Reviews SummaryWe ’d forgotten just how terrific the Audi A4 can be. The compact luxury sports sedan is over half a decade old now. After a week-long stint in the US equivalent of a 2022 Audi A4 Technik 45 TFSI, we’re reminded of the A4’s fundamental appeal. From its rock-solid structure to its modern technology, nothing about the 2022 A4 telegraphs the car’s age. The A4 remains an excellent choice in a luxury sports sedan. | |
Reviews SummaryIn a perfect world, every driving enthusiast could afford the car of their dreams. In reality, where mortgage or rent payments are due, you’ve got kids to shuttle, and you need enough cargo space to carry groceries, bulk-packaged toilet paper, and road-trip luggage, it can seem as though no car can possibly satisfy your practical requirements and put a smile on your face at the same time. We have good news! The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI is just such a car. | |
