“The segment's total package with equal parts tech, luxury, and sportiness.”
Total package? Car and Driver isn't talking about the BMW 3-series. Or even the recently-redesigned Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
In a decision arrived at through extensive and rigorous vehicle testing, the segment-leading entry-level luxury car is the 2017 Audi A4 sedan.
But we're not particularly surprised.
With its breathtaking new design, stunning array of top technology and safety features and systems within its futuristic and driver-focused cabin, the Audi A4 is simply a step above anything else in the segment right now. Its low drag coefficient (a mere whisper at 0.27) makes it one of the most quiet luxury sedans its class, but its turbocharged four-cylinder engine won't let you forget that it’s a true sports car in its heart, and under its hood.

Tony Quiroga, the Car and Driver reviewer, finished his report on the impressive and shockingly understated 2017 Audi A4, with this:
“In the final analysis, Audi’s new A4 is a class leader in refinement, technology, and interior design. Its chassis dynamics and exterior haven’t made as big a leap, but the car remains an adept, if secure, handler wrapped in an elegant four-door envelope. It doesn’t make much noise about it, but the A4 possesses a quiet competence that is as wonderful as it is easily misunderstood.”
