Since the Audi Q5 is much slimmer than the Dodge Hornet, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Audi Q5, which is slightly longer than the Dodge Hornet.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Audi Q5 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Dodge Hornet.
