Cars be like: let’s all wear blue but don’t tell Volvo
they are all blue pilled except Volvo
😂🤣😂🤣👌👌
Volvo arriving “funny huh, ive never seen this colour on a car now i see it on four cars at once”
@@gapy18 are you red-pilled?
Simple, Leader always change the way it's look and followers come to know a bit later!
I've got a new 3 series, when the voice recognition doesn't understand my funny accent and starts apologising for being stupid I tell it to "shut up", and it responds "ok" and does! Great.
LMAO
Awesome
Brilliant!
try to insult it when you are choosing a navigation destination... It will change your navigation zoom option and choose some nonsense destination xD
I'm never mean to it. Makes the car run great and always happily respond to commands ;)
My heart says Alfa Giulia, my brain says Alfa Giulia, and my budget says Alfa 159. ❤️
😂😂 Same
I must admit I thought that the benz would be the most expensive
Next gen arrives next year, that's why the price of the current one is lower.
@@Todestuete Mercedes is the Dacia of this 5 cars but is the best
The base prices are with completely different engines and equipment, the Mercedes only costs less with a much weaker engine and much less equipment, if you compare similar engines and equipment the Mercedes is MUCH more expensive than Alfa an Volvo.
Thanks for the advice
Whilst I'm obviously a fan of the Benz having previously owned a w205 C250d and w204 C250CDI, I think it definitely varies by market and positioning. For some reason in Oz, the Benz seemed to be a better value proposition than the others in terms of standard equipment and performance back when I was buying. If I were to buy again in 2019 though it would be a different story where performance & equipment levels of the rivals has improved significantly and the facelifted w205 feels a tad dated now (but it hasn't aged as badly as I thought it would with the floating interior).
A giulia is still the best car I’ve ever driven. I have a stelvio now but man I miss that thing
Poor Jaguar. They haven't even had a look in even after "updating" the XE...
And poor Lexus IS too.
@@derbigpr500 oh shit! I totes forgot that one, that is a nice looking car...
...but nothing new has been done with that in ages anyway... Plus, we don't get a 2.0 litre petrol setup here anymore, just that 300h hybrid
It's unsurprising. I tested most of these whist looking for a new car for my wife. I didn't even test drive the XE it was that bad inside compared to the others. In the end went for the 3 series - it's fantastic!
@@MrGDRvideos lol, I never said I was surprised. British marques haven't really historically been the way to go if you want something reliable, thinking back... Makes it actually quite a good thing that Vauxhall isn't British anymore...
Hell, neither are the Italians though... I heard plenty about Giulia Quadrifoglios being rickety after leaving the showroom...
@@blicknessraven I own a Range Rover and a TVR so know all about British reliability! To be fair the RR has been faultless...been quite lucky with that one. The BMW makes me wonder if it's worth all the £ though...
0:34 😂😂😂😂 this is why matt is unbeaten with car reviews

Having a Volvo S60 with AWD and the 316hp engine, this almost feels like cheating it, the T6 absolutely hangs corners, and has a good amount of spirit in dynamic mode. Can’t wait to get a polestar tune for an extra 25hp and a PCM/TCM flash.
Did you get the tune?
or the t8, with 400 horsepower

