Battle in Bavaria! BMW’s M135i vs Audi’s RS3

BMW and Audi now find themselves in a strange spot. Audi, the long time king of really fast hatchbacks, find themselves staring down a challenger from their own neighborhood with BMW’s M135i. Even stranger, this time it’s the Audi that’s a more expensive prospect for the potential buyer. Both cars make a similar amount of power, in a similar way, and both are very fast…. But that doesn’t answer the important question of which one is better.

This should be a good one. It doesn’t really matter that the M135i is not actually an M model, because the performance is pretty much on par with it’s only true rival. Though, BMW models have a tendency to sportier than the average Audi, so we’d wager it’ll be a better drive than the RS3.

Also, it can drift and the Audi can’t. That’s got to count for something right? Check out the video below and let us know which you’d chose below.
