2015 Audi A4: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2015 Audi A4 is more standard equipment across the lineup. Every trim gets S line exterior styling, xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights, LED taillights, and three-zone climate control, but this is not a redesign.
About the 2015 Audi A4
B8.5 generation (2013-2016 facelifted A4), late-cycle year and the second-to-last US sedan model year before the 2017 redesign.
Audi positions the A4 as a compact luxury sedan with clean styling, a high-quality cabin, strong turbocharged performance, and available quattro all-wheel drive for year-round confidence. Its appeal is not flash; it is the polished mix of upscale materials, tidy design, useful technology, and balanced road manners. Compared with rivals, the A4 leans on interior quality, everyday comfort, and secure handling rather than trying to be the loudest or most aggressive car in the class.
The 2015 A4 range starts with the Premium, which combines a 220-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with leather seats, a sunroof, and the newly standard lighting and S line exterior. Premium Plus focuses on everyday comfort with heated front seats, keyless entry, and driver-seat memory. Prestige is the technology-focused trim, with navigation, Bang & Olufsen audio, blind-spot monitoring, and a rearview camera.

“No doubt an expensive car, but I believe the A4 delivers as promised and justifies the price point. While you can certainly purchase a less expensive vehicle, in my experience (this is my 2nd A4) there is no other vehicle that can meet all of the Audi's attributes at a comparable price. I guess that's what you'd term "value."”