Bmw has upped the ante with the interior. That’s incredible.
If only the hadn't messed up the digital instruments and iDrive. In my opinion, the old instruments and the iDrive 6 are better than iDrive 7. Not in terms of design but in terms of usability / practicallity.
FLOB32 i haven’t had a chance to use either to be honest mate so I can’t really comment, but I know I drive is ahead of the game in relation to the others. I like the fact it’s still got the analog controls for it and isn’t just touch screen.
I have a 2019 3 series and I used to have a 2016 C-class and I must say the BMW is an improvement in almost all areas. I absolutely love the car, iDrive is great to use.
Phoe Nix you’ve made a nice upgrade sir. Bmw are a beautiful car and will always be my favourite of the trio. I’m saving up to get a new 3 series myself
Bmw interior hasn’t changed since 2003, it’s conpletley basic with a small screen
Who all knew the 3 series was going to win? I did.
Of course, BMW has always been superior to other cars
@@SnowManIsCalledJeti I sense the sarcasm
@@SnowManIsCalledJeti i personaly drive an F31 and in my opinion, atleast all other german competitors made overall better cars during that series but I drove the G20 and G21 already and I know why the BMW won.
@@heroicsss I'm considering getting an f31 next year actually....any advice/info about this car in general?
@@evtimstefanov5441 Try to get a Facelift, they improved the quality of the materials a lot and you already get the B model engines, which have massive improved acoustics and do not have a lot of troubles in general compared to a N47 for example. I have got a pre Facelift 320d xdrive (a pretty late production date, so I do not have troubles with my engine so far) and for me as a car guy, the engine noice is killing me and the wind noice is pretty high aswell aspecial (jeah obiously the noice increases at high speeds) while driving at above 130km/h on german autobahn. In general, if you get a diesel, try to get the 330d, the inline 6 are really great engines and fit the car perfectly, during a safety training I had the chance to drive a F30 330d on track and it´s a perfect car, probably not too much power for a track but on road it is great fun.
I am on my second Alpha Romero Gillia Veloce. I absolutely love this car, and there are some great mods you can do with performance. I also have a nice Chevy Tahoe for certain utility, like hauling, but my alpha is true driving experience. Who cares about trunk space in a super sweet sports car? Also, it’s pretty darn cool when people asked what you’re driving and you say, an “Alpha Romero“ BMW, Mercedes, and Audi are everywhere. It’s not often you see an alpha! Alpha Romero hands-down!
Why do you keep putting an 'r' in Alpha *Romeo* ? Makes it sound like you're talking about a type of Camaro
It's "Alfa Romeo" please

