Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Dodge Challenger than the Audi S5, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Dodge Challenger will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Audi S5.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Audi S5 as you will with the Dodge Challenger, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Audi S5 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Dodge Challenger, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Audi S5 is much slimmer than the Dodge Challenger, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Audi S5, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Dodge Challenger.

Handling
The Audi S5 has a larger turning radius than the Dodge Challenger, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Audi S5 has less horsepower than the Dodge Challenger, so it will probably be somewhat slower.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the Audi S5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Dodge Challenger.

Utility
The Audi S5 has less seating than the Dodge Challenger, making the Dodge Challenger the better choice if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
