Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
Audi A6
  • New flashy design to the interiors
  • Three coloured screens to cocoon you in the drivers cockpit
  • New chassis is quite agile and comfortable
  • Petrol is refined and powerful
  • Looks sharp
Mercedes-Benz AMG C43
  • Feels friendly to drive, just like a normal C-Class Livable ride quality and can be used as a daily driver, luxurious cabin experience, spacious for four people and has a decent boot
Audi A6
  • No diesel option
  • Not really a chauffeur driven option
  • Not really exciting from behind the wheel either
  • Only one drivetrain option
  • Audi has also chosen to leave quattro all-wheel drive, all-wheel steering and the more powerful engines off the options list
Mercedes-Benz AMG C43
  • Plastic quality at certain places could’ve been better, You need to ring the 2-litre petrol engine hard to dial up the excitement, rivals offer the same or even better experience at a lower price point, space saver eats into boot space
