Pros Cons of Audi S5

Pros

  • Based on the MLB platform, the A5 is sturdily built
  • The A5 is only available with the sporty variants
  • The RS5 is quite the looker

Cons

  • Low on connected car features
  • The S5 looks simple and very understated
  • The gearbox could have been more responsive

Verdict

It is a niche model, and also given that it will be a direct import - so that price is more attractive than you think. But with BMW assembling the M340i locally, an over 10 lakh price difference between the two in favour of the Bimmer.  But it is good to see Audi getting us many brand shaping and relevant models. And especially a car like the S5 - which arrives at a time when many premium brands are once again showing some love to the sedan space.

Pros Cons of BMW X3

Pros

  • Impressive Design And Styling
  • Comes In Exclusive Brooklyn Grey Metallic Colour
  • Offered In Both Petrol And Diesel Options

Cons

  • Doesn’T Get Ventilated Seats
  • Doesn’T Get Wireless Charger
  • Stiff Ride Quality

Verdict

The BMW X3 stands shoulder-to-shoulder with its competitors, excelling in performance and offering competitive pricing. In certain aspects, it surpasses its rivals, notably being one of the few, alongside the GLC, to provide a diesel variant. For those in the market for a petrol SUV within the Rs. 60 to Rs. 70 lakh range, the X3 is a compelling choice. It boasts a chic design, an impressive array of features and technology, and delivers robust performance and handling. It's undoubtedly a contender worth considering.
