One of those vehicles is still around and continuing its evolution, the other one stopped because it has been picked off caused by natural selection.
Several problems existed with the Audi Allroad. It was a stop gap between their wagons established off their sedans and an real SUV. Its not really an SUV but not really a good wagon. If I remember properly, Audi was producing Avant variants of the A4, A6, and S6. The A6 was definately more lavish and the A4 may be tuned to be sportier.
The Acura MDX is a sporty car that has more power than most vehicles in its class, V6 engines in that class usually aim for high MPG's. it's lauded for having a appointed interior and a good mix of comfort and sportiness.
In terms of safety, they are both good choices. Reliabilty is where Acura pulls ahead because pre owned Audi's tend to be less dependable. VW/Audi's can get really costly if they have to be repaired without a warranty due to weak dollar to euro.

Acura is more dependable than VW.
The MDX is a pleasure to drive too.

i think the best car could be the Acura MDX its fast, sporty, and
reliable. I have a 1989 Honda MDX and has 157,538 miles on it and still runs.
GO WITH THE Acura MDX it's awesome
