  • 2016 Audi S4 Avant Debuts Today at 2015 FIAA! [VIDEO]

    2016 Audi S4 AvantAudi will present the latest S4 and S4 Avant models at the 2015 FIAA in Frankfurt. The models are constructed to deliver flexibility, light weight and of course, tons of gadgets. So, let’s see what is going on in the Audi camp and let’s find out what could we expect at this year’s FIAA.

    Drivetrain System

    The latest Audi models come with an especially created V6 unit with petrol direct injection and turbocharge system. It is a 3.0 TFSI engine which provides a total of 354 hp (260 kW) and 500 Nm of torque and it is paired to a new eight-speed tiptronic transmission. This system outstrips its predecessor in every aspect and now it is even built with light-weight materials.

    This system allows the S4 to go from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.7 seconds and from this start it can chase the top speed, electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).

    And along with the drivetrain and the gearbox, the S4 and S4 Avant models also offer and impressive straight-line stability via the redesigned suspension. The five-link system on the front and rear axle separates the longitudinal and transverse forces, ensuring maximum handling and flexibility in every road situation.

    Design

    The latest S4 models has a lot to demonstrate, when it comes to design and style. At the front, the Singleframe grille and the nicely done horizontal lines enhance the feel of massiveness and width. Furthermore, the bumpers and the air inlets are completely reshaped and many of the additional parts are now painted in graduated matt gray and chrome colors.

  • Vorsteiner Transforms Audi S4 Series Sedan

    Vorsteiner-Audi-S4-Series-Sedan-THUMBThe latest exclusive vehicle transformed by the specialists at Vorsteiner is the Audi S4 Series Sedan. The car looks stunning thanks to the added Aero Kit, of course made by carbon fibre. The S4 Sedan is equipped with Audi’s exceptional 3.0 L TFSI supercharged V6 engine.

    The latter has been chosen as one of Ward’s 10 Best Engines for 2012 list. One of the resons for this is that the unit delivers 333 horsepower (245 kW) and 425 Nm (325 lb.-ft.) of torque. It has all-aluminium structure and four vane Roots-style supercharger. This makes it easier for the powertrain to behave like V8 one but at the same time to remain economical.

    The same engine is utilized in A6 sedan, A7, Q7 and S5. When equipped with manual transmission, it offers an acceleration time of 4.9 seconds for the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h. Now these figures can be transformed to even better ones due to Vorsteiner’s Aero Kit.

    Its parts are made of Autoclaved Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber which gives them superior stiffness, aerospace strength and durability, when compared to traditional hand laid carbon fiber composites. What wxactly has been added here are the following elements: Carbon Fiber Front Add-On Spoiler, Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser and Carbon Fiber Deck Lid Spoiler.

  • Audi Does It Again – 3.0 L TFSI V6 on Ward’s Top Ten List

    This just in: Audi’s 3.0 L TFSI supercharged V6 engine appears on Ward’s 10 Best Engines 2012 list  for a third consecutive year. WardsAuto is an automotive technology watchdog which has been gathering data and conducting analysis of engineering advancements for 85 years now.

    For Ward’s 2012 engine list, 36 “contenders” were probed for their power, technology, fuel economy, noise, vibration and harshness. Additional criteria required each engine to be in a regular-production U.S.-specification model on sale no later than first-quarter 2012 and that vehicle that carries the engine should not exceed 55 000$.

    “With so many engines featuring gasoline direct-injection and forced induction, we’re pleased to have a list that is rich in technology,” says Drew Winter, editor-in-chief of WardsAuto World (the company’s monthly magazine). “Plus, every engine reinforces the idea that even fuel-efficient vehicles must be fun to drive.”

    The TFSI provides 310 units of horsepower and the respectable 325 lb.-ft. of torque. Because of the all-aluminium structure of the engine and  four vane Roots-style supercharger, the TFSI is able to impersonate V8 behaviour while remaining an economical V6.

    In 2012, you’ll be able to find the 3.0 TFSI in cars such as the 2012 A6 sedan, 2012 Audi A7, the Audi Q7 and also in the S4 and S5.
