The 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Before you sign for the A4

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

Specs, explained

Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

It is rated 7.9 L/100 km combined: about 24 litres every 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $41.49 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.

A good match for

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

What the A4 is like

As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.76 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. EPA lists 368 litres of luggage space, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Rent it for a week first

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the A4 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A test week in the A4 tells you more than any review.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.83 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
