Welcome back to RBR guys! Now we’ve featured the new genre A Class AMG heavily with the engine tour, 4Matix+ Drift Mode on ice, and the last time on track in Spain. But today is finally the definitive test drive! It’s a car that AMG cars a super sports car in the compact segment, and it is the AMG A45S 4matic+!
So you guys know how the A45 story goes right? It was originally a big tangent for AMG to explore, a company that was better known for fast saloons and Supercars. In 2013 they released the original A45 AMG, a little hatchback with 380 BHP and 475NM feeding a front biased AWD system! It should never have worked, but it was a big hit with customers. Heck it’s car I still own today, I re-bought it recently after missing it so much (you saw the collection video right?) and the reasons behind its success is something we will explore in great depth when I review my old car very soon! But in short, it’s got speed, fun handling, AMG DNA inside and out and a bloody awesome soundtrack!
But it had its limits. Tech is low, understeer exists, gearbox and engine are old school in Turbo response and it’s nothing you’d ever dare call super sports car. Then came the A35 of this new generation, and without being exhaustive : it’s the exact same formula as that previous car even sharing many components, except with less power coming from a non- hand built engine.
SO you will often hear people say or comment that why bother with the much more expensive 45S when the A35 is a damn good car?? Today we humour those people and let’s explore that idea, by turning an A35 into an A45S!
In essence, everything changes. That engine first of all is completely new and will likely form the basis for the future the 4 Cylinder C63 too. It’s a 4 cylinder twin scroll turbo like the engine before it, but shares no parts with it. Instead it’s rotated 180 to allow better cooling via a more aerodynamic structure and 3 stages of cooling. The engine revs to 7200 rather than 6500, and produces a massive 421 BHP in this model, with 500 nm and a sub 4 second 0-60 on the heels of AMG GT, making power to weight exceed many supercars!
So is it a proper super hatch? Is the 60K price tag justified? And what about Chris Harris’ A45S comments?! Today we explore:
- The First A45 AMG 2013 W168
- The AMG A35 4matic
- A35 vs A45S!
- New AMG A45 S Model
- The new M139 Engine
- Torque/Power Curve
- 4 Matic vs 4Matic+ two clutch rear axel
- Rigidity, Suspension, gearbox
- Exterior Design
- Interior Highlights and Voice Control
- AMG Digital driver zone
- AMG Emotion Start - the loud start! Exhaust and revs
- Full Road review
- Conclusion

If there was ever a test that proved that press drives are NOT representative: the A45 S is it!

Stay at home, enjoy an RBR episode every week! 👍🏽
Can't wait
Trent Costigan will be awesome!
Thankyou. Stay safe as well
@@RemoveBeforeRace Now you've done a review of this car, would it be possible to have a review of your 2019 C63 with the OPF problem?
how about investing in a good HD microphone, the one you are using is not doing justice to the motion start, pops and bangs
I've just ordered one - counting down the days to January when I get it. The most expensive car I've ever purchased and it's a hatchback. Totally mad but you only live once!
Congrats!
Hope you are enjoying it
Congrats sir
Well done David 👍
You die once but live everyday (;
people say it is expensive, but it is the best of its class
Rs3 will chop it
Get spanked by an rs3 🤣
No it isnt..RS3
almost fast as a 911 for 4x less the price
@@fzr1000981RS3 😂😂😂
Once again, totally unique, your reviews are brilliant with that editing you do, I'd say it takes some time but worth it, you'll always get that click and like👍
PJ Adamson really appreciate the love man
@@RemoveBeforeRace loving the dragon ball sounds haha

More thorough brilliance... You are AMGs best salesman.....Am gona get a45s soon... Cheers
@@RemoveBeforeRace I like your car A45s amg
The previous gen A45 sounds incredible for a 4 cylinder, love the pops/crackles 🔥
Daniel Sadjadian me too, hence 🤣
I see you every where dude
@@HaultRxst AMG apologist
Hault Rxst Yea it’s getting kinda annoying
I wonder how many Car-Testers are changing there mind after driving the A45s in real life. Ur not the only One!🤨😃🙏🏼
Ingmar Stadelmann not much
Love your editing! How long does it actually take you to do it? A45s is super clean, and well rounded - aggressive, powerful, compact and a true AMG!
Benjamin Sila takes a long time! But I love it
Highly anticipated! Thank you for this amazing video!
Tobias Henreich welcome my bro
bro your definatley my favorite TOP 5 CHANNELS. KEEP IT UP HOMIE! MUCH LOVE FROM SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH MY DUDE!
Thank you for uploading thru this stuff time
I love your videos! You’re so clear and precise, the productions great too. Definitely some of the best car content I’ve seen!
