Audi A4 video review
Different generations of used Audi A4
Fifth Generation (2015 to Present)
In the newest A4 models, the headlights and single-frame grille design from the larger A6 were combined. Audi also enhanced the design so that the drag coefficient would drop to 0.23, making it more aerodynamic and improving the fuel economy as a result. A new 8.3-inch touchscreen was added to the interior to modernise the cabin.
In 2019, Audi released a refreshed design with a bolder style. It also offered a new three-spoke steering wheel and leather seats with the S Line. A subsequent 2020 refresh included six LED blocks for each headlamp design and a restyled lower bumper to increase the air intake.

Fourth Generation (2008 to 2015)
The new A4 was designed to be very different from the previous generation. It arrived on a new platform that was meant to better enable mass distribution. A unique grille and headlight design was also added, even though the basic shape of the car was fairly recognisable.
A 2012 update added a single-frame style to the grille that matched the rest of the Audi lineup, surrounded by chromed trim. A longer bonnet and shorter deck showcased a sloped-down rear windscreen, making it look more like a sports saloon.
