The 2015 Audi Allroad can be a family-sized wagon with brawny doing you hair, perky on-the-road performance, and a tad bit more rough-road and all-weather toughness than the usual typical sedan. Its really a model in whose whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

While the previous edition in the Audi Allroad had been built with A6 underpinnings - the current Allroad is built on the same platform as the A4, and its a tidier vehicle for the item. Its still a station wagon with a slightly taller ride height–earning it both many of the advantages of an off-pavement SUV, without compromising too many in the driving dynamics found in some sort of sports sedan.

The 2015 Audi Allroad pushes the rugged look on the outside - but purchasing an off-road permit for it could be a little much. There arent chops here for over casual off-pavement driving—a gravel street sounds about right—but the Allroads stability control features a special mode which allows for more wheelspin, in case its stuck in muck and would need to extract itself. Ground clearance is 7. 1 inches—less than this Subaru Outback, but about exactly like some soft crossovers—and the Audi Allroad provides some modest skid-plate and underbody security for light trailblazing.

Seating inside Allroad is excellent, although the tight back seat can be a limiting factor. In front, even the camp seats provide great support for longer highway trips, with adequate side support, too. In back again, the seating position is a lttle bit low, and perhaps better contoured than practically in most crossovers - but theres simply no place for knees and feet for taller adults. With 27. 6 cubic feet behind a corner bench, and an easy-folding couch arrangement, the Audi Allroad is ideal for making room for weekend projects and also other cargo needs. Flip everything forward so you have up to 50 cubic legs.

The 2015 Audi Allroad is in line with the A4 architecture, and while it hasnt yet been rated with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safe practices (IIHS), its earned five-star frontal and side impact ratings in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Noteworthy safety options include adaptive cruise control that will stop the car completely from boosts to 19 mph; blind-spot monitors plus a rearview camera are also accessible, as are rear-seat airbags. Awareness, however, is pretty good, due to the tall glass areas, but even with the back parking sensors and rear camera afforded to the vast majority of lineup, the bulbous hood obscures in which the front corners are.

Under the cloak of some cladding and the extra promise of a tad bit more trail-running lift is the Audi A4 Avant; on this occasion were only getting the Allroad, thats upstyled to connect the dots between A4 lineup and the Q5 crossover. And the Outbacked treatment works very nicely, with its raised ride top, distinctive lower-body look, and aluminum exterior trim. The Audi Allroad carries a stronger stance from the facet, while at the front theres a tad bit more presence, probably due to this vertically ribbed grille - Trim LED headlamps are chamfered at the summit corners for a subdued, sophisticated appearance throughout the nose, while wide fog lamps add substance listed below. Most models get a matte-finish cladding with the lower body and around this wheel wells, but a higher-gloss look can be purchased.
