- If you’re in the market for a posh, family-friendly saloon, then this is just the video for you!
We’ve got our hands on the best, most luxurious mid-range saloons you can buy in 2023, and we’re about to find out which one is the best for you! Joining us for this video are the BMW 3 Series, Audi S4, Mercedes C-Class, Genesis G70 and the DS9.
Now we know what you’re thinking - the S4 costs loads more than the other cars here, and the DS9 is more of a competitor to the likes of the 5 Series and E-Class. That may be true, but the S4 is still largely similar in style & practicality to the other cars here, and as for the DS, once you add extras to these other cars, the price may be quite similar to the DS. So with that in mind, is it worth paying a bit extra and moving up a class?
Well, it’s time to find out! Mat’s going to put all these cars through a standard carwow review, covering their designs, interior, practicality, what they’re like to drive, and what engines are available. Oh, and of course, he’s going to launch them from 0-60mph!
So what’s your favourite car in this line-up? Let us know in the comments!

You know this will be a great video when you have more than 4 cars you are comparing against. How cool would it be to have a carwow car of the year award where you do a 3-part series showing a range of the top cars you have chosen and then decide who wins the crown after doing a series of tests and reviews for that year. Similar to how top gear do it but in carwow style.

Hyundai Genesis and AE86 left the chat.
They have already announced their car of the year MG4
BMW is writing their victory speech as we speak.
Never mind bmw always wins with Matt 🤣
There is something about the Audi S4 that I think people don't appreciate enough about. I love this B9 generation of the Audi A4, S4, and RS 4.
What I don’t really appreciate about the Audi is that its interior looks like a 2015 launch edition 😅 nowadays it’s not only the engine, but the “brains” a car has. The series 3 comes with the feature to open and drive your car with only your watch and phone, while the Audi suffers to offers a decent sound system…. Go figure
it's too plain. The interior is nice. Also i never appreciated 2.0L engines with a turbo to keep up with the 3.0+ litter engines. The straight 6 the bmw allowed was gas efficient enough and with the proper horsepower and torque to move such heavy vehicles in a sporty way.
See them all the time on the road, can’t find one on the used market. That’s a sign that these cars are GOOD!
Powerful headlights are very important here in the north (Finland) where there might be moose and deer crossing the roads regardless of the season. It would be helpful for viewers to include some kind of test regarding stock lights not only on Carwow but on reviews by other car channels as well (as smaller sized "designer headlights" are seemingly becoming more common)
Fennoscandic car manufacturers Saab and Volvo used to take that safety aspect seriously some time ago.
A nice group test, well done
Yeah, I know what you mean. There are couple of German TH-camrs who dedicated to this and show which lights on the Market are the best. From what I saw and reported from this TH-camrs the Germans dominate the LED market by far. Audi with the Matrix LED, BMW Laser Lights, Mercedes Digital Lights also Volvo with the Thor LEDs and Skoda has also now Matrix LED.
Nobody cares about Finland.
I owned a Toyota before and my new Mercedes C class has much brighter headlights. They are very blinding.
For the standard headlights that is. Probably not a thing you should base your decision on.
Don’t you just slap on a pair of Roolights anyway?
The 3 series has been the benchmark for a very long time, it’s what I would choose as it’s a drivers car that can carry the family with ease and looks good too.
I have owned a BMW 3 series and NEVER AGAIN! I will stay with my S4.
@@GusGus1996 Had Audis, good cars but wouldn’t call them fun, they are just too front end heavy and the four wheel drive system interferes too much.

The face lifted 3 series looks really really good. I also love the g70. Very attractive cars 😊
I purchased an S4 (USA - gas) last year in Tango Red and I love it. Perfect combination of luxury and performance, and not near as common as MBs and BMWs.
Excellent dailies
Good choice.
The Audi is considerably older than the rest of these to be fair to it. I like the look of the new one that’s been spotted testing recently though

