Drive the 2017 Audi A4 or Experience the Volvo S60


Though it is a fun ride, the 2017 Audi A4 has a few glaring flaws that make it lag behind the Volvo S60. The first is a transmission that can shudder as the car begins to accelerate. In a vehicle focused on performance, this is hard to overlook. The A4's design also does little to differentiate itself from a typical sedan. These issues are exacerbated by the fact that the A4 costs almost $1,000 more than the S60 in the base trim.

The 2017 Volvo S60 expresses luxury in every imaginable way. With a higher maximum horsepower of 302, the S60 provides the white-knuckle experience you want from a luxury vehicle. You'll also be able to relax in the classy interior, made with premium materials. Perhaps the S60's best quality is its safety, with active features like Forward Collision Warning with Full Auto Braking.
