Audi A8 vs. BMW 750

The 2016 Audi A8 and the 2016 BMW 750 are two popular models for luxury car buyers in the West Palm Beach, Coral Springs, and Stuart area thanks to their incredible performances and entertainment features. But on closer inspection, you'll see some huge differences. We've outlined them here in this 2016 Audi A8 vs. BMW 750 comparison from Audi West Palm Beach.

Audi A8 vs. BMW 7: Performance and Capability

When you look at the performance and capability of the 2016 Audi A8 and the BMW 7 Series, you'll immediately see a huge difference. For starters, the base engine of the A8 L is a 3.0-liter V6 that produces 333 horsepower and has Quattro all-wheel drive. The 2016 BMW 740i (the base trim level) comes with a 3.0-liter V6 engine that produces only 320 horsepower and has rear-wheel drive. 

When we look at the BMW 750 specifically against the comparable trim of the Audi A8 (L), you'll see another major disparity. The 750 is equipped with a 4.4-liter BMW Twin Turbo V8 engine that produces 445 horsepower. But the A8 L offers a comparable 4.0-liter 450-horsepower engine that produces 444 lb-ft of torque. This engine comes with Quattro all-wheel drive and offers a stunning ride quality thanks to the Audi adaptive air suspension system.

Standard Feature Comparison: 2016 A8 vs. 2016 BMW 750

Another major point of contention between these two vehicles is in feature quality and availability. If we're still looking at the top-level BMW 7 series trim level, the 750, we see great features. It comes with the Harman Kardon surround sound audio system with 16 speakers, the iDrive 5.0 system with touchscreen, programmable memory buttons, a touchpad controller, and the BMW Navigation system with a 10.2-inch high-resolution screen with 3D maps. 

But when matched against the comparable features in the 2016 A8, the 750 starts to pale a little. The A8 comes standard with a 7-inch color driver information system, the MMI navigation plus with voice control system, the MMI touch with handwriting-recognition ability, a Bose surround sound system with AudioPilot noise-compensation, and the head-up display with navigation information so you don't need to look down unless you want to.

And while the BMW 750 offers a rearview camera, the Audi A8 offers a top and corner view camera system to give you optimal view of your surroundings.
