2022 Audi A4 vs. 2022 Lincoln MKZ

If you're in the market for a new car, you need to consider the 2022 Audi A4 and the 2022 Lincoln MKZ. Both of these vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but they are both great options for any driver looking to upgrade their vehicle. In this article, we will go over some of their different features so you can make an informed decision when buying your next car!

Design & Style

• Exterior Design
  When it comes to exterior design, the Audi A4 and Lincoln MKZ go in a very different directions from one another. The Audi wears its German heritage on its sleeve with a sleek, sporty look that stands out from other sedans in its class. It has an attractive profile with aggressive headlights.
  
  On the other hand, the Lincoln MKZ seems to be trying too hard to compete with high-end luxury cars like the Audi A4 by adopting an overly dramatic design aesthetic that doesn’t quite work as well as it could have. It has a lot of features and lines going on at once—the headlight visors are unnecessary; there are vents everywhere, including on top of each front fender—and all this creates an unbalanced look overall when compared against similar models like Cadillac CT6 or Audi A6.
  
• Interior Design
  The 2022 Audi A4 has a more minimalist interior design than the Lincoln MKZ. While both cars' interiors are available with woodgrain trim, Audi's cabin is dominated by leather, plastic, and metal. The same can be said for the 2022 Lincoln MKZ, but its dashboard is slightly less conventional-looking than its German-made rival.
  
  Both cars have large touchscreen infotainment systems (though they're not identical). However, while you'll find buttons on most surfaces in an Audi A4 cabin, there aren't any physical controls in a Lincoln MKZ—you interact with everything through this single screen!

Technology & Safety

The 2022 Audi A4 and the 2022 Lincoln MKZ both come with a number of safety technologies. Both cars have forward collision warnings and automatic emergency braking, which can also be used for pedestrian detection. In addition, the Audi and Lincoln each have adaptive cruise control that uses sensors to detect vehicles in front and adjust speed accordingly. Also, both cars have lane-keeping assist that can apply steering inputs if you drift out of your lane without input from you. The MKZ even has adaptive headlights that illuminate farther down the road than ordinary headlights in order to help prevent accidents caused by other drivers' improper use of their high beams.

Performance

The 2022 Audi A4 comes with a 2.0-liter turbocharged I4 engine that produces 201 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. The 2022 Lincoln MKZ features a 2.0-liter V6 engine that generates 245 hp and 275 lb-ft of torque in its base form, which can be upgraded through the performance package to 385 hp and 387 lb-ft of torque.

The Bottom Line

If you're in the market for a luxury sedan, then you should definitely consider this one. The Audi A4 looks great and has tons of standard features that are important to your daily life. You'll be happy with its cargo space and good handling capabilities, too!
