2016 Audi Allroad review

1. Extra off-road capability

Whether it is a bit more snow than predicted or a campsite that's off the beaten path, the 2016 Allroad has you covered. In addition to the Quattro all-wheel-drive system, the Allroad has 7.1 inches of ground clearance. That will give you a bit more room during foul weather or even some light trail driving.

2. Great standard features

Take a look at the base Premium trim and you'll find that it's not basic whatsoever. You'll get standard interior features like leather upholstery with eight-way power front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, and more. On the outside, you get standard features like 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic xenon headlights with LED running lights and taillights, and heated mirrors.

3. Tech upgrades

Check out the MMI Navigation Plus package and you'll add great tech like Audi Connect online services (including mobile Wi-Fi), a navigation system, voice controls, and Bluetooth^® streaming audio.

If you want more, the Technology package (available on the Premium Plus) has everything in the MMI Navigation Plus package as well as a blind-spot monitoring system, a rearview camera, rear parking sensors, and a Bang & Olufsen^® sound system

4. Wagon practicality

The 2016 Allroad is ready to help tackle your next family road trip. You'll get 27.6 cu-ft of space behind the rear seats. If you have more gear than passengers, drop the rear seats and you'll get a full 50.5 cu-ft. A luxury wagon with all that space will make a great traveling companion regardless of your destination.

5. Sporty upgrades too

Audi is known to make some pretty fun vehicles, and if you want to err on the sporty side, the 2016 Allroad is ready. In addition to the peppy 2.0L turbo engine, enthusiasts can get the Sport package, which is available on the Premium Plus trim. That adds that upgraded front sport seats, a sport steering wheel with shift paddles, and Audi's Drive Select system to dial in just the right driving experience.
