Performance
With that kind of horsepower, the Audi A6 is a genuine sports car. With respect to horsepower, the Audi A6 packs quite a wallop and will knock the Chevrolet HHR Panel down a few rungs. On the other hand, remember that high horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Handling

The Chevrolet HHR Panel is substantially cheaper to get to the dealership than the Audi A6. The Audi will tax your gasoline budget considerably more than the Chevrolet HHR Panel will.