The Gulia is just so damn beautiful 😍
chillidip ugly
Its actually ugly
I agree with you. As Jeremy Clarcson said:" Comparing Alfa to Audi is like comparing bouqet of flowers to concrete" :)
Of course it`s a matter of taste.
@@Duke75524 Any VAG car is basically a box with four wheels, even Audi. People who buy them are usually boring and see cars as simple tools to get from A to B. An Alfa is an automobile.
Great video as always, I always feel bad that that Jaguar XE or XF are left out of these comparisons...they have really addressed alot of their tech issues...maybe you can do the new XF?...thanks Matt!
Quote of the day:
"No no, calm down, we're a Volvo let's be sensible!" ~Mat
Do I go for my brain: A4/ 3 Series
Or my heart?: Alfa Giulia
I think my heart
My brain says 3 series or c class but my heart says 3 series 😂
That a4 facelift is extremly ugly both interior and exterior prefacelift was much better
100% go heart. There are no 'brain' choices in this lineup. If you want to go brain/wallet, you'd buy a Camry Hybrid and replace it in 20 years after a life of flawless service. I own a 430i GC btw, and I'm very happy with it but facts are facts.
I bought my first Alfa Ever about 5 months ago. It's a 2018 Giulia TI Sport. I just hit 5k miles and have absolutely no regrets. The car is a blast to drive, but also quite practical. They also aren't super common, so it really makes it stand out! In my first few weeks of owning it I already had a few people stop and ask "Yo what kinda car is that!?". Brings a smile to my face every time.
ALFA IS BRAIN AND HEART 😉
Jaguar XE. I've had two, the first series which was a great car, and the second series which is a stunner. Perplexingly overlooked here. Beautiful to look at and a really sharp drive. No reliability concerns unlike the Audi A5 we had before which had a series of mechanical issues. Motoring journalists tend to mark the Jaguar down for not having much room in the back seat. It's a sports sedan, ffs!
Was it in the same price range as these? It probably wouldn’t be in the video if it didn’t match the price of the others.
Audi A5 mechanical issues, c'mon you troll!
Jaguar with no reliability concerns?? Hahaha 😂
I feel like a 330i would have been more comparable to the other cars
with a 330i it wouldn't even be a contest :)
Or even a 330d
If the Diesel beat them No need for the petrol. It'll be unfair
Why? Audi is 190hp as well. 320i would be the best choice
Prices
Volvo - Safety
Mercedes - Classy
Alfa - Fun
Audi - Sensible
BMW - All of the above
The BMW isn't classy though. Its ghetto and ratchet.
@@SDav21 we're talking about the cars, please stop describing your mother.
The bmw isn’t safe, it isn’t classy, it isn’t fun and not sensible either....
the only thing a bmw is is.... a tool for idiots to be more idiots than they already are
@@lmeyer46ish Wow. Such a mature response. Haha. You've proved my point. BMW and their fanboys... Ghetto and ratchet. Oh and also immature. Just to add based on your reply.
@Latvietis96 It can be the best. That's fine. But BMWs are never classy. I didn't say it wasn't a good car. What I said is that it is not classy. BMWs don't have that class appeal. Usually they are driven by immature ratchet people and are liked by similarly immature fanboys. It's very off putting.
Ooooh, that Giulia. When you see that car once, all other cars just vanish!
!???p
You're right! That Giulia is beautiful.
alfa is ugly
i saw it in person, did even want to test drive after seeing it. on the ugly-o-meter, i place it as the second ugliest option, just slightly less ugly than lexus.
I have not once stopped at a gas station without someone saying something about my Giulia.
The C Class' interior should be updated... Even the A class has that one piece screen...
That interior is so old, even the original G-class has forgotten it.
Ujw Gaming No!!It’s better with this “photo frame” infotainment display😏
That's the new MBUX for the C-class. The best Infotainment out there.
Ujw Gaming its the oldest car in its class and to me still the best looking
@@colewaweru8926 BMW's have had the best infotainment systems for years now, Mercedes are just starting to catch up though. 3 series is the leader in its class, if ya don't believe me, watch the review😂
0:40 *When the Ice Cream van starts moving*
Why Alfa Romeo is the winner for me? Because Alfa Romeo Giulia was produced 3 years ago...and that was to old to compete with another 4 new model. But she still can manage at top 3!
Aidi is mot new its facelifted
@@Gez492 That genration of Audi A4 came out in 2016, same as the alfa....
The C Class is older than the Giulia. It came out in 2014.
@@henrickhansel but how many version has been upgrade till this model came out.
@@bamphmx-5548 older only on chasis. Totally different than 2014 model...
I was a 2019 Alfa Romeo Guilia owner, Dark Grey with Red Leather seats, loved it for the first three years, then a lot of recalls and starter senser went bad, was stranded in Jacksonville, the Alfa Romeo dealership in Jacksonville just brushed me off and told me they don’t honor my warranty here. I was disappointed. But they are saying that the Alfa Romeo 2022 and the updated year ,now are much better supposedly, so I’m thinking of the Stelvio 2025 it’s in my bucket list.
Even that the Alfa needs a few updates I would definitely choose it
Coming soon
it has just 2020 specs leaked (lots of changes) and will have full facelift in 1 or 2 years.
I'd take the alfa any day because it's rare and unique and not to mention the beauty
until that check engine light comes out

