my aunt has been looking for a new wagon for 2 years now and she bought the Audi A4 Allroad a month ago AND SHE LOVES IT!!! she does biking, kayaking and skiing and its perfect for everything. i want one now
Dyflinn, I was about to completely agree about the size comparison to the XC70, but I did some research and learned that the xc70 lands about smack in between the A4 Allroad and the A6 Allroad. Both Allroads are about the same height, but the 70 is taller. A4 is 185.5" long, the 70 is 190" and the A6 is 195". The 70 is a bit more than an inch wider than the A4, but the A6 is yet another inch wider. The XC70 seems to top both for volume in back - no doubt because of the height and the squarer compartment.
I don't think it is fair to compare the A4 Allroad boot space to the XC70. A fairer comparison would be the A6 Allroad and XC70, they're a closer match car-size wise.
Haters gonna hate! I had an Audi, and loved the interior, one of the best there was. But wasn´t satisfied with it, for budget reasons went for a Volvo and like it very much. Not the car I desire, though, would love a C class...but I appreciate all the well designed details from european cars. I can´t talk anything negative about Audi except for a subjective opinion about stability of the car, but to each one its own. Germans know what they are doing in cars.
Please Rebecca,learn about different car classes becouse on 3:35 you said that is smaller than Volvo XC70. Volvo XC70 is not in class with A4 ! It´s in class with A6 Allroad !
Looks like you can play table tennis in the back, but apparently it's not so good at going off-road because it doesn't have the raising air suspension that the old one did.
pickups are way more expensive to run and generally, unless you are a tradesman, in the UK, we don't really need pickups as much. I guess the argument with these cars is that they are a lot nicer to drive compared to a pickup and work better in the UK, but I get what you mean about this car being a bit pointless, you might as well get a small 4x4 if you are going to go off road or an estate car if you aren't
Wauw! i did not read the title and only realized it was an A4 not A6 in the end scene. Nice ride if you can afford it and go skiing often. BTW she is a charmer ;)
Ok, the Volvo xc70 dosent compet with the a4 allroad. The xc70 competes with the a6 allroad. The v60 cross country competes with the a4 allroad. The boot is barely different from the avant so why is it a complaint?
The Audi A6 Allroad is the size rival to the Volvo XC70 and Subaru Outback not this A4 version !!! In your reviews it would be interesting if you gave the on the road price of the test car. As that one was really loaded with goodies to influence the testers. I'll stick with my original Allroad, great second hand car !!!
You cant compare the x70 with the a4 allroad. Its rival is the a6 allroad which is much bigger and the subaru legacy was designed for families so it must to have a big boot because it doesnt excell on the other things.
Hey, im coming up 17 and im looking for a car, but i dont know what car to get! I obviously need something cheap to own and run e.g Low insurance and high mpg, something pretty nice to own! (No 1 liters, i hate them) If anyone can help please message me with ideas! Thank you
Rebecca, I disagree, the price is not a negative. Germans spend a lot on R&D for a quality product. Why do you think American fighter jets cost so much more than British, French, Russian, or Swedish. There's no comparison.
The name. Companies today want to spice things up, and convince you that you are not driving an estate, but something cool, like a sportswagon, or a sports tourer. Basically, it's an estate with a fancy name.
I watch all of these videos and I think Rebecca's turned a corner with this review. Her delivery seemed less scripted and she flowed nicely even if she did sound a little like she had a cold.
Now that I've lived in the US for fifteen years, whenever I hear "tick a few boxes" it makes me think more of giving someone crabs than placing a check mark.
I do not like carbuyer's reviews but they are way better than "the zombies reviewing cars". Oh, I mean "whatcar". A question mark on a red square is their logo:)
You forgot to mention how how the VW passat alltrack is better than the audi A4 allroad as you mentioned your previous review. But the VW passat alltrack isn't a 3L , yet, according to your review of it, it can tow a caravan or boat? I missed the banana. Bring back tne banana! :-(
Indeed, there are waaay to much pointless cars on this planet. Now still some people think it might be good, cause they buy it. And ok they consume more diesel then ordinary cars , but you pay less road tax so its almost the same...
I h-h-hate the tall, '80's-style gear selector lever with its large silver 'clutch' button that sticks out like a sore thumb and you press to select a gear (except in the A8, whose lever has a different design). Audi, please, please do away with this design and I might just pop in at one of your dealerships... And why don't we have the option of a manual transmission on the A4 Allroad in South Africa? :-(
Since Audi has kept it, it must be for a very good reason, and Audi decisions are typically for good reasons. Two reasons I can think of: good usability, and safety.
Whatever you do never ever buy French cars they are the worst to buy when it comes to reliability wise.....don't even think about purchasing a Renault Clio's Cars to get I would recommend 1) ford focus = engine go for Tdci 2) ford fiesta = same as above 3) vauxhall astra = cdti 4) vauxhall corsa = cdti 5) hyundai i20-i30= all are good 6) Honda civi = both is fine Upmarket cars 2) Audi a1 5dr or 3dr 3) Audi A3 4) BMW 1 series 5) Mercedes new a class

