Recalls and complaints

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, tires and air bags; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The numbers in plain words

The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. 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.

Its combined rating is 8.0 L/100 km, which means roughly 24 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $124 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.

When the A4 makes sense

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country.

Practical details

As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA lists 340 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Drive it on your own roads

Try the A4 on your commute, then decide. If the A4 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Narrowing it down

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. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

What it costs to run

The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.40 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $124 at our price setting.
