The 2021 Audi A4 is a petrol sedan with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the B9 LCI generation. The 40 TFSI is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 40 TFSI version develops 204 hp and 320 Nm (236 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 7.1 seconds, which is responsive rather than outright performance-focused. Top speed is listed at 240 km/h (149 mph). Its power output is close to the peer average. Its acceleration is close to the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 6.5 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 54.0 litres (14.3 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 148 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,762 mm (187.5 in) in length, 1,847 mm (72.7 in) in width, and 1,428 mm (56.2 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,820 mm (111.0 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 460 litres (16.2 cu ft), expanding to 1,370 litres (48.4 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,530 kg (3,373 lb). That cargo volume is close to the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 40 TFSI and allroad 45 TFSI quattro. Across the range, the specifications span 204 hp to 265 hp and 5.9 s to 7.1 s, while listed starting prices run from $39,200-$44,000. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol sedan models from the same period, the 2021 Audi A4 does not separate itself through a single dominant headline figure, while price stands out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
