    I love the way you pay attention to the little things that contribute a lot to the whole experience of the car, like how the buttons feel and sound. I don't think other reviewers keep this in mind. Keep the great reviews coming Thomas!

    From the USA: I think you have the best reviews. When I buy a car I want to know how it handles on the real road and not the race track. You do that better than anyone. Also you give the options of interior and exterior choices and what the benefits or downside might be of each. Fantastic!

    33:56 That was when the dual clutch got wrong prediction bring to you. sry for my english if u could understand. (that moment is the DSG prepared to get higher gear but actually when u put ur feet down suddenly the DSG got wrong prediction so DSG got to move to lower gear from the higher gear, then you get dat kind situation and thats why making dual clutch not reliable bcus its not like AT gearbox, duel clutch only prepare on one gear(Torque converter)

    The best about Autogefuhl is the realism like you said. Not pretend that it is the best car if it isn't. Great job, keep it up:)

    I am noticing that your reviews are getting better from when I originally saw your video. I had commented on another video before on how your comments are only about aggressive drivers. you did reply back to me. I am happy to see that your reviews are better now with more neutral comments and more about the options of the car. you are the only reviewer I noticed that talks about the small details like the clicks of the buttons and vents, while others talk about only the performance of the engine and the looks. everyone else seems to only repeat everyone else's comments.

    1. Virtual cockpit is a necessity. It means more dough but I think it's a really nice innovation that adds to the experience.
    2. Red rings and accents are garish and I normally like red interiors.
    3. I know Thomas likes the seats but they really don't seem like they are that supportive (not much bolstering).
    4. Another great review Thomas!

    Hi Thomas, again a great review! I always love it when you say, 'now the cockpit overview' :) The update on the other trim levels is well explained and I would go for the black front grill, just because its a sportsedan.

    I personally prefer hatchback's but, I really like the Audi S3 sedan, it's a great looking car, almost coupe like. But as a hatch, personally I would have the Mercedes A Class & BMW 1 Series over the A3!, great work again Autogefühl.

  • @JohnDoe-vx3z
    @JohnDoe-vx3z 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    @38:20 you can see the gearbox shifts from 5th to 3rd, and this takes a second or so because a DSG can only preselect an even gear if an uneven gear is engaged (probably the 4th in your case). You can probably influence this by varying throttle input. With all types of automatic transmissions, you can provoke unwanted shifts. The only type of transmission which always does what you want is a manual.

    Would I go for the Virtual Cockpit?
    I wouldn't even consider buying a car that has such a cool thing as an option without it. Anybody buying an Audi without Matrix Leds, the virtual cockpit and no cool rims really misses out on some of the better things in life.

    • @Abbbk35
      @Abbbk35 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Couldn't say it any better.

    • @dllemm
      @dllemm 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Some of these options combined cost upwards of $11,000. I think given the choice, most people would buy a high end car with no options over a low end car with all options. Audi will definitely sell more cars without it, although it might become standard one day.

    • @Justin-yk3ox
      @Justin-yk3ox 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Tough call. You add all the features and you can have a slightly lesser equipped model up. Still worth it though!
      Virtual cockpit is coming to the VW's though... which is kind of a kick in the nuts for Audi drivers.

    • @Evlengr

    Hi Thomas. Thanks a lot for this excellent extended review. I'm planning to buy this new s3 and you made me so happy reviewing it. Since a couple or weeks I'm going dayly to the different Audi websites in order to make my ideal configuration but the car isn't configurable yet. Any idea when this will be possible? I will go for the daytona grey with alcantara as I follow your excellent advise not to go for leather. Thanks a lot for your review👍🏻👍🏻 .You realy made my day 😀😀😀😀

    vitrual cockpit, i have been wiating for it for the A3 range :), very classy and useful, also you can hide the centre retractable screen, to have a less obstructive view of the road.

  • @FreddeP91
    @FreddeP91 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Will just add another comment. You're not the first to notice come weird behavior about the shifting and reving of some Audi models Tomas. My dad has a Audi A6 2.0TDI ultra with the S-tronic from 2014 and he also has experienced some weird behaviors when flooring it. In his case the engine just downshifts and revs, but there is no acceleration until the car shifts to the next gear after the downshift.
    To conclude, there is something wrong here.

    Great review! Very informative! Keep up the good work Thomas. I just wish Audi offered the sport back in the U.S in other models beside the E-Tron.

    Thomas, great review again! Some comments: 186cm is six foot one, as they say in UK; blue paint is georgeous! red inserts NO WAY! smbdy should b fired for this:) virtual cockpit ok as you can castomise what u see (some like more., some like less info) but if it goes wrong...

    So, I'm in the US and we're not getting the "under the hood" updates. My biggest concern is the 6 vs 7 speed transmission. Do you European owners think it's worth the wait for the 7 speed and extra HP?

    Hi Thomas, I do also prefer the chrome grill, although the black does look very good on white S3's. As you mentioned that you like the Sepang Blue colour (not Thomas Blue), well, in fact I am about to test drive a Sepang Blue Audi S3 today, it looks spectacular!.... maybe this will be my new Audi very soon. well done on your review, nice work!

    • @autogefuehl

      Hi, I drove the S3 Sportback (sepang blue with performance package). That means all the sport extras in south hemisphere (Australia). I didn't notice any funny turbo lag, but I didn't drive the car long enough to evaluate it deeply. Also I preferred the dynamic drive mode more than comfort with the drive select system. It worked very well around normal back roads and free ways. It gave the car more stability and solid steer. This seems contrary to most opinions. I think reviews of the S3 from auto channels to be understating and too critical, maybe because of its price and possibly brand bias, but the S3 is a spectacular machine. I want it!

      +Autogefühl hello, well I finally purchased the Sepang Blue S3 Sportback , although 2015/2016 model. I am very happy with the car. No regrets. Thanks for the great review, they do help toward making the decision.

    30:40 Not sure about Germany, but in Hungary, you can do whatever you want on your phone as long as it isn't in your hands. If you have a car mount, you can even play games on it legally. Doesn't mean you should, but you can.

    Thank you for the great detailed review Autogefühl.
    This will cost over $50k fully loaded in the US and the Golf R will cost $40k fully loaded. I feel like the S3 is way overpriced.
    Which would you recommend?

    For me the biggest change that I'm looking forward to is the 7 speed DSG instead of the current 6 speed DSG in the S3. I hope it brings the rpm down at highways speed a little bit, I always feel it's revving just a little too much.

    Again great review of the also great car!
    I want to ask Thomas or anyone else from Autogefühl
    .
    Why on your reviews of all VAG cars Check Engine it's turned on?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      the engine check light is ALWAYS on in every single vehicle of the Volkswagen corporation brands when the ignition is turned on. This is to show that the light itself does work. As soon as you start the engine for real, the flash disappears. You only have a problem when the check engine light goes on when the engine is running :)
