  • The A4 has undergone a much-needed facelift. I say much-needed because when the ninth-generation A4 debuted a few years back, it looked far too similar to the model it replaced - which in itself had been around far too long. The result was that the new A4 couldn’t quite replicate the success of the iconic A4 B8, at least in the Indian market. Will the facelift given to the B9 could change that. Let’s take a look at the new car!

    Audi has priced the car smartly compared to its competitors.
    Well said if you need driver oriented car, it should be BMW. If you need rear seat comfort , it’s Merc. If you need both it’s Audi. Buy Jag if you want to standout. 👍🏻
    Audi will always be ahead when it comes to technology. May it be Virtual cockpit or Lights.

      @@tusharmahaley I have first hand experience as well. Haven’t owned the Audi, but I’ve owned their Skoda counterparts and they were a disaster. Some of my friends owned Audi’s and they had almost same problems as me because of the almost same drivetrain underneath.
      And have to completely disagree on British being reliable. JLR is by far the most troublesome. Infact i’d rate them the most unreliable out of the Luxury brands. If I’d had to rate them on reliability, 1st would be the BMW hands down, 2nd Merc, 3rd Audi and 4th JLR.

      @rohit_paradkar 3 года назад

      True, but look at the difference in volumes for those brands versus VW group in India. The much larger problem is cost. The group is unable to price their cars competitively in the market and the cost of BSVI diesels will escalate them further, again not making much business sense. But yes, if Mercedes-Benz, BMW and J-LR can find a way out, I’m sure VAG can, too.
