NEW Audi RS4 Avant 2018 - First Drive
The new 2018 Audi RS4 Avant is here! I head to southern Spain to test drive the new RS4 and find out what it's like to drive on some awesome mountain roads. I only had a few hours with the new RS4 so i opted for more of a review style video to give you a flavour of the car - hopefully we can spend more time with the 2018 RS4 next year and take it on an adventurous road trip!
Here is a little more info on the new Audi RS4 from the press release:
From 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 4.1 seconds, RS sport suspension and Audi drive select as standard
The V6 biturbo develops 331 kW (450 hp) in the new Audi RS 4 Avant. Its peak torque of 600 Nm (442.5 lb-ft) - 170 Nm (125.4 lb-ft) more than the previous model - is available across a broad engine speed range from 1,900 to 5,000 rpm. It is key to how the Audi RS 4 is able to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 4.1 seconds. The top speed is 250 km/h (155.3 mph). With the optional RS dynamic package, the top speed increases to 280 km/h (174.0 mph).
The power of the 2.9 TFSI biturbo is supplied to the permanent all-wheel drive via a sportily configured eight-speed tiptronic with optimized gear changing. Audi also offers an optional rear sport differential. Average fuel consumption is 8.8 liters per 100 kilometers (26.7 US mpg) (199 grams of CO2 per kilometer [320.3 g/mi]). That is an efficiency gain of 17 percent over the previous model. The new Audi RS 4 Avant weighs 1,790 kilograms (3,946.3 lb) 80 kilograms (176.4 lb) less than previously.
The standard-fit RS sport suspension sets the Audi RS 4 Avant another seven millimeters (0.3 in) lower than the S4 basic model with sport suspension. By way of equipment options, there are RS sport suspension plus with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC), ceramic brakes and RS-specific dynamic steering. Drivers can define their own individual personal driving experience using the standard dynamic handling system Audi drive select.

The vocabulary, the editing, the shots, the clarity of sound, “the attention to detail” is what makes your videos perfect and different from everyone else!
He has a higher production quality than Shmee
Thanks buddy - i appreciate the appreciation!
instablaster...
For over 2 decades i have followed top gear,remembering Clarkson review on the red Rs 4 way back then. Like the new Rs. James you are literally light years ahead. Bravo. ..
That green is amazing I love how when the sun highlights the curves it goes from a that darkish green to almost an emerald green (or something close to that)
Much better than the overhyped nandos grey
AUDI BRING THE RS AVANTS TO AMERICA. RS3 and RS4 Avants are two of my favorite cars and I’d pick one up in an instant if they were available.
One of, if not your best video to date - you nailed it 🔨 🤩 Your editing skills are out of this world!
it seems that I see a comment like this on every video and its 110% true, nails it more and more each time
Killed it as always, I'm not normally a fan of car reviews, I often find them too lengthy but your reviews always have me hooked.
You're absolutely killing it James! Can't tell you how much I love your videos and your lifestyle! I dream one day I could be like you :)
Couldn't agree more!
You need wealthy parents as a foundation.
Martin Buchanan That alone is not enough. You also need education, motivation and diligence. Success is often a multigenerational thing. Maybe we won't achieve such life standart, but we should at least try our hardest so our children have a better future than ourselves.
The production on this video is next level
the lengths you go to to get these shots are noticed and appreciated
Damn James you are really nailing these videos. WTF is going this channel, much respect from Albania mate !
Ha ha thanks so much bro
Yeah this is like proper car review. This is prime time Tv quaility content!
This car with those wheels and that color = perfection!
Yet another superb video James! The presentation and quality of your videos keeps me glued and looking forward to the next one every time.
I really have no idea why anyone would put a dislike for this video... madness!!
I'll forever say this, out of all KZheadrs whose video's I have watched, the "attention to detail" on your's has to be the best. Your work never seem to disappoint! Keep up the good work.
Just the intro puts such a massive smile on my face as like I'm driving :) And great drone shots I gotta say! This video shows why James is the best car KZheadr!
The ending scene with the sunset was AWESOME.
