Grey Audi A4 Side

The Audi A4 is a medium-sized executive saloon that offers a luxurious interior design and a comfortable driving experience.

Having been a mainstay within the Audi model portfolio for decades, the A4 has cemented itself as one of the go-to choices for motorists wanting a saloon with a premium edge. And despite the competition, which includes the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the A4 continues to impress with each generation.

Reasons to consider a used Audi A4 as your next used car include:

  • Great choice of engines
  • Stunning cabin design
  • Spacious throughout
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Available with the brand's Quattro all-wheel system

Engines and Driving Experience

The A4 is immensely comfortable to travel in thanks to its soft suspension and light steering. There is plenty of grip when you need it, which is further enhanced in models fitted with Audi's legendary Quattro all-wheel drive system.

Petrol

  • 35 TFSI: 2.0-litre producing 148bhp (0 to 62mph in 8.6 seconds and up to 46.3mpg)
  • 40 TFSI: 2.0-litre producing 187bhp (0 to 62mph in 7.1 seconds and up to 44.8mpg)
  • 45 TFSI: 2.0-litre producing 242bhp (0 to 62mph in 5.5 seconds and up to 35.3mpg)

Diesel

  • 30 TDI: 2.0-litre producing 134bhp (0 to 62mph in 9.5 seconds and up to 60.1mpg)
  • 35 TDI: 2.0-litre producing 161bhp (0 to 62mph in 8.2 seconds and up to 58.9mpg)
  • 40 TDI: 2.0-litre producing 201bhp (0 to 62mph in 6.9 seconds and up to 54.3mpg)

A manual gearbox is standard fit on most of the models above, although some of them come with the choice between a conventional 8-speed automatic and a clever 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Practicality and Running Costs

Audi A4 rear seats

The generation of A4 you see here is slightly bigger than the previous model, which has translated to more head and legroom inside. You can choose between a traditional saloon bodystyle, or an estate (Audi call it an Avant).

With 480 litres, the A4's boot is more than big enough for day-to-day life. As you would expect, the rear seats can fold flat to create a bigger loading space, which is ideal for tip runs. If you want more room, then the Avant offers a larger, 505-litre, boot that benefits from a wider opening for maximum convenience.

Annual premiums should not be too bad despite the A4's size and value. Very few of the quicker models exceed insurance group 30 (50 is the highest), while lower-powered variants hover around groups in the low 20s. Routine servicing is available at your local Stratstone Audi dealership.

Interior, Technology, and Safety

Audi A4 interior

Audi excel when it comes to interior design and the A4 is no exception. Quality materials feature throughout the cabin, while the ergonomic design provides instant familiarity.

The entry-level model is called the Technik, and gets LED headlights, three-zone climate control, a rear-view camera and satellite navigation. Take it up a level, to the Sport Edition, and you will benefit from 18-inch alloy wheels, a black styling pack and retuned suspension.

If you want something sportier then you can go for the S line, which gets lowered suspension and larger, 19-inch, alloy wheels with sports seats inside. Top-spec Vorsprung examples are desirable because they come with adaptive suspension, a sunroof and Matrix LED headlights.

The Audi A4 comes with the following driver aids and safety features:

  • Keyless go
  • Hill-hold assist
  • Multi-collision brake assist
  • Electronic Stabilisation Control (ESC)
  • Parking System Plus (front and rear parking sensors)

Is the Audi A4 right for me?

If you are looking to get behind the wheel of a premium executive saloon (or estate) that is loaded with great kit and is immensely refined, then the Audi A4 is up there with the best. If you find yourself needing something larger than the A4, we would recommend taking a look at the A6, which is essentially its bigger sibling.

While you should look at the aforementioned BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class if you are in the market for this kind of car, they are not the only options available. For example, there is the brilliant Jaguar XE.
