Surprisingly, better than average. The All-Road was made for American
public (who craze after those SUV types). Rest of the world is quite
content with the regular Avant. I guess Audi was trying to fill the void
of SUVness while trying to decide if "real" SUV is necessary. Remember,
the All-Road was conjured up before VW had a plan for that new SUV
platform which is now officially shared with Porsche. And now that
Porsche's gonna come out with a V8 SUV (presumably going head to head with
MB's V8 ML), Ferry probably decided that Audi's gonna play different
segment of the market with that macho-ized Avant. Or has there a plan for
a real SUV for Audi?
