Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Audi A6 than the Audi A4, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Audi A4 and the Audi A6 in the front seats.

Convenience
The Audi A6 requires fewer visits to the gas station than the Audi A4, 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). Based on MSRP, the Audi A4 is clearly a better financial choice over the Audi A6.

Dimensions
Since the Audi A4 is much slimmer than the Audi A6, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The Audi A4 is slightly shorter than the Audi A6, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Audi A4 has a smaller turning radius than the Audi A6, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi A4 is significantly less powerful than the Audi A6. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the Audi A4 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Audi A6.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Audi A4 and the Audi A6.
