Living with the new AUDI RS 4 2020

[@JoeAchilles1]

Hope you're a well, figured I would shoot this little video with the RS 4 before it went back to Audi UK. Please remember to give the actual video a thumbs up if you enjoy it 👍

[@poroussi]

Joe Achilles I like your sunglasses, I can see they are oakleys, but which one exactly?

[@G1installs]

I asked Joe before and he replied, they are Crossrange Patch.

[@nickg1932]

Quick question, rs4 or Glc 63 amg? non facelift versions.

[@kendrickriver1351]

I know it's quite randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to stream newly released series online?

[@rafaelliam471]

@Kendrick River lately I have been using FlixZone. You can find it on google =)

[@akeene30]

Love my RS4...so blimin quick on UK B roads. If you’re speccing one or looking for an early ‘18 car ensure it’s got Adaptive Susp, the B&O sound (Standard fit item is dog turd) and pan roof....

[@DeltaDubai03]

As much as I liked the Live Q&A, it is a real pleasure to watch a brand new traditional video. It is a detailed analysis and review of this Audi. A great video, as usual.

[@Amit_l92]

Great car the new RS4 👌Got high hopes for the upcoming new RS3.

[@christianb.4385]

I always enjoy your videos. I'd like to see you review some Porsches, the new 911, a cayman or boxster GTS, GT line cars as well. Just to hear your take on it! Cheers

[@PetrolPed]

Mega vid mate and looks like an awesome car 👌

[@TomPeacock]

Great video Joe! Guys CTRL&SHIFT CLOTHING IS TOP QUALITY VERY IMPRESSED WITH MY JUMPER! BEEN THROUGH THE WASH A FEW TIMES AND IT STILL COMES OUT CRISP AND FRESH! GO GO GO NOW GRAB SOME SWAG

[@olliemorgan974]

Great to see you out in the RS4 again Joe! Big fan of that thing

[@dickie8184]

I always enjoy myself in a car that feels faster than it is. It's your human senses that are extremely hard to be fooled. Love a fast estate though.

[@chianghowe2]

The engine sounds lovely....

[@markymark3295]

Gotter love all the RS models there absolutely delightful 😃🔥💪💪

[@raymck2115]

keep the great content coming and thanks for making the effort, liking the Q&A

[@lightningthunder5928]

Excellent video so calming and soothing to watch

[@mprinsgsxr]

Thanks for the video Joe, always look forward to any new releases. Surely been asked before but which would you take over this RS4 and the M340i Estate ? ;-)

[@davidwatts836]

Love your KZbin clips joe always! Honest critique about any car you’ve tested 😉✊👍

[@davidstewart2884]

Hi Joe hope you are well at this covid time. I really enjoy your videos and I pic up my M140i shadow next Monday 👍😎 I was wondering if you have any more hoodies left? Best regards Dave

[@JoeAchilles1]

Hey David, that's great news, really hope you love it! Yeah we have grey non zip and black with zip hoddies available on our site www.ctrlandshift.com Thank you 👌

[@coltoncleveringa8004]

Found your channel through petrol ped! Very cool car and awesome videos sir

[@carllamb6711]

Hi joe great video mate I’m new to your channel after seeing you on Peter’s video yesterday looking forward to your next video together with stef

[@colla555]

That interior sound actually sounds like a fake 5-cylinder sound from the speakers. (pretty clever, sound raspier than a V6)

[@DjNikGnashers]

Thank you Joe, really enjoyed the video. Personally, the RS4 is not a car I aspire to own. It's a very capable machine, but a bit too clinical for me. I can't get on with flat bottom steering wheels, and AWD just doesn't inspire me at all. But, I really enjoyed watching your review.

[@markjones338]

This exact car is forsale at Audi in Crewe For £58880 right now lol

[@JoeAchilles1]

Haha good spot!

[@mc4130]

Wouldn’t mind so much if it was just Joe that had it, but Mat’s attempts to donut this same car make me worry for the poor car a bit...

[@rogerioleandromelo6886]

Joe Achilles, boa tarde, parabéns pelo seu canal, você que testa várias máquinas, qual você levaria para casa, AUDI RS4, BMW X3 M COMPETITION, AUDI RS5 SPORTBACK, se você tivesse que escolher 1 entre os 3 qual seria.

[@giovannigallo8429]

Nice video Joe 👍🏻 I still think the RS feels special. Those that have a fleeting experience of it, do not get it..

[@df9834]

Lovely car but personally find the outside very boring to look at, considering the performance under the bonnet! Just my opinion! But a awesome car

[@RedsReptiles]

Why you made the comparison to an m2 comp is absolutely beyond me, that's like comparing a ram to a HGV

[@scottfromengland2303]

Great car mate 👍🏻 slightly out of my price bracket but I would like to own 1, how does quattro compare to xdrive ?

[@costasdagoulas8808]

Keep your great work!!!! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷💪💪💪

[@winstonmcleish2900]

Would the rs4 lack excitement in a convoy if you were chasing a M2 and which covers ground quicker?

[@christianleitner24]

What would you rather pick, the RS4 or a X3/X4 M Competition? (since you have driven them all, I would be curious to know what you think) thx mate

[@Little_Britain74]

Hi Joe.. what would you think of Macan GTS against an RS4? You mention Porsche do things slightly better and these are VERY closely priced new. Can't find a comparison anywhere!

