Used 2022 Audi A4 for Sale nearPhoenix, AZ

How much does the 2022 Audi A4 cost?

Prices have softened 16.25% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 630 listings available, which gives you a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Audi A4 a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Audi A4 earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8.33/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Performance, Technology, and Safety.

The A4 stands out as a refined compact luxury sports sedan that still feels fresh, with a rock-solid structure and modern technology. It is also fun to drive, and its safety performance is a major strength.

The trade-offs are clear: the base engine is underwhelming, and the back seat is cramped.

For you, that means the A4 makes the most sense if you want a polished, well-rounded luxury sedan rather than maximum rear-seat space or the strongest entry-level acceleration.

34.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there is some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Audi A4 reliable?

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

The A4’s rock-solid structure and modern technology support its reputation for being a well-sorted used luxury sedan. The expert evaluation also describes it as impressively composed and still feeling current despite its age.

Its performance hardware is refined, with a turbocharged four-cylinder, a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, and standard all-wheel drive. The powertrain is described as smooth and engaging, and the car’s quiet, well-isolated ride adds to the sense that it is built for long-term everyday use.

Long-term ownership risk for used buyers is mainly about choosing the right example, since the base engine is less satisfying and condition will matter more than mileage alone.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Audi A4?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a higher-mileage example or one with optional equipment. Focus on overall condition, signs of prior damage, and whether the car’s features and trim level match the listing.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige trims, and the feature spread is meaningful because the more you spend, the more safety and convenience equipment you get. The base trim is the one most likely to leave you wanting more.
• Powertrain: The 40 TFSI uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 201 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque, while the 45 TFSI raises output to 261 horsepower and 273 pound-feet. Both use a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic and standard all-wheel drive.
• Safety package: Audi Pre Sense includes front and rear collision preparation, forward-collision warning, and automatic emergency braking. Higher trims can add lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, adaptive cruise control with Traffic Jam Assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a safe exit warning system, a surround-view camera system, and Park Assist.
• Infotainment: The A4 uses a 10.1-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus Audi Connect, wireless smartphone charging, and a 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The 40 TFSI is rated at 29 mpg combined, while the 45 TFSI is rated at 27 mpg combined.

Which 2022 Audi A4 trim should I buy?

The 2022 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 makes sense if you want the lowest price and the core A4 experience. It gives you the standard luxury basics, but it is also the trim most likely to feel stripped compared with the higher versions.
• Premium Plus: This is the best-value choice for most shoppers because it should strike the best balance between equipment and price. If you want a more satisfying used A4 without stretching to the top trim, this is the one to target.
• Prestige: This is the fully loaded version, and it is the right pick if you want the most advanced safety and convenience content. It suits you best if you want the most complete A4 experience and do not mind paying for it.

Audi Pre Sense is standard, while the more advanced driver-assistance features are added as you move up the trim ladder.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Audi A4?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 34.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 630 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 16.25% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 82.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $23,014, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Audi A4's resale value?

The current average of $23,014 sits slightly below last year's $27,480.

That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable point in the cycle. For a future seller, it also means resale value will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and how well the car is equipped.

Because the A4 still has strong appeal as a refined luxury sedan with modern tech and solid safety, well-kept examples should remain easier to move than neglected ones.

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

Is the 2022 Audi A4 safe?

The 2022 Audi A4 earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and a five-star overall rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Audi Pre Sense is the core driver-assistance suite, and it includes front and rear collision preparation, forward-collision warning, and automatic emergency braking. Higher trims can add lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, adaptive cruise control with Traffic Jam Assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a safe exit warning system, a surround-view camera system, and Park Assist.

One caveat is that the adaptive cruise control can react a bit slowly in changing traffic situations, so you should still stay engaged behind the wheel.

Should I buy a 2022 Audi A4 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 34.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 16.25% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It still feels remarkably fresh, with modern technology and strong safety performance.

The bottom line: If you want a used A4 that still feels current, the 2022 is the right path because it combines strong safety, good tech, and a softer price than it had a year ago. If you are mainly shopping on price, a nearby year may still be worth comparing, but the 2022 is the better bet when you want the most balanced mix of value and freshness.
