The 330i includes a standard 8.8-inch center screen which is larger than Audi’s standard screen AND its upgraded display. |
The Audi A4 comes standard with a 7-inch center screen that can be upgraded to an 8.3-inch display. |
|
The 330i’s optional Premium Package ($2,800) provides a 12.3″ display cluster screen and a high-resolution 10.25″ Control Display. |
However… the 8.3-inch center screen only comes in the Prestige trim (an $8,800 add). Also, Premium Plus and Prestige trims include a 12.3” virtual cockpit gauge cluster (not center screen) navigation system. |
|
The optional Executive Package ($2,100) includes Gesture Control, allowing 330i drivers to keep their eyes on the road while making audio selections. |
The A4 does not offer gesture control at all. |

To level the base model BMW 330i xDrive with the A4 Premium (base) trim, we must add leather seats ($1,700). That gives the BMW 330i xDrive a total price of $44,945. To the A4, we must add 18-inch wheels and Audi Care maintenance. The Audi price then becomes $44,794…$151 less than the BMW.
If one wants to add advanced driving assistance or convenience features to the 330i xDrive, there are several packages to consider at reasonable prices. Generally, with the A4, if one wants to obtain those features, one must move up whole trim levels. The Premium Plus trim level adds $5,500 to the A4 -quite a big single step…and the Prestige trim level is $8,800 more than the base (Note: The A4 base is called Premium).
