2021 Audi A7 vs. 2021 Lexus LS
vThe 2021 Audi A7 easily catches the attention of car buyers in Eastchester because of its handsome construction. It has also introduced a new RS 7 variant, plus it has powerful engines to offer.
The 2021 Lexus LS, meanwhile, is also being appreciated by those who have tried it for its high-end cabin construction. Now standard for this ride is the Android Auto.
Design & Style
The 2021 Audi A7 has a cargo area that can expand to a roomier one once the rear seats are folded. Offering seats for five occupants, there is plenty of cushiony materials to keep passengers comfortable throughout the trip. There is more than enough legroom and headroom at both rows too. Standard to the ride are heated front seats and leather upholstery. There is a lot of soft-touch plastics inside with brushed metal, wood, and leather forming part of its accents.
Also seating five people, the 2021 LS offers spacious seating arrangements in front. The driver and his co-pilot have the privilege to enjoy 16 standard power adjustments in its heated and ventilated seats. It has an excellent build quality with real wood accents and plush leathers adorning the cabin. Still, it does not look as good as the A7 does.
Technology & Safety
The 2021 Audi A7 is blessed to have the same touch screen configurations as that of the A6 since it carries the 8.8-inch upper touch screen, and the lower 8.6-inch touch screen. The upper screen is used for radio, navigation, and smartphone integration, while the lower one can be used while adjusting vehicle and climate control settings. It also has a USB port, satellite radio, Bluetooth, and HD radio. Safety equipment includes rearview camera, automatic high-beam headlights, lane departure warning, front and rear parking sensors, automatic emergency braking, and forward collision warning.
When it comes to the LS, expect a 12.3-inch infotainment system that is just within reach. The Remote Touchpad is still there but this one is useless in the setup. Its software is outdated, thus deducting points from its already good marks. It integrates Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa, and has other standard features like voice recognition, USB ports, satellite and HD radios, and 12 speakers. Safety features include adaptive headlights, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, and pedestrian and cyclist detection.
Performance
The base 2021 Audi A7 variant has a turbo-V6 engine that gives it power for 355 horses. Going mightier for this model is the S7 which can generate 444 horsepower. The newly introduced model, on the other hand, is capable of producing up to 591 horsepower.
The LS gets its power from a 416-horsepower engine, with a hybrid variant that is a bit more sluggish to generate only 354 horsepower.
The Bottom Line
Sporty and elegant, the 2021 Audi A7 knows how to impress its avid fans in New York. The ride is definitely better in all aspects when compared to the 2021 Lexus LS.