@@Rattlepiece i would trust something built in china more than in the US, most (but definitely not all) americans are stupid, lazy and incapable of anything. jobsworth really if that.
in china you get what you pay for.
If you ask a Chinese man to build you a product for £30, he wont haggle on the price, he will just give you £30s worth of materials/labour in your finished product.
you do the same with an american and he will look at you and ask "what am i meant to do with £30"...
The front of the new BMW 3 series featuring the M-package looks very sharp. It takes a while to get used to the tail lights though... Looking forward to getting mine in the near future...
Leif Dehio Good choice.
I have gotten myself the 330i in September, lots of fun to drive and the front looks amazing and it sounds good(330i even pops) I don't mind the back as much as I used too
Leif Dehio i do remember the time when the e90 was introduced, that one took a lot of time to get used to haha
Leif Dehio same !! I’m hopefully getting one in the next 2 years or so 🤓
hiroyan san absolutely 👍
I hate those bolted on screens, they look out of place and cheap aftermarket.
They also look like they take away from visability.
Looking at you Audi and Mercedes.
I don't know about the A4, but in the Audi S3 you can push a button that sends the screen down in to the dashboard. Quite useful if you feel it's in the way.
The Mercedes one is really bad I can't stand it the other pet hate in a lot of cars for me is piano black plastic it looks glorious but you are forever cleaning it and as it ages it scratches and looks horrible. I much prefer the screen to be intergrated into the centre console.
I agree with plagues comment on the Audi's you can make it disappear into the dash if you want. Also, when you do use it, at least in the size that's in the Audi A3 oh, it doesn't really interfere with vision and it gives you an easier heads up view of some information.
PLAGUE unfortunately the A4’s screen doesn’t drop into the dash like the A3
The BMW's is the same way, it's just angled
I'd take the Volvo S60 first choice and Alfa Romeo second choice, stunning looking cars 👌👍🏴
Since they are all newer versions specially bmw which is 3 years later than giulia veloce.. And the upgraded giulia interior will be coming up in september much more luxury and a touch screen.. 3 years older..
I think ( sure) that the alfa is the best here.. She is undisputed 🖤
True! Alfa 4 life!
@@seaspeakss actually yes.. Its a four door ferrari.. It cant be compared to those typical boring cars..
They should've wait till the next refershment.. It will dust all
I knew it from the beginning that BMW will the winner no matter what😂😂
Rishabh Sharma Because BMW is the best car in that class. Pointless discussing it.
Exactly. The 3-series is the benchmark in this class and has nearly always been. Typing this from inside the G20 320d xDrive Launch Edition and well... It is such a nice place to spend my days working and driving.
I drove all of the cars, besides the new A4, at work and the BMW really is the best car in this class. There‘s a reason they call it the ultimate driving machine.
I have to agree i test drove alot if these cars before settling on the 2019 330i xdrive bc it was by far the best overall vechile . its not perfect but its an amazing daily driver
of course, BMW invests a lot of in "marketing" (that means, pays every auto-magazine for they talk only best things)
Metal interior, here in Finland, is great during winter when thermometer hits below -20C.. Super job!
Last winter we only had one day that was over -15 in the south
I’d take the S60 or Alfa without hesitation. Gorgeous vehicles. Really nice review!
Totally agree
The AWD S60 is a lot better in the handling department. It really does grip on twisty roads compared to this FWD option.
If you are reading this I hope you have a very good day 💯

hmm no i think they make little steps to beautiful
That C Class is a bit dated now. It came out in 2015, the closest new Mercedes would be the 2018-19 CLA or A Class Saloon. Correct me if I'm wrong.
@xellossaxon I dont need to know because i can see and feel when i drive them.....
Best design alfa Romeo gulia so my choice alfa
I just bought the 330i and it’s amazingly good to drive, lots of room and a great engine.
Volvo for safety and comfort, Alfa for handling and driving pleasure. Maybe BMW could be the perfect balance
FastTeam11 I’ve been in a S60 and I found it very comfy. I’d choose the Alfa because is lighter than the BMW. It’s subjective.
@@FastTeam11 They had for some reason R-design verison, which you clearly don't have to get. Get V60, throw air suspension and hybrid engine there and you've got a really good car.
@Anurag Merc seems so outdated, especially interior. They've been using same design for so long and that huge brick tablet at middle is horrible.
Those are the two cars I would get. A V60 would be my choice, cause Alfa doesn't seem to care about the ones who liked the mighty sportwagons...
Why would I buy a Volvo if the Germans are even cheaper?

Only Alfa Romeo
@Latvietis96 I see you are bmw fan. BMW is just cool car ( driven by morons) . Alfa is true sport car. Once you own Alfa, you will never want to drive another mark, because it is so unique and fun to drive.
* If you can't buy Ferrari, you should buy Alfa Romeo ;)
@Latvietis96 Yes, it is true. That is maybe the reason why BMW succeeded, while Alfa is hanging on the edge of ruin. I want to say Alfa is true ''driver's car", beautiful and only for fun.
@Latvietis96 Also, in this case, bmw e90 and f30 were impracital. New G20 is larger and there is more space and better usefulness :)
isnt the tesla (model 3 or sth) in this exact category?
both in money and spec?
i was expecting to see some multi comparisons here...
overall on paper the best one is the BMW by far, but I would pick the Alfa QV over a M3 or C63 for sure if we were comparing top spec cars. Ferrari engine with 500+bhp and a Alfa badge nothing beats that.
You be in a very exclusive club; I've done 46000miles in the last 3 years.....haven't seen one of them yet.
The Audi interior is genius! Remove the MMI know for a holder for T-c Tacs or a Zippo lighter.
That whole anti Diesel debate is just weird to me. I'd absolutely pick the 320d or 330d! 👍
M340d and remap to 400bhp 😜 wait 2 years you will get one for £25k.
Should've tested the Jag XE as well.
Imo way to expensive and doesn't Excel in any category. Still decent car but wouldn't get it since past XE's are know for beeing incredible unreliable

