Recalls and complaints

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, tires and air bags; have those parts checked.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

Fuel use is rated 8.0 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 24 litres. That works out to about $12.40 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 340 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Best uses

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A test week in the A4 tells you more than any review. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $124 at our price setting.

Choosing the right one

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Next step

Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