Where can we see the new design?
Love the comparison videos! The class up A6 vs E class vs 5 series is due for a comparison video as well Matt 😉
Love to see that
Volvo V90 should also be in that comparison
There's a facelift A6 that will be launching later this year, so I expect they'll wait until after that
@@jordank195 also new 5 series should be out later this year.
Already was compared dozens of time. 5 series Wins. On multiple channels.
Agree. MB is the best plug in hybrid with the immense electric range. Great design too.
The bimmer would be my favorite too,as a 320d without xDrive
Germans are germans hands down but for a korean car to be here amongst the comparison says a lot how far they’ve come from a soccer mom’s car. 👏🏻
Having driven all of these cars (I'm a die hard VW Golf guy) the 3 Series or X3 is just sublime. The handling, transmission, drive, power everything is up their with all the best bits of the Golf but more. Merc and Audi are great luxury cars and are equal in many other areas but the BMW is just a better 'package'
A Golf can't hold a candle to a 3 Series...
@@imkirbo3094 or even a Mercedes lol
@@imkirbo3094 the 7.5 was a very good vehicle. It was a good all rounder and quality was similar to these class of vehicles. Obviously not now with the M8 though. BMW quality has increased recently also so the gap is widening a lot
You're probably right, but I couldn't live with that dashboard.
@@imkirbo3094 ummm…I own a Golf R, and it’s nicer and faster than a 3 series. A much better car in every way.
The fact that the genesis has even in a comparison video with the other three manufacturers is impressive. I would always take the Mercedes. :)

Genesis has more fun to ride than A4 tho.
@Fire Heart Thats when having a mass market brand under the same corporate umbrella comes in handy. They have Hyundai and Kia bringing in revenues to fund the Genesis. Same story with Toyota/Lexus and Ford/Lincoln.
@@sweatyalpaca You're right about that, but with the Hyundai N vehicles it's pretty plain to see that Hyundai has changed their philosophy a bit. They're no longer interested in only being the reliable budget option, they're trying to outgo and surpass competition for the same price.
It's a shame they don't have the fun version of the G70 in the UK, the car is much better suited to a 3.3l twin turbo V6
@@superdoesings2416 yall dont have the V6 twin Turbo model? Bruh, that friggn sucks. It looks like yall do get the full digital dash tho, but I'll take the V6 turbo over having a digital dash hands down. This car with the V6 is absolutely nuts. Horrific gas mileage, but a blast to drive.
Thanks Matt, this video has helped me a lot in terms of making a decision. I’ve been looking at the 330e M sport X Drive Touring for my next company car.
i personally own an audi a4 b9 2016 model ,nothing fancy as an s4 or something, but what a car it is! its everything i wanted it to be, sporty , comfortable, really practical all at once, 2.0 TDI 190ps quattro model, u can feel the quattro thing like a train on rails in the corners ,and the interior feels so much reasonable with the REAL gear selector and how the screen panels are angled to the user , the seat position , the mmi controls , it just feels so right and precise measured to the users comfort..
I’ve got a B9 A4 Sport 1.4 with 150hp. It feels like a nice car.
yep that's funny - the s4 vs the base models of the rest and then to go further, the genesis without awd but 0-60 on an oil slicked road...jeez
Good review guys!
Always enjoy your reviews and good to see some everyday cars vs. the $100k plus type cars which have been reviewed recently.
Keep up the great work 🥳
Can’t say one is best… just comes down to brand preference at this point
you got it exactly
@@Eric-qi9us Eric, i belive all the cars are good equally.
Or handling, power, and build quality as mentioned in the review.
@@purwantiallan5089sadly, no, there's still some trash out there
@@ezrapardede1921 Reference was to these 3.
It’s unfortunate you don’t have access to the best spec of the Genesis in the UK.
I’m in Canada and bought a 2022 3.3 Litre, twin turbo G70 Sport AWD last year. It’s a great driving car, which is as much fun to drive as my Mercedes 1993 600SL. Granted, my Mercedes is an older car but it’s in mint condition and a great car to drive. The point is, the Genesis with the right spec is a really great car.
Also, the collision control features you complained about being too sensitive are all adjustable. I drive pretty aggressively and never have a problem with the nannies in the car.
All 3 are top notch, owned all 3 and gotta say to me it boils down to what you need it for, and how well assembled version you find... cause the roads I drive on are Horrible my back thanked me for sticking with c class lol ( non hybird)
3 series never disappoints