What a review man! Congrats.
I thought the CLA 45s would be more interesting than the A45s but OMG, The A45s still the king of it segment!
Keep it up.
Another Great Video!!!! Love the AMG emotion start feature!!!
This is the first video of yours that I've seen and I'm very impressed great detail and editing, look forward to watching more of your videos and of course I subscribed.
One of my fav reviews of the A45s...Wow! I keep rewatching it.
This is your best informative and edited video yet. I’m very impressed with your editor’s skills!
That Brown Detail Guy editor is me! So thanks 😆🙏🏼
Remove Before Race no way! Brother this is professional high end level work! Amazing 🙌🏽
Love seeing you push it at the track
Mate, Your videos are dope... I end up watching the cars I dont like just because you deliver quality content!!! That editing is dope
Great review. One of the best car reviews I've seen.
Just starting watching your video's, very impressed with how the lay out of the video's are. Would be good to see some classic on the channel. Great work 👌
I really looking forward for the CLA45S review. I almost search CZcams everyday regard to CLA45S
It's also such a beauty in metal, absolutely beautiful! Love it 😍
My dad has been using one of these as a daily driver since October, yet neither of us knew about the AMG Emotion Start feature. Now we use it everyday and it’s absolutely amazing! Thank you!
How do U find the amg performance bucket seats ? Are they confortables ?
I've waited so long for you to make this video. I'm loving my A45 S. Thanks for the awesome review 👍
Damn nice bro u must be doing really well in life to afford that congratulations
@@amirterabi3413 finance, most old a45 drivers own theres now
Trent Costigan congrats enjoy!
@@amirterabi3413 Thanks, I own my own business and worked really hard to get here.
@@worthyRS well done mate
Great work! Love your style of review, greetings from Zürich
I still have a 2018 A45 and my Dad has a new CLA45s. Regarding the engine: i love the new M139! Very aggressive, extremely rev-hungry. Lots of fun really. But I also have to say the M133 is a great engine to it´s own. I love the old-school turbo-feel with lag and a fat mid-range. Both very different, but very very fun to drive.
Your videos are amazing. The editing!!!
One of the most underrated channels on CZcams
The car is amazing and you are amazing and the way you say what the car has is immense pleasure ...thank you bro
Just clicked on this random video And I’ve never seen such a professional video done absolutely amazing 👍👍👍👍
Your videos are sick man, keep it up.
Love the car.
Some great little editing and special effects in this video, really high production quality.
As always mate, well done on a great Vid.
Awesome video, just what I needed 🥰👍🏻
Awesome review as always 👏🏻
this car is a master Peace and a weapon on the road, fantastic review us always keep it up
kayron 18 boss masterpiece
Great vid as always, stay safe bro 👍😎💪

never heard of your channel, but that quality deserves a sub!
keep up the good work!
Greetings from Germany!
One of the best review on youtube
The engine, the gear box, the box sounds so quick.
I love his editing 👌👌
Ive only had my a35 for a month but I've had to put an order in for one of these after driving a mates. A completely different animal
Amazing hatch Dandy review
amazing video as always, makes my day🤩 cla45s next pls👀
Bought my A45S AMG partly based on your video Raz....Love your content ❤👍👌😊
This review is absolutely insane, you do the craziest reviews, I can’t wait till my A45s is here within the upcoming weeks 👌🏾🔥❤️
The thing that I always take from watching car reviews is you find out all the faults with the old one, something you don’t hear about at the time lol
Unique Review Bro.Loved it👌
So much modern, elegant for the interior between the A45 2019 and the New A45S 2020. But i prefer the rear of the older version.
We shall wait to see the arrival of the full fat 1series M (as I think it should be called because they can't use M1 and or 1M) with over 400hp AWD, the 45s is up for some serious bullying.... and just for the record, this guy's work is on another level...
i'm cheesing like a fool while watching this. . . your content is so unique and well put together.
Very good video 👍 Enjoyed watching it.
Thumbs up for the editing my feiend! Piece of art!... the car?... waaaayyyy too expensive for the product and my hard earned money...
Dude great edits. 👍
Joseph-san thanks!!
man...what a beautiful car, and that color? omg...a dream!
Yeah man,,absolutely
Such a dream car!
Will it respond to, "Hey Mercedes - set LOUD exhaust!"??
Mark Chippendale haha if only
I’m collecting mine this Sunday 14th ❤❤❤. Can’t wait long time coming 👍👍👍👍👍
Great review! 👍
Me and my partner placed an order for an A45s Plus a few weeks back and are now just waiting for it to be delivered.
