ANALYSISHow safe is the 2019 Audi A4 Allroad?
The 2019 Audi A4 Allroad achieved a 99/100 Safety Index, placing it in the Exceptional band. This strong showing is largely attributable to a perfect 20/20 for its defect record, with zero recalls on file. Owner complaints for this model year are exceptionally low, with only three unverified reports across five component categories; none of these involved crashes or injuries. In terms of crash protection, the vehicle earned a full 70/70. Its avoidance technology score of 8.5/10 reflects the inclusion of standard forward collision warning and electronic stability control. The absence of standard lane departure warning prevented a perfect score in this category. It is important to note the limitations of the available crash-test data. While the side-impact test received 5 out of 5 stars, overall, frontal, and rollover crash-test ratings were not published by NHTSA. This absence of data is not a negative assessment of safety performance, but it represents an information gap for consumers.
