Its superb car

Nice compact SUV for city and long drives. For city driving 7-8 kmpl and highway driving it’s giving 12-14 kmpl. The overall drive experience is smooth. Ambient lighting during the night gives a luxurious feel.

Audi A4 Premium 40 TFSI

The Audi A4 offers luxurious driving experience with advanced tech, smooth handling, and stylish design. However, it comes with higher maintenance costs and limited rare seat space.
