Driven's final episode takes things up a notch, with three entry-level luxury sedans - the Audi A3 1.8 TFSI Sedan, Mercedes CLA 200 and BMW 316i. Which should you put your hard-earned money on?

CLA250 is hands down the sexiest vehicle I have seen in a long time In a world of uninspired, mundane, stale cars hitting the market...the CLA250 just shines like a diamond in the rough

Guys you did a great job! I purchased the a3 quattro version 2016 and its amazing.I agree that even when im driving to the variety store in my trackpants it feels like im going somewhere special in this car.The key with these cars is to load them up with features to feel luxurious.Such as power passenger seats,dual climate,interior ambient lighting, navigation,keyless ignition, etc. Without these upgrades you will feel stupid driving the 4 rings thats missing the important stuff.

Blessed 2015, dear fellow fans! In my honest opinion (talking about compact executive or shorter D-segment cars), and now, with the arrival of the NEW and REAL-deal W205 Merc C-Class, I think you guys should pitch that new C-class together with Beemer 320 (at least) and Audi A4 (no more A3 please - A3 quattro or not, and that Merc CLA should best be coined as sport sedans instead of anything else, IMHO), Lexus IS and the Infiniti Q50. As for sub-RM200k D-segmenters, how about pitching the likes of the ALTERNATIVE choices such as Chevy Malibu, Hyundai Sonata LF, with the facelifted Peugeot 508, VW Passat as well as the upcoming new Ford Mondeo for this year? And how about pitching an episode which you can name as "THE BUDGET HATCH Dilemma: How worthy can they be for less than 6-digit Malaysian pricing" showcasing the likes of Ford Fiesta to pitch with the likes of Kia Rio, Mazda 2, Honda Jazz 2014 as well as Malaysia's own all-new Proton Iriz 1.6 Executive which are powered up by engines of 100 bhp and more? Alternatively, the Perodua MyVi 1.3 can also be pitched with the Kia Picanto, Mitsubishi Mirage AND the Iriz 1.3 for the less than 100 bhp or 1.2L/1.3L category as well. As for C-segmenters, how about a pitch between alternatives such as VW Jetta and Nissan Sylphy with the Peugeot 408 and Renault Fluence (in a C-segment battle of East versus West)? Cheers!

Based on the episode, I'd summarise the 3 series as the most practical car of the 3. Boring to look at, yes, but I don't find the Audi any better than the BMW. The CLA 200 is really beautiful to look at, what a shame.

I'll give a constructive criticism to the episodes of car reviews so far, it has been great to see Malaysians finally did some of these reviews, but sometimes the reviews caught of topic, maybe too much jokes or other funny concepts they try to put into it. I hope these cars can be reviewed professionally because they are many serious watchers out there would take it seriously based on the things said in the video, so i hope you guys will have more passion to bring out more of the car itself instead of funny jokes. Thank you.

I agree. The faux rivalry and the jokes that usually comes with it are starting to bore me. It's starting to look more like an act, rather than reviewing the cars objectively. I prefer honest reviews, minus the acting and scripted rivalry. However, I'd like to congratulate the team for creating the best Malaysian video car review so far. Hope the show will be better next season.

A3 is fast but it over-priced. It's the same price as the a4 and that car is fully loaded CLA is drop dead gorgeous, maybe it's flaws of space can be overlooked. But the gearbox is terrible and ride is crap 316i is boring. Exterior and interior are boring. But at this price point, probably the best value. But it doesn't handle well. That's the M sport.

The A3 is still the best performer though, add an extra 40k for all wheel drive, great gearbox and good 0-100 time, worth the money if you ask me. But the CLA unfortunately picks up more chicks.

Here in Germany, they call audi drivers either a pro or a show off. That's because you get the most hp for the least price. So either you're a young guy wanting the most hp, or a pro that can handle high hp. However the handling is not as good as the BMW. I'll take the BMW home anytime if I have the money! Top handling, good AT and good looks (at least for me).