For a road car that extra torque is perfect , makes it more drivable and not changing gear all the time. Again James smashing the content out of the park
MotorSport & Dream Cars who needs a road car? I want that torque for my space car
Mr JWW casually the first guy to drive the RS4, loving it m8 !
wtfdididolastnight Same ❤
Love that car colour combo. Sadly never likely to experience it in the flesh so thank you James for a quality insight to behind the wheel. Keep up the high quality content. Can’t stop watching at the mo👍🏼
Not an Audi fan, but really enjoy watching James changing gear up and down just because in gorgeous Spain.
Audi has made stationwagons relevant again
That color!!! 😍😍😍😍 I lack words! Once again, incredible video James! You are truly an editing magician, way ahead of the game...
This is what i call a kickass video!
BRAVO JAMES!!!!!! every video just improves on the last one ten fold!!!! you're doing an amazing job man!!! best wishes!!!
I love the effort put into the description, I very much enjoyed reading it!
I love the explanation and honesty of this dude. Bravo!!
Don't tell Shmee but your content, camera work, and delivery is 150 times better.
I like already and not watched the video yet, also you just know production quality is going to be epic!
Your videos are amazing they are so well edited I love watching them and this rs4 in that green looks so good ! I would never have thought of having a green car but this looks brilliant.
Superb videos as always James!!
Kickass video as always Mr. J
The videos keep on getting better and better. Inspiring me to make more. Love it James. Side note, I wish they'd release a RS4 sedan again.
I'm really lucky that I have found your channel James. The content in this channel is on a whole new level. Thanks for the videos mate and keep it coming. Cheers!
An estate (avant) that is prettier than a certain hyper car. Lovely intro by the way James. 👍🏽👍🏽
I'm guessing that certain hypercar is a McLaren Senna?
beautiful video and editing! Always a pleasure even if i'm not real excited about the rs4 in particular
Some of the cinematics in the video, just wow, you absolutely took full advantage of the setting of the beautiful mountains and got some incredible shots, you need a TV show my dude
Great job! This whole video and review was fantastic. Loved the car, loved the production quality and LOVE that Sonoma Green colour on that - as rarely as I like green on cars, this is definitely one of those times I'd option that, as well.
Man, I love your channel, this is insane, the quality, the editing, everything... HUGE congratulations!
Every video just gets better and better... how is that even possible? Awesome video as always mate! I hope this channel blows up and gets the recognition it deserves. Much love from another man named James ;)
It amazes me just how good these videos are, head and shoulders above everyone else even TV shows.
Was very critical of one of your other videos, however I've got to give it to you on this one - this is a good quality review!
James providing us with some of the best, if not THE best , content out there! Keep up the great work, amazing as always!
Fabulous review James , fantastic car , and what a colour! I love the way you get the review across to camera, you are a natural. Keep it awesome 👏
Back after a long time... Amazing video as always jww... Beautiful
Definitely the best looking rs4 ever, that front end is magnificent and that sonoma green is just simply stunning!
Your in-depth lifestyle videos are surreal and amazing which inspire me to continue chasing my dreams and work hard.
Awesome to hear thanks buddy!
Great stuff as always James, and you’re right about the color, looks fantastic!
Excellent as always James... Love the intro-ending song!
That green !! Never thought i would say this, but it looks super cool !! Amazing video, as usual.
The editing is fabulously done, the drive to... only thing I missed was a revieuw from the rear seats and what not. Great video
Great info in this one James. Nice to hear that Audi continue to push the boundaries and nail it with the design and tech.I am so with you at 10:30 with your comment on looking back at your car when you've parked it. I always say that if you don't look back at your car when you walk away from it, then you've bought the wrong car!
Top work James, one of your best yet! Keep up the great quality, it's leagues apart.
One of the best automotive KZhead channels right now!!! Keep up the great work mate!!!
Great video James, really well put and most importantly it’s put in an interesting way. Keep it up.
Amazing content as always James! Love that color
Another great video James! can really see the progression in editing from the earlier speciale days, Top lad !
