The 2017 Audi A4 is in a league of its own, literally. The elegant cruiser is the only luxury sedan in its segment to offer a manual transmission with all-wheel drive capability. And aside from this sporty distinction, the car gets plenty of upgrades for 2017.
For the current model year, the 2017 A4 has been completely redesigned. The car’s most notable upgrades include an all-new interior design, new technology and enhanced safety features. On the outside, the car looks much like the previous version, however, it now sports a more trapezoidal grille and cleaner lines that replace the old curvy ones.
The biggest improvements can be found inside the car. They include a revised MMI infotainment system, new dash-top screen and available Virtual Cockpit gauges.
Underneath the hood, the A4 features a new 2.0-liter turbocharger that gives it 32 more horses than what it previously had. Equipped with Audi’s six-speed manual transmission, the A4 can skyrocket from 0-60 mph in just 5.7 seconds, an improvement of 0.7 seconds over its predecessor. The car also dropped 35.3 pounds, giving it a better power-to-weight ratio for improved performance.
Powered by a 2.0 TFSI engine which produces 252 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque, the new A4 will get you where you need to go in a hurry. The car is also available with a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch automatic transmission. This drivetrain can be paired with front-wheel drive or available quattro all-wheel drive.
A frontal collision mitigation system comes standard on all A4 models, while rear collision mitigation and blind-spot monitoring are included in the Technology package.
