Brilliance comes standard. The Audi A4 is a best seller for Audi, and for good reason. From a willing TFSI engine, hands‑free Bluetooth™ technology, an available Bang & Olufsen™ Sound System and more, it excels at every turn. And then there’s the Avant: a perfect synthesis of style and utility, not to mention an elegant demonstration that form and functioncan keep perfect pace with each other in any situation. Performance that’s more personal, and more pleasurable. Audi Drive Select customizes the handling of the Audi A4 by providing a variety of different settings, from performance-oriented to sheer comfort. The Tiptronic™ automatic transmission offers seamless gear changes. And through it all, quattro all-wheel drive gives the Audi A4 the support of a road-ruling sports car.

As exciting as it is beautiful. The Audi MMI system provides easy access to everything from the A4’s navigation system to your iPod™, all controlled by a single dial. And to take sophistication to the next level, the S line package is available to grace its interior with a hand‑stitched, 3-spoke steering wheel
and a sport suspension fine-tuned by quattro GmbH. In all, the design of the new Audi A4, from the look and touch of every switch to each dynamic line, works to create an extraordinarily aesthetic driving experience.
Audi is 100 years old, and it’s a momentous occasion. After all, few car companies can look back on years of trailblazing innovation to boast a standard for excellence admired the world over. It’s an anniversary that represents ten decades of revolutionary thinking. A belief that automotive power and efficiency are more important in their constant pursuit than their mastery, and that aesthetics and ergonomics only achieve balance under endless scrutiny and refinement. It’s an approach that can be summarized best in just a few words: Vorsprung durch Technik. So that even after 100 years, Audi continues to make every turn in the road as exciting and rewarding as ever.

From the Audi A4 to the R8, Audi constantly strives to achieve a delicate balance between ergonomics and aesthetics. Whether it’s the elegant exterior lines, the clean simplicity of the instrumentation panel or the subtle sheen of each aluminum accent, you’ll find that design and craftsmanship, form and function work together in sublime harmony. It’s here that you’ll discover the meaning of Vorsprung durch Technik, a philosophy in which every aspect of design is driven by the goal to give drivers a distinct “advantage” through integrated, progressive technology. It comes alive as every detail reflects the same exceptional appointments and speaks to the greater ideal of the Audi brand.
The Audi A4 was the first model in the Volkswagen Group to feature the new 1.8 litre 20v engine with five valves per cylinder, based on the unit Audi Sport had developed for their Supertouring race car. A turbocharged version produced 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) and 210 newton metres (155 lb·ft) torque. This technology was added to the V6 family of engines in 1996, starting with the 2.8 litre V6 30v, which now produced 193 PS (142 kW; 190 bhp).

The Audi A4 generation also debuted their new tiptronic automatic transmission on the B5 platform, based on the unit Porsche developed for their 964-generation 911. A wide range of internal combustion engines were available in European markets, between 1.6 and 2.8 litres for petrol engines; and a 1.9 litre diesel engine available with Volkswagen Group's VE technology, capable of achieving a 90 PS (66 kW; 89 bhp) or 110 PS (81 kW; 108 bhp), although Audi's 2.8 litre V6 engine, carried over from the old 80/90 was the only engine option in North America until 1997.

LED Lights
Perhaps the unique LED running lights are the most obvious example of beauty and functionality in glorious combination. Striking looks aside, they also serve to more effectively indicate the vehicle’s presence with headlights and taillights that are brighter, longer lasting and more efficient.
S Line
Call it elegance with attitude. Through a host of custom details, the S line package brings a sportier, aggressive look to an already streamlined experience. Add a larger wheel size, a 3-spoke multi‑function leather steering wheel and a full body kit and suddenly, the little extras have cumulatively become a whole lot more.
Fit and Finish
Open the door of an Audi and it’s clear that even the smallest details have been carefully considered. The highest quality materials are used to sculpt industry-leading surroundings, resulting in a sensory experience unlike any other.
Bang & Olufsen Sound System
There are car stereos, and then there are concert halls on wheels. For the ultimate acoustic driving experience, it couldn’t be anything but the latter. The optional 14‑speaker, 1000‑watt Bang & Olufsen™ Advanced Sound System represents the pinnacle of car audio.
Multi-Media Interface
A visual and tactile marvel, the extraordinarily intuitive MMI dashboard interface is the control centre for all “infotainment” components and vehicle functions. With it, directing everything from Bluetooth connections, a satellite radio or your iPod™ becomes second nature.
Panorama Sunroof
Though the road ahead may be a constant source of excitement, nothing inspires quite like spectacular
views of the sun or the stars. An available Panorama sunroof turns your vehicle into a mobile observatory.
