Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will feel a little more squished in the Audi A5 than in the BMW 430, due to the Audi A5's smaller rear head- and legroom. Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Audi A5, drivers may find the BMW 430 a little roomier and somewhat more comfortable.

Convenience
The BMW 430 requires fewer visits to the gas station than the Audi A5, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Audi A5 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the BMW 430.

Dimensions
The Audi A5 is about the same width as the BMW 430. When looking at overall length, the Audi A5 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the BMW 430.

Handling
The Audi A5 has about the same turning radius as the BMW 430, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, it's basically a tie between the Audi A5 and the BMW 430.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the Audi A5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the BMW 430.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Audi A5 and the BMW 430.
