Hamburger Hypersonic March 15, 2020 Share March 15, 2020 I am rather disturbed by the poor review on S60. Guess I need to find out more for myself. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can feel the different because the original rim is smaller and the tire is thicker therefore more comfy over hump and lower road noise. wow must have cost a bomb!!

Its always been merc vs bmw vs audi right! looks like volvos doing it right! The cruise control and pilot mode are actually very usable and fun haha. But yeah, the audi just seems more suitable for spirited driving though the volvo does have the century sprint a little better Yeh, you should be comparing A4 with likes of the G20 320i but that's a total different price category. The beemer is selling at $60k more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I test drove the C200 (1.5 Turbo 180 hp) and already find acceleration lacking. A lot of (smooth) rev to 3000 or 4000 rpm but car not really picking up speed.

joshua182 1st Gear March 16, 2020 Share March 16, 2020 Actually I have both the B9 A4 and a 2017 Swedish made S90! so coming from experience, while both are great cars, both are far from perfect, both obviously overpriced in Singapore but still a value proposition from the usual BM and MCD! Personally i like bhp and nice low end torque so 250bhp s90 and 188bhp a4 for me! MCD better interior and mbux is amazing! BMW rwd and super duper cool badge!

Dice 3rd Gear March 16, 2020 Share March 16, 2020 On 3/14/2020 at 10:47 PM, Htancl said: Between a Volvo S60 and the A4. One fully loaded with safety feature, versus a bare metal stripped of any safety features, and not even a memory seat, but carries the German badge. Which will you chose? Audi A4. Not just because of badge but day to day living with actual buttons and direct access to aircon setting is important. Volvo all very swee but to adjust aircon have to jump thru many steps. Build quality of Audi is very good IMO. I don’t find my A4 bare, I find it pretty well spec but horses for courses so features that works for me may not be so for others. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Route88 2nd Gear March 18, 2020 Share March 18, 2020 On 3/15/2020 at 10:30 AM, Midorima said: Is it T4 momentum? If so I don’t even think it has a reverse cam and you need to add it? I’ve test driven the S60 and A4. S60’s drive pales in comparison. FC is not good. The infotainment can be hard to use. For eg, to off the stop start you need to press a few times before reaching the option. True that it has adaptive cruise control, lane keep etc. But how often do you use it vs normal driving? Also, I felt that the steering was light and feedback wasn’t great. Those additional features r great but the most impt in the end is the comfort, drive, and ease of use on a daily basis. If you have test driven both then you should be able to feel the difference. By the way the new A4 coming will be tuned down to 150bhp. Price might be close but power less. Are you sure new A4 will be detune ? Not much differ frm B9 spec i was told, same 188bhp ,just have electric mild hydbrid motor ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
