- We quattro is a proper SUV from Audi its main entry level car apart from A3.An allrounder .Gla is tagged as sports with nice interiors bit cramped rear gives my verdict in favour of Q3 more over the aftersales experience from Audi I'd nice.
- Audi is no match to Mercedes in any luxury class. If we talk about BMW we may still compare but Audi is just not luxury class in comparison of its features and comforts and safety compared to a Merc.

3 SeriesMy Journey with the BMW 3 Series
When I first got my hands on the BMW 3 Series, I was surprised. It is a car that promises both luxury and performance and I have to say it does not disappoint. Driving through the bustling streets of India, the 3 Series with its 255 horsepower engine provides a smooth yet exhilarating ride. The fuel efficiency at about 6 to 15 km/l depending on the model and driving conditions, is pretty decent for a luxury car. Inside the plush interiors and advanced tech make every ride comfortable and entertaining.The maintenance cost can also be a bit steep, which is something potential buyers should consider.

The BMW 3 series is a car of great value and great space, perfect for larger groups and families. I have already gone for trips with family in my car and it has been very mesmerising and comfortable. We had a lot of fun. The price is affordable, the features are amazing and its transmission is manual. Exterior and interior are very beautiful and passenger friendly.

3 SeriesComfort based car
The most gorgeous looking sedan BMW 3 series is a comfort oriented car and is mostly prefer for the long trips because the comfort level is just incredible. The performance it gives is really impressive and is a all rounder car but the boot space is less. The driving exerience with this car is really very nice and is a high quality car with this high quality of material with amazing finishing but the space is not as good in this sedan. With the powerful engine is great for city, highway and for long rides but the ground clearance is low.

GLA Class4.0Rear seats
If anyone really is a drive enthusiast looking for a performance car in the compact SUV segment, with lot of style and statement, this is the car to go for. Its really flashy, the petrol version (and only the petrol version in GLA) is pretty powerful to give you those driver adrenaline if you want those. The car is very communicative to the driver, and very safe such that a naive or beginner driver can quickly adapt to driving this car (my wife learnt to drive and enjoys driving my car). It is really safe with a lot of assisting features like the Active brake assist which I love for beginner drivers like my wife (the car senses the urgency to brake and assists in braking on time with the required intensity. On the other hand if I want to race the accelerators in a moment they sense my experienced footwork and lets me do what I want to do with the car. Its really communicative to my driving style. Comfort and styling though lagging in comparison to other higher version Mercedes cars, is definitely a lot more feature rich than the competitors BMW and AUDI. Space issues are there if someone is looking for a family SUV, But trust me I carried a 6 foot long 50kg kickboxing bag in my boot with the rear seats down and front passenger side seat a bit pushed ahead, still two of us me and my wife drove back with that bag. So although space on record and looks are really not so much as you would expect of an SUV, it is doable. Now those who go after style and fun really wont care much about space would they? And rear seats are fairly comfortable but a driver like me who have never sat on his rear seats of the previous cars in the last fifteen years cannot care less about rear seat comfort and spaces. For self the driver, space and comfort is pretty much competitive with peer brands though not as good as the higher versions of Merc which I would like to enjoy.
