2020 Mercedes-AMG CLA 35 vs Audi S3 vs BMW M235i Gran Coupe // Face-Off

James and Thomas take the new 2020 BMW M235i Gran Coupe and pit it against the 2020 Audi S3 and the 2020 Mercedes-AMG CLA 35. They all have four cylinders, and all have all-wheel drive. But the BMW and CLA are brand new, so is it even a fair fight? The boys explore the cars driving dynamics and what they are like to live with every day. Can the new 2 series gran coupe walk away from the competition? Or does Mercedes and its tech advancements lead the way? Exterior and interior styling comparisons help figure out which one takes it in the looks department, and the back roads do the rest. Watch to see the outcome. SUBSCRIBE!
