2020 Audi A6 vs. 2020 Cadillac CT5

The quiet powertrain and the suite of modern technology make the 2020 Audi A6 the best choice if you are after looking for a luxury car update. It is impossible not to love it with its refined features and praise-worthy characteristics. The A6 is the epitome of a modern luxury vehicle and it would be a big mistake to choose it over anything else. 

Because of the overwhelming profile of the A6, other vehicles find it a very tough competition to beat. The 2020 Cadillac CT5, in particular, needs to offer more so that it can compel buyers to look its way. Will it be able to replace the A6 at the top? Here is a comparison to see why not.

Design & Style

The A6 has an adventurous stance that is on a stylish body. Seamless exterior results from the full-paint finish cladding the A6. Illuminating the road ahead is a set of Matrix-design full LED headlights while dynamic turn indicators illuminate the taillights. There are also body lines that give it a confident bearing. Matching the athletic exterior is a refined cabin. It is made up of the finest leather material to keep up with the sophisticated appeal. Comfort is also a priority with the available seat ventilation and mood-setting ambient lighting.

The CT5 sports a modern fastback look instead of a traditional sedan shape. It looks like the CT6 but other design details are borrowed from the 2016 Escala. It is sculpted nicely but the blockier look seems off for a luxury vehicle.

Technology & Safety

It is impressive how Audi keeps on surprising people with modern in-car technology. The A6 has the new MMI infotainment not only to entertain but more about communicating with the user. It effectively works in accessing all the functions and capabilities of the A6 without confusing the user. Even the voice command feature works like a charm.

The infotainment for the CT5 is also excellent but not as exceptional as that on the A6.

Performance

The A6 looks expressive but it can also be commanding on the road. It is available in two powertrains, a 248-hp four-cylinder and  a turbocharged V6 for up to 335-hp output. Both engines feel engaging and deliver plenty of thrust. It has an amazing cornering ability and is able to keep upright through twists and turns.

The Cadillac has a 237-hp engine for its base trim and an optional V6 at 335 hp is set to be launched later on. There is nothing notable about its performance other than that it is fast.

The Bottom Line

The 2020 Audi A6 clearly delivered everything that a luxury buyer wants from a premium vehicle. There is no point in comparing it against the measly characteristics of the 2020 Cadillac CT5.
