- The A4 has some changes for 2020! Under the hood is a 2.0L inline-4 turbocharged engine producing 248HP and mated to a 7-speed DCT transmission. Of course power is getting to the ground through Audi's Quattro AWD system. On the outside you will find some new sheetmetal, front fascia, grill, rear bumper and wheels. On the inside all trims get an updated 10in infotainment system screen and upgraded materials. Is the updated 2020 Audi A4 the PERECT midsize luxury sedan??

I love how you really push each car to see what it can do! Corners etc. awesome.
“Everybody get 10 inches free of charge “ Joe Raiti 😜😜😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Does that mean the guy with the 10 incher was charging by the inch before it became free?
@@babybear4524 it’s increased in size - it used to be eight inches for free
@@s.r.5462 I dont even remember what this conversation was all about but reading it now sure sounds to me like a guy telling a woman that she can get an 8 inch cock for free, but if it's bigger then they have to pay by the inch. But hey woman charge more for big boobs and a big butt so I guess its ok for a man to do so if he is lucky enough to have a 9 or 10 incher. lol (assuming he knows how to use it).
Very nice colour Joe.
As usual good balanced review. Even your personal feelings are expressed in that way.I mean I've listened to others and you can clearly see annoyance with whatever shortcomings they are pointing out in the product.Keep that same spirit
That is so very awesome of you to say. Thank you so much for the support!
although a good looking car, I think the previous generation just looks much sportier.
I think you are right!
yes
My brother got this car last week the color on this car is AMAZING sticks out in the whole neighborhood and came in on LOW PROS beautiful car
Tell him I said congrats!
So honestly upgrading to an s4 is totally worth it. For the 5-10k more you get twice the car but with the amazing looks!
Carson McEvoy AGREED!
Thanks for this relaxing music. I am just asking if I can learn to be able to serve others with this kind of relaxing music.
Love the audi reviews Joe!
Digging that Turbo Blue color!
Hope all is well!
We are doing good my friend! How are you?
@@RaitisRides I'm doing well, just trying to make it through this crazy college semester
Weird that this is labeled as a mid-size because it was always supposed to directly compete size-wise with the 3-Series and C-Class and IS. Granted 186 inches or so in length can still be somewhat be considered a "compact" sedan.
Agreed!
It’s not a midsize sedan it’s a compact sedan and always has been.
@@Vic292 Yeah, I was referring to what he called the car in the video as well as video title. Funny though because some car magazine reviews also say it's pushing midsize status due to its length and overall size.
@@SLone3251 yes it’s growing in size.
Everyone gets 10 inches. Free of charge!
Scott Corry thanks for letting me share the laughs.
Nice car but i still perefer the 3 series
I can understand where you are coming from.
I'm 6'3" am I'm gonna fit?
Does this drive better than like a stinger 2.0 or a g70 2.0
How are LED headlight not standard? You get Toyota corollas with that standard. Com’on Audi, get it together!
Turbo charger?
Yes sir!
he's the only person i trust loll
If you already put efforts into makes vents, at least make them functional. SUPER ZONK
This guy can spend 20 minutes talking about a potato, you talk to much about the obvious. “We got 4 wheels on this car, it comes with 4 tires standard, tread for driving on the road, and you can even drive in the rain, plus it has air in each tire “
Thanks for the feedback.
Raiti's Rides look man, your videos definitely have great quality, but you really don’t need to tell people about the cup holders in the doors, and things that are just obvious. If you want to get more “time” then maybe go over something else. I’m a 37 year old car enthusiast, who stumbled on your channel for some reviews, but maybe you should not act like you’re talking strait from the window sticker? The content is bland, and overdrawn.
What is that ? Mexican blue 😝 ?
14:22 On throttle! You know when the Raiti’s Rides Logo appears he’s got the foot down 😎
Gareth Hood you are so awesome! You know me well!
That color is phenomenal, I'm glad Audi is offering interesting colors on their entry level models instead of a sea of greys.
I totally agree with you! It brings the car to life!
Agreed!
The car still looks the same as every other Audi BORING budget car, for poor people who can’t afford a full size German luxury car
@@briannawilliams7370 Brianna drives a 1997 Chrysler Sebring and says this Audi is a poor mans budget car.
But how well will that color age?
That blue color under the hood though POPS!!!
Super pops!
Dang Joe, I know I've called you out on your titles before, but your reviews are always so detailed and the camera angles are on point. Keep it up and stay safe. You're still my favorite affordable car reviewer!
