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 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Pros

  • Stunning Looks & Design
  • High On Features And Tech
  • Offered In Both Petrol And Diesel Options

Cons

  • Petrol Engine Feels Just About Adequate
  • Second-Row Not Good For 3 Occupants
  • Gets Faux Leather Seats Instead Of Real Leather

Verdict

The cabin of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is more spacious. On the inside you certainly get a sense of the 'Baby S' tag, perhaps more than the outside, because of a superior material quality and design layout. The sense of luxury that you get is more heightened. The C-Class isn't still the best drivers' car - the BMW 3 Series has still got that covered. But in terms of style, space, luxury and comfort, the new C-Class is compelling and pushes the envelope far.
