At IAB, we think that the Audi A4 is one of the coolest looking car money can buy. One in black with 3.0L TDI engine just melts your heart like a vanilla ice cream on a sunny day.
Its contemporary styling and crisp LED cluster make it the car Iron man would drive if he was an accountant.
But the current A4 has been with us for 4 years and the styling is getting old (just a bit). Considering the new Mercedes C Class has been already unveiled to the world and the next generation BMW 3 Series is just around the corner, Audi cannot just sit there and do nothing.
So they have decided to give the Audi A4 a mid life facelift to make its styling more in line with its elder sisters A6 and A8. Here we have a station wagon version of the A4 doing its testing rounds. Although, Audi India doesn’t sell the wagon version, the styling cues are more or less similar.
From the looks of it, the new A4 is going to have sharp bonnet lines like the new A6 and a refreshed front grill. The rear LED cluster will be replaced by a completely new one. On the inside, Audi plans to provide latest MMI controls along with a lot of features that will trickle down from the A6.
By our guessing, this will hit the market exactly after BMW chooses to display its new 3 Series. So expect an Auto Expo 2012 debut for the new A4.
