I bought the prestige over the premium because i wanted the driver assist option. i compared to Bmw 3 and 4 series and Mercedes c class. Audi was my preferred choice for overall driving experience and amenities. The driver assistance program is very good if you have to do a lot of driving in congested traffic - takes a bit of getting used to but very helpful

Great value for this segment; hits the sweet spot

This car is the best combination of value, luxury and sportiness in this segment. The performance is surprising given the comfort and luxury. The cost is competitive when factoring in all that you get. A must drive if you are looking for an entry-level sport-luxury car.

Love my car

This is my first Audi. Before buying I drove a BMW 328i xdrive and a Mercedes c class. They were all very nice cars but I fell for the Audi and love it. Most of the complaints that I read are about the shifter and the way you have to put it in Park, but I think that Audi got that right. It is easy and intuitive. I don't understand the people that complain about it. It works so much better than the conventional system. It is so quiet inside. The ride is fantastic. Handles great. My son borrowed it for a couple days. He told me that on his way home from work he found himself taking the longest route available so he could just drive it longer. It's the first car I've had that when I have nothing to do, I just take it and go for a drive.

First Sedan in 20 Years!

In 2011, I was beginning to look around for a new car, I liked what I drove, but no longer needed a mini-van or a crossover. Test drove a BMW and a Ford. The Expedition wasn't any thing special, and the BMW salesman was so snooty that wouldn't have bought a soda from him. My husband suggesting looking at the Audi dealership. I wasn't too thrilled, he had a 1985 Audi when we first married, and it wasn't very reliable. Imagine my surprise when I test drove a 2012 Q5. It was fabulous, never had any trouble with it, decent gas mileage and was fun to drive. After 4.5 years with my Q5 I felt like it was time to trade it in while I had a lot of equity in it (Retained its value very well ) The new A4 was just starting to be talked about. I test drove one of the first ones my dealership got, and feel in love. It handles exceptionally well, I can zip around those land yachts! I am equally impressed with the gas mileage - about 30 mpg in mixed trips. It is a different feeling getting in a car lower than a SUV, but I have gotten used to it. Very pleased with this model.

After owning 3 Acura's in the past 12+ years, I've now had my 2017 A4 Premium Plus for about a month now. The shifter is confusing but this car is such a dream to drive, I'm long past it. So far, with 2K miles on the car, my long term average is over 32 MPG. Put this baby into sport mode and the 7 speed automated manual transmission will put a smile of your face every time! The sound system is amazing and the cockpit is whisper quiet. The virtual cockpit makes this one of the coolest, most advanced interiors on the market This is my first 4 cyl car in a long time and I'm completely impressed! I drove every competitor before choosing this and nothing could compare. I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about this beauty.

Do Not Get the Aluminum Decorative Inlay

I can't believe Audi came up with this Aluminum thing. When the sun hits it, it gets so glaring. And of course, around midday, the sun will surely hit it because the Audi design is so aerodynamic. This Aluminum thing reminds me of a similar design that Honda came up with about 12 years ago for its Civic. That was glaring too. But Honda dropped it. But Audi caught it and put it on its A4?? So I recommend paying extra for the dark wood or brown wood. About everything else, A4 is completely redesigned. I'm quite happy. I may write an update in 6 months.

I have always been interested in owning an A4. The new 2017 A4 prestige meets my vehicle requirements at this time. It is sporty, fun to drive, packed with safety features and looks great! My A4 has the head up display, sport, technology, and warm and cold weather package. The interior is trimmed with burl wood and the door exit lighting includes the Audi beam ring projectors. The virtual cockpit is awesome!!!!! It consists of google maps and google earth. Gas mileage is very good. Audi packed a lot of technology into the 2017 A4.

