There is something about the displays in the Mercedes that is somehow impressive and detracting at the same time. Personally both cars are great, but just coming down to interaction points would make the difference for me. Interaction points and visual integration of the tech is better in the audi, while the Mercedes would probably be more stunning in a show room but more cumbersome in day to day use.

I believe Mercedes made a mistake going all screen and capacitive buttons. Honda seems to have learned this and current new vehicles have the right mix of screens and physical buttons. Quality at Mercedes has suffered at the expense of style and bling.

@IhabFahmy Жыл бұрын

Agree... except that there's more "bling" than "style" in both vehicles, and unfortunately doubly so in the new C-class. After the B6 generation of the A4 and the W203 generation of the Mercedes, all their style and elegance went downhill.

I drive a C class estate, and I don't see any downside for the bigass center screen. It's extremely handy for GPS navigation and for rear camera display, and if you don't feel like talking to your car, most of the control can be done through buttons on the steering wheel anyway. As for those saying that it won't age well, or will become junk, well it's been more than a year now, and it feels and looks as great as it did a year ago. So I understand that not everyone like this style, and that many prefer the designs of BMW, Audi or whatever, but as for the quality, it's there. Undeniably.

Audi's have always disappointed until very recently. The new RS3 is the new benchmark for Audi handling. This A4 clearly has decent steering feel and doesn't understeer as much as previous A4's.

Just bought the S-Line prestige and I attest, it drives phenomenal. You feel as if it’s gripping the road and you get crazy driving confidence. I’m fairly young (31) and the technology is just right. Anymore screen or larger screens, you lose my interest. I love the physical buttons and the interior is elegant yet, very luxurious. Now that being said, I think the Mercedes looks better on the outside. It’s more young, sporty and sexy. But when you buy an Audi, the decision comes with humility. The decision is to treat yourself and not others. Let’s just say the right people will be impressed.

Finally someone that lays it true instead of getting lulled by the s class design elements. The audi still feels better overall driving and material wise in the interior. It comes down to whether the driver wants the more connected feel of driving with the audi or if they prefer a more of car driving you around feeling of the merc. The only thing I don't like about the A4 is that the tablet design sticking out of the dashboard is a big no. I have the new A3 and I love it so much more for the interior tech design upgrades.

Excellent detailed revue Thomas, I like your analysis. In the past I've had many Audi A4 and now I have a C class ( albeit a previous model) and I think you are spot-on. Like other people I don't like the change to total touch screens instead of simple buttons, they've all gone just too far. However the biggest issue for me here in the UK is that both Audi and Mercedes offer predominantly dismal black interiors. I prefer lighter interiors and these are just not available particularly on AMG models where Mercedes seems to think everyone wants 'boy-racer' black. £50,000 and I can only get black !

Wrong. Prior to the electrified steering F30, the 3-series was the definitive benchmark, not just with respect to steering but also overall agility, cornering, etc. Even since the F30 I’d still rather have that than an A4 but the difference is no longer that big.

As a pre-facelift 3 series driver, I have to agree with the current generation. I believe BMW had nailed it nearly perfectly with the G20/G21 input-wise. The facelift seems such a massive step backwards - I'm really disappointed in this and it's also really hard to comprehend the decision making process behind it. Audi seems to have the lead again in this regard regarding the climate controls, but it's again sad that the controls in the center are gone.

I'm a few months late but my 2 cents: I have had the 2022 Mercedes C300 since August 2022 (I ordered it in August 2021!) and would return it tomorrow if I could (mine is the mid-level trim package, 3-year lease). All of the touch controls and software are super glitchy and the braking is an abomination. The squishy pedal feel when applying brake pressure is the worst experience I have ever had and totally disconcerting. If this is attributable to the regenerative braking caused as a result of the mild hybrid engine, hard to believe that Mercedes engineers could not figure out how to make the brakes better. For the brake problem alone, I would not recommend this car. The glitchy software and touch controls along with the extended MBUX system learning curve seal the deal: do not buy (or lease). I am unfamiliar with the Audi A4 but I enjoyed this comparison review very much. I do love watching videos of the excessive speeds achieved on the Autobahn (I especially love the reviewers driving one handed). For me: I live on Long Island in New York and for anyone whose driven on the Long Island Expressway (along with many other Long Island roads built in the 1930s) watching these videos is a fantasy.

Nice review Thomas. I just ordered an A4 40 TDI Quattro Ultra. Why? Best sport seats (leather) comfort wise, best suspension (sport adaptive dampers) and last but not least best steering feel, exactly as you described. Though there is no more dynamic steering, but the standard one is fine as well. Beyond that, it has far less weight than the competitors, even with AWD. I had also an G20 for 6 months, but the steering is really annoying, even after professional alignment you need corrections constantly while drivng straight ahead - this is a mess and not only with my G20. I tested several ones in order to buy one, but I simply can't get used to it. The same is with the Z4 G29 - strange center steering at all. The new C-Class is out of scope: to expensive, too heavy and the look and feel is somewhat strange by itself and feels cheap (like VW and Audi do with their new series).

The most recent generation of MB's interiors are gimmicky. In particular, from "less is more" stand point of view, I would assign a grade of F to them. MB should work on learning what to reduce, what to remove, and what to focus on. In this regard, Audi is clear the winner. Thank you, Thomas, for a great review.

I received for a several days business trip a similar A4 (from the rental company) and I was a bit dissapointed, doesn't feel so expensive as the price tag shows. After a cople of weeks I received also an almost similar Mercedes (C300 4matic, only AMG line) and I realised that actually A4 was not so bad.

Very informative comparison Thomas, thank you! You mentioned that the suspension in the A4 is the perfect balance between comfort and handling. I was wondering if it's even better than the air suspension in the A6. I mean, sure the air suspension gives you that "flying carpet" ride and is very soft over bumps, but the overall comfort, i suppose is defined by various factors. Such as, the absence of body roll in the corners, how fast the car settles down after hitting a road imperfection, the impact of G-forces on the passengers and so on. Taking all of these into consideration, do you think that an adaptive suspension in the A4 is a more comfortable set up than the air suspension in a A6?

Great review Thomas, as always!, why Audi does not have a exterior S-line? At least it does not looks like it have even if you said it is S-line. My recent personal choice was Audi A4 Avant 45 tfsi Quattro (we can’t buy 50tdi here in Sweden it only available on Allroad model), due to exact, interior, ergonomics and natural driving experience.

Nice comparison but I disagree on the ride comfort settings. I like it how there is a big difference between comfort and sport in the C class. If you want constant balance there is no point in having the different dynamic options to select.

Unbelievable how well the A4 ages. It's still a very pretty car, even in comparison to the ultra modern W206. That said, why for Pete's sake do literally ALL modern cars have to be "sporty"? I hate sporty. Sporty nowadays almost always ends up in somewhat tacky, trashy or posh design details. Yuck! I want a car to be elegant, well proportioned and modest in a distinguished way. So no fake exhausts for me, or pops and bangs, phony diffusers, blinded intakes, comfort ruining oversized wheels and tyres and so on.... Anyone feeling the same? 😊

When you borrow these cars from the dealerships you should take the time to go thru the technology with the personal there. To have the panoramic roof or screen to open you just use the MBUX system and say (Hey Merecedes) open/close the roof or screen. The system will cut on the heat for the car and heated seats, control temp of the car and seats, control the radio stations/volume and more all you have to do is ask.
