orders are low. The most sold product is the motorbike heatshield.
@@Exxonn_ damn thats bad
Because real cars uses armyrtix
Just way too expensive, when an exhaust costs as much as a whole car? And it still sounds shit compared to say an old VR6
Alex Says a guy with no car. LMAO
"Can you spot the difference?" - Yeah, the old one looks better.
Wut
Matt: Audi’s are fun on the road!
Audi: I will now understeer into a tree
better to understeer to a tree than oversteer stupid.
@@dogchainsaw3923 as long as either one of those are predictable, it's fine.
Yashar That was unnecessary, nasty, and incorrect.
@@dogchainsaw3923 oversteer is always more controllable than understeer. No need to call people stupid though
drinking game: take a shot every time matt says ARSE instead of RS
God, I haven't been following with this channel lately but I absolutely loved the way they used to tell about passenger seating with three people rating their respective seat's space and comfort. I love this channel but you have to bring that back!!!
Matt, we need an "air-time compilation" 👌🏼
Did I hear correctly: arse mode? Lol
Yep that's how you pronounce it, of course...
@@carwow wasn't chastising, or course. Just a little fun. Keep up the great work.
Btw, do you plan on doing a more affordable 7 seater comparison: be caddy 2020, touran, opel zafira life etc.? I don't want a SUV tbh.
YetAnotherUser an MPV?
Maybe consider a used 7 seater estate for more style and driving enjoyment
@@finleypdoherty Maybe they have a large family, genius.
@@finleypdoherty Why don't you buy what you want and mind you business about what others want to buy? It has sweet fook all to do with you and other busy bodies what car I or anyone else wants to buy. I'd buy a X3 DIESEL to replace my ageing 320D Touring if I could afford and it and your opinion means nothing to me.

Candace Owens [vomit]
😂😆
Killed her husband, whacked him!
_Can’t convince me that it didn’t happen_
You've convinced me. I definitely want the old car.
Love it
“Quattro grip” he says
Next corner he understeers and misses the apex
Quattro doesn’t give you extra cornering grip
It gives you extra grip when accelerating
Peter Hess. I suspect quattro is German speak for massive understeer.
Note. I own one so don’t be hating too much.
Peter Hess it does help with handling
That's even with improved understeer from older ones, used to be because the engine was further forward than the front axle, I've got an s3 like that and it's a pain to corner fast
@@olivercarter5546 well, in longitudinal engine layout audis the engine is still entirely in front of the front axle. Front diff is still in the gearbox housing, so the entire engine and a part of gearbox have to be in front of the front axle.
Yes a 4 wheel drive system (in this case quattro) does help in corner exiting traction because if the car understeers it can send power to the real wheels to compensate for the understeer and vice versa if the car oversteers
Congrats to 4 million subscribers Carwow. This is one of very few channel, which I enjoy watching 👍
Hoping everybody has a great and happy day and stay positive during this tough time ❤️❤️
No no don't stay POSITIVE you will then Corona to More and More people 😂😂
You too!
Javedan Ali wow ok...😁
yea stay postive
Nice RUclips channel btw !
The reviews just keep on getting better and better!
That old Rs4 sounds Awesome
I prefer the old one :(
Marley Keating same
Looks better, it's faster, cheaper and sounds godly
I prefer the olderer one =-/
I prefer the B9 A4 across the range over the current B9.5 because of looks and the infotainment.
Pre-facelift looks and sounds better. 😎
Congrats on 4 million subs!
Maybe we will be their one day hahaha
Maybe he did the RS *4* TO CELEBRATE
This is the first video ive watched of this channel of the car review. You have my sub purely because of the sticks used, thought it was hilarious keep it up guys
Congratulations on hitting 4M subscribers 🎉👏😃
Matt: It's more playful and fun to drive out on the road.
