2020 Audi A4 Sedan

The much-loved Audi A4 wears its angular and athletic skin well. The trapezoidal "Singlegrame" grille dominates the front end, while defined wheel arches grace the sides and a distinctive shoulder line begins at the hood, runs the length of the A4 and ends at the tail. The A4 comes in both sedan and wagon-styled "allroad." The allroad offers a slightly lifted suspension for more wheel travel, none of which compromises the Audi's handling. In wagon form, almost 60 cubic feet of cargo space becomes available compared to the sedan's 13 cubic feet. A 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder powers the A4, making 248 horsepower and 273 lb-feet of torque. It runs that power through a 7-speed dual-clutch S tronic automatic transmission and can drive either the front or all four wheels when equipped with Audi's famous quattro all-wheel-drive system. Quattro utilizes a locking center differential and wheel selective torque control technology, which ensures that the wheels that need the most power receive it. The S4 meanwhile, comes with a 3.0L turbocharged V6 making 349 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. The gearbox is also different, as the S4 sends power to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic. Audi claims a 0-60 time of just 4.4 seconds for the high powered S4. Audi Drive Select provides four modes for total control: comfort, auto, dynamic and individual. Each mode gives the driver control over transmission shift points, as well as steering assistance and damper control. The A4 is available in Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige trims.
