The topic of Audi A4L has always been of great interest to me. From my experience, it has gone through 3 generations. The first generation was based on the B8 platform, launched in 2008, with a wheelbase specifically lengthened for the Chinese market, focusing on improving rear space and ride comfort. The second generation, the B9 platform, debuted in 2015, introducing the virtual cockpit and more advanced engine technology, making the driving experience more intelligent. The third generation, the B10 platform, was just released in 2023, enhancing electrification options and autonomous driving assistance features. Each generation has seen upgrades in the powertrain and interior, such as fuel efficiency and noise insulation improving year by year. Many owners have reported that older-generation used cars are affordable but lack technological features, while newer generations are packed with high-tech features but come with a higher entry barrier. Choosing which one depends on budget and usage needs. Overall, the changes across these 3 generations reflect the evolution of preferences for luxury sedans in the Chinese market.
