Audi A4, combining Luxury and Comfort
The Audi A4 is a great car. It's extremely reliable and has plenty of space but it still feels like a luxury car. The technology is incredible and very accessible. I've never had any issues with the A4 or any other Audi's. The leather seats are very comfortable and do not get overwhelmingly hot when outside. The space between the front row and back row of seats is perfect. The trunk space is deep and wide. All of my groceries FIT perfectly.

Audi a4: entry level luxury sedan.
Audi is a great option if you are looking for a luxury sedan. The a4 is the best of both worlds if you are looking for a model a little larger than the smaller a3, but not as large as the a7. The a4 also has a great price range if you are not looking to go all out on one the larger models in the a5 or a7 models. Highly recommend going with the quattro option as well.

Really enjoy the added features you can order with a new car
Fuel efficiency is right on spot. The car is comfortable and luxurious enough to always attract some looks wherever you go.

Love my Audi! I feel like I fit right into it. . Handles really well for me!
No problems with vehicle except that it is low to ground and a little tough to get out of sometimes. Love its performance, it is reliable and very comfortable. I love the dash, the verbal command options and the navigation is nice. Backup camera very crisp.

It is built to last longer than most American cars so it will last well past the payoff.
It's sporty. It rides well and is quiet. My dislikes are it is expensive and takes only premium m gas.

I love this car and its features.
This car has had no problems with anything. The reliability is very good because I have never had an issue with it. My favorite feature is that the car will tell you if you left your phone is the car. The car has comfy seats and nothing about it is bad.

Very different from any car I ever owned.
Easily the best machine I have owned or driven. The a4 is light on its feet and will simply outrun my former subie WRX and does not rob you of your dental fillings doing it. Fit and finish is excellent. I like the styling.2018 improvements make the purchase of the new a4 a solid investment that will provide enjoyment and a sense of pride for years to come. We recently replaced our 2009 a4 with 121,000 trouble free miles with a new 2018 a4 premium plus. Both cars are from Audi Tampa purchased and serviced there.

Audi has an excellent reputation for reliability and superior driving experience.
It's easy to use. If you need to travel quite a distance, it allows you to arrive quickly, rested, and neither too hold or cold. The system of the car is really great. You will not have to change the systems as often. Overall I would recommend this car to anyone!!

I think that there is an ok possibility in going to the thing where the thing is.
None there is a problem maybe with the thing and the guy at the repair shop was weird and annoying but the car is ok I guess.

Easy in the eyes and a comfortable ride.
It is a nice looking car. The radio and sound system is great. Comfortable cabin. Easy to clean and upkeep. Styling and handling is nice. Affordable and easy to manage. It handles on the road nicely. Can be used for business or pleasure. I would recommend my car to anyone who is looking for a stylish reliable car.

Good car overall with good performance.
It has only had one issue with the seat belt that was easily adjusted with a zip tie apparently. It has not had any performance issues, it is a good drive and has good speeding up ability. The car is red and has good ac, heated seats, but does not have a heated steering wheel. I wish for the winter it did because it would be nice with an automatic start.
accountCircle Andrew H
Check this out! Audi a4 is great.
This is a good car. The miles per gallon that it gets is great and it is a great car for commuting to work. Very expensive to maintain and insure through. I would recommend this car to a person who wants a good, safe car to drive around town in and who has a family.

The beginning of something great again is what I call my Audi a4.
My Audi is a beautiful prestigious SUV that has a strong of comfort that relaxes your body and my mind. Driving it makes me feel proud and confident. It is a well built machine. Most of all it is the road performance that get me excited about driving this car.

Audi a4 gives you high performance at a great value.
The 2018 Audi a4 is a sporty high performance vehicle but is also a good value. It is a consistently reliable option for those looking to enter the luxury vehicle market. It is comfortable and features the latest technological advances. I recommend this car and am considering renewing my lease for the same make and model.

It came with the sport package that has a virtual cockpit.
Overall, my vehicle is fine. One small problem I had was that it didn't have sensors which makes me extra cautious since I have a bad sense of depth perception. Another thing is that a few months into buying the car, the navigation system weirdly started flashing out of nowhere and I had to go to the dealership to get it fixed.

Audi a4 - pleasure to drive.
Best car I have ever owned. A pleasure to drive, and no major maintenance issues in the first couple of years. Great systems and beautiful fit and finish inside. The Audi mmi system with apple carplay is one of the better systems I have ever used in an auto.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Julie C.

It is expensive to repair if anything should go wrong with it. Putting the car in park is by pressing a button on the gear handle. Sometimes I have to double or triple check that the car is in park because they've made it too easy to put it in park by pressing the button.

dislikeFilled Benjamin B.

You are required to pay more to change to manual transmission compared to its competitors it is ridiculous. The handling can be troublesome as well if it is your first car, but I am pretty used to it, this is my second Audi.

dislikeFilled Pat D.

dislikeFilled Brandie K.

Comfortable to use, easy to use, beautiful to look, good security systems, high quality products, it is a hybrid car, it has four door, the inside seats are very comfortable, well - instructed, so that anyone can drive easily, the safety system is improved.

dislikeFilled Abby R.

There are not a single cons for my vehicle. But there is a problem that is there car is a sporty look and sporty model so we do not move with our full family for the model of the car. But it is a best car I ever seen before in my life.
