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 E-Class

Pros

  • Spacious And Comfortable Cabin
  • Gets A Host Of Smart Features
  • Offered In Both Petrol And Diesel Options

Cons

  • Ex-showroom price of the car is on the higher side compared to segment offerings
  • It is only offered in the long wheelbase version
  • The colour options offered on the E-Class are not exciting

Verdict

The new E-Class debuts with comprehensive changes on exterior styling and design, significant interior updates along with the integration of latest new-generation NTG 6 telematics and of course the MBUX system, which makes it a connected car. Prices of the E-Class top out at ₹ 80.9 lakh (ex-showroom India). The rear has been newly designed and the new split tail light design gives it a fresh appeal.
