S5 vs. M4: Key Differences in Performance

When you compare two luxury coupes, you first want to look at how they differ in terms of performance. Because, let's be honest, you want a fast vehicle that can take on any road. So let's start with a 2017 Audi S5 and 2017 BMW M4 performance comparison. 

At first glance, the 2017 BMW M4 is a bit more competitive than the Audi S5, especially in terms of horsepower. But let's break that down a bit. The BMW M4 has a lower curb weight than the Audi S5-about 320 pounds-which gives it a small boost in acceleration speed (about 0.8 seconds). But that increase in weight and slight decrease in acceleration is because the S5 has a larger fuel tank than the M4. So you'll get quite a few more miles between fuel stops even though the two have the same EPA-estimated fuel economy. 

Another point of difference between the two is in their capabilities. The 2017 M4 comes standard with rear-wheel drive. But the 2017 S5 is equipped with Quattro All Wheel Drive, so whether you're driving in perfect weather in West Palm Beach, Stuart, and Coral Springs or you're off on a tough-weather adventure, the S5 will get you around safely.

2017 M4 vs. 2017 S5: Major Differences in Technology

As a luxury car buyer, you know the importance of having advanced technology that works well. Not only does it improve your overall experience, but it also can prove to be a major safety concern if the technology isn't easy to use. That's what we see in the 2017 BMW M4: an infotainment system that's difficult to distraction. 

On the other hand, the 2017 Audi S5 has an easy-to-use infotainment system that blows the competition out of the water. The optional MMI Navigation plus system is one of the features we love best about the S5. Paired with Audi Connect and the Bang & Olufsen sound system with 14 speakers, you'll have the ride of your life.
