2006 Audi A4 1.8T Cabriolet

The base model convertible in the mid-size lineup, the 2006 Audi A4 1.8T Cabriolet is front-wheel drive and comes with a choice of a 6-speed manual or CVT seamless transmission.  These are matched to a 1.8-liter, 170-hp turbocharged I4 engine.  The convertible top is power-operated and features a glass window.  Safety is a primary concern, and the 2006 A4 1.8T Cabriolet comes with rollover protection, ABS brakes, traction and stability control, dual front-side and curtain airbags, 16-inch all-season tires, front and rear foglights, headlight cleaners, crash sensors, and a first aid kit.  A tire monitor and rain-sensing wipers are optional.

The 1.8T is much like the 2.0T sedan in terms of features.  Power front seats with power lumbar support are standard.  So is cruise control (with controls on the steering wheel), leather trim, dual-zone climate control, heated mirrors and washer jets, and power windows, locks, and mirrors.  Add-ons give you front and rear heated seats, parking sensors, a wind block, leather seats, navigation system, garage opener, Bluetooth, and satellite radio.  Gas mileage rates around 23/30 mpg.  Smooth handling, good gas mileage, and nice interior layout are some highlights for owners of the 2006 A4 1.8T Cabriolet.  Complaints mention the need for stronger brakes.
