CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Audi A4

Summary
With 39 currently listed for sale and an average price of $22,740, 20.5% of 2021 Audi A4 listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Audi A4 4.75 / 5 stars.
61.5% of 2021 Audi A4 listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2021 Audi A4 stands out as a compact luxury sedan that blends strong technology, available all-wheel drive, and a well-rounded driving character. By this model year, it had the more powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with a mild-hybrid drivetrain, rated at 261 hp and 273 lb-ft, which gives it more punch than the base version. Buyers also get the appeal of Audi’s quattro all-wheel drive, which was optional, along with the brand’s Virtual Cockpit digital instrument display for those who want a more modern cabin experience.
The 2021 model also benefits from the fifth-generation A4’s broader equipment list. Standard features included Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a seven-inch MMI screen, leather seats, a sunroof, a rearview camera, and Audi Drive Select. Higher trims added items such as LED headlights, a 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system, blind-spot monitoring, a 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit, and a larger 8.3-inch MMI screen, while the Prestige trim brought a head-up display and a surround-view camera system. A 2020 interior facelift also brought a 10.1-inch touch screen, helping the cabin feel more current.
There are still a few tradeoffs to keep in mind. The A4’s base engines are described as underwhelming, and the back seat is cramped. Even so, the 2021 Audi A4 remains appealing because it combines useful technology, available traction from quattro, and a strong powertrain in a premium sedan that had matured into a well-rounded package by the end of its run.

Pros:smaller steering wheel, made for speed, gas mileage, heated seats, bright lights, lots of controls on steering wheel, Cons: small backseat, difficult to see in rear view mirror with middle seat headrest in & up, light doors, glove box difficult to close, side panel in trunk already loose, have to buy navigation packet to get navigation (but have ability to use Nav. on CarPlay) but still shows on screen , small front storage area and drink holders right up next to dash, so doesn’t fit a bigger mug

Is the 2021 Audi A4 a good car?
Yes — the 4.8/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction, and the 2021 Audi A4’s overview shows a compact luxury sedan with strong technology, available all-wheel drive, and a well-rounded driving character. You also get a more powerful turbocharged engine, Audi’s quattro all-wheel drive as an option, and a cabin that feels more modern thanks to features like Virtual Cockpit and the updated MMI screen. For you, that means a premium sedan that balances everyday usability with upscale tech and traction. 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2021 Audi A4 reliable?
Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The 2021 Audi A4’s overview suggests a mature, well-rounded package with useful technology and a broad equipment list, which can be a good sign for day-to-day ownership. It also benefits from a more powerful engine setup and available quattro traction, both of which can make the car feel more confident and complete. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is making sure you choose a well-kept example, since premium features and complex systems are best bought with a clean maintenance history.
What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Audi A4?
At 70.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has advanced tech features or all-wheel drive, since those systems can be costly to sort out later. Focus on overall condition, service records, and signs of uneven wear so you can separate a clean, well-maintained car from one that only looks good online.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Audi A4?
This is a moderate market, so you can be selective without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 340 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.62% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 70.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $20,854, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2021 Audi A4's resale value?
The current average of $20,854 sits slightly below last year's $23,072.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can matter if you plan to sell later. A lower current average can make the car easier to buy now, but it also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment. Well-kept examples with desirable features should hold buyer interest better than neglected ones, especially in a premium segment where presentation matters.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2021 Audi A4 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2021 if:
- 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 70.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.62% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $22,593, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $20,854 average.
- It feels fresh and modern, with strong technology and a rock-solid structure.
The 2021 is the better primary pick if you want the strongest value and a lower entry price. If you’re more price-sensitive, the 2021 gives you the better shopping opportunity, while the 2022 makes sense if you’re willing to pay more for a newer-feeling alternative.
