2018 Audi A4 All Road Wagon

Who said wagons were boring?

The automobile giant AUDI is all set to bring its all-new facelifted Audi A4 All Road Wagon to the US market. It comes with a 252 hp 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, which will give you all the power you need.

The transmission is a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic. It comes with a keyless start and a 7-inch infotainment system. A 10-speaker audio system is installed for the best audio experience.

The increased ground clearance, large cargo space, and standard all-wheel drive make it a joy to ride in difficult weather conditions. It has a panoramic sunroof, brake assist, and a power liftgate. The higher models come with a lane assist feature and cruise control.

A powerful dose of performance

The basic driving instinct would be similar to its sedan sister, the Audi A4, with an increase in traction and grip. The suspension is tuned to support the heavy load capacity of this beast so the passengers can have a safe and bump-free ride.

It comes with various drive modes like Off-road, comfort, and dynamic, which change the vehicle’s driving capabilities as per the need. The 252 horsepower 4-cylinder turbocharged engine gives you a massive torque of 273 lb-ft which is transmitted to all the wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. It catches the 60 mph speed in just 5.9 seconds.

A good place to be in

The all-new modern design of this beast cuts it above most other competitors. The modern dashboard and the advanced cockpit give it the class it deserves. The quality of the material used and the focus on details is just impeccable. The all-leather seating is a delight to look at.

The seats are now changed from normal to power-adjustable and ventilated with climate control. The leg room for the rear passengers is just massive and falling asleep won’t be a problem in this car. There are six cup holders provided in the car.

The interior is designed in such a way that minimum sound from outside penetrates it and it’s a quiet heaven inside the car. The body style gives a large cargo area to keep all the stuff when going for a family getaway.

Rugged to the core

The A4 All Road is easily identifiable because of the large hexagonal “Audi Exclusive” grill in the front. The aggressive lighting and the sharp slant of the tailgate make it the beast we expected it to be.

It is a bit shorter than its competitors like the Mercedes-Benz E400 and Volvo V90, which makes it slightly easier to control in tight spots. Its design is adapted less from a wagon and more from a new age’s Crossover.

A safe place for your loved ones

Safety is a major issue for every car manufacturer and Audi being the pioneer in the field, pays adequate attention to it.

The traction control of this car is well-designed to provide the necessary grip in all climatic conditions. The most important feature of ABS (Anti-Locking Braking System) is perfectly applied in this car.

Stability control is used which senses the vehicle’s handling limits and reduces the engine power to prevent losing control. It even assists in breaking when it senses that the vehicle is about to collide. Front-impact airbags are provided for the driver and the passenger.

Side-impact airbags, overhead airbags, and knee airbags are also provided to increase the safety level for all the passengers sitting in the car. To increase security, a system is applied because of which the airbags won’t deploy unless the seatbelt is on.

Final Verdict

In 2018 Audi updated their All Road Wagons for a different purpose. This time they aimed at providing a stronger performance vehicle but should also be a family car so the increased cargo capacity. The luxurious interior with the premium leather seats and the aggressive exterior with the famous Audi lines and lighting make this car a beauty.

The increased safety features must be considered while analyzing this car. The heavy engine is capable of giving high power and performance when needed. To conclude this car is a delight to drive be it in the city or on the off roads.
