Audi A4 Diesel Sees no Change in Design and Styling

Audi A4 Diesel Cabin

There is also a 7 inch screen on the dash, which can hook up your phone, thanks to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; and of course, there's Audi's own MMI interface, which is extremely user friendly. Just like in the petrol variant, space at the rear isn't a problem too, as there's good legroom on offer; but, in this one, it's all about the engine and it's the same as the one on the Skoda Superb, but with a bit more of everything.

Audi A4 Diesel Cabin Features

It's got one of the quietest cabins in its class and I had to remind myself that what I was driving was a car with a diesel engine and a powerful one at that. There's 188 bhp on offer, coming out of that 2.0 litre engine and 400 Nm of pulling power, from about 1800 rpm. The power is channelled through the front wheels, via an absolutely engaging 7 speed DSG; and that's brilliant, compared to the CVT on the last one. The gear changes are precise and seamless and you just keep enjoying the drive, while also providing a fuel efficiency figure of more than 18 kmpl.

Audi A4 Diesel Makes 188 bhp and 400 Nm of Peak Torque

You can fine tune the experience to an extent, thanks to the four driving modes on offer - Normal, Dynamic, Auto and Individual; but none actually tweaks the suspension setup of the car. The ride is sublime and it absorbs bumps with ease. It's well damped and absolutely fun to drive.

Audi A4 Diesel

I had my reservations recommending the petrol engine of the A4, it's a good engine no doubt but a bit underwhelming for a luxury sedan; however, with the new diesel engine, the Audi A4 makes a strong statement, not only to its consumers, but also competitors, as the line-up is now complete and with a price tag of over 40 lakh rupees, Audi, yet again, shows that it means business!
