A buyer's checks

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.

Under the hood

The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. 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. In money, 1,000 km costs about $124 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Living with the A4

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA lists 340 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who rents the A4

Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

A longer test drive

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the A4 answers more than any brochure. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.40 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $124 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Choosing the right one

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. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
