Audi A42002-08 models mfg. after Feb. 20022008 Top Safety Pick 2008 Audi A4: good performance in front, side, and rear tests and standard electronic stability controlFRONTAL OFFSET TESTOVERALL EVALUATION: GoodStructure/safety cage Injury measures Restraints/dummy kinematicsHead/neck Chest Leg/foot, left Leg/foot, rightGood Good Good Good Good GoodImportant: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.Test details:The Audi A4 was redesigned for the 2002 model year. Audi A4s manufactured after February 2002 include structural changes to improve occupant protection in frontal crashes. (Note: Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on or near the driver door.)The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has evaluated the crashworthiness of a 2002 A4 with the structural changes in a 40 mph frontal offset crash test into a deformable barrier.The frontal offset crash test ratings also apply to the station wagon version of the A4, known as the A4 Avant, beginning with 2002 models manufactured after February 2002.Restraints/dummy kinematics � Dummy movement was well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head hit the roof rail and B-pillar.Injury measures � Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity. Head acceleration from the roof rail hit was low, and it was negligible from the B-pillar contact.
