When you are searching for a luxury sedan you most likely want something powerful, comfortable, stylish and full of exciting features. It can be difficult to tell if a vehicle has all the feature you require just by looking at it. It can help to take a more in-depth approach, like comparing two similar models. Today we’re going to do just that with the 2017 Mercedes-Benz C 300 and the 2017 Audi A5. Both of these vehicles are luxury sedan options, but they have many differences to discover.
The first major difference between these two vehicles is their performance capabilities. They both have a 2.0-liter I-4 engine, but the C 300 offers more power. It is able to provide 241 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. It is also estimated that the C 300 can reach 60 mph in just 6.3 seconds. The Audi A5 isn’t quite as impressive it only provide 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This is a significant difference worth considering.

Another difference between these two vehicles is their available features. Drivers here in Arizona will appreciate the cooled front seats that are available on the C-Class, but not on the Audi A5. Another helpful feature available on the C-Class is adaptive cruise control. This feature automatically adjusts the vehicle’s speed to maintain a safe distance from the vehicles ahead. It is a very useful feature to have if you do a majority of highway driving. This feature is not available on the Audi A5.
