What Changed

The redesigned A4 Avant is longer by 5 inches and wider by 2 inches. Styling highlights include Audi's single-frame grille, headlamps with LED daytime running lamps, a more aggressive roofline and angular LED tail lamps. A more powerful 2.0L TFSI four-cylinder (211 horsepower, 258 lb-ft torque) becomes the base engine. A 3.2L V6 is also available on sedan models. Entry-level 2.0L models are front-wheel-drive with optional all-wheel-drive. All-wheel-drive is standard on 3.2L models. The S4 performance model skips the 2009 model year.