Also Matt: 5:23 Understeers straight into the path of oncoming traffic😮🤣
Peter-John Damonse
Audi ‘drift mode’ works on the front end 🙊
@@DontPanicDear Lmfao🤣 and we still love them for it😁
The best channel ever I ever got through.. Comprises everything!!!
I have dahscams Mayve you would like mine?
Have you heard of doug demuro?
@@kacpi479 The first ever car channel I ever subscribed.. He is now selling his Mercedes Benz amg e 63 estate on his new web Cars and bids..
Congrats on 4 million subs Carwow!
What a beast, love the looks, love your reviews
The RS4 looks badass when braking
Yeah buddy!
Agreed!
Love how Carole Baskin appears on the Google search to begin with lol!
Matt you are a pleasure to watch! Your going to the top 🔝
Congrats with you 4 million subs 👊🏻🔥🔥
Who else instantly clicks when Carwow uploads a video?
"at one point in time I'm gonna into Matt and who use the word ARSE when he sees an RS car. "Nice ARSE"😂
Oh, thank you carwow. I've been waiting for this video along with the new q7.
Great Review👍
The pre facelift looks 100% more agressive, it just looks better
0:23
*types car...
Google: Carole Baskin?
Both models looks fantastic! It's Audi styling after all💪💪
Please more audi videos , matt is the best in the business with cars ❤️
The best car reviewer!
It's true....
Rory and Chris Harris
THISSSS is not quite true
@@raffaelender9464 lol
When it comes to reviewing Audis
Who else loves carwow?
Not Carwow it's Matt why I love them I guess...🤷♂️😉
Who doesn't love, that should be the question.
@@EsBeeQue true. BTW thanks for the reply
@@hanshilgandhi Yeah!
18:10
amazing thumb power there Matt. i can't believe you can use your phone without even touching it XD
Mat: *Types Car*
Google: *Carole baskin*
Wow! Congrats on 4 mil, Carwow
yea well done matt
Wow
I love Audi's Everytime he reviews one it makes my day hundredddddd ⭕⭕⭕⭕
Congrats for 4 million subscribers!!
Credit to mat!!
Great review!😸😸
Mat, you used to have the previous generation rs4 as your long term loan.
i love long term reviews, i wanna see how they age too
And he loved it!
@@carwow Why can't he have this as a long term loan?
6:35 “it’s still sporty” ah yes illustrated by that lovely understeer haha
Audi's typical signature ahah
I love how during the beginning of the vid when it’s doing the google search of “car”, Carole Baskin is the first hit to come up lol
Cheers Matt. Was lucky enough to to pick up my own RS4 Bronze Edition from Crawley Audi last week via Carwow
Brilliant service all round and a very good deal. Let the good times roll🚗💨💨💨💨💨
I had a new S4 pull up behind me and I thought it was an S Line A1. So much cheap looking plastic on the front.
The old model is MUCH better looking!
surely you couldn’t have mistaken an S4 for an A1, perhaps you thought it was an A3?
Crack Stain A3 had way better materials before facelift.
It would make sense that the PPF would make it slower, I don’t believe it would be as free flowing as the exhaust pre facelift plus the small amount of added weight because of it combined might make that 0.1 second difference however different variables such as amounts of fuel may be the reason as it’s such a small amount of time.
I wont be surprised if I wake up tomorrow and find carwow with 10 million subscribers, channel is aswesome💪
Less than four seconds to 60mph from standstill is a laugh, cheers for this vid.
audi killed the sound of the new 2020 rs4 the pre faced 2019 audi rs 4 sounds amazing
truuu
It's regulation
OPF killed it
You’re dumb if you think it was Audi who killed the sound, the EU killed the sound - just listen to the American RS4 sounds so much better
i agree my good man
To be honest, I prefer the old RS4 to this one
Congratulations matt for 4million subscriber.
This channel is grooooooowing!!!!!!
