Road Test: 2013 Audi allroad

2012 marks the return of the Audi allroad SUV. John Davis has MotorWeek's road test review.

Almost 10 years later and being able to find these for 15k now has me looking real hard at this car.

[@nickd6451]

My parents bought the 2014 model two days ago, 66k miles. It’s fancier than anything they’ve ever owned and drives so smooth. Hope you picked one out!

[@proboxpepper6752]

Same here

[@wangonguy62]

Stop encouraging crossovers. I'll take this over a Q5 any day and this likely has more space.

[@finnbonner15]

HIS VOICE IS AWSOME!!!!!!

[@davidhalifax]

This Allroad should be popular especially in Canada due to its more compact size.

[@SmitzT]

The average car on the road gets to 60 at around 9 seconds. So 7.7 isn't really lackluster....

[@laurawilliams9338]

I recently found an impeccable, low mileage Allroad for sale and am interested. Thank you for this great video!

If you like driving this is the car for you. Have owned the Outback and was terribly disappointed i.e.:Horrible driving dynamics, butt numbing uncomfortable seat f/r, terrible nav and poor quality sound system, useless roof rack. Fit and finish on par with other appliance like Asian cars. If you care about fit and finish, ergonomics, and cornering ability this or 3 series is the only way to go.

I have the 3.0 diesel. 45mpg on a run. 0-60 in 5.5sec

[@vorsprungdurchtechnik5]

Better than any electrified car will ever be

[@Mieden]

Fwd Audis (except the Golf/A3) use the CVT, Quattro optioned models use the ZF 8 speed.

Good pun this week, John Davis

[@DStabs720]

spell allroad wrong in the title

[@petercotter119]

his voice is cutting through me had to give up

[@TIrizarry14]

same here and you can even afford to get the Grand Cherokee with the Hemi!

[@lawrencepll76]

It should be ALLROAD

[@superman92801]

Hi

[@venom5809]

These things can't sell for crap. Cost too much, no heated rear seats, 4 cylinder and the backseat not fit for adult sized humans. Dealership near me can't sell a single one.

[@williamberne]

People around you should eat less and do more excise.

[@vorsprungdurchtechnik5]

@@williamberne This argument against SUVs is so insantly childish and fatphobic it's hilarious. He isn't wrong at all.

[@C70drvr]

"Station" wagon? I thought this was the 21st century...

[@jamesedmunds6102]

I don't care if you make a Gazillion dollars a year...I'd buy the Subaru Outback. Yes I know its not as luxie...but it will last longer and cost less to maintain. Subies are for the confident people...whom don't need approval from others.

[@TheMisterTroll02]

But audi is way sexier

[@contractki11er]

Maintenance fees and longevity really just depends on how well the owner can take care of their car, an Audi will cost just as much to maintain as a Subi for any diy'er and last just as long.

[@kojimasan444]

FUCK YEAH! SUBARU ALL THE WAY

[@robertrydlewski538]

I am thinking about buying Subaru Outback or Audi. If I will not get Outback 3,5R i will get Audi... Bought cars are good. Subaru drive forever and is cheap. My financial situation will force me to buy Subaru. But Audi are the shit period. The materials, motor etc are way way better. Thats why you pay what you get for. Subaru motor 2.5 sounds funky and is slow compare to Audi 2.0 T. where sounds Sexy and its fast. I use to own Subaru and Audi, I love bought them and I think is silly compare Subaru to Audi.

[@michaelvalentine782]

James Edmunds Wrong. Those kinds of Subaru drivers are the ones always out trying to prove they have nothing to prove. Proving only that the college they have a bumper sticker, license plate frame, and window sticker avertising will unlearn you how to drive. The aggressively passive. The only camping they do is in the passing lane. The reason it's so expensive to insure an Outback. Stop projecting your nonsense onto others and please buy a Rav4.

[@jwickerszh]

What's with the ugly gray plastic robe ?

[@EthanL21800]

I’m assuming you already know now but in case you were waiting 8 years for a response it’s so you don’t chip or damage paint on dirt roads