Audi A4 also never disappoint.
It's getting worse and less involving to drive. And no manual? I'm definitely disappointed. At least the front grill is still tolerable.
@@mediocreman2 you want to shift an 150hp 318i?
@@mediocreman2 Well it’s a family saloon so naturally it will be developed for more comfort sooner or later 😢At least we still got M340 which are still good to drive
Very interesting this test. What it does show is that the extra you pay for the German cars are clearly worth it. They just know how to do it well. The suspension, drive train and efficiency isn't matched by other brands like Genesis and DS. It's clear that all the German complexity is there for a reason. To make it better.
Audi, Merc and BMW cars are not reliable in the long run lease only
And still Toyota/Lexus and Honda are better then zhe Germans 😉
@@lutomson3496 who cares nowadays, when most people are getting a new car every 2 to 5 years.
Be serious the Lexus ES or even a Toyota Camry are gonna wipe the floor with these things when it comes to efficiency, drive train and suspension. Toyota camry if you dont care about badges, Lexus if you do but want a decent car, and then just go german if "all" you care about is badge. These german cars are absolute mine fields, the major problem with them is, you could be lucky and never have anything go wrong, but they are not that reliable, so if something goes wrong will it be cheap? no! Take the c class plugin hybrid, that used to have the hatch for the electric charge point on the bumper. If you drove off with it plugged in by accident and knocked the hatch off, its a 1900 sterling parts bill alone. You might have to replace the whole blooming bumper.
Suspensions? Citroen?
My full black 3 series arrived 2 weeks ago and I love it!
Mat thank you so much for this insane video!
That chrome strip on the bonnet of the DS9 is a nod to the strip on the bonnet of the real Citroen DS, you know, the original work of genius. Come to that a comparison between the DS9 and a DS21 Pallas would make interesting viewing.
I drove a Genesis G70 for a week last year. The collision detection system is far too sensitive and on a few occasions it slammed on the brakes, pulled in the seatbelts and nearly frightened the life out of me and my front seat passenger. I liked the car though.
I think Tiger Woods appreciated that sensitivity.
That's what it's supposed to do genius :/, its a safety feature not a convenience feature.
@@giorgio2506 Tiger woods veered off the road
You can adjust the setting to delay the response.
Maybe you are driving like a bell end
Bought a BMW 320e touring last year, best thing i ever driven, amazing vehicle, super happy
bought an 330e still waiting on delivery, verry excited xp
great review. You mention in this video company car drivers. It would be good to have a review on the best company cars for tax BIK savings mid size luxury cars, E Class, 5 Series, Audi AG plus any other. Thanks
This is a great, informative comparison. I really relied on videos like this when buying my current car.
What are you getting?
@@septopus3516 I got an A4 Avant.
Bimmer always on top W 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪👑👑👑
Super, SUPER quiet car with the noise reduction windows. Got one because of that quietness.
I would always choose a 3 Series, and I'm definitely looking into getting the LCI model. I want this car.
can never go wrong with the G chasis bmw's. Probably the best sport sedans on the road
Would be great to see a comparison between the c class, a4, 3 series and their bigger brothers e class, a6 and 5 series. Just to see if it would be worth getting the bigger Cars or just get the mid sized one but with a better Engine or more equipment
Definitely a good idea
5 series, E class and A6 are the mid sized ones.
the 3 series design wise feels like the one with the fewest compromises
The power train options are interesting. In the US, most of these will specd as awd. It's basically default.
Yeah, most american drivers simply wont survive without AWD...
In the US/Canada, they're not spec'd with a sub 250bhp engine either.
@Addingup that's not true. They're all 250ish. The bmw will get mid 30s highway. Not sure about the other two.
@@mitchellsteindler
Yup. Same with quite a few other brands. Our (US) least powerful setups start at 240-250 HP, pretty much always from some turbo 2.0L I4. We rarely get wagons, manuals, or diesels too.
For Europe, all the extra taxes, shorter trips, more expensive gas, and often no place to put the foot down would possibly make me consider a sub-200 hp car though.
Great car Reviews, we like his voice, reminds us of back in the day, pure review with details on each vehicle. keep bringing it! ;-)
Love the comparison videos!
Completely agree with your verdict, you are so good at your job. Well done mat!!

Range Rover vs Ford Focus RS 2013??
Wow, Europeans got the shaft on the G70 engine options. The only way to truly appreciate this car is with AWD and the 3.3L twin turbo engine. And Mat, you nailed it on the back seats, they're pretty much small children only on the G70.
the RWD is better the AWD is heavier and slower
@@ilyarepin7750 While it is heavier, it's also quicker to 60mph, especially once tuned. Also, AWD is the only way you're getting around in the snow where I live.
Great vid Matt as always, the bimmer needs a good washdown 🤣
Thank you MAT for this usefull test. I guess it could be a nice basis to help a Family to choose her next car. In addition they could order the break and ot the sedan for a very small amount of money. The A4 or S4 AVANT or sportback. The BMW Touring . I hesitate between the S4 (but it is a DIESEL) and The BMW 320 . According to the laws in France i will ordered a BMW Touring with the Xdrive control. In France, severe limitation has started for old cars and especially DIESEL. Strating first january 2023, the limitation will became more and more severe each year. It is not realistic. We are poor, we cannot buy the EV car we need.
A very comprehensive comparison video. Good to see less of the 'monkey business' in other older comparison videos. Always enjoy a genuine and objective view of the cars at hand. Keep up the good work!👍
Audi s4 for me (not because of the launch).
Its just practical.
Not a huge car neither small, not sporty but enough to have fun sometimes, not want to be luxurious but its elegant and nice looking from inside and outside.

