In this changing world, we have nothing that is certain all the time. This time we are talking about the car world. There was a time in when the elders used to buy three-box sedan cars to show the sober and severe side of themselves. But with the changing time, four doors are struggling to retain the same relevance among the customers. So a massive change came in the sedan sector where the car is a package of technology, a hatch door for carrying your camping equipment. These features make the new sedans the king of cars.

They have long established brands but Kia being a new brand has made to the premium realm to hit it high. The Kia Stinger is the king car for its success to reach the heritage league.   

All three cars have a medium sized hatchback equipped with a longitudinally turbocharged engine with 2.0-liter cylinder capacity. Each of the cars makes about 250 horsepower that feeds automatic transmissions with at least seven forward gears. They have an all-wheel drive. BMW and Kia are conventional drives and Audi won't want its engine hanging out of its front wheels. 

All three are not high performing cars. All the three models have base engines. The S5 Sportback, 440i Gran Coupe and Stinger GT all feature all feature turbocharged engine with 300 horsepower.  And the fun stops here; we don't have an RS5 Sportback, M4 Gran or V-8 powered stinger.