I've had my 2017 A4 quattro Prestige for 3 weeks now. I love this car. First time I've had an Audi I'm coming out of a 2014 BMW 428i coupe. This car is light years ahead of the BMW in terms of technology. The car my dealer had on the lot had the full tech and driver assistance packages. I wasn't planning to get all of these features but I got a great price on the car and I do love the features. The heads-up display is awesome. I love the highly customizable LED interior lighting too. The virtual cockpit along with large center screen are so amazingly clear and easy to use. I love how well thought out the graphics are. The fit and finish inside is very good everything from the paint finish to the seams inside and out. No rattles or anything. The front seats (which my car has the warm weather package and in Florida that's a must) are very comfortable. Love the design, headlights, tail lights, grille, wheels on my Prestige with gray/silver 2 tone. This car looks so sharp, literally. If I had to give anything that could use improvement, and this is really hard, I'd say: the bang and olufsen stereo doesn't sound as good as my Harman Kardon system in my BMW. I've played with the sound settings and when playing certain songs on the radio there's a 'tinny' sound to mid and high tones I can't get rid of. Only other thing is the sport seat any model has the side bolsters on the lower cushion are hard to come into contact with while entering the car. I hope over time these don't show premature wear and tear. But, as a 6'3" driver I have plenty of room in this car both leg and headroom. The trunk is spacious too and I love the 40/40/20 split folding seats. This probably won't be my last Audi based on my experience this far!

so far, so good. I got the S-Line, Premium Plus package and am very happy with it. Quality it top notch inside and out. No issues at all, though I've only had it for a month and about 1500 miles.

I am brand new to Audi. I recently just purchased the all new A4 back in May. This car is a total blast to drive! I couldn't be any happier with the performance and quality.

I test drove a lot of cars (3-series, C300, GLC, XC60, Mazda6, Mini Clubman) before choosing the 2017 A4 and so far, I really enjoy the car. Right now, I think it offers the best mix of tech, performance and luxury in the class, at least until the next 3-series or whatever leapfrogs it. Pros: - The tech goodies are really impressive. Virtual Cockpit is fantastic and having the nav right in front of you in a huge display is actually very useful. It's easy to learn the basic functions of the infotainment system, but it is worth the time to dig deeper and really understand all the different ways you can customize the experience. It makes the car a lot more enjoyable. Even with all the tech, the usability is much better than Mercedes and Lexus. Honestly, you really need to get the technology package to get the best out of this car. - Beyond the gadgets, this is a very good driver's car. Acceleration and braking are very strong, especially with quattro. The ride is firm but controlled. The steering is lighter than I would prefer though. - The interior is not as rich as the C-Class and the GLC, but the materials are high quality, visibility is excellent and the look is very clean and modern. I am 6'2" with really broad shoulders and size 14 feet, and I have enough head and legroom in the front. I did not fit well at all in the C300, IS and Jaguar XE. The 3 series also has a pretty roomy cabin. - It doesn't use run-flats and has an actual spare tire. I never cared until my wife and I both had flats last year. I had a spare tire. She didn't. I was able to get moving again. She had to get towed. Enough said. Cons: - Setting up the AudiConnect trial was a pain that required multiple phone calls and websites. I was told there were issues with both the new A4 and Q7. I work in tech, so I was able to muddle through this and get everything set up, but Audi really needs to improve the process. - Exterior styling is handsome, but too much like the last generation A4 and the current A3. It's really difficult to tell them apart at first glance. It would have been nice if the new A4 was a little more distinctive - Interior storage could be better. I love the adjustable center armrest, which seems to be a VW/Audi signature, but it doesn't fully cover the compartment, so you can't store anything showy in there. The glovebox is also very small, but at least there is a deep compartment next to the steering wheel that can hold a decent amount of items. - I wish you didn't have to pony up for the Prestige package to get the additional driver assist package. LA traffic would be a little less annoying with the dynamic cruise control, but cost aside, Prestige models are almost impossible to find on dealer lots right now, and good luck getting a color other than black or white. - With all the new tech, I hope long-term reliability isn't an issue.

From a 328 xi to my new A4!

