2 Answers
Audi A4 and Audi A5 differ in the following aspects: 1. Body structure: The Audi A4 features a 5-door 5-seat station wagon or 5-door 5-seat crossover station wagon body structure; whereas the Audi A5 comes in 2-door 4-seat hardtop coupe, 5-door 5-seat hatchback, or 2-door 4-seat soft-top convertible configurations. 2. Wheelbase: The Audi A4 has wheelbases of 2825mm and 2817mm; while the Audi A5 offers wheelbases of 2766mm, 2826mm, and 2825mm. Both Audi A4 and Audi A5 employ front-engine front-wheel drive or front-engine all-wheel drive systems, with five-link independent suspension for both front and rear, and electric power steering as the assistance type.
I studied these two models last year. As a young guy who loves speed, the A5's coupe body is really eye-catching, way cooler than the A4's standard sedan shape. It turns heads like crazy on the road. Although the rear seats are a bit cramped, the front seats are awesome with a more aggressive driving feel, and the tires grip the road more firmly. The A4 is much more practical, with enough space for family trips without feeling crowded, and it's significantly cheaper. If you're purely after sportiness and uniqueness, the A5 is definitely the top choice, but don't overlook fuel consumption and maintenance costs—they're similar to the A4's. In the long run, buying an A5 requires considering your budget and practical needs. I drive an A5 on weekends for joyrides—it's super thrilling!