This will be our first AMG and we can't wait for collection day and get the run in period out of the way and to really open it up.
Just hope the collection from the dealership is something special as this our first new car and it's not a cheap one and we want it to be an experience not to be forgotten.Being a Tuber myself and that I will be documenting the collection I'm hoping they will roll out the red carpet 😄
Are the amg performance seats confortable ?
@@emmanuelgirard1656 Yeah man, really comfortable
@@amg4616 thank U for your answer
Wonder how a an exhaust upgrade would make the car sound. When we finally get the CLA 45 here in the states I plan to do a RennTech exhaust and tune just to make up for not being able to get the S. Though, I'm hoping not having the same regs we may get a slightly better sounding car. If you don't "resolve" the exhaust issue by then I'll send you a sound clip. Love your videos by the way.
I have a 2017 a45.. which is fun.. sounds good.. and is fast.. very nice car.. a45s i think with a few mods.. make it pop n crackle.. it would be there.. forget the real sound.. if that new one could sound off like the older one.. what a car.. love it.. and always love remove before race bloggs.. keep up the good work..
Thank you - excellent review. I have this car on order, same colour! Can't wait! The only thing I don't like are the fake exhausts and the rather muted sound track. Hence, I have purchased an Akrapovic exhaust system for it, which should up the anti a bit!
Nice video, you earned a sub!
Finally a unique channel. Auto sub mode.
excellent review
My favorite Channel, greeting from NYC
This car bring a smile to my face whether its the shape, colour or spec.
Your editing is brilliant. You've inspired me...
I like hw u went in detail abt e car now I want this carrr so badlyyyy🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 mercedes really dd a gud job on this one
Very nice Video, love your Animation!
I think with a fixed connection to the front axle and the two clutches to the back wheels, it‘s the other way round. With both clutches being open, 100% of the power goes to the front wheels and with both clutches closed it’s a 50/50 split. That‘s why drift mode is applicated differently compared to the V8 Models.
My dream car, real sleeper
Your editing skill is neat
Awesome Video, and Renntech has Increased the power up to 592 bhp 😁😁😂😂. i love this car. Btw isn't this a hyper hatch ?
Such a amazing car
This channel is so underrated
Quality video as always, could you please tell me if the car is warm when you get the pops and crackles as when I do this from a cold start the engine revs a little higher which I belive is correct but no pops and crackles. Due to the covid lockdown I can't drive it anywhere!!! its killing me only done 250 miles.
Best car to get in this segment right now is the cla 35. Good price compared to others, beautiful looking thing inside and out
You nailed it
these graphics are wavy. so cool
What color is the car you tested? Great review thanks.
Great content, really admire the A45 AMGs for a four cylinder 2 litre motor its awesome, and for most is more than adequate as a daily, but am going to miss the 63 AMGs, and they are great value at present, as is my favourite the E55 AMG.
I love this car 😍😍🤤
excellent car, love it
Fantastic car !
What do you use for all these cool video ffects? You're good!
amazing 4 cylinder can you imagine with the renntech tune Omg almost 600 hp!!!!
Ghost knowing Renntech they’re on it 😆
I think just ecu tune it might go to 500hp range and 0-100 will do smth like 3,3 sec
@Jkinsg92 yeah for sur you know better than renntech
Jkinsg92 yes dude thats why Koennigsegg put a 2.0 3cyl on their new hypercar making 600hp,
Loving this car
With respect, blaring round a wide track on either side of the road at 120mph didn’t seem a lot like most uk roads to me? Great graphics though, and what a car!
Miltek non res transforms the sound. WRC vibes, no joke. Lighter as well. 15mm spacers F/R fill arches nicely
It looks beautiful 😍
That sound siiiick
Ugh I loveeeeee this car. Just bought a GLA 45. Wish it was this.
For all the "special effects" it's a shame we do not get this in 4K, such cool cars.
By a furlong, the most informative and experience-based appraisal of this astonishing car. I have one question: you drove the 'plus' variant. It has the adaptive dampers. The 'basic' version does not and they cannot be specified as an option. Can you say whether being able to put the springs to a comfort setting adds appreciably to the ability of the car to trundle over UK road imperfections without a bone jostling ride ? I am attracted to the simplicity of the basic model but it was a touch firm on imperfect road surfaces for everyday trundling until the fun can start.
nice review
Enjoyed the question of the Bavarian irritant.
Nice 👍🏾 one great presentation 💯❌♟🙌🏾
Love the editing and how informative your vids are. The price tag on the A45S 😭
Zee Shz sadly all new cars outside of Porsche are overpriced
I feel like for most mercedes matte grey just looks the best.
