Audi S5 Review (354HP) Performance Driving and Acceleration | Is it Faster Than the BMW 440i?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 апр 2019
- The new Audi S5 Coupe sits right in between the entry level A5 and the range topping RS5. But does its 354HP turbocharged V6 have enough punch to set itself apart from its siblings? And how about its rival, the BMW 4-series?
Watch this acceleration test for the BMW 340i here - • BMW 340i xDrive Accele...

The quality of the production that went in this video is incredibly sharp and professional looking :o I love this video ❤️
I agree...it made me subscribe 😂 and plus dude seems real laid back
The RS5 is too hard for traveling longer distances and the A5 is already a weaker car. In my opinion the S5 is the ultimate daily driver, sure there are faster cars, but they are not as comfortable.
Cant agree with you on this one. Drove the rs5 while there was an audi event in my country and it was the best 200 km ride for my back in years. Just need to set it for comfort.
@@RK1FX
I've driven both the S5 and RS5 and for me, the S5 is significantly more comfortable with both the seating and the suspension. Individual comfort is of course always subjective.
@@RobertLeBlancPhoto I have spinal problems bro and my nervous system is f.... up. Trust me I know when I drive a comfortable car, my spine does...
For me..a5 power is sufficient enough
RS5/S5 is basically the same car different engine. My S5 has the same suspension and seats the RS has.
These videos are incredible. You need more views + subscribers!!
Anthony Bonvino then let's work hard and promote this channel
Thanks fellas, I hope I keep growing and get there one day.

I’ve been daily driving my 3.0t S5 for just a year. Perfect for Deep South New Zealand.
Until the day comes where I don’t need four seats ( enter 911, Cayman), this is the ideal sports sedan for me. Great video and thanks.
I've watched every s5 video review. This was the most professional and well produced.
I can truly appreciate the honesty, the creativity and the genuine time put into this video. Thank you for sharing this with us and Merry Christmas to you.
Feels like I’m watching a movie and review at the same time, great job!
Like all the other comments, great video!! Artistic and HIGH QUALITY!! You deliver every time!!
Your videos makes me want to skip work and go for a nice long ride! Keep it up.
My man, keep this high level of editing and production videos and you gonna get to 1 million subscribers in no time. I read the comments, planty of people congrats you for your way to do videos, and you deserve it, no others reviewers could get that sound oh the exhaust as you din. Wonderful work!! 🙏🏻
As always, good stuff man!
Man keep up the good work I love you videos you're the only one that make this kind of videos like that I never make a comment but it's hard with this kind of high quality videos
Thanks man, I really appreciate the comment!
Amazing video as always and I would like to point out that I really like what you've done to present the times of each cars. Having it as a graphic is a great idea but I also really like the fact you are keeping it within the same "category" of cars.
Top notch review. Fantastic video as always.
Great review, keep up the good work.
After this video, i just watched more of yours. This car review is a whole new level. The voice. Cinema. Keep up the amazing work! Your channel is going become huge!
Hey thanks for the comment. I really hope it takes off some day. But I will continue grinding regardless 👍
Wow. I love the quality of the production. Very professional. Love it. Keep up the great content.
The best ever automobile review in my life!!
Woho, thats some serious video production you have done with this. Very professional work, with good background score.
As for the S5, it is just the right balance for a daily driver without screaming.
Very Cool vid brother. Great content and I especially enjoy your cinematography.
great video, very professional!
You got to be the most underrated car reviewer.
U deserve more subs ❤️🤙
Legit video. Love the production.
Great video ! You deserve much more subscribers! Keep the good work! Subscribed 👍🏻
Really impressed with the videos. Very cinematic.
Production of the content is mad!
I just purchased a 2019 S5 prestige coupe’ in Quantum grey. I have to say, this car is a blast and luxury all in one. Not sure there are too many cars that can beat the quality and performance in one.
just picked up the sportback. Love it.
Rich Arnold really wanting a sportback in Quantum. But I can’t find it anywhere lol
Steve Lund @Steve Lund hi i hesitate between the s5 prestige coupe and rs 5. Did you try the rs5 to compare ?
La Perfection Louis no I didn’t compare but the only difference is the twin turbo. Not enough in performance to justify.
Hints of Clint Eastwood here. Don a tattered cowboy hat, sport a scowl and you're there.
Excellent review of a world class car. It's next for me.
Thank you for the video!!!
Love the production on your vids, audio is superb. No clipping the exhaust sound, sounds like you're using analog limiters... Sound devices mixPre maybe? And with the dynamic range you're getting on the videos I'd guess you're using an Arri Alexa. It's pro level whatever it is and I love it. Nobody does car videos this good!!!
The addition of the graphical statistics is AWESOME! Much better presentation and is more "up to speed" (pun intended) with the rest of the video production. Your continued excellent content and improvements are noted!
