The 2009 Audi A4 2.0T quattro Premium is a compact luxury sedan with all-wheel drive (Audi’s “quattro” system), fitted with a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It blends sporty performance, premium interior features and the prestige of the Audi brand with practical daily usability.
Engine & Performance
Engine: 2.0-litre turbocharged inline-4 with direct injection and intercooler.
Power output: ~211 hp in this configuration.
Torque: ~258 lb-ft (≈350 Nm) in the quattro version.
Transmission & drivetrain: With quattro AWD standard in this trim, 6-speed Tiptronic automatic.
Performance: 0-60 mph time estimated around 6.3-6.6 seconds for the 2.0T quattro version.
Fuel economy: ~22-23 mpg city, ~27-30 mpg highway for the AWD model.
Exterior Features
Body style: 4-door sedan with premium-luxury styling: clean lines, Audi’s distinctive front grille, upscale details.
Dimensions: Length ~185.2 inches (~4,703 mm), width ~71.9 inches (~1,826 mm), height ~56.2 inches (~1,427 mm).
Equipment highlights (Premium trim): Typically alloy wheels, Xenon headlights, premium finish touches, optional sunroof, etc.
Drive & usability: The quattro AWD gives it confident all-weather performance, better traction than many FWD rivals.
Interior & Comfort
Seating: Accommodates 5 passengers.
Materials: As a luxury brand vehicle, the cabin uses higher grade materials relative to many mainstream cars of the era. In the Premium trim you’ll find features like leather or leather-combination upholstery (depending on option), multi‐zone climate, good build quality.
Comfort & space: Good front seat room; rear seats are reasonably comfortable for the class. The ride balances sportiness with refinement.
Features: Infotainment and comfort features in Premium trim may include a premium audio system, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-zone or tri-zone climate control (depending on configuration), and upscale finishing.
Technology & Safety
Audi’s safety package: Standard safety equipment includes front and side airbags, stability control, traction control, ABS brakes, and the benefit of all-wheel drive for stability.
Infotainment/technology: Depending on options you may find navigation system, upgraded audio, driver assistance features (for 2009 standards).
Build quality: Audi vehicles of this era tend to have solid build and good NVH (noise/vibration/harshness) control — refined compared to many non-luxury competitors.
Cargo Space
Trunk/cargo capacity: For the sedan version, around ~12.0-13.4 cubic feet in many cases.
Usability: The sedan layout means less cargo flexibility than a wagon, but adequate for everyday luggage/groceries for a compact luxury car.
Why It Stands Out
Performance + prestige: With a turbocharged engine and quattro AWD, it offers spirited driving in a luxury package.
Luxury and refinement: As an Audi, it brings upscale feel, nicer materials and a more premium experience than many mainstream compacts.
All-weather capability: The AWD system makes it more versatile in seasonal or slippery conditions.
Solid crossover appeal: For someone wanting a bit of sportiness with practicality, this model hits a good balance.
Points to Consider / Possible Drawbacks
Maintenance & ownership costs: Luxury brands often entail higher servicing costs than mainstream cars (parts, labour).
Fuel & running costs: While decent for its performance class, fuel efficiency isn’t as strong as some smaller non-turbo, FWD competitors.
Age-related wear: Given its year (2009), condition will depend heavily on maintenance history, previous usage, and how well it was looked after.
Technology ageing: Some features will now be “older tech” (infotainment screens, connectivity, driver assist) compared to newer vehicles.
