Aluminium is lighter and will not rust. As it is lighter it is easier to achieve a better power to weight ratio.

Aluminium is more expensive than steel but steel will break a lot easier.

Hope this helps everyone who reads it! :D

What are the advantages or disadvantages of steel vs aluminium cars?

Aluminium has some advantages over steel. Since it has a lower density than iron or steel, a car body made from aluminium will be lighter than the same car body made from steel. This results in improved fuel economy. Also, aluminium does not corrode easily, so a car body made from aluminium will corrode less, and may last longer, than one made from steel. However, aluminium is more expensive than steel. So a car made from aluminium is likely to be more expensive than one made from steel.