Thanks for that! Your support really means a lot!
The colour looks beautiful. And it sounds good too. Interior colour is beautiful. 👌🏻 Overall appearance looks great. I love their new design movement for new Audi models. Great job Audi.
Arize Gaming I am so glad you approve of this one!
The lease on my 2018 A4 is up soon and I would happily try another one. Looking forward to quattro this time; I got the lower level FWD and it’s time to upgrade. Hopefully the AWD and 3 years of development have mitigated my biggest zonk on my ‘18 which is that significant lurching from a stop.
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership!
I have one from 2017, I love that car. I prefer the command dial but I really like the new headlights.
Patrick Sullivan thanks for sharing that great input !
What are the repairs like on the 2017?
@patrickstonetree1 has your 2017 had any issues mechanically?
Ended up with this for my new car! I absolutely love it!
Congrats Jaime!
What color you go with?
I can’t wait for the s4 or a rs5!
Here you go my friend:

@@RaitisRides Oh yeah, I forgot you had already uploaded an s4! Let me watch it again hahaha. Although I prefer the b9 generation.
Evaristo Corripio dame here!
@@RaitisRides Keep up with the awesome content man!
I love this candy-centric review!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the A4... A superb daily driver to the office. Have fun on the way to work and on the way home. Very comfortable and relaxing automobile. S4, if you have the money who could ask for anything more?.
Jon Lewis I totally agree with you!
Midsize sedan? The midsize is the A6!! Do you even know what you are talking about?
Do you? The new B9 is much bigger than previous gens and is not compact whatsoever
Audis are becoming less and less attractive
Yeah sucks only the high performance ones get the looks back then every Audi got the looks now it’s different
Now they look very generic. Sometimes you can confuse them with Volkswagen. Another unattractive car lol
Arthur Vardanyan my b8 a4 doesn’t look like a Volkswagen
@Simon i completely disagree. Base models of many cars including Cadillac, Mercedes look like a masterpiece. The higher trims just add the existing beauty of those cars. If you take te highest trim levels of Audi an Volkswagen, they still look very outdated and generic
Arthur Vardanyan not really my a4 has the prestige package it changes the whole look of the car it lowers it bigger wheels and such
I'm sorry man, but I'm starting to always fast forward over your history bits at the start of all your videos.
And that thin tri-grill above the main grill is a tribute to the old Audi Quattro cars in the 80's, and some of their rally cars of that era, that had 3 grills at the front of the hood. Several new Audi's have this design feature for that tribute, and aren't supposed to be functional.
I can totally understand where you are coming from. I like the tribute idea.
Zonk
@@RaitisRides I can totally understand where you coming from, Joe this made laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He does it for new viewers. It's not just audi enthusiasts not everyone knows the history. But yes. For us regulars it gets a bit lengthy
And seriously we can see what color are the wheels lines of the body dont have to explain we are not stupid.
Thank you!!! Been waiting for a solid review for this car and you did it! Really interested in getting this A4
Masrur Molla I’m so glad that you approve!
Did you buy it?
Love your reviews. Can you also include the sun visors when you review the interior?
Will do man!
@@RaitisRides Thanks Joe, some of these great cars sometimes have bad flimsy sun visors. Maybe you will find a new thing to ZONK about 😊😊!!
Shahed Hasnat you are so very right!
Hey Joe! Love the refresh-- Did you have a chance to try out the Active Lane Assist feature? Is it a lane-centering tool that keeps the vehicle centered in its lane when working with the adaptive cruise control?
Thanks again!
8:07 that's called the Hot Wheels Slot and it's where keep my R34 Skyline that I play with on my dash when I'm in traffic in my S4.
Is that the only me , that vent in the front make this Audi looks so terrible.
I feel your pain!
My dream sedan!!! Awesome review Joe.
We just bought a Prestige and oh man. The way the nav map looks on the Virtual Cockpit is just awesome
I totally agree with you ! Congrats!
I just bought this car and I’m satisfied with it. Good car.
Looks like the zombie apocalypse has already been through that area. I've never seen such nice roads so unused. Pulling out of that dealership looked like you just entered a airport runway.
Now to the A4, that media center looks like an afterthought and doesn't do a thing for me where others have impressed with response time this one stood out with noticable lag. Fail!
I'm in the market and never been big on Audi or BMW as I tended towards the Japanese brands. So I'm somewhat pleased that both Audi and BMW failed to impress me in 2020. I guess I just don't need the ultimate driving machine.
