Audi reveals pricing for U.S. A4 Sedan and Avant

Posted Fri Aug 1 2008 7:38 PM by Siddharth Raja

Audi of America today released pricing for two of its newest entries, the 2009 model year Audi A4 sedan and A4 Avant. Pricing for the base sedan, which comes with a 211hp (157kW) 2.0L TFSI engine, starts at $32,700, while the A4 Avant will start at $34,500. First deliveries will start in September but some dealers will have vehicles available for consumer test drives as early as the week of August 10th.

The Audi A4 sedan can be equipped with either the all-new 2.0 TFSI four-cylinder engine or the 3.2 FSI V6 engine. The 2.0 TFSI engine can be configured for front-wheel drive or with Audi’s quattro AWD system. The 3.2 FSI is offered exclusively in the sedan and with the quattro all-wheel-drive system plus a six-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The A4 Avant will be equipped with the 2.0 TFSI engine and quattro AWD.

New for 2009, the 2.0 TFSI engine features more horsepower and significantly more torque -258 lb-ft (350Nm) than the engine it replaces. Rated at 21mpg (11.2L/100km) in the city and 27mpg (8.7L/100km) on the highway, the 2.0 TFSI engine delivers better fuel economy, and when compared to the AWD versions, better 0-to-60mph times than most of its rivals in this segment.

  Wonder if Audi will grace us with a fuel efficient diesel model, one can only hope I suppose.

  For the A4? I know the SUV based off the Taureg gets a diesel, and I wish we would get the TT diesel as well.

  Audi of north america has confirmed the 3.0TDI in the Q7 and A4, which will likely replace one of my hybrids (especially after having driven this car at infineon extensively where it bloodied the nose of the C300 and IS250 as well as managed to slightly better the 3 series in terms of driving dynamics and power delivery). I'd love to see Audi bring the 2.0TDI over, though I wont complain with better highway mileage then a camry hybrid, gobs more torque, and an infinitely more refined cabin, drive, and more competent chassis.
  
  The moment the A4 TDI reaches our shores next year, I'm sold.

  Audi, BMW and Mercedes, wonder when Caddy will give America a diesel CTS to match.
