There is little difference in meaning, but after "in addition to" you would need a noun of some description.
Examples:
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition, they would like to sell potatoes.
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition to tomatoes, they would like to sell potatoes.
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition to THIS, they would like to sell potatoes.
In addition to tomatoes, the brothers also want to sell potatoes.

what is the difference between in addition and in addition to?
Examples:
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition, they would like to sell potatoes.
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition to tomatoes, they would like to sell potatoes.
The brothers want to sell tomatoes. In addition to THIS, they would like to sell potatoes.
In addition to tomatoes, the brothers also want to sell potatoes.
What is the difference between a prepositional phrase and an adverb clause?
A prepositional phrase is a phrase which consists of a preposition and a noun and functions as an adjective or an adverb.
I'll do my homework after dinner.
'after dinner' is a prepositional phrase and functions as an adverb.
An adverb clause is a clause which consists of a conjunction,a subject and a predicate and functions as an adverb.
I'll do my homework after I have dinner.
'after I have dinner' is an adverbial clause.
I'll do my homework after dinner.
'after dinner' is a prepositional phrase and functions as an adverb.
An adverb clause is a clause which consists of a conjunction,a subject and a predicate and functions as an adverb.
I'll do my homework after I have dinner.
'after I have dinner' is an adverbial clause.
- Usually, “besides" and “aside from" can be used interchangeably; however, there is a very slight difference. "Besides" is often considered to be a tiny bit less formal than “aside from".
- They are very nearly the same thing. I would say that, unless you’re using “besides" as an adverb or “aside" without the “from", it would be all right to use them interchangeably. If you’re writing something more formal, you might go with “aside from", and even then, there is only a slight difference.
difference between furthermore / moreover
- The difference in these two is so subtle, most people would use these interchangeably, usually with a meaning of "in addition" which would be the less formal way of saying both.
If you want to get very detailed, to me furthermore introduces an additional concept as a straight fact, whereas moreover suggests that there is a perceived link between the additional information.
More extreme versions of those sentences might read:
1) The car's acceleration performance is poor and the fuel consumption is extremely high. (The reader is left to draw their own conclusions based on these facts)
2) The car's acceleration performance is poor and what's more, the fuel consumption is extremely high. (The writer is possibly suggesting that this combination makes for a poor car)
As I said, it's subtle and I would say it's definitely possible to imply the second meaning also with 'furthermore'.
- Most speakers use them synonymously; some speakers don't:
moreover, beyond what has been said
furthermore, in addition to what has been said
[1] “The acceleration performance of this car model is very poor; furthermore, its fuel consumption is extremely high.”
[2] “The acceleration performance of this car is very poor; moreover, its fuel consumption is extremely high.”
In the first example, the speaker gives 'an impartial, co-equal assessment of the two inadequacies of the car model', whereas in the second example, a critical judgmental sense against the fuel consumption aspect is conveyed. The speaker’s bias shows somewhat.