I like the S60 and Mercedes C Class but looks like the Mercedes is in the lead. Less power but the interior just wins me over and 4 ways to control the media is pretty damn nice.
Thanks for another great review.
Love the consistency!
Zonk on the colour from me. I want bright white, beige leather, light wood trim. I,m all about Audi these days.
I can understand that it isn't for everyone.
Go for A5, A7
Looks sleek, love that color too. I sold my 2013 A4 last year for a 2017 BMW 3-Series, but seeing this makes me want to go back to Audi!😍
I am so glad that you like this one Vic!
Mkz>a4. Its not close. AT ALL
About that “S-Line” badge, it invokes the styling and feel of the performance S4 car. BMW is actually much worse by actually using it’s actual M/// badge on all of its cars, performance or not. It even puts it on the X3! The whoring out of that M/// badge is shocking to real BMW enthusiasts. 🤔🤔
Hey Joe, big fan! I was wondering if you could review a standard VW Golf in its last year on our shores. Thanks and keep up the amazing reviews!
Wynn Doman I will get that together for you!
The biggest turnoff was removing that control panel ! I loved that and now its just a storage space ! :|
Great color on this ride. We are jaded today with power everything, I remember a time when power windows were the talk of the neighborhood. Let's man up if we don't have a power trunk! Lol 😎👍
That is so awesome! LOL
Car looks so plain. What a fail
Step up the game to a S4.
Agree. Clearly a good car, just a little bit dull to look at. Those fake vents look so fake.
I am new to cars. It looks like Audis have barely changed for such a long time. Like of course changes. But it still is so obviously a Audi. The blue looks amazing. And also am baffled how normal people could afford this. And is this reliable?
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
who says we are normal just because we drive an Audi?
That color is atrocious lol.
I'm glad Audi is finally addressing the dreaded plague of tooth-adhering JuJuBees. Nice review, bud!
Needs a louder exhaust. I am guessing that it is easy to break the speed limit with that car? ;)
That fake vent above the grill is the reminiscent of the original quattro... so clearly you know nothing about Audi's
That's mid size?🤔 I think that is considered compact to where the A6 is the midsize...overall I like your reviews
Yes sir it is. The A3 would be a compact and Audi does not sell a subcompact at least here in the States.
That front brushed aluminum look is just terrible. The black optic package is an absolute must
That front vent ruined the whole car, wouldn’t buy just because of that vent.
Come on Joe everybody knows is a German car🤠 rear cup holders, net pockets and some tiny storage in rear armrest is the biggest zonk
Edward Valivonis agreed
Me: what
Joe: what
Exterior is awesome. Interior very a3-ish. Fugly
This car looks shrimpy and somewhat cheap from all angles. Don't like its design.
I want it in manual. I hate dct
Bro, you must change your name to “Front Row Joe” or the “Candyman”
My heart got zonked going thru the roundabouts!
LOL! You are hilarious!
Love this B9 A4, Joe! And that color is amazing!
I totally agree with you!
@@RaitisRides Right.
Brian Lee you have good taste!
@@RaitisRides Why thanks, Joe!
nice 4 door Golf R with a 10k mark up
built in understeer
Pikka GTR yep
I like the colour, wheels & the interior. 👍 But people responsable for the front grill ... should go find another job. 👎
I totally agree with you!
Why don't you never show how the blinkers/turn signals work?
Debating if I should trade my 2020 STI in on one of these S4’s...
Take one for a drive!
Are you lease? Then go for it
I love the A4, but don’t know about that color. How well will it age?
clothestravel great question!
clothestravel good care of the car will make the paint last
The notorious Joey I understand; my comment wasn’t meant to be about how the paint will physically wear; instead, it’s more about overall style and aesthetic. How will it hold up stylistically? It’s not exactly a classic color like silver, white, or black, so it could prematurely date the car to a specific period. It may not matter to many potential buyers that end up leasing the car and moving on after three years of lease ownership, but to someone that wants to own the car for 10, 15, or maybe even 20 years, it could be a decisive factor.
I don’t think I’d pay that much for a 4 cylinder. Looks too much like a VW Jetta. Nice review Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
L S I can understand where you are coming from.
ngl i like this car but the raer kinda looks like a jetta especially with the blu because jetta owners always get those crazy colors
Rigoberto Garza you are not alone in those thoughts.
Those slots above the front grill are a “homage” to the “84 sport Quattro.
