I drove all theese cars in a row and can absolutely approve Mat's statements. A Class: Okay in isolation but so much worse than the other two in every Category. Especially road noise and refinement of the engine are extremely bad. Wait, the driver interfaces are even worse. Steering wheel cuts hands, seat are hard but without side bolstering, Gas pedal to light to carry the foot, knee rubs on the center console. 1 Series: Oldest appearance, but still so well built and thought out. Best driver interfaces (steering, gas pedal, gearbox, seats)... Just feels like a part of your body. Puts the biggest smile on your face. A3: Technology beast. Everything so well to look at, to touch and to use. Plus everything absolutely intuitive and easy to use. Stunning in that regard. But gearbox, steering feel and front wheel drive can't match the bmw. Feels clinical, like a video game. I would and will take the Beamer, because it just drives so much better than the others!

Great review. Personally just sold a golf R and bought a 1 series BMW. As a drivers car it's just head shoulders above everything in the small car segment for both fun and that cockpit feel in the cabin. Also love the 8 speed so much more than the dsg. Sure the vw/audi is super practical but you have to love driving it and for this bmw is the winner for me.

It is strange that Matt always gives us the lowest prices you can get these cars for, but then shows us the top of the range versions (S-Line, M-Sport). If you pay bottom prices for any of these cars you are getting nothing more than what you'd get with an Astra or Focus (if not less for similar money). However if you go for a full spec Audi A3 S-Line (for example) then the prices Matt mentions in this comparison video are meaningless.

[@theyruinedyoutubeagain]

I love the BMW (drove it a lot, excellent city car) but there's just something about the Audi that speaks to me. I think it's the fact that, like many Audis, looks very capable, in a winter jacket kind of way, if that makes any sense. That's why the Audi RS6 is one of my favourite cars ever. Also, anecdotally the Audi dealerships I've been to have been very friendly, as opposed to the BMW ones (got mad at my 3 yo son for going near an M6, wtf).

Beyond that, we would like to know about ease of phone storage, docking, charging, and antenna amplification. Keep up the good work.

T George, it has but it's had a face lift that will see it past both the others. That BMW hatch was never nice, and I'm not sure if it's the colour on that merc, but it looks fat and dumpy. My friend has one with the AMG styling, (2l diesel) it thst grey/silver, and looks nice, but in white, it looks wrong. I don't think either will look fresh in 5years time. I reckon the audi will.

[@tgeorge4184]

Hello Stephen! Yes i do agree with you on the topic of the white paint on the Merc and its so flat she looks so bad. But i have seen many of these on the road and i would pick the Merc over both the Audi and the BMW. The only Audis i have ever liked has been the B7 RS4 and the 1st gen v10 R8s. Beautiful cars! No other Audi has really done it for me. Other than in the case of these cars, i personally feel like Audi has always taken a 'milder' approach to exterior design. Yes, some will say they might look fresh in 5years time. Or, will they?;-)

[@TonyyHD]

I got those 3 vehicles at home and I'm surprisingly in line with this review. These are fantastic cars but the final choice will be based on your priorities and on what you expect from a car. The A class with the AMG Pack is definitely the most desirable one, Audi has the best interior and more practicality and BMW is the most fun to drive.

[@markmclean1979]

I’ve had three Audi A3 over the past 6 years and was seriously reluctant to try anything else. Style, interior practicality and driving capabilities are all good. All my family drive BMW’s so I half heartedly bought a 2018 118d (rear wheel drive), not expecting to love it. Boy was I wrong. In every area it blows the a3 out of the water. Far more fun to drive, less road noise providing runflats are changed, boot is every bit as practical, seats fold flatter so easier to load long items, interior quality far superior with no unwanted rattles and exterior styling (personal preference) is much better. 1 series has a far nicer shape and more aggressive road presence. Gets a lot more comments than any of my A3’s ever did. All I all I am completely sold. I appreciate the a3 and respect it is a brilliant all rounder but I urge any Audi loyal drivers to try a 1 series. All of my family started with Audi and since migrating to BMW they will never go back.

[@stephandolby]

Audi TT UK Well, perhaps not premium per se, however they're very well bolted together, the materials are good, the dash designs are very modern and reliability is very good, so the price and especially resale values will be inflated.

Chatta290 I guess that's true, most don't care nowadays. But I care. I've driven many front wheel drive cars and always had a better experience with rear wheel drive. Sure, at low speed, there's not really much a difference at all. But putting your foot down, motorway, highway, junctions, it's always a nicer pull away with RWD. But then when you get on track and throw in some oversteer round the corner or drift through a chicane. That's mighty. In the end, it was a 1 series, no car matters until it hits the 3 series. I'm sure they don't ditch RWD on that. :)

[@joebloggs4191]

®ioT - or you could look at it this way. VW are essentially giving you the same car with little tweaks here and there which probably doesn't cost them that much from one brand to another yet you will pay a large difference between say a Skoda to a VW to a Audi. Seems a bit of a rip off to me. And you say tested components but when there is a problem a heck of lot more cars are affected e.g the recently emissions scandal or the the problems VAG had with their 1.4 engines etc.

A3 all the way.

[@kingspencer2234]

I live in America, and it's weird to see Mercedes, BMW, and Audi cars that look like regular compact cars. They only import their luxury cars here

[@albasheer2014]

When are you guys going to do 'CLS vs 6 Seried Gran Coupe vs Audi A7'????

[@rob3018]

And the winner is... The *Audi A3,* "Over £5,000 worth of options on it." FFS!🤦‍♂️

[@VoloKinProject]

+carwow I love your videos but please sort out the sound once and for all. Its very annoying on headphones.

[@Giljan7]

I agree with the decision .... but the question is why not just buy a Golf then ? Its basically the same car as the Audi underneath the body and you have to admit the MK 7 has everything that these cars do ... better infotainment system aswell cause its a touch screen system :)

[@almightysloth7627]

why are you using the sport back and not the normal a3? doesnt thatcmake the test a little unfair in the practicality segment?

[@s4m155]

Why wasn't the Ford Focus added I know it's way cheaper but still?

[@carwow]

+s4m155 I've done that vs the Astra and golf

[@s4m155]

carwow Oh yeah I totally forgot 😭

[@BigJay1918]

These are premium hatchbacks and they're direct competitors, focus isn't. Focus goes up against Astra.

Virtual cockpit is one of those gimmicks no one ever asked for that is now being marketed as a major tecnological innovation.

[@stinger15au]

Chicken Soup for the Loser have you tried it? it really is amazing. looks and feels premium, easy to use and just blasts the dash setups from the others by a mile. as usual for audi, it is extremely well done.

[@rtownz251251]

You've clearly never used it. Once you have the navigation setting in front of you you'll be blown away by how convenient it is and how nice it looks. Showed it to a lot of my friends which all agreed (Didn't buy the car but had it for a 24 hour test drive).

[@stinger15au]

rtownz251251 well i own a rs3 and have for 6 months. it is good but honestly not as intuitive as the idrive. I am used to it now though

[@joebloggs4191]

Dont know how many people will spec it here its a 2000 euro option

[@stinger15au]

joe bloggs we were talking about the mmi. but as for the virtual cockpit, its good enough i think a fair few will take it

[@MinhPham0407]

It is so weird that the Mer A-Class has bigger and better styling screen than the C-Class!

[@MrAniruddhajog]

It’s surprising that mercedes a class has gone from a base price of 20k to almost 35k now
