I've driven both systems and feel Quattro is way better. Pros and cons of both?

 

I honestly know nothing about x-drive... why did you feel Quattro was "way better?"
Were you driving in snow?

 

The BMW 328xi feels like a heavy car. I mean I know BMW is all about the ultimate balancing of their cars but it felt like a balanced boat. The A4 Quattro just grips the road like I have never seen. I have driven both in the rain.

 

It's like this:

Quattro = EPIC
xDrive and everything else = Quattro wannabes

 

nobody can put it any better than that.

 

Haha, I get that Quattro has a lot of history... but I don't know what makes it any better than BMW. Is BMW all mechanical?

I've driven a 330xi briefly... the car did feel heavy, but that was just working it through a parking lot and some city streets. I never had it up to any kind of speed or pushed it at all. It wasn't my car. It felt great, really... though I never used the awd at all. BMW interiors help sell Audis, I think.

 

I'd rather like to know why Subaru's symmetrical AWD is so "great" It's just 50/50 distribution all the time big deal thats what almost any 4x4 out there is lol. I'll take my quattro w/ 50/50 normal and 70/30 under load. Sounds more fun to me!

 

I understand that Subaru uses electronic clutches to send power to specific wheels... while maintaining 50/50 axle distribution?
I've never looked into it... it's just what I remember from commercials... from when I used to watch TV.

 

xDrive is gay. Bimmer drivers are *****. I win. End of thread.

 

Once again, airguard has spoken. May it be unto us as he has said.
