    Audi A4 [2016-2020] 30 TFSI Technology Pack Review

    When Audi launched the brand-new A4 in the petrol variant last year we were really impressed by its all-round ability. Thanks to a more able chassis, the new generation A4 was much nicer to drive than its predecessor and the modern cabin with its ultra-crisp virtual cockpit system just blew us away. With the recent arrival of the diesel variant, the A4 now has a complete portfolio. Time for a full-fledged road test then, since there is no better way to judge its true potential than putting both the petrol and diesel versions through our rigorous testing regime. So we let the numbers decide just how good the new A4 really is.

    Introduction

    When Audi launched the brand-new A4 in the petrol variant last year we were really impressed by its all-round ability. Thanks to a more able chassis, the new generation A4 was much nicer to drive than its predecessor and the modern cabin with its ultra-crisp virtual cockpit system just blew us away. With the recent arrival of the diesel variant, the A4 now has a complete portfolio. Time for a full-fledged road test then, since there is no better way to judge its true potential than putting both the petrol and diesel versions through our rigorous testing regime. So we let the numbers decide just how good the new A4 really is.

    Design and Style

    Like with most German cars, the B9 A4 is more evolutionary than revolutionary as far as looks are concerned. But there are adequate number of elements that make the new car stand out from the old one. The A4 now gets a TT-inspired lower and aggressive front end, which is flanked by an angular bumper. Like with all Audi’s, the full LED headlamps are beautifully detailed and the snazzy daytime running strips lend character to it. The strong shoulder line which stretches all the way from the headlamps to the tail lamps gives it a sporty stance, but the five spoke wheels look far too simple and lack flair. At the rear the tail lamps are stylish and the new A4 looks well-proportioned when viewed from any angle.

    Underneath, the new A4 is based on the MLB evo platform which also underpins the recently launched Q7. Like with all modern luxury sedans, the A4 is an extreme exercise of weight saving couple with maximum efficiency. The new A4, in fact, is the lightest in its segment, thanks to Audi’s considerable use of lightweight materials to build this car. The use of expensive magnesium in the steering and transmission components and the rear-seat structure are proof of that. Audi has used lot of aluminium too - bonnet, doors and the boot lid are of aluminium. The multilink front and rear suspension incorporate a large amount of this silvery-white metal. This has helped Audi shave a massive 95kg off the A4 despite it being 25mm longer and 16mm wider. The petrol variant now uses a smaller 1.4-litre motor which weighs less than 100kg. The raised-for-India suspension on the A4 doesn’t get adaptive dampers. As a result, the three driving modes you choose through the Drive Select buttons, alters just the steering, engine and gearbox.

    Interiors

    But the surprise package of the new A4 lies inside, where you are welcomed by a cabin which is hard to fault aesthetically. Where rivals like the Mercedes C-class exudes elegance and the BMW 3-series practices conservatism, the new A4’s dash looks sci-fi. The horizontal lines dominate, right down to the thin air vents that span the entire width of the dash panel which dupes you into thinking that the car is much wider than it actually is. The wood finish underneath the vents adds a traditional touch to an otherwise snazzy cabin. The air-con controls and knobs are finished in matt chrome and the knurled texture feels very classy every time you operate them. The dash design is based on Audi’s superb Virtual Cockpit theme also seen on the Audi Q7. While you get a conventional high-res MMI screen on top of the dash, the one that sits in place of the conventional instruments makes you feel like Tony Stark inside the ironman suit. All the information you would ever need is right in front of your eyes and the screen resolution and graphics are just unrivalled. The 12.3-inch TFT display can be switched between two different user interfaces. In ‘Infotainment’ mode, a central window dominates the view, providing a large stage for the navigation map or for lists in the phone, radio and audio areas. 

