If you don't think about the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and BMW 3 Series, then in the same class, the Audi A4L and Volvo S60 are two cars that you absolutely can't spare, of course, you can also look at the Cadillac CT5 or something.
Back to the point, the Audi A4L and Volvo S60 may be two cars that make you very entangled, because they all have their own personality, but their personalities are not so prominent, of course, they can meet a lot of your needs, but they will also make you feel unfinished, between these two cars, how to choose?
Soul Torture - Which car is more face-saving?
Both the Audi A4L and the Volvo S60 can be considered "their own car". why? Because the A6L is too commercial, and the S90 has become a high-end ride-hailing car. The A4L and S60 can be regarded as self-use cars, and they can better reflect personal style and temperament. Moreover, whether it is buying Audi or Volvo, it is impossible not to ignore their "face".
If you drive a Volvo S60, then your temperament is definitely not rich second generation, this car can associate you with the labels of lawyers, doctors, civil servants and intermediate white-collar workers, you can show a kind of volvo personality that you yourself "understand" very much, making people feel that you are pursuing an ethereal and healthy attitude, and love family and life.
Compared with the S60, the Audi A4L is more youthful and personal. Although it is more suitable for business scenes than the S60, it is more compatible with the fashion scene, or more in line with the fashion attitude to life, and the men and women driving this car can be well-paid freelancers, or creative directors with wild ideas, and their daily lives are full of surprises.
Therefore, I really want to say which car to drive more face, to 35 years old as the dividing line, under 35 years old to drive A4L more passionate face, 35 years old + crowd, driving S60 more calm face.
Motivation - both 2.0T, completely different personalities
Whether it's the Audi A4L or volvo S60, its main engine, or the only engine offered, is the four-cylinder 2.0T engine. The A4L with a 40 design has a maximum power of 190 hp, and the corresponding B4 version of the Volvo S60 has a maximum power of 197 hp. The A4L, numbered 45, has a maximum power of 252 horsepower, while the B5 version of the Volvo S60 has a maximum power of 250 horsepower. It can be said that whether it is a low-power version or a high-power version, the A4L and S60 have almost no difference in powertrain.
But in the actual experience, Volvo's 2.0T feels more "dry", low-speed torque burst earlier than the Audi A4L, almost let you feel no delay, but the A4L's 2.0T, when the throttle is pressed to the end, it will make you feel a click, it is an obvious delay, but after this delay point, Audi's 2.0T jumps up like a wild horse out of control.
It sounds really strange, in terms of powertrain feedback, the S60, which looks more calm, is a bit rushed, while the A4L is more like a gentle family car.
Driving Sensation – Grudging Exercise PK Grudging Comfort
In terms of driving experience, the Audi A4L and Volvo S60 both show their strengths and weaknesses with distinct personalities. The Volvo S60 is a comfortable overall tuning, but with an engine of about 200 horsepower, Volvo is a little active and wants to try it in the direction of movement. But in the driving, what you can feel from the S60 is still the quietness in the bones, and this Volvo-specific temperament will pull you back when you want to drive fiercely.
You often feel that you are stimulated by the power of the S60 to want to move, but the body of the S60 is not so cooperative, for example, in the corners and out of the corner, you will always feel that the rear of the car is a little weak to throw, and when you especially want to control the vehicle through the engine speed, you will find that the 200-horsepower S60 does not have a paddle shifter – which will make you particularly helpless.
The Audi A4L is the complete opposite of the Volvo S60, its entire handling is full of sports, and even let you not consider the feelings of too many rear passengers, especially the high-endquattro model, will make you feel like the whole car is stuck to the ground with glue, and the driving confidence it brings will make you especially want to try to challenge the limits of the A4L, and you will unconsciously feel that you have become a car god.
Therefore, on the Audi A4L, although it uses the front and rear multi-link suspension, you can really put comfort in the second place, and even you can ignore the comfort, not that the A4L is uncomfortable, the rear space, especially the legroom, feels more generous than the S60, although the actual difference is about 30 mm, and objectively speaking, the Volvo S60's main ergonomic seat is actually harder than the A4L seat.
Value for money - Volvo S60 wins
The first thing to explain is that both have a lot of discounts in the terminal, and sometimes the discount can reach the point of being jaw-dropping. Depending on the specific model and different 4S stores, in most cases, the terminal price of the S60 will be slightly lower than the A4L, but occasionally the A4L will be slightly lower than the price of the S60, but usually the price of the S60 will be lower in the case of the configuration.
When it comes to the cost performance of the two cars, there is no suspense, the sex price of the S60 is much higher than that of the Audi A4L. Although both are reasonable in the basic configuration, on the S60, Volvo's full set of driver assistance systems is standard, including lane departure, full-speed adaptive cruise, lane keeping and other very practical configurations in actual driving, while on Audi, many similar configurations are optional, and the optional price is not low.
At the same time, the Volvo S60 also lists seat heating and ventilation, as well as a small plus point for memory function, which is actually very suitable for the car buying habits of the Chinese people. On the contrary, the Audi A4L seems a bit stingy, there are too many functions that you think should be standard, in fact, they are optional, but German cars are like this, believe me, compared to Porsche, Audi A4L is already a conscience.
Write at the end
In the case of the same budget, the Volvo S60 must be more cost-effective than the Audi A4L, considering that you can't travel on the road every day in drag racing mode, the Volvo S60 is more suitable for the whole scene, after all, "sports" is more of a psychological hint, and most of the time, comfort and safety is the true meaning of the car, which is where the S60 is stronger than the Audi A4L. Moreover, before the age of 35 and after the age of 35, your understanding and needs of the car will definitely be significantly different.
