I compared the A4 Quattro to the Mercedes C, BMW 3 series, Lexus and Volvo. The Audi does everything so well that I couldn’t find much to complain about. 0 to 60 in 5.3 seconds With 40mpg’s highway is great. The DSG transmission is incredible with smooth crisp Shifting between gears. Consumer reports gives the A4 a very high rating that’s top in its class with excellent reliability for the last four years since this new style was released. The LED headlights are amazing, they even shine into turns Lighting the way. Top pick in crash tests too. Update: I’m still very happy with my Audi A4 Quattro. It’s been trouble free with only Oil & Filter changes done as required. Winter driving this year has only given me more praise by the way this car handles the worst weather conditions getting me home safely while I see other makes stuck in snow and icy roads. Update: this A4 has been trouble free, only trips to dealer are for scheduled oil& filter changes. Love this car more and more. Excellent MPGs and great performance. Update: My A4 has been 100% trouble free and I still enjoy it very much. Update: 93,000 miles and its been the best car I've ever owned. Had a recall for the seat heater switch in passenger seat other than that just regular oil & Filter changes and one Transmission fluid change. Still drives like a new car.

Luxury is in the details.

There are so many cars out there that selecting one can be a daunting task. So, first and foremost, you need to know what you are looking for. I bought my A4 2020, 2 months ago, and while it is a short time, I hope help someone who might be struggling with the decision to buy one. It is a great car, but it is not an out of the world car. You will hear many people say that Audi cars are endless money pits, that they don't age well, they require a lot of maintenance, that repair costs are high, a lot of depreciation, etc. I don't know if all this is true (except depreciation), but if you are concerned about such opinions, this car is not for you. If you are willing to pay the price, you will get a wonderfully crafted interior (one of the.most beautiful in my opinion), audi ownership prestige, amazing driving experience, smart security features and happiness. It sounds materialistic but once you have worked hard enough for something, you deserve to treat yourself. :) Features available in this car are also available in other cars and one may think that why do they need to pay 45k for this car when they can get the same features in a 25k car. To answer that, if you are someone who appreciates the little details, you will appreciate Audi, else you will feel that it is a waste of money.

A4 — Safety, Technology, Power, Good Looks!

‘21 A4 45 Premium + S-Line offers top safety ratings, amazing tech, a responsive and efficient power plant as well as good looks. What’s not to love! This is my third consecutive Audi; its bespoke cabin is a refuge at days end. 3D Bang/Olufsen sound is transformative. Team Ingolstadt hit a home run with this conveyance, most assuredly!

Great handling and very good acceleration and braking. The driving is secure around corners and on wet roads. The dynamic cruise control is a nice feature as well in highway driving. I've had cruise control on other vehicles, but for the most part never use it. With the 2021 A4, the dynamic cruise control feature does a very good job of adjusting speeds to the flow of the traffic -- also it seems to be a great way to optimize fuel economy in highway driving. In terms of interior comfort and features, the car is outstanding for the driver and front passenger. In addition to getting a new car, I also made a point of upgrading my cellphone. I thought about getting the technology package and navigation, but have been very satisfied with Android Auto on a new Samsung phone. The new phone adds value to the car, and the car's ability to make use of the new phone's features, adds value to the phone. I've found every excuse in recent weeks to take the car out on the road. There was a bit of a learning curve in the first few days as a first-time Audi owner, but the car really grows on you, things become much more intuitive after using the car for a few days. Even after reading the owner's manual front and back and nearly a month of ownership, I'm still discovering cool new features related to the way the car operates and integration with the phone and Audi app. Even with the more powerful engine, I have been getting good mileage too driving in Dynamic mode. e.g. up to 40 on the highway, 26 in town, about 28 overall. The only real downside is the relatively small backseat. The rear seat is made of fine materials, but there's not a lot of head and leg room for people 6 foot or taller. Also, in warmer regions of the country, it is worth considering ventilated seats and a lighter colored vehicle. Overall though, it's a great car. A superb daily commuter and ideal for trips. ADDITIONAL NOTE TO ORIGINAL REVIEW: Have had car for nearly 7,000 miles, still working great. Winter handling has been superb on secondary roads that aren't regularly plowed. Car heating system generally works great -- seat heaters are excellent. Steering wheel heater isn't really noticeable, but the car warms up quickly so this isn't really a feature that I miss or use. In terms of general maintenance, I try to make sure to keep the various car sensors clean. It's worthwhile investing in a microfiber cloth for the task. Audi also has a window cleaning solution that you can buy through dealerships. As far as minor gripes go, some of the add-on technology features still seem to be in a beta test mode. e.g. the MyAudi app worked great initially, but after a software update this past Fall there were issues for a few weeks trying to communicate with the car. The MyAudi app isn't a really essential function to vehicle operation, but it's a secondary feature that is nice to have when it works. Also, Audi has some subscription services that you can purchase through the MyAudi App including a short-term licenses for Audi's built-in in-car navigation software. My experiences with it were a bit mixed. The add-on feature allows you to view navigation data on the driver display along with the other gauge clusters. Without the built-in navigation feature (or short-term license), the navigation data, via Android Auto or Apple Car Play, only displays on the touchscreen on the center console. Additionally, the short-term license includes things like weather radar, which are nice to have, but not essential for daily use. I tried the short-term licenses out for a couple months. The first month the functions worked great. The second month that I tried, they didn't. e.g. navigation in particular did not active properly in the second month. I have stuck to using Android Auto instead for daily use, which works great.

The A4 is A1

I bought this car roughly three weeks ago. Since then, all of my great first impressions have held up and then some. What drew me most to this car was the interior (because that is a huge factor for me, aside from driving experience) and it has not disappointed. It is comfortable and filled with great features. The drive has been fantastic. I have the 45 engine (~250 HP). The steering feels fluid, yet accurate. The ride is nice and smooth with limited outside noise pouring into the cabin. It is a wonderfully balanced experience. You can either drive it casually and comfortably...or...you can put it into sport mode and dynamic suspension and really kick it into gear. In sport mode, the response from the engine is impressive and the car can really move. The car is fuel efficient! I'm averaging 25-28 with city driving and 27-30 with city/highway. It does require premium gas but that is a small price to pay for a fuel efficient luxury sedan. Best of all, it really is an eye-catcher. The interior is flawless but the exterior is also lovely no matter what angle you look at it from. My Audi came with the Audi ring lights that beam from the front doors onto the floor and has by far been one of the nicest and most complemented features. All in all, if you're looking for a beautiful luxury sedan, with fantastic modern technology and a terrific driving experience, the Audi A4 is one you should definitely consider.
