Mercedes did a great job with the A Class. There's an article where they discuss exactly how they took the criticism of the old one and then specifically went about improving it. They actually listened to the owners and the public. The best thing Mercedes did as well however was to replace the COMAND system with MBUX. It's well ahead.

5:02 THANK YOU! You are the first reviewer who noticed that Audi's interior is a mess. Because as much as I love the new exterior design, I just detest the interior. PS. Golf in the UK appears to be very expensive, here in Poland you'd need to pick 1.5l engine and let a bit loose with the options for the Golf to catch the very base Audi/BMW/Merc when it comes to the price. And those very base premiums are often quite basic and you have to pay for things you never expected at this price point (base BMW 1 has steel wheels, halogen headlamps and no cruise control).

I've got an A200 AMG manual saloon. I've had it since October 19. Its a great car, but, it should noted it has a Renault sourced engine, which in my opinion is an adequate, but, average engine. The manual gearbox is excellent , which is the upside of the Renault partnership , because merc manuals are pretty rubbish. The interior is better than anything on the market, and I say that having owned an A3 before that. I've done 16k so far, and completely trouble free. Look at the saloon version if you're interested in one. Its so much quieter. I would strongly recommend

BMW 1 > A-class > A3 =Golf. Depends where you live. In Australia A-class is way too expensive and less option included in basic package. BMW 1 has increased price by $1000, but still very generous options provided and interior is the best in this class. New A3 not released in Aussie market, but Audi Australia expected a decent price increase and same for 8th Golf. Golf is actually cheap car with cheap material so it's kind of out-of-league here.

Matt, why do you not seriously criticise the lack of physical buttons on the new Golf 8? Most car reviewers are scathing about VW’s move to touch screens for basic controls like aircon and volume. And the capacitive buttons on the steering wheel are almost unworkable. But you give VW a free pass on their terrible new driver interface. Why?

@latlak4 жыл бұрын
I have the new 1 series, had the old one before. Both have the standard suspension and the new one is noticeably better. More comfort, more sportiness. The new one is quieter, more efficient although it has the same engine. But the steering was way better in the old one. I can't seem to shake this weird throttle impact when going out of a corner although I thought the "new" DSC system ported from the i3 would help with that. Overall a great daily and I got it even cheaper than the old one, wouldn't wanna change for the Golf, A3 or A Class. Personally I like the BMW's design the most.
@aaronx13772 жыл бұрын
I also agree with u, the old one used to have that sensation of a light car when u pressed the acceletaror and the brake, but of course ,at the same time good horsepower. The proof that some Cars like the new Golf can be faster that the serie 1 ,using the same engines is because its heavier, as Matt saif the new serie 1 feels heavy when u drive it.

I first really disliked the exterior of the Golf. But I have sort of warmed up to it. The front is still pretty dodgy from certain angels, but it looks better in person (and is HEAVILY wheels dependent). In general I think for the price that I pay on my lease it is by far the best overall package. Even compared to other cars like the CEED and Megane. Maybe the car you had Mat, didn't have the adaptive suspension? I think not, looking at the blank on the dashboard. I have a Golf with that setup and in Sport Mode it has insane levels of grip, it stays really flat and actually steers pretty sharply. I haven't had understeer even once in this car. Went to the Spanish Pyrenean and I could take corners way quicker than I ever could in my 2019 Corolla from last year.
@trader24734 жыл бұрын
I must coment! You are right man, Golf doesnt have adaptive suspension. Im watched every single video review of Golf. And every single one is impressed with suspension setup when ist equiped with adaptive one, even mat when is tested it for first time it was impressed. So just to resume, u cant get better in hatch segment than you can in Golf. It was and it is and would be forever be king of segment. The look, the technology, all in one package, and then you have little smaler price. So my pickup is Golf all the time. Once again it would kick ass every opponet in this segment. And if you consider GTD, GTI, R, then every single of this look boring compared to Golf. GTD king of diesel hot hatches, GTI and R kiling it with look, and completly setup. S3 is aways step down compared to R. A3 generaly is not good as in previous generation. Golf kick his ass in this one really!

Finally a review that everyone hear will like because the cars relate to 99% of the people. But firstly well done to all four for producing such good cars. All four will do well for their owners and as Matt said it’ll be down on looks and people’s practically. The golf will sell more, it’s looks are weird but it does everything else really well. The bmw has stepped its game up and defo as a drivers car it’s a good choice. The a class though is a winner as it does tick a lot of boxes. A3 looses as it doesn’t offer much more than a golf but still a very good option. But you can’t say a person is wrong for choosing either car. I would be happy with either but if it was my money I would probs choose a golf.

I am missing a more everyday experience of the cars, think Mat should have driven them longer time. In order to save a little money Golf and too many other cars have saved away the really nice push and rotary buttons to change temperature and fan speed. In most older cars you still have these buttons and it much easier and safer to operate: even in my old Swift I can keep my eyes on the road and operate the climate inside without looking on a screen. I can see Audi and Mercedes has kept a separate section just for this: good. Driving in the dark Golf hasn't even lit up the temperature sliders: really bad!
