What has been a very strong seller for Audi in India, has been updated significantly both inside and out. The new Audi A4 facelift sports Audi's latest iteration of the hexagonal single-frame grille flanked by new LED headlamps with LED DRLs on either side. The front bumper too has been refreshed with new fog lamp housings and at the rear, there's redesigned tail lamps with a re-worked bumper. The new Audi A4 looks a lot more sporty and hunkered down than the outgoing car.

The interiors of the Audi A4 too have been sufficiently spruced up. Although it does the feature the dual-screen setup for the infotainment system and climate controls seen on newer and bigger Audis like the A6, A8L and Q8, it does come with a new 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Audi's latest MMI user interface. It also gets Audi's virtual cockpit system along with configurable interior lighting and a few other new features as well. The quality of materials used on the inside too have been improved.

Under the hood, the Audi A4 facelift will be powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder TFSI petrol engine in India. This engine produces 190hp and the A4 will even get a 12V mild-hybrid system for the first time. The engine will come mated to an 8-speed automatic with power being sent to all four wheels via Audi's Quattro system, which will likely be a standard fitment. Audi claims the A4 can sprint from 0-100kph in just 7.3 seconds. When launched early next year, it will rival the likes of the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and the Jaguar XE.
