Used Audi Saloon for sale

What types of Audi saloon cars are there?

Audi has one of the most extensive saloon lineups of any manufacturer, so there’s one to fit every single size and category, right from compact and mid-sized models to executive and luxury saloons.

You’ll have endless fuel type choices, too, with petrol, diesel, mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric all available across different used Audi saloons for sale.

Some come with estate options, while others are already lengthened versions of shorter cars like the A3 hatchback.

Popular Audi saloon cars

Audi’s most popular saloons are the A4 (rebranded A5 in 2024), which faces stiff competition from the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class and Volvo S60, and the A6, which is a bigger model that goes head-to-head with the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes E-Class and Volvo S90.

If you’re the type who likes to be driven around in luxury, then you could also consider the A8. It’s Audi’s flagship saloon, and it’s cheaper than the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes S-Class but no less luxurious.

On the other end of the scale, the A3 Saloon is Audi’s smallest saloon. It’s similar in size to the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé and Mercedes A-Class Saloon.

Standout Audi saloon features

Audi’s advanced interiors stand out above the rest, with the Virtual Cockpit installed behind the steering wheels of many Audi saloons. It’s a digital instrument cluster with much, much more, such as mapping and media.

There’s also plenty of safety and driver assistance kit on board to make driving more effortless, with adaptive cruise control, lane assist and adaptive Matrix LED headlights all available.

On the practicality front, Audi saloons stand out for their huge boots. They might be hidden behind a relatively narrow opening, but they can definitely take a lot of luggage.

Audi saloon vs. estate

Audi saloons have a sportier and more traditional design – ask a child to draw a car and it’ll probably look like a saloon, just maybe not as elegant as an Audi saloon.

Because of their shape, they tend to be more aerodynamic and therefore more efficient.

Audi’s estates, badged ‘Avant’, are ideal for families, outdoor enthusiasts or just those who need more space. They tend to have slightly larger boots, but considerably more practical hatchback-style boot openings.

Who are Audi saloon cars suitable for?

Many business drivers enjoy owning an Audi saloon because it has premium levels of comfort, refinement and quality.

This makes them particularly common among long-distance commuters who want a smooth and reliable ride, but also for those with an eye on the pennies because used Audi saloons are especially economical.

Families might also want to buy a used Audi saloon for sale, especially those whose kids are more grown up and can appreciate and look after a nice car.
