Audi A4 Allroad 4x4 2.0 TFSI 5dr

For The turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol Allroad zips up to the redline and has plenty of overtaking punch. It also has Audi's smooth-shifting S tronic semi-automatic gearbox as standard.

Against This model doesn't make much sense if you've got one eye on economy and emissions. It's also priced on the wrong side of £30k, which is a lot for an A4.

What Car? says

2 out of 5 stars

As a swift and practical all-weather car, the petrol A4 Allroad is easy to like. However, most buyers will be better off with a regular A4 Avant or the 2.0-litre diesel Allroad.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

Anyone buying an A4 Allroad might also want to consider the regular Avant estate and Audi's Q5 4x4, which is closely related to the A4 under the skin.

If you're still sure the Allroad is the one for you, then the only big decision you face is which engine to go for. The 2.0-litre diesel would be our pick because it's strong, refined and the cheapest to buy and run.

The turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol is also worth considering if you're a private buyer who doesn't do many miles, or if you prefer to have your gears changed for you (it comes with a semi-automatic gearbox, whereas the 2.0-litre diesel is manual only). However, we'd avoid the 3.0-litre diesel because it's just too pricey.

Whichever engine you choose, the Allroad comes in just one well-equipped trim, although Audi offers plenty of tasty options. Just make sure you don't go crazy, because it's easy to add thousands to the price and you won't get the money back when you sell it on.