Great quality video as always... well done squire
Great car, even greater review. Amazing content👌. Keep delivering the best car videos on KZhead.
James, you continue to raise the benchmark! That car looks killer in that green, sounds nice too. cheers
Brilliant video as always! More of POV!!
Thanks for the history lesson first off. I personally love the colour & that cockpit & interior. I'd have to drive one first &compare that to the B8 (still love that engine ). Great review great drive &great channel.
Top notch work as always James!
Great review James, stunning colour that!
Wow! Realy Love the colour, the car und the hole Video! Thank you...
there are videos that are good and have good quality, then there are amazing videos with sublime quality and then there is MrJWW who somehow just keeps comming with these ultra sublime super amazing crazy good videos. Thank you so much James and keep it comming
Pleasure as always
Takes me back to the old B5 RS4. I absolutely love the new 2.9 V6! Such a potent sound
I love the old school rumble of the 4.2 V8, BUT.. They did a great job on the revamps! Great review as always
Looks like a great car. That colour is insane! Another awesome review man.
That digital cluster is brilliant! Great video MrJWW!!
Great video as always James! Can't wait for more.
Absolutely stunning car! Wish Audi would at least offer the S4 Avant in the US. Perfect mix of everything for a daily driver.
Personally, I love that this channel has been 'Audi heavy', long may it continue! Thanks James!
What a fantastic entertaining video and review. You seem to be miles ahead of every other automotive you tuber, consistently producing high quality, entertaining content with a real passion for every car you get into. Well done James.
Thank you so much, I appreciate the appreciation 😊🙏🏻
Another brilliant video James!
Your videos are the best in business. Also , you are living the life man. 👍
Great review again James, awesome editing as well.
You always amaze me with the editing 😍
so close to 300k. your videos are awesome at the moment your editing skills are soo good.
Has there been better synergy between the wonderful backdrop of rolling southern Spanish mountains & the intro/outro music, by MrJWW? I don't think so. You continue to elevate your game, mate!
AGREED 100%
what was the intro song?
What a mega incredible video!!! It looks awesome in that spec oh yes.
Excellent video as usual with all the small details and snapshots that makes it great. Funny thing I am driving the same B8 generation Audi A4 Avant in a more humble 2.0 TDI version and I have to admit that it's doing the job done quite brilliantly. Cruising on French highways and secondary roads is rather enjoyable than boring as it was the case previously with B7 generation. And that's coming from a die hard BMW enthousiast. Keep coming the awesome content James. Cheers from France!
Congratulations on the new logo As always your review is brilliant👌
How are these so GOOD. Your killing it
Merry Christmas James, I hope you're enjoying the holidays and these next two weeks of video are great holiday fun. (Mike in Ohio)
That end time lapse tho 😍
I absolutely adore that beautiful shade of green. I also have a soft spot for wagons. Thanks.
Once again a brilliant video
Have to agree, got to be one of your best videos, JWW is like a fine wine, he just keeps getting better.
Great work James!
Great video. That RS4 does look good. Keep up the good work.
Awesome video James!
Quality of the video is on another level 👏🏻
Cracking video pal. Got pretty bored of many of the car KZheadrs but you are always great.
Every day, Every Video, Every time Sensational. It's just a matter of time we see James on the Grand Tour with Clarkson and Hammond!
Definately agree with you on the evolution of the rs4! When it comes to looks, audi has always moved in the right direction
Amazing KZheadr been subbed since your early days it’s funny how you have come along and make other youtubers look amateur who have been trying a lot longer I can see a lot of companies approaching you to review their cars.amazing car I just wish they would have made the shell/arches wider to distinguish the rs brand against a non rs a4
Great Video James!!
Beautiful review.
The new logo looks so COOL. Also love the video as always.
Loving the Audi content! The quality of this video is crazy good as always.
Thanks, there has been a lot of Audi content recently but 🤷🏻♂️ it’s been cool stuff!
Mr JWW After owning 11 Volkswagens i'm going to buy Audi next year. The interior of the new Audi generation is out of this world!
