Top 10: Cars, SUVs Ideal for Winter Priced at Under $5,000 for 2019-2020

Audi A4

Who says you can’t enjoy a bit of automotive luxury for under $5,000? The Audi A4 sedan (or wagon) is maybe not the best choice if you’re focused on long-term reliability, especially if the pre-owned model you’re ogling hasn’t been properly maintained. But the Quattro all-wheel drive system – careful here, some A4s were produced with front-wheel drive – is simply marvelous in winter. 

Add to the equation a set of proper winter tires and you have a comfortable, even luxurious car that will steer you right when the weather turns bad this winter.

“… the Audi A4 2.0T quattro is a driver's car, not a snoozer's car. It combines the benefits of good fuel economy and excellent all-weather traction with exceptional handling and spirited acceleration. It also accommodates plenty of cargo, be it human or otherwise, while looking simply stunning in the process. Go quattro.”
