About the 2013 Audi allroad
A4-based allroad sold in the U.S. from 2013-2016; 2013 is the first U.S. model year of this generation.
Audi positioned the allroad as a luxury wagon for shoppers who wanted crossover usefulness without moving to a taller SUV. The pitch was wagon cargo room, standard quattro traction, extra ride height for rough weather and dirt roads, and the polished cabin and road manners of an A4. Compared with small luxury SUVs, the allroad stood out by feeling lower, sleeker, and more car-like while still offering real bad-weather confidence and everyday practicality.
The 2013 allroad blends the everyday comfort of an Audi wagon with raised suspension, standard all-wheel drive, protective body cladding, and 7.1 inches of ground clearance. Premium focuses on the essentials with leather seating and a panoramic sunroof, Premium Plus adds heated seats and a power tailgate, and Prestige brings navigation, blind-spot monitoring, and a 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system.
