I managed to insert a row with custom font series and font color.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabu}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\begin{document}
  \begin{tabu}{ l | l l l l }
  \rowfont{\leavevmode\color{red}\bfseries}
    A   & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ 
    \hline 
    1   & A & B & C & D \\ 
    2   & A & B & C & D \\ 
    3   & A & B & C & D \\ 
    4   & A & B & C & D \\ 
  \end{tabu}
\end{document}

enter image description here

How can I additionally change the background colour of the row e.g. to black? I experimented with \rowcolor but it returns an error. Perhaps this can be achieved with tabulx?

    do not use the tabu package. It is broken and unmaintained (see the readme here https://github.com/tabu-issues-for-future-maintainer/tabu). Use colortbl, tabularray or nicematrix. – Ulrike Fischer Jun 07 '23 at 07:51
  • Thank you for your comment! Perhaps my question can be answered using tabularx? – Stücke Jun 07 '23 at 08:12
  • If you want to extensively use colors in your tables, you should probably have a look at the nicematrix or tabularray packages. If you only need a few cells colord, colortbl might already be enough. You might want to look at the other solutions provided here https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/26360/47927 (where your code example probably also originates from). – Jasper Habicht Jun 07 '23 at 08:20

You can try tabularray.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{tabularray}
\begin{document}
\begin{tblr}
{
colspec  = {*{5}{Q[c,m]}},
hline{2} = {},
vline{2} = {},
row{1}   = {cmd=\bfseries,bg=black,fg=red},
}
A & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\
1 & A & B & C & D \\
2 & A & B & C & D \\
3 & A & B & C & D \\
4 & A & B & C & D \\
\end{tblr}
\end{document}

With {NiceTabular} of nicematrix.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{nicematrix}

\begin{document}


\begin{NiceTabular}{c|cccc}
\RowStyle[rowcolor=black,color=red,bold]{}
A & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \
1 & A & B & C & D \
2 & A & B & C & D \
3 & A & B & C & D \
4 & A & B & C & D \
\end{NiceTabular}


\end{document}

Output of the above code