Not sporty? xd Im having hella fun in an A4 man, an S4 is def massive step up. Agree with everything else, they are very elegant and interior is just right!
The G70 won for me. In America we get a 365HP version that really ups the sportiness. Pair that with the 3 year concierge warranty (they’ll pick it up from my house and leave a loaner) and the 5 year powertrain warranty and you have an awesome package!
Any dealer tends to offer such service and so will head office if your car has an issue.
Isn't that just the Kia Stinger engine?
@@TheIceMurder2if it is that's even better....the Stinger is getting rep like mustang as a powerful car for street racing.
@@sigifredoospina7085I really need one but I need to save money wish me luck yall!
The reason why the DS is 'overdone' is because Citroen has always been a marque of doing this unusual and or very high tech. DS being their luxury segment and going all out makes sense.
A4 😎 Know both pre-facelift and facelift car on my own and have to say it’s brillant. In right configuration looks posh and sporty, assembly and materials quality is best in class (I have 3 series g21 in family so comparison is direct) and with 2.0 tfsi 204 KM consumes adorably little fuel (average 7.5 / 100 km). Highly recommend this car, despite its 8th year on the market it’s still strong and appealing in class 😎
A4 and Genesis?
@@purwantiallan5089 he said he has a bmw 3 series and a genesis also in this family so yes he does a direct comparison between the 3

Don't get me wrong I would never ever consider buying a a big French saloon but there's always something about them that makes my heart melt. If I were to buy a car purely based on first hand emotion I'd get the DS9 but unfortunately purchases have to be made using your brain and in that case I'd probably go for the Merc

G70 has far impressive than A4 tho.
Yeh in the EU we have power regulations unfortunately and some cars don't have the same trims. For example we cannot get the Hyundai Elantra N here in the EU. Instead we got an i30N which is no where near as fun
Nobody is picking a genesis over the Germans unless it's because of the price or because they want to be different.
@@mediocreman2 Genesis usually claws back a lot of ground on price, but their price advantage doesn't apply in Europe since it's the German's home ground, which I'm sure is related to taxes on imports vs domestic (EU). Over here in Australia the G70 is about 20% less than the equivalent German, which is a lot of $$.
I like the idea of having one car in a different price class, but i think it would be more beneficial to include a car from the class below. For example with this lineup throw in the Mazda 3 sedan
I just mentioned the vw golf and mazda speed which i think was a mazda 3. Those cars had great steering and zip.
I dont know if when you compare cars, consider the type of tyres they have equipped. Tyres profile and type makes huge difference in terms of stability, grip, confort and noise.
The genesis side profile is so similar to an alfa guilia, especially in that red
Really miss these comparison videos 😸
I think not using gear selector like those indicator button switch is good, because if by mistake people will forget and try to use it as indicators especially those coming from old cars.
Excellent comparison Mat!
The previous carwow test featuring mid-sized posh saloons was also won by the 3 series. Is it that good?
21:02 Please continue with your German impersonations, I love it! 😂

