2015 Hyundai Genesis vs. Audi A4
Posted: Jul 24, 2014
Over the last few years, the Hyundai Genesis has jolted to the forefront of the luxury car segment. The newly-revamped 2015 Hyundai Genesis sedan is poised to become one of the best values on the car market. The sedan’s responsive engine and agile chassis will make it a joy to drive on a daily basis. Drivers who crave an abundance of high-tech features and an upscale interior will be more than satisfied with what the new Genesis brings to the table. Let’s take a look at how the 2015 Hyundai Genesis sedan stacks up against the capable Audi A4.
Power Output
There is no denying the fact that the Audi A4 offers a very spirited on-road performance. However, The Audi A4’s 220-horsepower engine is trumped by the powerful V-6 motor that rests under the hood of the new Genesis sedan. The 3.8-liter, six-cylinder engine is able to pump out a hefty 311 horsepower and 293 pound-feet of torque. Due to the fact that the Audi A4’s engine is assisted by a turbocharger, the available power may be diminished during hot weather. On the other hand, the naturally-aspirated engine in the Genesis remains responsive in all driving situations.
Gas Mileage
The Audi A4 is able to deliver a tad bit better fuel efficiency. However, it is important to keep in mind that the Audi A4 does require premium fuel at all times. Meanwhile, the 2015 Hyundai Genesis will run perfectly fine on regular octane.
Warranty
The Audi A4 only comes with a 4-year/50,000-mile drivetrain warranty. On the other hand, the 2015 Hyundai Genesis is offered with a lengthy 10-year/100,000-mile drivetrain warranty. The longer warranty period is a very important factor for the drivers who have intentions of keeping their vehicle on a long-term basis.
Interior Room
Unfortunately, the Audi A4 is not able to compete with the 2015 Hyundai Genesis in terms of interior room. With an interior volume of 123 cubic feet, the Genesis sedan offers ample room for a variety of different sized passengers.
High-Tech Amenities
When it comes to high-tech equipment, both the Audi A4 and the new Hyundai Genesis are very formidable competitors. The 2015 Genesis sedan now offers more high-tech innovations than ever before. Some of the state-of-the-art features consist of a heads-up display, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-departure warning. The new Smart Cruise Control feature is actually able to apply pressure to the brakes if the driver is following too closely to the rear of another vehicle. In an effort to prevent drowsiness at the wheel, an innovative feature opens a set of vents if CO2 emissions are detected inside of the cabin.
All-Wheel Drive
While the Audi’s all-wheel drive system is great for enhancing the amount of on-road traction, some drivers will prefer the driving dynamics of a rear-wheel drive platform. The 2015 Hyundai Genesis now gives prospective buyers the ability to choose between a rear-wheel drive setup and a new multi-mode AWD system. With the touch of a button, the driver can change the settings of the AWD system to match the road conditions.