I love the reviews, you do a splendid job as always, always a pleasure to watch.

Car Buyer Team- your reviews are really good. Keep up the good work

love the fact you mentioned the saab 9-3X in the description :)
I am simply in love with this woman and her knowledge of cars!
Making an issue about the seats not lying flat kind of makes it sound like people go shopping for flat-pack furniture every week!
She's just so cute! Such a good reviewer
How audies are as winter cars ?
Very good review!!! Fantastic as always!
How are the reviews to short?
All points were covered without being long winded or saying stuff just to fill in time.
Please Rebecca,learn about different car classes becouse on 3:35 you said that is smaller than Volvo XC70. Volvo XC70 is not in class with A4 ! It´s in class with A6 Allroad !
***** Ingen Volvo älskare ! Menade storleksmässigt. Har inget med priset att göra.
+munktorp
They are off road cars that happen to be in the same price range. XC70 is not exactly a hardcore off road vehicle.
one of the best estate cars
Can I ask, what's the diff between touring car and estate car?
El Nuevo Audi A4 Allroad tiene la misma plataforma que el Audi A6 Allroad viejo???

They should try to make the plastic more appealing, maybe colouring it black would help.
Wauw! i did not read the title and only realized it was an A4 not A6 in the end scene. Nice ride if you can afford it and go skiing often. BTW she is a charmer ;)
listen to this then ; What about putting the sits down and see how space we can share there ? :P
Ok, the Volvo xc70 dosent compet with the a4 allroad. The xc70 competes with the a6 allroad. The v60 cross country competes with the a4 allroad. The boot is barely different from the avant so why is it a complaint?
What would you recommend between this and the A6 allroad?
Cheers Reb. nice review.
I think you should get a corsa 1.2, we have one and they are pretty good!!
The Audi A6 Allroad is the size rival to the Volvo XC70 and Subaru Outback not this A4 version !!!

Am I the only one that watches CarBuyer reviews because they're well presented and infomative; not for Rebecca?
Thumbs up if I'm not (Y)
Quattro isn't just a system,but a whole division like AMG or the BMW M brand
When will we get car reviews that aren't estates can't you review the seat Toledo for instead or the jaguar e type
You cant compare the x70 with the a4 allroad. Its rival is the a6 allroad which is much bigger and the subaru legacy was designed for families so it must to have a big boot because it doesnt excell on the other things.
Why would you need the 3.0 L engine?
Towing
'Telly Phoney', is that similar to telephony ? ;-D

