The A4 is all of the above and more. The slick exterior and interior design are executed perfectly with the right amount of flashy gadgets and simplicity where it is needed.Executive Cars Audi A4More Executive Cars for Busy Executives. With a few different engine options, including a 3.0-litre diesel that packs 268bhp and can get to 62mph in 5.3 seconds. One of the most important aspects of an executive car is how much it costs to run and the 2.0-litre TFSI engine can achieve 58.9mpg which will make those long journeys home a little lighter on the wallet.BMW 5 SeriesExecutive Cars: BMW 5 SeriesPrices- \u00a331,115-\u00a358,075When you think of business cars, BMW is definitely a brand that comes into mind. The 5 series is an obvious contender as it comes with the badge prestige, high quality interior, great engine choices and those classic BMW looks.Executive Cars BMW 5 SeriesThis car certainly comes with a hefty price tag; it is in fact the second highest priced car on this list! Depending on what car you have, you could save money in the long run as the 2.0-litre 520d model can do 67.3mpg.Mercedes Benz E-Class SaloonExecutive Cars.

Jaguar XEPrices- \u00a326,990-\u00a344,995We have a British entry on our list of saloons to take on the dominant Germans and the Jaguar will up a mighty fight. The XE is very highly regarded in the saloon section and a starting price of \u00a326,990 for a brand new executive Jaguar is an absolute steal. Plus it looks stunning.Executive Cars. Jaguar XEIf it’s economy you’re after, the\u00a02.0-litre diesel engined XE will manage a staggering 74mpg. The XE is renowned for its comfortable and smooth driving, however there is the slight problem of the car feeling cramped for passangers in the back, and for an executive saloon, that shouldn’t be an issue.Skoda SuperbExecutive Cars.

It is a comfortable drive, has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, a wide range of additional accessories and can even get 76.5mpg in its 1.6 TDI engine!The Winner: The Audi A4We have to give it to Audi, the A4 is a fantastic bit of engineering.