I’ve been an Audi customers for over 20 years. However, that dash 6:40 is a zonk. It’s been around for years. They should have been updated it to the new design they put in the refreshed Q7.
Gareth Hood I totally agree with you!
Pls review audi music system songs
Can you do the audi a5 newly refresh convertible
As soon as they hit the dealerships I will be all over it!
Love these, but agree 100% about the fake inlet on the hood. They should eliminate it.
*TheVoxOfReason* AGREED
The thin fake vent at the leading edge of the hood was supposed to invoke the look of the front end of the 1980’s Audi S2 Quattro Rally Car. It had the same vent on it’s hood. 🤘😎🤘
I like the German brands! But I have to say with the A4, Q5 and A5 the infotainment screen is poorly integrated. It looks really fragile. I think I prefer the Infiniti Q60 and QX50 Interior. Not being funny, but it’s nicer
why Audi US and Canada delete the auto hold ? it is important for traffic jam. I totally don't understand how does VW consider ? Toyota and Honda already have this standard feature for Camry ,CRV , Accord !
Hey Joe! Please do a review on *Porsche 992 911 Manual transmission*
AK A you got it my man!
I love his videos however, I hate how he has to cover the speed. 😢
Maybe describe the hood body lines as “two inboard and two outboard” like airplane terminology. Sounds better than “two on this side and two on that side” inboard and outboard” tells you that you’re working inside out or outside in and that there’s symmetry. Just a suggestion.
I’m getting my A4 KOMFORT 45 TFSI with convenience package in terra gray. I CANNOT wait. I’m turning 20 the day after I received the car if god wills it.
Agree with all the stated ZONKS😌
Thanks Vince! I really appreciate that!
Joe I currently have a 2009 a4 prestige 96k miles 1 owner I’m the second owner very clean car it’s my first car got it 1 year ago turning 18 soon do you think I should trade it for an s4 I really want the power from the car!
I love the color on the Audi.Can you get say tan inside also?Now the A4 is to Volkswagen is the Jetta?I am a twinkie fan and a twizzler nut.Need a car the can fit some.Keep up the great reviews.
Audis are nice. I'v owned a 2001 S8 and currently own a 2013 S5 Cabriolet Prestige. Both are awesome. My wife loves the S5 as well. My other fun car is a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. (On Throttle!) Haha! Thanks for the video!
Audi really needs to change their cargo nets at this point. Why would a luxury German vehicle have nets, it should be wrapped in leather or the way that Mercedes done it.
All of them have it though.
@@RaitisRides Exactly
Mopar Tom yep
It is a great handling car! Mine has the 19" wheels, summer tires and lowered sports suspension. It feels as quick as my Golf R around town, and handles great! I did delete the two resonators to get some sounds. It worked;)
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership!
I recently test drove the 2019 A4 and it had a lot of hesitation “turbo lag”. I drive a GTI with the same 2.0T and it doesn’t have that same lag. I would love to buy the Audi but I’m concerned. Did you experience the same?
@@KoronaSaintLouis At one point in time I owned both a mk7.5 Golf R & 2020 A4 45 TFSI. The A4 feels just as quick. If you floor it, you get lag. Just don't floor it until it builds boost, then floor it! The VW's have a different turbo that doesn't lag as much. I guess you learn to work around it. I live with mine in Dynamic mode and drive the DSG (a.k.a. Stronic) with the paddles most of the time, so there is ZERO lag.
@@backseatdriver8902 thanks
@@backseatdriver8902 facts paddle mode black optic package and sport package thing is a legit copy and paste of a s4 ofc just no v6 but thing pullllls regardless
First of all that color is so sexy on the car. I love Audi always have and always will because they know how to make great looking vehicles and for me I think they add just enough to the car and don’t ever do it.
That screen is terrible and OG! Even Maz has better interior degsign! Merc has tottally reinvented the interior dash these days.
On throttle...! Looks good in and out just like joe and lori and ofcourse tom even I dont see him :) I wanna see the business end of audi a3 with twinkies
I'm contemplating this car because of what I've heard about maintenance cost and reliability. Any owner here that can comment on that?
Dodge Charger is better but Audi s4 for example is in top 5 in that category (for me) :) Great reviews
Attention Raiti’s ride, would please find out if the 2020 A5 comes with the turbo blue color or not? 🙏❤️
Hey Joe great review waiting for the 2020 Audi A5 cabriolet review.
Scott Whyte stay tuned my friend!
Audi has not made a name for itself with reliability.
Thats the damn truth. So what has? Bmw?
