New A4 is touch screen only, which I think is a mistake. 3 series is nice but BMW don’t yet support Android Auto - only Apple CarPlay - and they expect you to pay an annual subscription after 3 years to keep that functionality! I refuse to pay the Apple tax, so until they sort that and support Android, can’t even consider them.
Will be interesting to see what that trim lines are and what technology is now standard and not an option. Did feel the A4 was falling behind there. But equally I do feel while new design is nice, it doesn’t sound like I’m missing too much.
New engine line up is interesting... with 136, 161 and 187bhp 2.0l diesels now (30, 35, 40). I presume that’s how they’ll keep the starting price low, but we’ll probably be paying a fair bit more spec for spec I bet...