I like how you drove through a bunch of mud first before starting the video.
That 3 series is incredible, these BMW facelifts are fantastic. Mercedes used to be my favourite german, but BMW has absolutely wrecked them the last few years (except for the 7 series)
terrible infotainment, questionable grill design, but yeah they "absolutely wrecked" mercedes 🤨
Mercedes has a better infortainment, better looks and feels more luxurious
@Arq Gupta mercedes is about luxury and used to be about reliability as BMW is about Sport like feeling except 7 series I think biggest mistake of BMW was that they stopped 6 series it was ultimate combination of luxury and Sport but oh well the gave us wannabe 8 series as for Merc for hell sake give us at least 50% of old reliability of your old cars 2010 and below ones not mentioning 1990s ones
@@arqgupta264i agree
@@arqgupta264did u not watch carwow videos and came straight here to comment? Mercedes has significantly less quality for their interior. Carwow and alot other TH-camrs confirm this
Can we get such comparisons for all classes of cars. From city cars all the way down to luxury ones.
On the count down for my m340d to arrive! All three cars seem great buys but the BMW fun wins it for me .
Nice informative car test comparison, thanks Mat. Agreed, the Beemer is the best driver's car.
Interestingly, I drove the facelifted 320d last night for the first time and this video comes up. It’s definitely a great car and the one I’d go for. However, between the a4 and the c class, I firmly believe the A4 is a better car overall than the new c class.
In what way? I have a pre facelift A4 B9 and would consider this generation of C Class perhaps in a few years, or maybe a GLC. Why do you feel as if the C Class is worse?
@@akj2387 Mercedes quality isn’t anywhere near Audi. Audi had the best quality in the industry when the B9 was developed, BMW since the G11 has redesigned models with what I would now say is industry leading at the same time as VAG initiated cost cutting. Therefore, I would choose the A4 or 3 series if you prefer the car. Mercedes isn’t selling a top quality product and hasn’t done for years now, every car is littered with cheap plastics and inferior materials all around.
@@akj2387 material and build quality, you can feel that the c class is cheaper and probably cutting costs, when you grab the door handle, when you close the door, padding on the dash and elsewhere. Infotainment is fine but I still prefer the audi’s as well as the digital cockpit. Sound system (base) is by far the worst I’ve heard in any new car, a base sound system in a golf is way better. Fuel economy for a rwd car is the same as audi quattros with the equivalent 2 litre diesel and there’s less room in the back. I would rather have the previous gen c class than this one
Oh damn, I chose my A4 over a C Class since I test drove a C Class (not this one, the gen before that) and preferred the A4 over it, the C Class just didn't feel as posh or well built. Imo the A4 had the beter infotainment system, better build quality and more space. The C Class just didn't feel special, the interior was all shiny but didn't have the quality feel of the Audi. Thought it would've been better for the latest generation. I love the dash/ambient lighting though in the new C Class.
I was buying a slightly used car so it wasn't a factory order meaning I couldn't configure it myself. The C Class I saw didn't even have rear folding seats, I mean I can't say much since my A4 doesn't have rear seatback pockets, or cupholders, but still.
@@akj2387 that is part of the storage pack on most Audi’s. It’s £100 I believe. The only thing Mercedes are good for is ambient lighting, Audi don’t give it on any model and it’s an expensive option. At least the A4/A5 have some cool lighting with the cupholders as standard though as the A6 is dire in comparison. The 5 series has coloured lighting as standard though.
Ok, Matt, given the verdict the 3 series is the best ICE car in this segment size, how would it rate versus the current best EV in this size?
Truly one of the moment of all time
All I'd ask for in my '20 m340i to make it the absolute perfect daily for me:
-make it a wagon (US here, stuck with the sedan)
-replace the electronic e-brake button with a proper handle
-add the M xdrive functionality from its bigger brother (AWD to RWD with a press of a button)
And for a little extra touch that I could do myself- high flow cat downpipes, real exhaust tips and perhaps a mild tune/piggyback. As well as an extra set of wheels with proper winter tires on them for easy swaps once the cold and snowy times come.
Literally nothing else comes to my mind on how to improve it for daily needs. Well, perhaps some proper steering feel/feedback, but that'd be way too much to ask for from BMW these days lol.
DS9 is in a level over its rivals, i think you can add a Giulia, XE, S60 or IS for example
Yep
First time I've heard of DS. 🥴
Can you do the video but with the hybrid 3 series and C class?
Love the outside of the DS. The interior gives me mixed feelings... Still, wouldn't mind a DS9
I’m not looking for a 4 door saloon yet I find this very entertaining 😂
Audi!❤
Audi too for me. 👍
I prefer if Matt said the actual HP values as opposed to "this much horsepower". Great comparison thou, where I stay, these are expensive 😅
Love the DS, a saloon car should be comfortable and roomy
Hyundai are now serious Merc, BMW, & Audi competition? 💀

They aren't. Citroen isn't either. If I had to guess, I would say that carwow gets some cash under the table to feature and win some challenges from hyundai and citroen. I've never met a single person that's driven the same korean or french car for more than a couple of years that they love their car or that they would purchase one again. Maybe the occasional renault diesel but that's about it.