    The longer wheelbase and width also means that the new A4 has more room on offer on the inside. The big front seats offer generous shoulder and lateral support with just the right amount of suppleness. But it’s at the rear that the new A4 has improved the most. Thanks to the high roof, sliding into the backseat is easy and once in, you will really appreciate the extent of knee-room and width available to you. Since you will be sitting at a good height, visibility from the back is great and thanks to the light beige leather seats, the ambiance is airy and pleasing. In addition, thigh support is fantastic, the backrest is supportive and, unlike the earlier car, there’s plenty of room for your feet as well. The boot too, at 480litres, is big enough and unlike in the BMW and the Merc, the space saver is neatly tucked away and doesn’t eat up into the luggage area. 

     

    Safety and Equipment

    The petrol engine comes in two variants whereas the diesel comes only in the fully loaded guise. It comes with Audi’s brilliant virtual cockpit system, MMI system with a touchpad, three zone climate control, mobile mirroring, wireless charging, DVD changer, two USB ports, powered front seats, electronic parking brake, reversing camera with front and rear parking sensors, ABS, ESP and 8 airbags. On the other hand, features like rear sun blind and auto park assist were missing from this car.

    Engine, Performance and Braking

    Let’s start with the diesel engine first. The diesel variant of the new A4 is powered by the same EA288 1968cc four-cylinder turbo-diesel motor as the old car, but its power and torque rating have taken a huge jump and the new A4 diesel now makes a healthy 188bhp and 400Nm of torque. The block is made from heavy cast iron which should help in refinement thanks to the dense metal. 

    The extra oomph makes the engine feel more flexible and a wider power band means there is more than enough grunt in any given condition. Refinement is very good, performance is ample and this, coupled with the car’s ride, will make it a fine all-purpose machine. The 7-speed dual clutch transmission works really well in tandem and makes full use of the higher power on tap. It responds quickly to the change in position of your right foot at all times and ensures that you are in the meat of the power band. But at lower speeds it does tend to get confused, which results in jerky progress at times. In Comfort mode, it does feel much smoother but here too smoother throttle inputs are recommended. This is where rivals with torque converter transmissions have an edge. 

    Thanks to the ample power on tap, the A4 diesel posted brisk times against the clock. Despite the A4 bogging down during standstill acceleration tests (the dual clutch gearbox goes into safe mode) it posted a quick time of 7.91 seconds to 100kmph. Thanks to the quick witted transmission, the drivability times of 4.57 seconds for 20-80kmph and 5.79 seconds for 40-100kmph are really impressive.

    The petrol variant on the other hand displaces a miniscule 1.4 litres which seems like a very surprising decision, considering rivals offer much larger petrol units. But with the new chassis, Audi has reduced weight considerably, which in turn has allowed it to give the new A4 a downsized engine. Displacing 1395cc, this turbocharged motor is from VW’s EA211 engine family and it develops 148bhp and 250Nm of torque. The high-tech motor is coupled to an equally modern DQ200 7-speed dual clutch automatic.   

    As soon as you step on the accelerator pedal the motor responds quite well and the A4 feels peppy at low speeds. Peak torque comes in at a low 1500rpm and past that, the mid-range is pretty strong and the engine will pull happily to its 6200rpm redline as well. Like with the diesel the petrol variant gets three driving modes – ‘Comfort’, ‘Dynamic’ and ‘Individual’. In ‘Comfort’, it is programmed to upshift at the earliest, maximising fuel efficiency, whereas in ‘Dynamic’, it will stay in the lowest gear possible. The problem with driving in ‘Comfort’ is that when you need that burst of power, you are usually in a gear too high and have to wait for the gearbox to kick down. ‘Dynamic’ is more responsive but the throttle response becomes too jerky to our liking. 

    Sure the 0-100kmph time of 9.06 second is decent but, it can’t match its main rivals as far as outright performance is concerned. You also have to work the motor hard to get the best out of it. While the engine is very quiet and smooth at low and cruising speeds, it does get a bit thrummy after 5000rpm, and it isn’t as smooth as say, the bigger 1.8 TSI motor in the old car was.

