Comfort
The Audi A6 offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the BMW 540.
Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Audi A6, drivers may find the BMW 540 a little roomier and somewhat more comfortable.
Convenience
The Audi A6 will require fewer stops at the gas station than the BMW 540, making it more convenient to drive.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Audi A6 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the BMW 540.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Audi A6 and the BMW 540 have similar Destination Charges.
Dimensions
The Audi A6 is a little wider than the BMW 540, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze.
When looking at overall length, the Audi A6 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the BMW 540.
Drivetrain
With its lower torque, the Audi A6 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the BMW 540.
Handling
The Audi A6 has a smaller turning radius than the BMW 540, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi A6 is significantly less powerful than the BMW 540. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.
Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Audi A6 and the BMW 540.
