SUMMARY For all the dissimilarity of the main players and the differences in their technical and marketing strategies, the competition in the leading pair is extremely tough. Mercedes and Audi are almost equal. They are the most progressive. They are representatives of equivalent brands. The near future is behind them. But the winner is always the same, and we tend to recognize the victory of Mercedes with a minimum advantage by a combination of properties. Its strengths are the technical perfection of the suspension, expressive design and the highest quality. With all the above, he does not have any serious shortcomings. Audi trump cards Diesel engines offer and Quattro all -wheel drive. The Audi A4 salon is the most spacious. If not for Mercedes, his chassis should be recognized as the best, but in the direct comparison it does not collect both comfort and controllability and tenacious. And convincingly prove their advantage over all other participants. Infiniti G35 is still a unique combination of rich configuration and inaccessible power of an all-wheel drive machine with a relatively low price. In third place, he was only due to the fact that his audience is limited by the absence of the possibility of choosing more modest engines. Lexus is 250 is in unchanged demand and its future is unclosed thanks to a good price offer, excellent quality reputation and wide possibilities for the choice of equipment. For a more confident game in Russian conditions, in our opinion, he would benefit the expansion of engines and the possibility of obtaining a full -wheel drive system. Jaguar is in yourself. It is now difficult to talk about direct competition with other participants in the test. He is unique in his style.
