Pros Cons of Mercedes-AMG E 53

Pros

  • Good looks very handsome
  • The car is tuned for comfort and fun
  • The car is very practical and powerful

Cons

  • At over Rs. 1 crore it is pricey
  • The suspension is a bit on the stiffer side
  • There's a hint of lag at lower revs

Verdict

The E 53 is cheaper than the E63 S and yes, very much better priced in fact, in terms of an AMG. With a price tag of Rs. 1.02 crore, the E53 is a practical car which is oodles of fun to drive and more practical too. It gives you all the creature comforts that you want and all the sideways action you would want on a car like this. The E 53 strikes the right balance then and offers more bang for your buck

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.
