2016 allroad

CG Says: The Audi allroad is little changed for 2016. Keyless access and starting is now optional on base Premium models. The optional Technology package of the Premium Plus version now includes a Bang & Olufsen sound system. In a market that favors crossovers and SUVs, the Audi allroad wagon has little direct competition in the premium-compact-car category. It’s an intriguing fusion of SUV/crossover attributes (higher ground clearance and rugged body styling features) applied to a traditional passenger-car-based station wagon (the allroad is based on the Audi A4). The allroad has good power, athletic handling, and a comfortable, classy interior. Add to that a bit of mild off-roading ability, and this is a nice alternative to a premium-compact SUV.