First of all, let me tell you that I loved driving my 2013 BMW 328xi, it was a fully loaded sports edition car, loved the acceleration, handling and looks! my only issue with it are the run flat tires that after 30K miles starter making a noise comparable to a bad bearing, but even with that, since my lease was coming to an end, the shopping began and I was certain I was going to get another BMW. Although this time was not as crazy to get the fully loaded version since there where soooooo many features that I've never used and just payed for them any ways, this time around I was just looking for the car with the features I enjoy: Moon roof, sports wheels, heated seats, leather interiors, and that is it. Obviously, BMW car dealers only had cars with most of the high end stuff and even that we were able to find the right car, the price tag was high since wanted to stick to the 240 Hp of the 328 vs the 180hp of the 320. My wife owns an Audi Q5 and we happened to be in the dealer for a service and started to look around the brand new Audi A4 and learned about the upgrades on the design and technology and fell in love with the new car. This model comes with a 252hp engine, 0-60 in 5.8 sec and driving modes that made me forgot my intentions to buy another BMW. Some of the Pros that I see vs BMW: 1. Tires (of course) 2. Value. you get a 328 kind of performance with a 320 price tag 3. Car play. Love the integration with your smart phone 4. Space. 5. The premium model it was perfectly packed to my needs, only thing I didn't need but is included is the rear view camera and got a credit for its cost! 6. More comfortable than the BMW. Although sporty, it rides extremely well! The only minor thing that I have notice is that there is a little bit of reaction time when you press the accelerator, but once is going is pretty amazing. 3 years ago I test drove an A4 before getting my 328 and there were not even close, and while purist may say that BMW performance is better I will say that you get 95% of the BMW with 85% of the cost which to me is a pretty good value for your money

Great but could use a few convenience items

First off, the car is great. I have put on a couple thousand miles and have been pretty happy so far. I do have a few gripes. I'm coming from a 2008 RAV4 so this is my baseline. Glove box is very small. Yes there is a CD player in there but still...it's kind of worthless for storage. That said, storage is pretty much non-existent. The RAV4 has a bunch of compartments for all my stuff. The A4 has nothing other than the glove box. No sunglasses holder. I can't put a large Gatorade bottle in the cup holder unless I put it upside down. My RAV has a removable rubber cup holder insert so I can put the bigger bottle in it. Side pockets are small as well. The interior is otherwise well done. Gas mileage is great. Performance is excellent. Stock tires are quiet but do not seem very grippy when pushing it. Overall very happy with my purchase, albeit with a couple of complaints.

The new A4 is not flashy. But it is luxurious and competent. Steering is precise, braking excellent, and power is more than sufficient. The car is a joy to drive - quiet and comfortable.

A complete redesigned A4 reaches new levels of technology and luxury. The technology in this winner is state of the art. I almost feel like I need to go back to school and get an IT degree to get the most out of this amazing vehicle. Apple Car Play works like a charm the minute you plug into the designated USB port in the glove box. For you Android people it also handles Google Play (or whatever the comparable technology is named). The ability to load the Nav system where you would normally find your speed and RPM dials gives you the feel that you are the pilot in a 747. Speaking of the Nav system it is the best of any vehicle I have ever owned or system used. That includes Honda, Acura and Garmin. So many electronic gadgets that I urge you to check out this magnificent machine online. I am also surprised at how well it does on mpg -- I got 31.5 on highway driving. I'm sure that will even improve on a longer trip. Very pleased with this purchase. My sales rep at Audi Natick, Kevin Schuster, was great. Only drawback is it takes premium fuel, but with this high performance engine it's worth it. The 2017 A4 is a winner in every way.

The new A4 design is a redesigned automobile based somewhat on the Audi Q7 cabinet. Audi was smart enough to keep somewhat of the same exterior design. They were smart enough to add technology to the interior cabinet in place of big outside body changes. With that said, the inside cabinet has totally changed - for the BETTER. There is more room and comfort, better placement of hand controls, a well-placed cup holder, and three very smart user display areas across the center console, driver dashboard, and windshield . Compared to the previous model, it is a comfortable rocketship with added safely technology and conveniences surrounding the entire cabinet, including the heated back seats. The only big drawback is the Apple CarPlay needs to be connected via a cable and not via wireless bluetooth. Yes, we are Apple iPhone users. Another concern is BMW, Mercedes, and other car manufacturers moving away from Apple, since they are supposedly building their own car line. My questions are: will Audi stay up-to-date with Apple upgrades and changes, or move away? And even if they stay with Apple or Android, can these new designs - Apple CarPlay and their GPS accept a software upgrade? In regards to the new A4, I would recommend it. The changes are enough to get me to the showroom. Hats off to the online marketing department. In regard to price, it is pricer with all the new option stuff. In closing, I will probably buy one in June because my wife loves her A4, I love her, and it's time to trade up. Good luck with the car hunting!
