The 2023 Audi allroad is one of the few dirt-road-capable wagons on the market. The A4 allroad offers three distinct trims and mirrors its A4 sedan siblings but provides a more versatile interior and light off-road ability.
The midsize A4 allroad has no real competitors to speak of, except for maybe the Volvo V60 Cross Country. The Subaru Outback shares similar dimensions but lacks the luxury credentials Audi brings to the table. The Volvo V90 Cross Country and Mercedes E-Class All-Terrain Wagon are undoubtedly luxurious, but their size and price align them more with the Audi A6 allroad.
2023 Audi A4 allroad Premium (starting at $45,500)
The entry-level Premium shares the same drivetrain as its more expensive stablemates, in this case, a 261-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder gas engine paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission and Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system.
The Premium trim includes LED headlights and daytime running lights, rain-sensing wipers, and manual-folding heated power side mirrors. Rear privacy glass comes standard, as do aluminum roof rails, a power liftgate, 18-inch alloy wheels, and LED taillights with dynamic turn signals.
An adaptive damping suspension helps smooth the allroad’s ride over rough road surfaces and keeps it taut when carving up the curves. Overhead, a massive panoramic sunroof brightens the interior and includes a power sunshade when desiring less light.
In the Premium trim, luxury and convenience features abound. Standard features include tri-zone automatic climate control with rear seat controls and air vents, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel with shift paddles, and an illuminated stalk for the cruise control.
Both driver and front passenger enjoy 8-way power adjustable heated seats, with the driver gaining 4-way power lumbar support. Where some entry-level luxury trims use synthetic upholstery, the A4 allroad Premium comes standard with genuine leather.
Rear seat passengers sit on a 40/20/40-split-folding seat that can accommodate two passengers in the outer positions and still fit a long cargo item through the folding center section.
The driver enjoys an analog instrument cluster with a 7-inch color driver information center that displays various readouts such as mileage, fuel economy, audio setting, and more.
Audi’s MMI Touch Display comprises a 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen hosting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also included is a trial plan for Audi Connect Care, which allows owners to lock and unlock, locate, or track a stolen allroad from the convenience of their smartphone.
When not hosting media duties, the touchscreen serves as the display for the AM/FM radio, rear backup camera, and various system settings. It also grants access to Audi Driver Select, a system that allows the driver to alter the throttle input, steering feel, and transmission shift points via five modes: Comfort, Dynamic, Efficiency, Auto, and Offroad.
A 180-watt 10-speaker Audi sound system comes standard.
The A4 Premium touts several standard driver-assist systems, including forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, and a pre-collision system that automatically closes the windows and sunroof while tightening the seatbelts.
Additional safety measures include electric child locks for the rear doors with the buttons conveniently located on the power window control panel. Lane-departure warning alerts the driver when the vehicle drifts across a lane marker. At the same time, automatic high-beam headlights switch on in low-light situations and dim when sensing a vehicle ahead or oncoming traffic.
Rounding out the A4 allroad Premium’s standard equipment is a built-in garage door opener, a tool kit, a compact spare tire, and an integrated toll module.
Buyers looking for more features can upgrade to the Convenience Package, which adds adaptive cruise control, Audi Advanced Key keyless entry, auto-dimming side mirrors, front and rear parking sensors, a blind-spot monitor, and rear cross-traffic detection.
Also in the package is a heated steering wheel, a motion sensor alarm system, 2-position driver’s seat memory, and SiriusXM 360L satellite radio.
Standalone options include rear side-impact airbags, premium paint finishes, and the ability to delete the integrated toll monitor.
With the $1,095 destination fee, the 2023 Audi A4 allroad costs $46,595. On a 60-month loan with 3% financing and zero down, the monthly payment comes to about $837. See 2023 Audi A4 allroad Premium models for sale

2023 Audi A4 allroad Premium Plus (starting at $50,100)

The Premium Plus includes all Premium standard equipment plus the contents from the Convenience Package.
Additional equipment includes lane-keeping assist, a wireless charging pad with phone signal booster, and Audi’s stylish Virtual Cockpit featuring a 12.3-inch digital cluster display.

Other features on the Premium Plus include a 360-degree monitor, power-folding side mirrors, and a hands-on detecting steering wheel that assists the driver when making emergency maneuvers.
Traffic Jam Assist, which utilizes the lane-keeping assist and adaptive cruise control, allows semi-autonomous driving in certain stop-and-go traffic situations.
Perhaps the best reason to move to the Premium Plus is its newly standard 755-watt 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system.
Options for the Premium Plus include the Warm Weather Package, which adds ventilated sport front seats with 4-way power lumbar and manual rear side window sunshades.
Also available are Audi navigation and Audi Connect Plus, the latter granting access to features like a Wi-Fi hotspot and Amazon Music.
New this year is the Black Optic Package, which brings 18-inch V-spoke wheels plus black exterior trim, badging and roof rails.
The package also gets a black headliner and Manhattan gray contrast paint with a silver matte finish on the rocker sills and bumpers.
With the $1,095 destination fee, the 2023 Audi A4 allroad Premium Plus costs $51,195. On a 60-month loan with 3% financing and zero down, the monthly payment comes to about $920. See 2023 Audi A4 allroad Premium Plus models for sale

2023 Audi A4 allroad Prestige (starting at $55,400)
As its name suggests, the Prestige is the ultimate allroad and includes all Premium Plus standard equipment plus the Warm Weather and Navigation packages.
Building from this already well-equipped roster, the Prestige adds animation headlights and taillights, multicolor ambient interior lighting, heated outboard rear seats, and a head-up display.
Audi’s Matrix Design LED headlights are standard, comprised of multiple LED bulbs and millions of tiny mirrors for a more precise light beam. The adaptive system can illuminate approaching curves or narrow the headlight beam to fit between the lane markers so as not to blind oncoming drivers.
Built-in headlight washers keep the lenses clear.
Finally, the Prestige includes a self-parking assistant that can steer the car into a parallel or perpendicular parking space and a system that monitors traffic signs so you’ll always know the posted speed limit.
