Nowadays, young people choose cars not only for practicality, but also for appearance, power and safety. There are many kinds of cars on the market, so it is not easy to choose a car that suits you. Only by comparison can we see which car is more worth buying.

Audi A4L and Cadillac CT5 are both 300,000-class mid-level cars, which are sought after by many consumers because of their high quality. Today we will analyze which of these two modes is more suitable for you from multiple dimensions.

Appearance contrast

In terms of appearance, the Cadillac CT5 continues the family-style design concept, but the front face still adopts a large-size air intake grille designed with a honeycomb mesh, and the recognition of the whole vehicle is good. Silver chrome-plated bright strips are added to the edge of the grille for decoration. The curved air intake at the lower part of the front of the car looks exquisite, and the headlights on both sides are sharp. Coupled with the lines outlined on the hood, it increases the sense of strength of the whole vehicle.

The side of the car body is outlined with sharp lines, which has a good sense of toughness and prolongs the visual sense of the whole car. The A, B and C columns are painted black, and silver chrome-plated bright strips are added to the edge of the window, which looks very delicate. The lower part is designed with aluminum alloy wheels. And the body size is 4924 mm *1883 mm *1453 mm, the wheelbase is 2947 mm, and the interior space is good.

Right-angle headlights are used at the rear of the car, and the internal structure is very exquisite, and the effect is good after lighting. There are obvious ribs at the rear of the car, and there are slender chrome trim strips below, which echo the front face. Below is the double air outlet, and the flat air outlet is calm and low-key. It is decorated with chrome trim, surrounded by flat chrome exhaust on both sides, and with rough diffuser, the layering of the tail is enhanced, and the whole vehicle has a good sports atmosphere.

In styling design, Audi A4L has always given people an elegant and atmospheric visual experience. A large number of banner chrome-plated air intake grilles on the front face have great visual impact. Sharp headlights with LED light sources on both sides and sharp lines on the engine make it look very imposing.

The side design of Audi A4L is dynamic, especially the wheel hub shape, which is like a sharp blade. The hollow suspension is alternately designed, and the power performance is good. Even under static conditions, you can feel the impact of the new car. Chrome-plated decorative strips are used around the window for decoration; Covered with plastic film before leaving the factory, full of details. The dimension data is in the middle and upper reaches of the same level, with a length, width and height of 4858* 1847* 1439mm and a wheelbase of 2908mm, which can not only bring a harmonious and slender body visual effect, but also meet the high requirements for space.

The tail design is quite satisfactory, there is nothing amazing, but it will not make people feel outdated. The taillight group under the application of LED light source is the finishing touch, especially at night. It is worth mentioning that the internal structure of the taillight group echoes well with the headlights, which shows the strength of the lamp factory. Then the three-dimensional effect of the tail is not bad, and the concave and convex lines match the tail of the duckling tilted in the trunk. The real double exhaust layout makes the sense of movement very satisfactory.

Internal contrast

In terms of interior, Cadillac CT5 adopts a simple design style, with black elements as the main elements, highlighting the atmosphere. The car not only uses a lot of soft materials, but also uses wooden decorative boards to decorate the details, which looks very fashionable. The steering wheel is made of leather, which supports up and down+front and back adjustment, making it very convenient to use. This car has five interior colors, namely night, brown and black, vanilla, gardenia and piano.

Equipped with 12 inch full LCD instrument panel, three theme interfaces can be switched, namely comfort mode, sports mode and track mode. The left and right buttons on the right side of the steering wheel can switch the display content on the right side of the dashboard, open the menu to find the option, and then click OK to make the dashboard display effect change according to the mode, or not. It is worth mentioning that the track mode is one of them. It seems that the interface is more mobile, which increases the test drive experience.

In terms of configuration, it is equipped with active braking, reversing image, cruise control, uphill assist, brake assist, engine start-stop technology, one-button start and keyless entry. And remotely start and actively close the air intake grille. The front row adopts multi-layer sound insulation glass with active noise reduction as standard. Support CarPlay and CarLife mobile phone interconnection, which is quite convenient for daily use.

Audi A4L is equipped with a three-position multi-function steering wheel, followed by a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, which can not only clearly display all kinds of data, but also display navigation projection, with a good sense of science and technology. The seat comes standard with leather-like material, with sports style design, better wrapping and support.

In terms of configuration, many configurations of Audi A4L need to be optional, such as L2 intelligent assisted driving function, variable steering ratio, steering wheel heating, etc., but mainstream configurations such as 6SRS airbag, cruise control, panoramic sunroof, one-button start and rear seat air outlet are all equipped.

Functional configuration is not rich, but A4L is cost-effective, so you can use this money to choose some configurations you need. For example, the L2 driver assistance system must be optional, whether it is high or low. In addition, HUD head-up display system, front seat ventilation and 19 speaker b&; O brand audio and other high-end configurations, a single choice is not expensive, but it is not cost-effective to own them all.

Dynamic contrast

In terms of power, the Cadillac CT5 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 237 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350N.m The transmission part is matched with 10 automatic manual transmission, and the acceleration per 100 kilometers is 7.3 seconds. The power performance is very abundant, the driving texture of the chassis is also good, and the handling performance is excellent. The suspension structure is a front double-ball-joint spring strut, a rear five-bar independent suspension, and a front-rear drive layout.

We know that CT5' s 10AT gearbox has four planetary gear sets, which can combine the transmission ratio of 10, while ZF's 8AT and universal longitudinal 8AT gearbox also adopt four planetary gear sets. CT5' s 10AT adopts six actuators, including two brakes and four clutches. CT5' s 10AT gearbox only has one more clutch than ZF 8AT and the five actuators of the universal longitudinal 8AT gearbox, but Cadillac CT5 is equipped with a variable displacement oil pump, which can automatically adjust the oil supply according to the engine speed output. At the same time, the transmission oil with lower viscosity is adopted, which reduces the running resistance of gears in the transmission, thus improving fuel economy and good expressive force.

In terms of power, A4L comes standard with a 2.0T engine, which is in line with its status as a luxury brand, but it is divided into high and low power options. The maximum power of low power version 140kW, the maximum torque of 320N·m, the maximum power 185kW and the maximum torque of 370n m. ..

Uniformly match the 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, and the two models are also equipped with quattro four-wheel drive system. According to official data, the low-power version has an acceleration of 8 seconds per 100 kilometers, and the high-power version has 6.6 seconds, which still has certain advantages in front of competing products, especially the measured result of the high-power version is about 6 seconds, which is the fastest car at the same price.

I have to admit that Cadillac CT5 Deluxe Edition has achieved everything in product welfare, and the demand for consumers is quite in place. It can be called a sports car, with flexible control, comfortable chassis in large space and strong practicability. At the same time, the on-board system is more intelligent and the fuel consumption is low enough, which can fully meet the needs of domestic consumers. This is a real strength model. Generally speaking, A4L's ride space is prominent, and the value-keeping rate of later models is also good.

If your car environment is self-centered, then CT5 is more suitable. If your car purchase plan is for a family of three, A4L is a better choice.