    Ride and Handling

    The real sense of luxury in the A4 comes from its suspension setup. At town speeds the A4 simply excels thanks to its absorbent low speed ride, delivered despite the low profile 17 inch tyres. Well-judged spring rates help this German saloon feel supple yet well controlled. Even over rutted surfaces the suspension has a surprisingly good level of crash-free bump absorption and you don’t feel most of its imperfections. Yes, there is some firmness at low speeds but it never gets to the point of feeling uncomfortable. Even at higher speeds the A4 shows good composure and this makes it a soothing highway companion. The car also does an excellent job of cutting out road noise, but at higher speeds you do get a bit of wind noise around the A-pillars.

    Where the old car used to feel loose and nervous at high speeds, the new A4 feels rock solid and straight-line stability is exceptional. The A4 changes direction quite eagerly too, but it isn’t particularly engaging to drive. The steering is smooth and accurate but is merely a tool for pointing the front wheels - not gaining any kind of feel for the tyre or road interface. It feels a bit vague at higher speeds too.

    Price and Fuel Economy

    Thanks to the lighter kerb weight and modern dual clutch transmission, the A4 diesel returned some really impressive figures. It returned 11.5kmpl in the city and an equally impressive 16kmpl on the highway. This gives it an impressive range of 630km thanks to the large 54 litre fuel tank. The downsized petrol motor was impressive too. It returned 10.1kmpl and 15.8kmpl for the city and highway runs respectively.

    The prices for the A4 start from Rs 38.1 lakh (ex-Delhi) for the base petrol and go all the way up to Rs 41.2 lakh for the top variant. The Diesel comes in only one variant and it is surprisingly cheaper than the petrol variant with a price tag of Rs 40.2 lakh. Despite being lavishly equipped, the A4 undercuts its German rivals by a considerable margin which makes it great value-for-money.

        Specifications

        • Engine & Transmission

          • Engine
            1395 cc, 4 Cylinders Inline, 4 Valves/Cylinder, DOHC

            Timely services will keep a motor efficient and in top shape.

          • Fuel Type
            Petrol

            All cars in India either run on petrol, diesel, CNG, LPG or electric power.

          • Max Power (bhp@rpm)
            148 bhp @ 5000 rpm

            Gives a good idea of the performance of the vehicle under full thrust. A higher figure here usually means a higher top speed as well.

            Higher the power, the peppier the engine but it can also affect fuel economy.

          • Max Torque (Nm@rpm)
            250 Nm @ 1500 rpm

            Relates to in-gear acceleration. A higher figure here means better roll-on acceleration, fewer gear shifts, and possibly better fuel efficiency.

            The more torque at low RPM range makes the engine feel more responsive. It also allows the engine to run smoothly without too many gear changes.

          • Mileage (ARAI)
            17.84 kmpl

            This is the maximum fuel efficiency that an engine gives. All numbers are provided by the manufacturer based on tests conducted and specified by the standards of the ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India)

            Such fuel efficiency attained while driving in special conditions makes it unlikely to get it in real-world conditions

          • Drivetrain
            FWD

            Cars come with different drivetrain configurations depending on the segment.

            Front-wheel drive (FWD) is most common in mainstream cars while expensive cars or SUVs come with rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD).

          • Transmission
            Automatic - 7 Gears, Manual Override, Sport Mode

            Type of transmission used to transfer power from the engine to the wheels

            A manually operated transmission is the most popular type, thanks to its simplicity and low cost. Varied types of automatic transmissions are also available.

          • Emission Standard
            BS 4

            Set by the Indian Government, this governs the amount of air pollutants released by cars to make the atmosphere safer for humans.

          • Turbocharger / Supercharger
            Turbocharged

            Manufacturers today offer turbochargers to boost engine power without affecting its fuel economy. Superchargers are found in more expensive cars but on the downside, they are not very efficient.

            Turbochargers are more effective but require plenty of heat management. Superchargers, meanwhile, offer linear bump in power but they are comparatively more complex.