[@johnnyxp64]

question why you were using your mobile phone Google maps when you could connect to the car and see it on your screen with Android auto?

[@davidcupra4913]

Great video joe thanks. Would u rate this much lower than the rs6?

[@tomwalster6078]

Help me Joe!! Love watching your videos. Got a 2019 BMW M5 (not competition) or one of these?! I’m 6ft3! Both nice cars but can’t decide! Help!

[@776badnic]

Would you buy an RS6 2017 or RS4 2020 and why?

[@calvingraham7511]

Great video as usual, what are the shades your wearing ?

[@craigworkman637]

Dear Joe, thanks for the videos, they are enjoyable to watch... I am considering a purchase of the RS4 and was wondering if you ever had the comparison to the former S4 3.0 turbo (petrol)? Wondering apart from the power increase if the handling was better and the car itself was worth the extra 😬 any comments from the community would be much appreciated. Keep healthy everyone 😊 take care Craig

[@williamtran4727]

gg

[@ghowells5433]

I own a new rs3 sport edition and a bit disappointed with the sound and lack of fun factor. Would you recommend the rs4?

[@Keano04JCW]

This rs4 or an m340i touring?

[@aj_mooseman]

So...£45K to spend on a estate/touring/avant what ever you wanna call them, where you putting your money, new M340i used Rs4 avant E53??

[@wurf5336]

what the hell this car went NEW from 60k to 120k€ :O

[@proinseasokiellig4388]

Is the RS4 more agile than the RS6? Do you feel a differance with the size?

[@MODIT]

All of us state side are extremely jealous we can not get them here :-(

[@ianmitchell9102]

Great video 👍🏻

[@jamiepickles1879]

Another enjoyable Video

[@neelamjogan3266]

Outstanding

[@marklawrence4857]

Hi Joe, I decided to go with an RS4 rather than spending another £15k for the Cupra R ST ABT. The RS4 has £8k worth of options. Please see image below, fancy doing a review on it? I'm hoping to have some DTM livery added very soon😊

[@santana9537]

M3 needs to hurry up

[@zsoltkorompay6932]

What do you think about the throttle lag in the RS4? I have a particularly bad experience with the new post 2019 ZF8 transmission software in the new Audis.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thankfully it's not too bad in the RS 4, I do have the same findings, but mostly in anything with their nonsense "mild hybrid system". The worst offenders are diesel 6 pots with mild hybrids, I tested the new allroad recently and nothing happened for the first 3 seconds of putting your foot down... It's all ironically down to WLTP testing which is only here due to the VAG group diesel gate 😂🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[@zsoltkorompay6932]

@@JoeAchilles1 I was promised by Audi UK that a fix will be developed but it's been almost a year and still no resolution. What I don't understand how come such design flaw hasn't yet gone public. I'm at the point to trade my 1 year old car in which was £69k brand new.

[@1234567robbie]

Sounds like your starting to realize Audi is the king !

[@JoeAchilles1]

They make awesome cars, but like I say in this video, they lack the outright exciment and driver engagement compared to cars like my M2 C

[@1234567robbie]

Joe Achilles thanks for response ! Yes your right I’m probably a little biased but you must admit the inside quality of Audi is awesome

[@JoeAchilles1]

Yeah Audi cabins and interiors are king 🙌

[@1234567robbie]

Enjoyed your involvement with Matt when you did the Car Wow dragrace !

[@FLY1NF1SH]

*auto subtitles at the beginning*: [applause]

[@neophiri4079]

Joe that’s a very interesting observation, “although the M2 comp has less power it feels faster” my theory is this. When you put Beems on track compared to the equivalent Audi, they generally tend to be faster. E.g. previous gens RS4’s (v8) Vs e92 m3. Not sure have bmw have managed to make cars that appear to make less power, to be able to lap quicker. So you’re probably spot on, that the m2 Comp would probably be able to go down a piece of windy tarmac quicker than an rs4 Avant.

[@Gez492]

Nope if you timed it the RS4 would probably be quite a bit quicker. Not scrabbling for grip or trying to kill its occupants. I think thats what Joe is talking about when he says it feels faster. As well as the noise , which will give you that sense of speed too. Your local Go kart track will feel like you are going 100mph when in fact you are doing 30-40 max. This 2020 RS4 is brilliant. I love Audi red with the black pack.

[@VIPERITE16]

Gerald's right imo, the RS4 is ofcourse heavier due to size and running gear, it sticks to the tarmac and powers through apex's, the M2 is a typical RWD car, you're fighting it on every aggressive corner which adds to the excitement and sense of speed.

[@Michael-yz4mc]

I have always found that Audi’s never feel as fast as they really are. Perhaps has something to do with the AWD or insulation.

[@1234567robbie]

No Rs4 is much quicker

[@scottfromengland2303]

Hate to burst your bubble,but to have power running through all 4 wheels will cause a loss of power compared to 2 wheels.. add the extra weight of the extra front 2 wheels being driven through a diff & you will see the bmw accelerate quicker - it's physics 👍🏻 round the bends the Audi could be a bit faster but after the bend the BMW will come back.. watch car wow's quarter mile racing as an extra bit of proof 😀 both lovely cars though & I would like to own an RS4 all day long 👍🏻

[@freeglide24]

What Oakley Sunglasses are you wearing?

[@G1installs]

Crossrange Patch, joe said in previous vid.
