Audi A4 Sales Figures

Audi A4

Here you will find monthly and yearly United States and Canadian sales figures for the Audi A4. The A4 was Audi’s compact luxury sedan and, in Audi’s own words, the brand’s best-selling sedan. Figures include the A4 and S4 sedans but not the A4 allroad. The B9-generation A4 reached the U.S. market in 2017 and was refreshed for the 2020 model year, and 2025 was its final U.S. model year: Audi’s all-new 2025 A5 lift-back replaces both the A4 sedan and the A5 Sportback.

Audi A4 Generations

The A4 spans five generations (B5 through B9), with Audi’s internal numbering continuing the Audi 80 lineage. For the 2025/2026 model year, the A4 nameplate ends as Audi consolidates its lineup: even numbers will designate EVs, odd numbers will denote combustion models. The A4’s successor carries the A5 name on an all-new Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) architecture.

First Generation (B5): 1996-2001

The B5 debuted in Europe for 1995 and arrived in North America as a 1996 model, replacing the Audi 80 and establishing the A-prefix naming convention. Built on the Volkswagen Group PL45 platform shared with the Passat, it offered a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (148 hp) or 2.8-liter V6 (172 hp) with five-speed manual or automatic transmissions. The 1999 facelift introduced the S4 with its 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6 producing 261 hp. Audi sold approximately 1.7 million B5 units globally across sedans, Avant wagons, and eventually a cabriolet.

Second Generation (B6): 2002-2005

The B6 brought a new PL46 platform with increased dimensions and improved rigidity. Base engine remained the 1.8T, while a 3.0-liter V6 (220 hp) replaced the 2.8. The Tiptronic automatic gave way to the Multitronic CVT on front-drive models. The S4 jumped to a 4.2-liter V8 with 339 hp for 2003, marking the first V8 in this segment. Sedan, Avant, and Cabriolet body styles carried over, with the convertible built by Karmann.

Third Generation (B7): 2006-2008

Internally considered a comprehensive refresh rather than a full redesign, the B7 retained the B6’s PL46 platform but adopted Audi’s singleframe grille design language from the A6. The 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder (200 hp) with direct injection replaced the aging 1.8T, while the 3.2-liter V6 FSI produced 252 hp. The RS4 returned to the lineup with a naturally aspirated 4.2-liter V8 making 420 hp. The B7 marked the end of Audi offering three distinct body styles in this segment for the U.S. market.

Fourth Generation (B8): 2009-2016 (North America)

The B8 represented a ground-up redesign on the Modular Longitudinal Platform (MLB), repositioning the engine and front axle to improve weight distribution from the traditional nose-heavy Audi layout to roughly 55:45 front-rear. Wheelbase stretched to 110.6 inches. North American models launched with a 2.0 TFSI (211 hp) and 3.2-liter V6 (265 hp), though the V6 was later dropped. The S4 switched from the V8 to a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 (333 hp), reducing price and improving efficiency. A 2012 facelift brought styling updates and an available eight-speed automatic on quattro models. The U.S. Avant was discontinued after 2012 in favor of the allroad.

Fifth Generation (B9): 2017-2025

The current B9 arrived for 2017 with Audi’s Virtual Cockpit digital instrumentation, MMI infotainment, and a focus on lightweight aluminum construction. U.S. models offer only the 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder, initially in 190 hp and 252 hp variants, updated to 201 hp and 261 hp with 12-volt mild hybrid technology in 2020. The S4 retained a turbocharged (no longer supercharged) 3.0-liter V6 with 349 hp. A 2020 facelift brought revised exterior styling and updated technology.

The Transition: B10 and the A5 Name (2025-2026)

The A4 nameplate ends with the B9 generation. Under Audi’s new naming convention, even numbers will designate electric vehicles while odd numbers remain combustion-powered. The A4’s replacement, internally coded B10, carries the A5 name and debuts on Audi’s Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) architecture. The 2025/2026 A5 grows 2.6 inches longer with a 2.7-inch wheelbase stretch, offers a 268 hp 2.0 TFSI (or 362 hp V6 in the S5), and adopts fastback styling rather than traditional three-box sedan proportions. The A4 Allroad is discontinued with no direct replacement for North America.