Are you addressing Carbuyer or Rebecca o_O ?
isnt this car already reviewed
Hey mate, how are the 1950s doing lately ?
How about a Carbuyer Harlem Shake???
USD65000 in Japan...you can buy 2 subarus for such a large amount of money but you know 1 audi doesn't drive twice as good as 1 subaru.
Nice review Rebecca!
Unfortunately new Audi is too expensive, for me at least... :-/
i love this car; perfect everyday car
Allroads are thinking mans cars
only problem with this car is the "hill" with the seats down.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE !! REVIEW THE VOLVO XC70 :) Good engines and good looking style !!
wheres the bannana???
Rebecca, I disagree, the price is not a negative. Germans spend a lot on R&D for a quality product.
Why do you think American fighter jets cost so much more than British, French, Russian, or Swedish.
There's no comparison.
back sit?
yes,it is.
Your accent is super pleasant
what new range rover ?
"Even my mum has heard of an Audi Quattro."
I imagine Rebecca's mum has heard of many more cars than your average mum :-)
Unfortunately, audi cars in Brazil are so expensive! The A1 costs $45k
The name. Companies today want to spice things up, and convince you that you are not driving an estate, but something cool, like a sportswagon, or a sports tourer. Basically, it's an estate with a fancy name.
Still prefer bmw 3 series X drive touring as you can have the normal SE, sport, modern, luxury and M Sport
Reviev the a6 allso! Realy like those two cars!
I watch all of these videos and I think Rebecca's turned a corner with this review. Her delivery seemed less scripted and she flowed nicely even if she did sound a little like she had a cold.
Great review :-)
Man the U.K. has so many different engine choices
You can hear that rebecca has a cold, get well soon.
Nice review! and again, i like them black jeans:-)
We only need these all roads because most cars now have no ground clearance.
+klystron44
Most people want comfort and fuel economy.
Which is silly, because that would make it the "Audi A4 Allroad Before".
Now that I've lived in the US for fifteen years, whenever I hear "tick a few boxes" it makes me think more of giving someone crabs than placing a check mark.
Ah, I miss my Blackberry Bold
So many estate car reviews
My dream car
10/10 would marry
You can't compare this car with a Volvo xc70! The Xc has to be compared with the a6 all road !!
I agree with you
theres so many estates!
These videos are like potato chips... I can't stop watching them.
i don't think it's my "fredoom" to insult u for this typing or spelling mistake...... however discussion is over
I do not like carbuyer's reviews but they are way better than "the zombies reviewing cars". Oh, I mean "whatcar". A question mark on a red square is their logo:)
A lovely car but the Skoda Superb Outdoor plus is better value and does pretty much what the Audi does.
but the superb is a a6 :)
Linu none of the Skoda Superb generations share any A6 platforms. The 2008 to 2013 FL superb are based on a "stretched" A5 Octavia chassis.
peacockealot
But the size is comparable to a a6
You forgot to mention how how the VW passat alltrack is better than the audi A4 allroad as you mentioned your previous review. But the VW passat alltrack isn't a 3L , yet, according to your review of it, it can tow a caravan or boat? I missed the banana. Bring back tne banana! :-(
People buy this car in Portugal, to use it in good roads where there never is dirt, snow or gravel... What a shame.
Oh and forgot to mention
VW golf
VW polo
That's the only problem with allroads is that they have always been hideously expensive :/
if she is sick like this i dont want to see mat's situation if he cant record for her...
This car is good!
Attack of the scarf!!
@MahmoudSuliman I think you should care about the car!
2013 Vogue
The shiny plastics on the dashboard look cheap. The Volvo's interior looks more upmarket.
We want mat...
If only they made it with conventional A4 bumpers, rather than the cheap looking plastic ones
But LR or jeep sucks at the tarmac.
Shes certainly a tidy package! I wonder if she comes with the car?!
And forgot to mention VW golf and VW polo

stix sox h-h-hate yourrself!
I don't think taking this lovely Audi to offroad is a wise idea..
Saab was bankrupt last year but saved by a chinese company and makes EVs. Only the Outback is the Allroad's direct competitor
Whatever you do never ever buy French cars they are the worst to buy when it comes to reliability wise.....don't even think about purchasing a Renault Clio's
Cars to get I would recommend
1) ford focus = engine go for Tdci
2) ford fiesta = same as above
3) vauxhall astra = cdti
4) vauxhall corsa = cdti
5) hyundai i20-i30= all are good
6) Honda civi = both is fine
Upmarket cars
2) Audi a1 5dr or 3dr
3) Audi A3
4) BMW 1 series
5) Mercedes new a class
Der Audi sieht ganz gut aus, aber der Mercedes CLS ist viel besser! Und den kann man auch mit Allradantrieb bestellen!
I like Rebecca's jacket, where can I get a guy version? hehe
0:48 that (entirely cosmetic) piece of plastic glued to the rear door to round off the wheel arch covers is pathetic.
nice
I smell Jeremy Clarkson at 2:30
please be wiser in your comments, don't go around insulting people's beliefs
