Audi RS 3 2018 POV review with jump | Test Drives

Join me as I take the Audi RS 3 for a spin from my own view! In this POV video, I'll explore every last one of the 400 horsepower the wonderful five-cylinder engine makes, test balance of the chassis, and go beyond the limits of the Quattro four-wheel drive system. Because four driven wheels can't do much when they're in the air...

See our twin test of the Audi RS 3 and Mercedes-AMG A45 here –

We hope you all enjoy the new POV review! From now on, these POV videos will be taking the place of the 360 videos attached to our full reviews.

But don't despair 360 camera fans - it'll still be getting some extra mileage under its belt. From now on, the 360 will be positioned inside the car while parked so you can have a nosey around every new model's interior. Subscribers will receive notifications when the POV vids go live, but not the new 360 format.

+carwow Please release more clips like this!!!
I prefer high-quality POV videos such as this one any time over a 360* video!
360 is a nice gimmick, but the overall quality is not that great and it's kind of inconvenient to watch.
I usually watch all your reviews on my Mac, and don't feel like moving to my smartphone's tiny screen for a 360* video to enjoy the perks of that.

I love that 5-cyl noise. Sounds like a baby V10

Different sort of POV I'm used to

[manny]

The car was starting to show its age with the interior with the pop up display, but as soon as they added that virtual cockpit, it looks amazing and modern again!

[michaelbanks]

i love the enthusiasm in all Matt's videos! It always looks like he's genuinely enjoyed every review. Keep up the great work!!!

[longtailgt]

LOVED IT!! Please do more of these. Way better than the 360° passenger ride videos.

Great video for a beast of a car. I've driven an RS3 once, and it was the best 5 minutes of My driving life!!

[ramy]

The POV vids ate better than the 360° vids, because you can see the drivers perspective to look if the car is not too big for you as a Driver.

My goal is to own this exact car by the end of 2018!

[Stephenvdolder]

I think you have to do that more often. You know.. the POV thing. I really like the idea

[Parrot]

That was amazing! Loved how the speed display got up to 125 mph!

[davidhayes]

It does make the Golf R (and equivalent cars) look seriously good value. It isn't really just a hot hatch and that is the problem with the label hot hatch.

[brooke]

Looks like a really great car to drive! Love the seats and steering wheel.

[OscarLeeMX]

The 360 videos were good but YouTube's compression made it terrible. If only you guys could upload in 8K, maybe it would have been better. This is great though!

[dduplis]

Matt you're an absolute hooligan and I love it!!!

[kakadots]

POV? Now where have I seen that before 😏

[dubaidriver]

If you did the jump in a Volvo all airbags would have deployed :P

[carlosmiguel]

Yeah automatic clutches are the future and you can't compete with that speed. But let me tell you, after i have drove the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio with 510bhp with a MANUAL gearbox omg....it's such a mechanical feeling of connection between you and the car. It's like you're really commanding those 510bhp, like you're in total control. I drove the automatic later on, yeah it's insane fast but it didn't gave me near the experience that the manual one did. It was just crazy. My opinion is, in these kind of powerful cars, if you value the feeling of connection between you and the car, go for the manual, you might not be as fast but the experience it's so much better!!!!
