4.0 Fuel Economy | 2.0 Value for Money |
Exterior
Typical european styling, smooth and curvy
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
seats are comfortable, give a commanding look over the hood, the bells and frills are all there!
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Horrid! Try backing the car from stationary state; there is huge lag between the time you press on the accellerator and the time the car starts to move. Engine is a major disappointment till such time the turbo kicks in at around 1.8-2k rpm
Fuel economy will leave you with a smile....
Gear box is the best thing in this vehicle. Grea shifts are beautifully timed without even the slightest lag
Ride Quality & Handling
Steering feedback is not at all satisfactory. There is hardly any road feedback. Turning and steering movement are not in tandem making it rather uneasy. Strong body roll on curves at speeds above 60 kmph
Final Words
Once you realize that you are actually paying this kind of money for a Laura (Skoda) engine, the sheen wears off! In fact they have not even bothered to remove the Skoda badging at places..... And heaven help you if you get stuck at one of their Service Centers. You will come out frustrated and feeling cheated. Cannot really go any further on a public forum. Suffice to say that Audi A4 has been a major disappointment for me.
Areas of improvement
Hopefully, they get honest!
Good Fuel economy, driving comfort, gears are fuild and smoothunder powered, steering feedback is very poor