Thank you Richard! I've been trying to do a graphical/digital times list but it just took me some time to learn how to do. Editing is not my forte but hopefully improving as I go with this channel. Cheers! 👍
This review video is very well done. You have a great presentation style. I'm so tired of all the RUclips car reviewers who insert too much "personality" into their reviews.
JESUS that thing roars for a turbo...I like
Awesome video!!!
Awesome content
Holy fuck this production level is great
Love the video production quality ... would love to see a 4K video option on here ;)
I've had my convertible 2018 S5 in Daytona Grey for a year now and the level of equipment it has is unreal from the heads up display to the self parking it's all great. Best car I've ever owned. The traction is a joke as well it sticks to the road so well it's unreal and when I have people in it I just put my foot down and they are always shocked from the acceleration 😂 that exhaust sounds absolutely amazing with the roof down as well 😍😍😍
Dude no way! I watched your Z06 videos back when I had a Z06 and now I've got an S5 and YOU have an S5?? Cray!
Quality of the video is impeccable.
Much love from India
Hey just wanted to let you know that I think you did a phenomenal job with the video. Very classy. Take care!
The quality of this video is better than 90% of movies
Forgot to mention this guy is just too cool
Beautiful video, beautiful car
Amazing vid
All right, another kick ass video! So what's your list or schedule cars review? You got me hooked...
Thanks! Don't like to spoil too many details, but the next one up should be the BMW i8. And then I'm off to the New York Auto Show and Poconos for roll racing. Have a few more German cars lined up after that. I want to switch it up a little bit and introduce some different content so I'll be experimenting in the next few weeks as well.
Dope, love it
What I'm gonna say right now is extremely well done and accurate
Great video
I don’t know, but it have been an awesome experience watching this video, very professional. Maybe because I like Audis.
Well done !
Relax man. Great video.
Nice review
I just got mine and I love it. Works for any type of driver you are.
Great work brother!
Thanks Shane and thanks for coming out! See you soon.
Great review. And there’s a lot of things that are not also with the main difference of a general overview, specifically when you categorize a medium measurement in a non translucent approach.
Way to Go.. like i said on Instagram..you are good at this... KEEP IT UP.. I dig it. #trackdaytv #topsnappodcast
epic review
That's such a good point about the paddles!
Finally! An Audi reviewer who realizes that the key fob holder in the center console is for... the key fob; not a tube of chapstick or celery salt.
I'm not used to watching reviews about a car I actually have keys to, but my regular daily is an '04 PT Cruiser. So yea, you can imagine how I feel when I drive the S5.
Bruh this was amazing
This review is just sooo cool,¡
Bruh you funny in this 🤣. Coo way you review. You just got a subscriber 👍
@3:32
Never would get old. Great engine for tuning as well.
your video like a movie...look so nice!
I can’t wait till you get your hands on the C8
I agree with everything you said. Great analysis of the S5. I personally don't like the wheels and front with all that chrome. I wish Audi would make the front end a little bit more aggressive since it's an "S" model. The interior is way nicer than BMW 3 series and that virtual cockpit takes the cake.
After driving both the M2 and 340, I feel like BMW needs a big overhaul in the interior department. But from the pictures I've seen of the new 3-series and the M5, I would say it's definitely worth another look. Hopefully I get to check those out soon.
how the tables have turned…. now audis interior can’t even compare to any bmw 😂😭 so out dated
@@diyarkoku3559which bmw interior? The ones with the stuck on screen as a dash?
I really appreciate the beauty and detail you put into this review, very cool to watch and it’s so much better than all the standard reviews out there. Well done!
Great tight review, and a pleasant surprise to see such a cool sharp Asian bro in charge - you are a good match with the Audi style heh ~ 😎
I don't know what you did in the mic department for that flat out run, but duude. Nailed it. That was sick. Did you blend 2 audio streams together somehow? I've never heard such as accurate engine note representation on camera. Please don't tell me you put a mic next to a speaker in the car. lol.
Thanks! I do the same thing as every acceleration run. GoPro on the rear bumper right by the license plate for the exhaust audio and I blend it with the camera that's shooting the dash/cabin so it's a mixture of inside and outside sound. Some cars work out better than others though. I guess it's cuz the S5 is just the right amount of loud that it doesnt overpower the GoPro. 👍🏻
Really nice short review on the S5. I like the fact it’s similar to the C43 AMG, a balance between the base model and super Model. Always enjoying the videos. Just hope one day I can drive these cars, own them, and live for them like you do
Yes, it's very middle of the road, which is a good and a bad thing. Good if you like to be understated yet fast at the same time but bad if you are looking for all out performance in a segment. Hope that eye is doing alright brother 👍
Track Day TV yessir my eye is doing good now. I’m just sick now. I don’t. Really think many people buy an S5 or a 340i or a C43 AMG to be flat out performance, but there’s the few people who want more and buy less then get fed up with it quickly. Kinda weird. Anyways, 2 more days until my big day. It’s gonna be a fun one!
