Before you sign for the A4

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. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, tires and air bags; have those parts checked.

The numbers in plain words

The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, paired with a 7-speed automatic, drives it. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

By the EPA's combined rating of 8.0 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 24 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $37.20 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

The A4 in everyday use

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 340 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A good match for

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Rent the A4 for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Drive the A4 on your commute before you commit to it.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Choosing the right one

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