Any "is better than" statement is frought and pointless. You've got to specify better "at what". My 1st car was a Citroën 2CV, with a 9HP engine, zero noise isolation, barely able to keep moving forward on inclines over 10%, top speed 70 km/h, not quite rainproof... was it a better car than a Ferrari ? Yes ! because I was able to afford it and keep it maintained, and because it could go on barely-there muddy dirt roads that would have stopped and ruined a Ferrari.
