Thank you. My favourite was always the RS3 because it is the right size for what I like. Soon these will look like horse and buggies when EVs become the norm so choose your last one carefully.

Uuuf me as a huge audi fan a veery tough one hehe, the soullles ones are already out the el.cars 😅...and for finall and tough time for picking i would pick the RS7 💪🔥

Is the power different from the US variant. Here in America it's 591-hp and 621-hp for the performance edition. Also the exhaust sounds better than mine. I've owned both the avant and I currently own the performance edition

I drive a 2022 m5 comp matte black and a 2024 cayenne s hybrid pebble grey. I would go for the ms instead. The RS and s models are too overpriced. Sometimes a s costs more than an m comp. Like an audi sq5 is 95k when a x3m comp is 84k. Not js m is cheaper, the Porsche gts, amgs are also cheaper than the s and rs models. A Audi rs5 is 158k, S5 is 92k, amg e53 (2023 model) is 79k and a e63 is 144k, Panamera gts is 148k. So yea I would go for m def

New S5 Avant is £73k starting price, probably going to be at least £80k for the Black Edition and more with options. A M340 Touring, fully loaded, £71k. The BMW is better looking, has a much better interior and is faster. Also BMW finance rate is half what Audi are quoting. I've owned several Audi RS, e.g. RS3, TTRS, RS4 and right now, RS4 Competition. My next car will not be an Audi. They've gone too far with their pricing and the quality has really dropped - just look at the new A5 (A4)...

@@mauricetoussaint7283 in Canada. M340 Is 64k, the s4 is 80k. Audi is too overpriced. Their luxury and good performance but not the best performance and def not worth being more expensive than Porsche

Great u re with us for so long 🙏🙏

Rs7 or Porsche panamera or Mercedes s class staying within that 125-130k range what would be the best daily driver in your opinion? Or other?

[@autogefuehl]

I did like this Panamera spec (even though PHEV wouldnt be needed depending on country): kzbin.info/www/bejne/amXXiaeerb1jgNE Best daily driver I d say S7

[@jorgegranados194]

@@autogefuehl s7 NOT rs7 correct?

[@autogefuehl]

S7 better as daily. Both great but S7 some more comfort of course and 6-cyl is enough. RS7 ofc if u really are into the power

Animal skin is better

[@autogefuehl]

Thank you very much for your interest in this topic. I also bought cars with animal skin leather seats before I did my research and got to know the industry. The most important thing is: With today's modern materials, you have nothing to lose, just to gain. You achieve the same kind of luxury and comfort or even better while having the same or better durability with less impact on humans, animals and the environment. You can use fabric/cloth, microfibre or leatherette. The classic approach is using oil/plastic as source material. Overall, a vehicle contains about 300 kg plastic. A car seat needs about 5 kg plastic. So the overall plastic share for the seats is very low and it is at this moment the most efficient way to produce a car seat. A couple of litres of fuel equals a car seat basically. So if you want to save oil/plastic, rather look at consumption for energy, fuel and heating and to other car parts than the seat. Note that animal skin leather also always contains a plastic coating for durability. However, long-term we should of course find raw oil alternatives. So going further, seats can be made from recyclables (e.g. from PET-bottles or old fishing nets) or even increased share of plant-based materials (like pine oil, canola oil or start-up materials like Pinatex from pineapple leaves or Desertex from cactus fibre or the mixed-plant-based Mirum, so be seen at kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWLEf42bpMano6c). On a calculation base, by ditching animal skin leather from car interiors, the amount of emissions (CO2e) is reduced by 85 (!) % (www.press.bmwgroup.com/africa-dom-easteurope/article/detail/T0403389EN/on-the-market-from-2023:-bmw-and-mini-models-with-vegan-interiors?language=en) - and that is a very conservative calculation. So it is at this moment the most important thing you can do to make car interiors more sustainable. A good example for high-end luxury with ventilated animal free seats is the BMW X7 with Sensafin: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6G1f56NbtOlqNk And the Kia EV9 with plant-based oil share: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKe7loOHnsSAd80 New leatherette materials can be superior in every aspect, even for cleaning: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2qXiouAbJeIiqM More and more natural materials are rising: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIO2pIt7o9x7etE Also check out what the animal skin leather industry tried to with our channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIHCdKmCocZ5oqs For seeing how the animals are being treated and transported in the global leather industry, watch this footage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpzNdHSjppaSbqc Note that the footage is genuine and was recorded by a highly decorated investigative journalist in Germany I know myself personally. Also a group of researchers and German journalists from public media could recent directly trace the connection between car animal leather production and illegal burning down Amazon rain forest: www.daserste.de/information/reportage-dokumentation/ard-story/videos/illegales-leder-video-100.html In a high animal skin grade, the animals are specifically raised for this matter. However even if meat is the "first" misuse case, the hide remains a profitable body part. That means: If manufacturers put animal leather in a car and you demand it as a customer, you give your money to an industry that earns money by oppressing humans, animals and harms the environment, you make them more profitable. Alternatively, you could support industries with your wallet which try to improve the sustainability of materials. Also, if you turn the argument around to "meat is the waste of the leather industry" you realize that it doesn't make sense (and is ethically doubtful) to discuss the primary use of individual body parts of mammals. Mind experiment: You are getting slain down on the street; would it matter to you if it was for your smartphone or for your purse? Remember that animal skin leather is no different to fur, fur is just leather where the hair is still on. And fur is widely not accepted for clothing anymore, and of course not for cars. We cannot change what we have bought in the past, but with more information and compassion we can change how we decide in the future.
