Gotta love German build quality

And the piano black is just super practical and will not get scratched within 1 months of use 😍😍

*1 day

A disaster compared to the incredible Audi interiors from former times. You clearly see that they try to save money on the engineering and offshore everything to low wage countries. People realize

BMW, Audi, and MB all started lowing interior quality around the same time a little over a decade ago. Audi has always been the worst of the three but it still had a nice tactile feel. These cheap plastics are unacceptable for “luxury” car manufacturers

This is the oldest BS in the car world. Show me one car that's different. Maybe the 1965 Chevy Nova, where the cockpit is made of solid steel in case you smash your head into it in case of an accident...

How the mighty have fallen

I could have sworn this gaming racing wheel had better build quality.

Maybe if they copy BMW and put a superhero movie ad on the screen they can afford to fix this in future models.

Build quality went down in the latest model, I don’t know why… I own the previous S6 2023 and it’s built like a tank. I wanted to upgrade to a new model but after seeing them in person and driving them you can feel the build is worst… so disappointing.

Well, can’t say they’re not taking their company name seriously. You can hear and listen to every panel in this car!

The interiour in the new Audi RS5 is a disaster. Cheap, boring and costsavings. BMW does a much better job.

German luxury cars SUCK! Terrible build quality and constantly breaks down. Repairs cost arm and a leg.

I’m not shocked. In 2019 I got my Model 3 & accepted the build quality would be dodgy, my colleague had an Audi A2 (I think) also 2019 and that was night and day ahead. I sat in a 2026 Mercedes CLA250 and was pretty shocked that the 7 year old Tesla wasn’t all that far off it.

Audi interiors used to be the benchmark of the industry, in fact, the rock solid, above class interior in them was the main reason to buy VAG in general. Ever since dieselgate, the higher ups decided they would make the customers pay the fines by cheaping out on their one usp instead of cutting the responsible managers’ bonuses. Compare a C7 Audi A6 to a C8 or simply put a golf 7 next to an 8 and it’s like night and day.

Germans have not been building their cars for some time now.

It's fake, right? Right? 🏊‍🤦

But teslas ere better right ?

One squeak. Good find.

One squeak ? BTW it's my car after 7000 km

Q5? I’m driving one now . Very good quality.

Warum kaufst du dir auch so nen neumodischen Scheiß

This is a Feature and cost extra

While annoying, I have a question. Do you regularly squish, pull and push random panels without function?

Yes

These automakers will destroy themselves with their workmanship. People won't buy something that doesn't match the price. And China knows it!

Assembled in US

Audi is right. People don't pay for interior quality any longer. It's about hype and technology. Best example is Tesla. Among the cheapest builds but they have good tech and modern marketing.

Audi Q3 (70k€).

Audi*

Mercedes and BMW, too, first time i thought the specific cars were broken or it's a prank, but it's the "state of things". Total joke.

stupid ass test

Great, now do one while driving, to show how it’s in action. Oh sure you won’t, can’t generate bait content with that

This car is made in Mexico and not Germany.

You know Audi was sold to China for their local production?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Audi hat schwer nachgelassen... Der Getränkehalter in der Mittelkonsole ist auch wirklich sehr hässlich und versaut die ganze Mittelkonsole. BMW macht das hundertmal besser.

Squeaky interior is the new sign of luxury.
