Look beyond the new, handsome skin, and the A4 reveals a bevy of improvements that make it one of the best driving, most technologically advanced cars in its class.
Outside, taut, elegant lines meet sharp angles to create a modern design. Inside, the interior is given a massive overhaul, bringing with it Audi's finest leather and aluminum materials.
