Bookings for the new A4 can be done online or at dealerships.
Expected to be offered in two variants: Premium Plus and Technology.
The fifth-generation A4 gets a 190PS 2.0-litre TFSI petrol engine.
Pricing is likely to start from Rs 40 lakh.
Audi India has begun pre-launch bookings for the facelifted A4. The luxury sedan recently entered production at Skoda Auto Volkswagen India’s Aurangabad facility. Bookings can be done from Audi’s official website or at any authorised dealerships for a token amount of Rs 2 lakh. Audi will also offer an additional four-year comprehensive service package on all pre-launch bookings. Our dealer sources have hinted it could come in two variants: Premium Plus and Technology.
The facelifted A4 gets subtle design changes and looks sharper than before. The front end features a sharper grille that is slightly wider and is flanked by a funky set of LED headlamps. You also get redesigned LED tail lamps that are connected by a chrome strip. Apart from a prominent shoulder line and new alloy wheels, the side profile remains unchanged.
The facelifted A4’s dashboard layout is similar to the outgoing car. However, it comes with Audi’s latest MMI infotainment system that can be controlled only by touch inputs. It’s also a connected unit. Other features that could be part of the package are a digital instrument display, a Bang and Olufsen sound system, a sunroof, tri-zone climate control, cruise control, powered front seats and ambient lighting. Safety will be taken care of with multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, front and rear parking sensors, and a tyre pressure monitor.
Audi will offer the new A4 with a 190PS 2.0-litre TFSI turbo-petrol engine mated to a 7-speed S-tronic transmission, replacing the 150PS 1.4-litre turbo petrol. It will drive its front wheels and will do a 0-100kmph sprint in 7.3 seconds.
The new Audi A4 is likely to hit dealerships in January 2021 with a starting pricing of Rs 40 lakh (ex-showroom). It will lock horns with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, BMW 3 Series, Jaguar XE and the upcoming Volvo S60.