Alfa for design, reliability and technology. I got a 3-series and I had a lot of problem. Now I had a Giulia and no problems till now (65.000 miles). They have to improve some materials inside, but the car is consistent.
Seems a bit over harsh in the Volvo
But I’d take the bmw. But the Volvo would be next without doubt. Also you can get the Volvo with awd
You can get the BMW with AWD too.
Agree with you completely, 1.BMW, 2.Volvo, the rest doesn’t matter...
I dont know his expectations but in my opinion the volvo s60 is an amazing car.. And it does make fun to drive, kind of sad that it's got such a bad rating here
Because he tested t5 fwd version and compared to cars with awd or rwd transmission. So no suprise volvo seemed bad. T5 isnt most powerful 2l engine from Volvo. T6 awd with polestar tune should be in this test instead of t5. 325hp from 2l makes this car something special. Better than competition in almost ale the aspects. I drove Audi, BMW and Mercedes all in most powerfull 2l engines and none of them offers so good combined sport and comfort feelings. Some years ago I would never thought that Volvo is capable to do so good cars. Maybe my thoughts are so because all the volvos i had possibility to drive were T6.
I think one of my favorite things about carwow videos is checking the boot (trunk) space. All the car review channels I watch are for different specific reasons.
I'll take the A4
I think the alfa's best
The diésel bm is better
I tested the BMW and Audi before going home with the Alfa. It has way more soul and character than the other two. It's like going to an amusement park, to and from work everyday. Love it.

Underrated comment
Matt, I like your videos however why in the UK with the weather we have that you would recommend a 3 series, its my opinion however I believe the A4 is a better "all round" car as you can drive it in the rain & snow without needing 4WD. That's just the start, the BMW is far too expensive for what you get. Just my thoughts!
For driving and looks it has to be the one with the racing pedigree....Alfa 😎

I never got the love to the Alfa Giulia... it always seemed to me like a weirdo in the room.
But I like its interior, and a well-integrated screens, as opposite to random tablets sticking out (I blame Tesla for that BS)
What the fuck are you talking about? Tesla integrated a fucking 15 inch screen in its cabin?? Dumb fuck
Alfas are _always_ shit. Only people who like them think they're being edgy and hip by pretending to love them.
@@Kronos0999 lol, ok
@@Kronos0999 you never drived Alfa, and dont understand
@@Kronos0999 and what do you, a 12 year old shitstain, know about alfa romeo except for the usual outdated bullshit of "its shit". Are you the same kind of dumbfuck who calls a Porsche a Beetle, a BMW a WW2 bomber or any Honda a lawn mower. Get your head out of your ass you dumbfuck because you don't know two shits about cars apparently.
1:08 that bmw is about 26% costlier than the mercedes with that discount!! No doubt bmw is a better performing car at its own price.
My fav is the Volvo. It NEEDS to be a T6 AWD R-Design Polestar, just like our XC90 is!!
ALFA ROMEO 💖💖 💖💖 💖
I would still buy the Volvo thank you very much.
The saftey is what matters, I have a XC90
This is the video I needed... bmw, Audi, Mercedes, and the Romeo
I can buy the Alfa just for the paddle shifters.
roKr55 i did 😁
Nothing beatsd a good set of solid aluminium paddle shifters, besides a manual transmission of course.
@@_Atomic_impact That's awesome
@@gravemind6536 Amen to that

Armoo was here
Come on, Alfa Romeo has never been in the same league of Mercedes, Audi and BMW. Carwow would have done better picking a Lexus sedan for comparison.
BMW série 3 👍🏾✌️
Picked up my 320D up yesterday it has blown me away they are in a class of their own BMW all the way
