After owning this car for about four years, I can say it's one of the best cars I've owned. The car is quiet in the city and highway and gets excellent gas mileage. We have the sun package, which is great for living in an area that gets a lot of sun: tinted windows, window shades especially. Everything has held up well considering the large amount of city driving we do. The car has about 60,000 miles on it and we haven't had to do any repairs aside from scheduled maintenance. For longer trips, it's very comfortable and has the benefit of a third row of seats that can be folded down. The back without the third row can comfortably accommodate our two 80+ pound dogs lying down in a large dog bed. We also have a bike rack on the top that can hold four bikes with plenty of room to maneuver them. The bike rack was added from a different company but was easily compatible. I love the style and Audi has done a great job updating it so the newer models aren't much different. I'd buy again!

I love this car. The thing that is best about it is the amount of room it affords in the back for our two large dogs. They share an extra large dog bed in the cargo area and are comfortable. I like that the cargo area is somewhat high so my dogs can lie dog and rest their heads on the back of the back row seat. The third row of seats is great too though I'd like there to a bit more space back there. It can get quite hot because there aren't enough vents for the A/C to reach. I'd definitely buy this car again if they had kept the shape of the car the same. It's looking a bit more like a mini-van now. Also, I love the diesel engine. We have a TDI and the fuel efficiency is super on the highway and in the city. I'd recommend buying this model but be aware that fixing repairs and maintaining the car is going to cost significantly more for Audi. We just had the back hatch latch replaced for a smooth $600! Worth the money though. Highly recommend.