Nice car, and practical as well. Whether it's one tenth or two tenths slower or quicker than the old model doesn't bother me, it's still very fast!
those lights 😍😍 id say best on the market mannn
I love that Carole Baskin comes up in the Google Auto Suggest when they type in Car Wow! 😂🤦♂️
nice long review
Lovely car. Also good to hear they made the handling more playful and nimble. Can't wait for a test drive. Personally never get the Quattro hype. I prefer rwd or fwd cause it's much more fun. Traction gives a dominating feeling, but some drama and aggressive pulls from a roll is just more satisfying.
Hey Mat. Let's face it, those headlights are just a big no-no, and a step back compared to the B9. I'll still stick to my Nogaro edition B5 RS4, which still is the coolest RS4 ever made. Cheers
I love porsche head lights
10000% agreed
I 10000% disagree those are the most beautiful headlights IMO
Agreed. The B9 headlight detent was a distinctive styling cue. Now it looks like my old B8.5. Indeed a step backwards.
That prefacelift sounds amazing
I love your natural stick pointer🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
Thanks Matt. As usual a great video. Shame Audi have wrecked all their cars with gearbox mods making them unresponsive.
The RS4 is so beautiful holy
Audi design sucks
@@cardiffexpress4652 yeah ight LMFAO
Is this integrated acceleration measurement also avaible with the analog cockpit or is it a virtual cockpit exclusive? Thanks for that information:)
I was expecting a Drag race b/w the RC Car and the RS!
Matt set it up for the next drag race video! RC v Real Car!
Old and new rs4 is exactly the same!
Mat: so what exactly happend?
çok biliyosun
Drag race with the old one!
" that's what Audi like Flat bottoms " - Matt Wotson
The new one looks friendlier, especially the headlights. I like that.
Really great review, what was the production year of the pre-facelift version?
So new version is slower and uglier. Plus “upgraded” the MMI to touchscreen. Great job Audi!
Are you considering expending carwow to the rest of Europe 🤔
carwow you are the best
Classic carwow stick of truth
Sick of the soft limiters on these Audi’s 🙄
there is some way you can turn off the electronic limiter, probably inside the ECU
The nearest tunning garage can do that for ya, along with the particle filter and speed limiter.
Me too
Don't hate the brand, hate the European emission rules
@@theblitz6838 I don't think mercedes and bmw does that tho
Still understeers into next week!
Audi is just getting better and better
I love the RS4
Drag race between this and the previous one pls matt👍🏾
"It'll be fine in Germany, where the roads are smooth"
As a German I can say most roads are far worse than you'd ever imagine.
You'd be disappointed by the general road conditions and especially the amount of construction sites on the Autobahn.
Been stationed here for 1.5 years. German roads are shit in so many areas. The Autobahn has regulated speeds in SO MANY spots, and they LOVE putting cameras in areas where it moves from 130 kph to 70 kph. I've gotten more tickets in Germany in under 2 years than I got in the US in 20. Everyone here told me no matter how you drive you'll get a ticket, and boy were they right.
A5 zwischen Heidelberg und Frankfurt ist katastrophal... obwohl vor kurzem alles erneuert wurde. Ist aber auch verständlich bei den vielen überladenen osteuropäischen LKWs
@Teamgeist Most recently, I was stationed at your mom's house. She said she likes the way I drive, and that I let her shift the stick.
If only this was available in the US 🥺😫
Matter of time i guess? At least i. The US you are free of these stupid filters and regulations. Sportscars are dying in eu
You guys don't like estates, Kombi's , or station wagons ,as you call them,
so you don't get this uber-wagon , tough cookies , too bad !!!!
carole baskin poping up in the search as he is searching for car wow! LOL!!!!
my favourite carwow
Old looks better solely because of that stupid fake grill under the bonnet line
mat 🤝blaming petrol filter for everything
Got one, love it
Lovely car. Still, to this day I can't figure out why they stick to the "glued on iPad" style infotainment display on models A4 and lower. I love the way they did it in the A6 and upwards. Is the body really that much narrower?
