Let's first discuss the way these two beasts look. A lot of drivers are drawn to
Challenger's classic retro
styling that still looks great 50 years after the first model was released. The Audi S5 was introduced in 2018 so this particular model doesn't come with the same history of the Challenger but it's still a formidable contender. Its sharp styling and punchy engine makes it a lot of fun to drive.
The
Challenger, with its V6 engine, is a muscle car designed not only for the track
but for everyday use. It focuses on saving fuel but also has enough power on tap to ensure strong
acceleration when needed. Add the impressive fuel economy to the V6 Challenger's lower cost of
maintenance and you will begin to understand why people rave about this car.
Very few cars in the segment deliver a better marriage of performance and fuel savings than the new Audi S5. Under the hood sits its popular 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Its 252-horsepower output helps push the sedan to 60 mph in a competitive 5.7 seconds. A seven-speed automatic gearbox aids the car's ability to get up and go.
Where
the new Challenger surprises a lot of people is the big and comfortable
coupe as even large drivers will have no trouble fitting behind the
wheel. Unfortunately, the same can't be said about the S5. Its backseat doesn't provide the most legroom. While small backseat passengers will have no issues, taller folks are prone to bumping their knees.
If you are the type of driver that goes on long trips often, you probably want to know more about infotainment systems to make the
ride more enjoyable. Even the least expensive Challenger gives you
Dodge's top-rated Uconnect interface. By integrating your phone, you'll
be able to stay connected to messages and apps on the road with ease. The base model comes
equipped with the 276-watt Alpine sound system will keep you entertained as you cruise along to every destination.
If you love technology, Audi's MMI infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will make your day. A control knob near the center console enables you to select apps. Not only does the MMI interface get high marks for being user-friendly, but drivers also rave about the placement of its screen. While the standard MMI system is nice, the upgraded version features a larger screen with handwriting recognition..
When it
comes to safety, the Dodge Challenger has a lot to offer - forward collision
warning and adaptive cruise control, anti-lock brakes, traction control,
stability control, brake assist, active head restraints, curtain
airbags and an ignition immobilizer being just a few of them.
Audi offers a number of safety technologies for the new A5 Sportback, including adaptive cruise control with traffic jam assist and steering assist. Its Pre Sense City system can activate your brakes when your approaching a vehicle which makes driving in bumper-to-bumper traffic a lot less unnerving.
So, which one is better - Dodge Challenger or Audi A5?
We think that you should go with the Challenger because of its history and track-record of success.
