Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Audi A4 than the Nissan Sentra. The Nissan Sentra will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Audi A4.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Audi A4 as you will with the Nissan Sentra, 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 A4 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Nissan Sentra, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Audi A4 is a little wider than the Nissan Sentra, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Audi A4, which is slightly longer than the Nissan Sentra.

Handling
The Audi A4 has a larger turning radius than the Nissan Sentra, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi A4 has a much more powerful engine than the Nissan Sentra. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Audi A4 does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Nissan Sentra.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Audi A4 and the Nissan Sentra.