          • Others
            Idle Start/Stop
        • Dimensions & Weight

          • Length
            4726 mm

            The length of the car decides its segment. In India, cars that are less than 4 metres in length enjoy reduced excise duties.

            Length
            • Length: 4726

            Longer length results in more cabin space. It also adds to straight line stability.

          • Width
            1842 mm

            A car's width is defined as its widest point without its mirrors.

            Width
            • Width: 1842

            Although more width gives you more lateral space inside the cabin, it makes the car more difficult to park in narrow spots.

          • Height
            1427 mm

            The height of the car denotes the highest point of the vehicle from the ground.

            Height
            • Height: 1427

            Taller the car, the more headroom there is on offer inside the cabin. However, a tall boy stance also affect the car’s centre of gravity which can cause more body roll.

          • Wheelbase
            2820 mm

            The space between the center of the front and rear wheels.

            Wheelbase
            • Wheelbase: 2820

            The longer the wheelbase, the more space there is inside the cabin.

          • Kerb Weight
            1450 kg

            The total weight of the vehicle with all the standard equipment and all the required fluids.

            A lightweight car will always be more efficient and easier to manoeuvre whereas a heavy car would give you a sense of solidity while driving.

        • Capacity

          • Doors
            4 Doors

            The number of doors define the category of car. For example – four door means sedan, two-door means coupe while five-doors usually refer to a hatchback, MPV or an SUV.

            Doors
            • Doors: 4
          • Seating Capacity
            5 Person

            The number of people that can be seated comfortably in the car, which has also been mandated by the car manufacturer.

            Seating Capacity
            • Seating Capacity: 5
          • No of Rows
            2 Rows

            Smaller cars usually have two rows which can seat five, but some SUVs and MPVs have three rows and can seat around 7-8 passengers.

          • Fuel Tank Capacity
            54 litres

            The official volume of the fuel tank of a car, usually denoted in litres.

            If a car has a large fuel tank, it can cover long distances without refuelling.

        • Suspensions, Brakes, Steering & Tyres

          • Front Suspension
            multi-link suspension with stabilizer bar and coil springs

            Almost all cars in India use an independent front suspension which is usually the MacPherson Strut type.

          • Rear Suspension
            multi-link suspension with stabilizer bar and coil springs

            The rear suspension can either be non-independent or independent.

            Most of the budget cars have non-independent suspension while the more expensive ones get independent rear suspension which offers better bump absorption.

          • Front Brake Type
            Disc

            Most of the vehicles sold in India get ventilated or non-ventilated disc brakes upfront.

            - The ventilated discs are more popular thanks to them providing better stopping power and it also works well in hot conditions.

          • Rear Brake Type
            Disc

            In affordable cars, drums brakes are fitted at the rear as they are cost effective.

            Disc setup at the rear is now getting more popular as cars are getting faster in the real world.

          • Minimum Turning Radius
            5.75 metres

            The official kerb-to-kerb minimum radius a car takes to complete a 180-degree turn.

            Shorter the turning radius, the lesser space you need to make a tight turn or to take a U-turn.

          • Steering Type
            Power assisted (Electric)

            Almost all steering systems in cars today have an assist to help park them better at low speeds - these can be hydraulic, electro-hydraulic or electric.

          • Wheels
            Alloy Wheels

            The wheels used on cars are either steel rims with plastic wheel cover hub or alloy wheels on higher spec models or expensive cars.

            Razor cut, or diamond cut alloy wheel design are not getting more popular. Manufacturers usually offer these in top-end trim of their car models.

          • Spare Wheel
            Alloy

            Important in a country with varying quality of roads, spare wheels ensure one doesn’t get stranded when one of the main tyres gets damaged.

            Select premium car models feature space savers (smaller than the stock wheels) to save on boot space.

          • Front Tyres
            225 / 50 R17

            The profile/dimension of rubber tyre that fits on the front wheels.

          • Rear Tyres

          It's been like a favourite vehicle company for me. Best experience for the car. Customer Service and even the responses were positive everyone should try this car. Once you drive this you won't touch another car.
