Smart Choice of a car

If you are someone who test drives similar cars before buying the right one, you would go for RS5. Respect! Pros Feels like E-class within city limits Very comfortable seats with massage fn Not a noisy cabin as Daily Car Cons Had to retrofit wireless CarPlay off-market Indian speed breakers.

My overall experience was good. I will give 5 out of 5

Last month I drove this car approx 100 km. This car gives a good comfort and a good space. Engine performance was excellent according to my experience.. at last time car value for money. Thanks

The Mercedes E53 AMG is plenty fast and quite forgiving at the same time. Read our review to know how it’s such a great compromise.
