New Delhi: Audi has taken the wraps off the new generation Audi A4 sedan. The new car features an all new styling as well as a brand new interior that should give the A4 some much needed artillery to tackle the Mercedes-Benz C-class.
The front end gets a new grille that looks a lot like the Audi TT. The headlamps too are sleeker than those on the predecessor. The LED element in the headlamps are also revised and contribute to the sharper face of the new Audi A4.
The side profile may look similar to the outgoing model and that is mainly attributed to the sharp crease line that runs across the length of the car. Audi, however, says that every body panel on the new A4 is new. The rear is a typical Audi shape with new LED tail lights that are sleeker and gel well with the overall design.
The new A4 is longer by 25mm and wider by 16mm in comparison to the current A4. The height remains the same. Audi has used the MLB platform to develop the new A4 that sees results in an increase in wheelbase to 2,820 mm, an increment of 12mm.
Audi says that it has incorporated hydro-formed steel and aluminium to construct the bodyshell and panels that has led to a 120kg weight reduction over the current generation A4.
The interiors feature a quintessential Audi layout. The new MMI screen sits above the centre console and the AC vents stretch across the length of the dashboard, acting like a distinguishing element between the top and bottom half of the dashboard.
The steering is a three spoke unit and is tastefully finished with a nice aluminium bottom spoke. The instrument cluster is also all new and resembles the unit in the Audi TT. The cluster features an integrated GPS display alongwith readouts for speed and engine revs.
