Audi A4 Review Summary
"Safety features include a comprehensive array of airbags and full-coverage side air curtains as standard equipment."
"It joyfully tackles twisting roads, taking every turn in stride. Despite a taut suspension, the ride is magnificent on smooth roads and recovery is swift when you hit a bump. Ride quality is nearly as good with the available sport suspension."
"The A4 sedan's trunk offers a usably shaped 13.4 cubic feet of space, enough to hold a pair of golf bags. Center pass-through and folding, split rear seats provide added room."
"The new A4's interior is typical Audi--clean and well crafted."
What reviewers liked least about the Audi A4:
"It's generally adequate in front but somewhat limited in rear leg room. This is not a car for the full-figured or for people much taller than six feet."
"Its adjustable tabs accommodate larger beverage containers, but accessing them from the driver's seat requires a bit of carpal gymnastics and if you want to carry two cups, you forfeit the ability to use the fold-down center console armrest."
"Passing attempts at low speeds, however, sometimes yield a shortfall of response. You hear a little engine noise while accelerating with the CVT, but not much."
Audi A4 Comparisons:
"...the manual gearbox, though not BMW crisp, provides plenty of entertainment for double-clutching downshifters."
"The A4 is luxurious, sporty, winterproof and a few grand cheaper than BMW's 3 Series."
Best one-liners about the Audi A4:
"The engine is so good, it begs the question: 'Could Audi have gotten away with not offering a V-6 option at all?"
"Love or hate the front-end styling, you'll develop instant affection for the two new jewels under the hood."
