By introducing A4 sedan, A4 allroad, and S4, the sportier version, Audi surely showcases determination to maintaining its positions as a leader in the premium segment.

    Exterior design

    The midsize model is definitely more dynamic and sophisticated when compared to older models due to the fact that it now features a completely new design concept. The front of the vehicle reveals a new shoulder line that starts at the corner of the headlight and runs through the edge of the hood. At the side, there are pronounced wheel arches whose design pays homage to the brand’s quattro DNA and the lower set of the shoulder line, which visually lowers the center of gravity.

    All A4 quattro models feature a standard S line exterior, which includes titanium black honeycomb in the Singleframe grille, aluminum silver matte inserts and neat 18-inch 5-double-spoke design wheels.

    For A4 allroad, the design team has ensured gray matte body cladding that helps to highlight the vehicle’s adventurous spirit. The allroad also features a unique Q-design Singleframe grille with vertical chrome slats that emphasize vehicle’s increased ground clearance and ride height.

    The S4 Sedan includes a double-slat alu-optic Singleframe grille, alu-optic exterior side mirror housings, body-colored handles, S model specs and can be specified with black optic package that adds black exterior trim with black exterior mirror housing and neat 19-inch 5-V-spoke-star design wheels in titanium finish.

    2020 Audi A4

    The cabin of all-new A4 models includes great attention to details and numerous new technologies. The entire design concept is focused on the MMI touch display, which features a new MIB 3 infotainment system.

    With new packages and greater value for customers, Audi Connect services is present for all models in the lineup. The system is offered with available Version Unlimited data connection powered by Verizon’s 4G LTE network that delivers fast and secure internet access.

    Additional features include a standard three-spoke multifunction steering wheel with shift paddles, standard power sunroof, standard rear child locks and standard heated eight-way power driver seat with a four-way power lumbar for the driver on A4 FWD models. There’s also a standard three-zone climate control and standard ambient LED interior lights.

    Drivetrain system

    2020 Audi A4

    A4 quattro sedan comes with an agile 2.0-liter TFSI power unit that generates a total of 248hp and 273lb-ft of torque and accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in mere 5.6 seconds. For the A4 allroad this time is 5.9 seconds.

    The 3.0-liter TFSI power unit in the S4 delivers the whooping 349hp and 369lb-ft of torque and finishes the 0-100km/h sprint in a mere 4.4 seconds. This engine is mated to an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, which is further fine-tuned in order to fit the low-end torque of the V6. What is special about this setup is that the lower gears offer short and sporty ratios, while the longer upper gears help reduce the engine revs. Furthermore, every Audi S4 is equipped with quattro all-wheel drive, offering high precision and dynamic handling through active torque distribution to both axles.

    In terms of suspension, all A4 models come with a five-link steel suspension that provides a comfortable and yet agile ride for long distances. There’s also an available sporty suspension that lowers the ride with an additional 23mm.

    The A4 allroad’s standard adaptive damping suspension ensures an increased ground clearance of 34mm over the A4 sedan, achieved through a taller suspension and higher profile tires, making the allroad more capable choice for some off-road action.

    What is special about S4 is that drivers can choose an available S sport package, which adds a sporty damping suspension, red brake calipers and a sport rear differential that enhances cornering agility by actively splitting torque between each of the rear wheels.

  • What happens when 272HP aren’t enough? Meet the powerful B&B Audi A4

     B&B Automobiltechnik Audi A4 8W B9 front viewB&B Automobiltechnik is one of the main featured tuning companies in our blog. Their latest project is based on the favorited Audi A4, equipped with the strongest engine, namely – the 3.0 TDI. As a standard it comes with 272 hp (200 kW) and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) of torque. However, the 272 number wasn’t enough for the driver of this car. So the tuners stepped in with a special three stage conversion program. What is more, there are some changes made to the handling and appearance of the A4, we should also mention. Here are the details.

    Three Stages for Perfect Output

    The first stage pumps up the output of the V6 to 310 hp (228 kW) and 670 Nm (495 lb-ft). Stage 2 brings the numbers to 326 hp (240 kW) with 695 Nm (513 lb-ft). The final stage swells the output to the impressive 350 hp (257 kW) and 725 Nm (535 lb-ft). All three upgrade stages feature adaptation software for the eight-speed Tiptronic transmission. In addition, the factory electronic Vmax limiter was removed.

    In order to achieve 365 hp (268 kW) and 530 Nm (391 lb-ft) of torque, B&B’s Stage 3 conversion can additionally use a bespoke turbocharger with modified downpipe and sports catalyst to increase system flow and reduce exhaust backpressure.

    What happens against the stopwatch? Well, the results are impressive: the 0-100 km/h sprint is reduced from 5.4 sec to 4.5 sec, while the top speed goes up from 250 km/h to 275 km/h.

    If one drives the S4 3.0 TFSI range flagship, equipped with the turbocharged, direct-injection V6, then the stock 354 hp (260 kW) and 500 Nm (370 lb-ft) of torque, then the stages will make it up to 450 hp (330 kW) and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft).

    Other Options Available

    When it comes to output improvement, the B&B recommends adding their thermostatically-controlled oil cooling system, which will keep the engine’s life giving fluids within factory limits. In addition, for better handing and on-road presence, B&B has added a sport spring set, which lowers the ride height by 35 mm.

    Furthermore, the chassis behaviour has been improved via the in-house made coilover suspension that offers the options of adjustable ride height, and separately adjustable damper bounce and rebound control. On the other hand, the electronically controlled DDC coilover kit allows the person behind the wheel to choose comfort or sport settings at the touch of a button.

    Furthermore, the new B&B Automobiltechnik Audi A4 has been dressed with the perfect outfit for an uprated output. The added tailor made sports outfit comprises of high-quality Caractere aerodynamic package, and B&B’s in-house light-alloy wheels in 19 and 20-inch sizes. Of course, behind the alloys, high performance brake system catches the attention. At last, but not least, there is a brand new sports exhaust system and tips along with a sound generator, for more menacing presence in the streets.
