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

At 56.6% 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 the car has any signs of prior bodywork or inconsistent maintenance. Focus on condition details that matter most in a luxury sedan: interior wear, electronics behavior, braking feel, and whether the car’s driver-assistance features operate as expected.

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 head-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 setup is described as torque-vectoring with a self-locking center differential. The car is tuned to feel quick and responsive, with a 7-speed dual-clutch automated manual gearbox and Drive Mode Select settings that change the car’s character.
• Safety package: Audi Pre-Sense Basic and Pre-Sense City are standard, along with 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 enhancement, and automatic high-beam headlights. Some of the more advanced driver-assistance features are reserved for the Prestige trim.
• Infotainment: The A4 uses an MMI infotainment display with an available 8.3-inch screen, and the system is controlled through console inputs, steering-wheel controls, or voice recognition rather than touch. Audi Virtual Cockpit is a standout upgrade, and Audi Connect adds connected services, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, and remote access features.
• Fuel efficiency: The Quattro model is said to return 27 mpg in combined driving, though 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, and it gives you the core A4 experience with the turbocharged engine, standard safety tech, leather seats, and the basic luxury essentials. If you want the lowest-cost way into the redesigned A4, this is the trim to start with.
• Premium Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds the equipment that makes the A4 feel more upscale, including LED headlights, parking sensors, the Bang & Olufsen audio system, passive keyless entry, and access to more of the car’s desirable technology and driver-assistance features.
• Prestige: This is the trim to choose if you want the fullest tech and convenience experience, including Virtual Cockpit, navigation, blind-spot monitoring, a head-up display, and the 360-degree camera system. It also unlocks the most advanced driver-assistance setup.

The safety package is strongest on the Prestige trim, where several advanced features are bundled together.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Audi A4?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient and compare listings carefully.

• Deal availability: 32.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 865 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.25% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 56.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $13,534, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2017 Audi A4's resale value?

The current average of $13,698 sits slightly below last year's $14,768.

That kind of price movement suggests the A4 has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. If you shop carefully now, you may have less downside left than a buyer who paid closer to the model’s earlier average.

The flip side is that resale value will still depend on condition, mileage, and equipment, so a well-kept example should be easier to move later than one with accident history or neglected maintenance.

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 2017 Audi A4 earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

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

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

One caveat is that some of the most advanced safety and driver-assistance features are reserved for higher trims, so you’ll want to confirm exactly which systems are included on the specific car you’re considering.

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

If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2017 if:

• 32.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 56.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.25% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.47/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• For 2017, Audi’s redesign gives the A4 a fresh start, and the model is presented as a key example of the brand’s broader design, engineering, and technology shift.

The bottom line: The 2017 A4 makes the most sense if you want the redesigned car and you value its mix of style, tech, and driving polish. If you’re mainly shopping on price, you can still find attractive listings, but you should be selective and verify condition carefully before buying.