Bro i almost want to say your videos are corny but you actually make this look so professional and smooth. reminds me of a video game. This channel will blow up
I adore the stealth factor of my S5, it is a great deal quicker than it appears or for the attention it attracts. It is also not powerful enough to kill you in a moment of over-indulgence, instead it will just rein in your excesses in the understated way that appears to be this cars raison d'etre.
A big, brand new, wide hipped Audi coupe is not stealth lmao. No one sees this car and thinks "wow must be slow" like for most wagons and some sedans
@@papa_pt Here in Europe the A5/A4 is a common sight, and the favored carriage of many senior sales people. The S models are not so wildly "pumped" over their A-series counterparts to cause much distinction to non-car enthusiasts. Most people don't even know that the silver finish door mirrors are a identifying feature of S models and the size of the wheel arches does much to disguise the larger alloys contained there. Other than the quad exhaust there are not a lot of external style cues to pick up on either.
Damn those are some pretty shots.
I was sold on the S5 until I drove the Mercedes AMG C43. Outstanding video quality, I go straight to your videos every time now!!!
Really enjoyed the video - the S5 would work for me ... !
Great video! One suggestion - If you could upload the video just in their original aspect ratio that would be great since the 16:9 TV/monitor will always automatically fit and 21:9 monitor can really enjoy your ultrawide content.
Hey thanks! The reason I upload in 16:9 with the bars is because RUclips's end cards and built in annotations don't work with the native 2.39:1 aspect ratio that I'm delivering this content in. But let me try again on the next video, it's been a few months so they may have updated it.
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy Thanks for the reply. Keep up the good work!!
Sounds better than I thought
This guy makes talking about paddles and quatro sound extremely deep
Man you need to get your hands on a supercharged RC F or GS F. It would be cool to see you do a review and acceleration tests on one of those.
Amazing video- and audioquality, nice cut. Looking for this car because it can pull up to 2000 kg 🙃
Year old video but it’s still great nice job.
Outstanding. Every time I boot my S5 in Sport mode, a Toyota Prius dies. :)
I test drove the 2018 S5 Sportback this weekend with 58,000 miles on it even, and wow was I shocked by the performance and driving engagement all while feeling like the perfect daily long commuter. Sold. Now I’m looking for one with the B&O premium audio. And perhaps a few less miles. But dude only $33,800 for the one I tested. Almost almost signed for it.
I have the RS5 and just bought a S5 so wanted to see some reviews.
Firstly, what a well put together and professional production!
I think the S5 will tick most peoples boxes. I much prefer the styling and performance of the RS5, but the S5 is a much more comfortable drive for me.
Keep up the great work!
you sound like your giving a monologue in an action movie when your in the car XD
You drive way better than the typical NJ driver. ;)
1. Sweet cinematography
2. Awesome review, I'm down to a used RS5 or a S5 Prestige
3. Where did you get that hoodie?
@silentscorpion7219 Thanks! I would go with the RS5. I got that hoodie ages ago, but most likely from Amazon?
Really good review. I dunno about openly promoting drinking and driving though...
Cars I'd like to see this gentleman review:
2019 Kia Stinger GT/GT2 (Twin-Turbo V6)
2019 Genesis G70
2020 Ford Mustang GT 500
2019 Mercedes AMG C63/C63S
Those cars are all on my list and I will get to them, just give me some time 😉
BMW m5 compecion fucked moron
Bro you made this just for me. Your a God. I am leaning toward a rc f or gs f for more reliability. How do u feel this car compares
Thanks man. They compete in completely different segments, but I would say that that Lexus V8 is a gem in terms of reliability. A lot of people praise Lexus for over-engineering it to withstand years of abuse rather than squeeze tremendous power of it. To be honest, if we throw any price variables out the window, I would do the RC-F first, and then the GS-F and the S5 is my last choice in this situation. The Lexus F cars are more in line to compete with the M3 and RS5.
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy but from all my research you could never ever daily a m car. Savage geeses m3 was forever broke and only put on 5k miles. I drive 30k a year. Don't know much about audivreliability. Thanks for the good work and comments
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy I am 6"4 do u think I can fit in a rc f
I can't say for sure with an RC F because I never drove one. But with the GS-F, there was plenty of adjustment room. Same goes for the S5, plenty of room for tall people at least in terms of seat adjustment.
Love it
Great work as always. Besides the R8, Audi's have always just been so bland to me. Rather take an AMG. Looking forward to that C43 comparison.
how to let the car shift by itself at 6000 rpm? mine always auto shift round only 3000-4000 rpm on dynamic mode.
Nice
You should do one for a 1980's lada.
Damnit!!!! I missed it!!!!
Haha! I had to switch it up on this one, because I'm travelling and didn't have consistent internet to publish at my usual 2:30.
Sounds like your making a advert for a razor!
Your enthusiasm makes me want to slit my wrists! 🤣 Loved the video!
