Features: INFINITI Q50 vs. Audi A4

The INFINITI Q50 costs slightly more than the Audi A4, but this is one matchup in which you get what you pay for. Here’s where the Q50 comes out ahead:

• Trunk Volume: With 13.5 cubic feet of trunk space, the Q50 is more practical than the A4. The latter has 12 cubic feet in the trunk, which doesn’t leave much room for bulky cargo.
• Infotainment: Both models include standard Wireless Apple CarPlay™, but the Q50 comes with a dual-screen InTouch™ interface that puts more information at your fingertips. The A4 includes a 10.1 inch touchscreen.
• Safety Features: Both models include standard automatic emergency braking, but only the Q50 includes standard adaptive cruise control and standard blind spot monitoring. These two features can make all the difference on San Francisco-area commutes and long-distance road trips, and they both require an upgrade in the Audi.
