Is the 2017 Audi A4 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.47/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.

Driver feedback emphasizes that the car feels refined, comfortable, and well put together, with the kind of smooth handling and premium interior execution that tends to support confidence over time.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about the car’s appeal and more about buying one that has been poorly maintained or heavily used without proper documentation.

What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Audi A4?

At 55.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a car with advanced driver-assistance features or higher-mileage use. Pay close attention to bodywork consistency, warning lights, brake feel, and whether the technology and safety systems operate as intended.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Premium trim includes front-wheel drive, a 7-speed automated manual transmission, 17-inch aluminum wheels, HID headlights, leather seats, triple-zone automatic climate control, a 10-speaker sound system, and forward-collision warning with front and rear automatic emergency braking. Premium Plus adds S-line exterior trim, larger 18-inch wheels, LED headlights, parking-assist sensors, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, passive keyless entry, and SOS emergency calling. Prestige adds Audi Virtual Cockpit, navigation with handwriting recognition, Audi Connect services, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, a heads-up display, and a 360-degree top-view camera system.
• Powertrain: The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine makes 252 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, and the Quattro all-wheel-drive system is available with torque-vectoring and a self-locking center differential. The car is described as quick, refined, and capable of strong acceleration, with Audi citing a 0-to-60 mph time as low as 5.7 seconds.
• Safety package: Audi Pre-Sense Basic and Pre-Sense City are standard, with Pre-Sense City adding forward collision warning, front and rear automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian detection. Higher trims add blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic assist, lane-departure warning and assist, turn assist, Pre-Sense Rear, and automatic high-beam headlights.
• Infotainment: The MMI system uses an 8.3-inch screen, handwriting recognition, and voice control. Audi Virtual Cockpit is available on Prestige, and Audi Connect adds a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, Google Earth imagery, and remote vehicle functions.
• Fuel efficiency: Audi says the Quattro version gets 27 mpg in combined driving, and the test loop returned 23.1 mpg.

Which 2017 Audi A4 trim should I buy?

The 2017 Audi A4 is offered in 3 trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus, Prestige.

Here's the short version:

• Premium: This is the entry point, but it still gives you a strong core package with leather seats, triple-zone climate control, and standard forward-collision warning with front and rear automatic emergency braking. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the redesigned A4 and can live without the richer tech and convenience upgrades.
• Premium Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds S-line exterior trim, LED headlights, parking-assist sensors, passive keyless entry, SOS emergency calling, and access to more of the A4’s desirable technology. If you want the sweet spot between price and equipment, this is the one to focus on.
• Prestige: This is the most fully equipped version, adding Audi Virtual Cockpit, navigation, Audi Connect, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, a heads-up display, and a 360-degree top-view camera system. Choose this if you want the most advanced tech and driver-assistance content the A4 offers.

The Prestige trim is the only version with adaptive cruise control with traffic-jam assist, active lane-departure warning and assist, automatic high-beam headlights, adaptive damping suspension, and the Warm Weather Package with ventilated front seats and rear side window sunshades.

What is the 2017 Audi A4's resale value?

The current average of $13,639 sits slightly below last year's $14,921.

That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer but may limit upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy well and keep the car in strong condition, you may be better positioned than someone who pays closer to the top of the range. The A4’s premium image and technology story should still help it remain appealing to future shoppers, especially if the car is clean and well documented.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.47/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2017 Audi A4 safe?

The A4 earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

It earns a 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Audi Pre-Sense Basic is standard, and Pre-Sense City adds forward collision warning, front and rear automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian detection. Higher trims add blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic assist, lane-departure warning and assist, turn assist, Pre-Sense Rear, and automatic high-beam headlights.

One caveat is that the automatic emergency braking system can feel intrusive in some situations, so you should test the calibration carefully during your inspection drive.

Should I buy a 2017 Audi A4 or consider a different year?

It combines the redesign, strong owner satisfaction, and a softer market price in a way that makes it especially appealing right now.
