Audi is working on a comprehensive update for its A4 sedan which is expected to be revealed early in 2020.

In 2018, Audi quietly introduced a mild model year update to its A4 sedan and while the changes were mostly cosmetic, a full-blown facelift is currently underway to bring the A4 up to speed so that it can effectively compete against the all-new BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

Our spy photographers have captured images of camouflaged A4 test mules winter testing in Europe and can be seen wearing a thoroughly revised grilled and a new headlight and daytime running light design. The rear bumper has also been reworked, now sporting rectangular tailpipes.

With the arrival of the new 3 Series, Audi will have to up its interior game and the facelifted A4 is expected to bring a host of changes in terms of design and technology, which will likely follow direction from the A6. Changes to engine options are also expected but details will emerge as development progresses. We will keep you updated as soon as more details become available.
