The Audi A4 was originally introduced in 1994 as the A4 saloon model, a 4 door
passenger sedan. One year later, consumer demand and the popularity of a more
cargo conscious vehicle prompted the introduction of the Audi A4 Avant and the
wagon version of the popular vehicle was introduced in 1995.
With all the convenience and comfort features of the Audi A4, the Avant wagon
provided more passenger space and more room for the cargo frequently transported
by business travelers and younger families. The vehicle was available in either
front wheel drive or four wheel drive with a variety of engine sizes. The
engineering and mechanical aspects of the Avant Wagon rivaled the engineering
and luxury options of more expensive and more popular German models such as the
BMW and Mercedes Benz without the heartier price tag. All of the profound and
more popular features of the Audi A4 sedan were also featured in the Audi A4
Avant.
Throughout the years between the introduction of the vehicle in 1995 and the
2007 model year, proficient German engineering has been the driving force of the
A4, whether in sedan, wagon or convertible form. Though the sedan version
appealed to those who did not need nor want additional cargo space, the Avant
appealed to the growing population of young families and business people who
needed the additional room but did not want to pay a high price or sacrifice
comfort and luxury. Updates throughout the years for the Avant have included
primarily intuitive engine and transmission upgrades and enhancements and more
minor cosmetic upgrades including more user friendly interior controls and
streamlining the body style and adding some well positioned chrome accents to
give the Avant wagon more of the appearance of a sports vehicle than the typical
functionality based family station wagon.
All things considered, the Audi Avant A4 Wagon has continued to be one of the
most mechanically reliable vehicles in its class while also being very popular
with consumers as a visually appealing compact luxury car with obtainable
purpose. |
