The Audi A4 is a line of compact executive cars produced since 1994 by the German car manufacturer Audi, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Grouping.

The A4 has been congenital in five generations and is based on the Volkswagen Group B platform. The first generation A4 succeeded the Audi 80. The automaker's internal numbering treats the A4 as a continuation of the Audi lxxx lineage, with the initial A4 designated every bit the B5-series, followed by the B6, B7, B8, and the B9. The B8 and B9 versions of the A4 are built on the Volkswagen Group MLB platform shared with several models and brands across the Volkswagen Grouping.

The Audi A4 car layout consists of a front-engine design, with transaxle-type transmissions mounted at the rear of the engine. The cars are forepart-bicycle drive, or on some models, "quattro" all-cycle drive.

The A4 is available as a sedan and station wagon. Historically, the second (B6) and third generations (B7) of the A4 also included a convertible version. For the fourth generation (B8) and onwards, the convertible, along with a new coupé and v-door liftback variant, was spun-off by Audi into a new nameplate called the Audi A5.

The first generation Audi A4 (known internally as the Typ 8D) debuted in October 1994,^{[4] [5]} with production starting November 1994 and European sales commencing in January 1995 for the 1995 model yr. North American sales later began in September 1995 for the 1996 model year.^[half-dozen] Information technology was built on the Volkswagen Group B5 (PL45) platform, which it shared with the 4th generation Volkswagen Passat (B5, Typ 3B). It had a front-mounted longitudinal engine and front-bicycle drive. Many variations of the A4 were also available with Audi'south quattro four-wheel bulldoze organization. The A4 was initially introduced as a four-door saloon/sedan; the Avant (estate/wagon) was introduced in November 1995 and went on sale in February 1996.

Development began in 1988, with the showtime design sketches being created afterward that year. By 1991, an exterior design by Imre Hasanic was chosen and frozen for November 1994 production by 1992. The interior pattern was afterwards finalized in 1992, with pilot production commencing in the first half of 1994. Development concluded in the third quarter of 1994, preceding November 1994 start of production.^{[7] [eight] [nine] [10]}

A wide range of engines were available in European markets, between ane.6 and 2.8 litres for petrol engines; and a ane.9-litre diesel engine bachelor with Volkswagen Grouping's VE technology, capable of achieving a 90 PS (66 kW; 89 bhp) or 110 PS (81 kW; 108 bhp). The 2.6 and 2.viii-litre V6 engines which had been carried over from the old fourscore/90 proved popular, although in Northward America, the 2.8-litre engine was the only V6 that was available there until 1997. A 2.iv-liter version was developed especially for the Thai market, where import duty jumped from 60 to 100 percent on cars of over 2,400 cc deportation.^[11]

The Audi A4 was the outset model in the Volkswagen Grouping to feature the new 1.8-litre 20v engine with 5 valves per cylinder, based on the unit Audi Sport had developed for their Supertouring race car. A turbocharged i.8T version produced 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) and 210 Due north⋅m (155 lb⋅ft) torque. Moreover, a quattro GmbH special edition of the B5 1.8T was later available in Germany and Europe, for which the engine'southward power output was raised to 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp) and 235 Due north⋅m (173 lb⋅ft). Five-valve engineering science was also added to a reengineered V6 family of engines in 1997, starting with the 2.8-litre V6 30v, which now produced 193 PS (142 kW; 190 bhp), followed by a two.4-litre V6 which was a downsize from the previous two.six litre, 150 hp (112 kW) engine, just with a power increase to 165 PS (121 kW; 163 bhp).

Audi also debuted their new tiptronic automated transmission on the B5 platform, based on the unit Porsche developed for their 964-generation 911. The transmission is a conventional automatic gearbox with a torque converter offering the driver a fully-automatic functioning or manual option of the gear ratios.

The B5 marked Audi'south continued move into the midsize luxury car segment, having started this trajectory notably with later model years of the preceding Audi fourscore/ninety B4. Despite initial mechanical problems, overall build and assembly quality were lauded both by the automotive press and within Audi and Volkswagen, and at the fourth dimension, parent company Volkswagen declared the B5 the company-broad build quality benchmark for all its other models.

Facelift (1999 –2001) [edit]

Sedan (facelift)

Avant (facelift)

The Audi A4 B5 saw about constant modest changes and alterations throughout its 7-year run. Moreover, a pregnant facelift was introduced for the 1998 B5 model twelvemonth at the 1997 Frankfurt Motor Show, with sales beginning in Europe in early 1998. The 2.8-litre 30-valve V6 engine replaced the 2.viii-litre 12-valve. A 2.5-litre V6 Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) diesel engine with 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) was standard on the Quattro. A six-speed manual gearbox was available, also as the new high-performance Audi S4, now part of the A4 lineup (the previous S4 had been an Audi 100). Corrective updates included new rear lights, headlights, door handles, and another minor outside/interior changes.

In mid-1998, the 1.8 20vT engine available outside Europe had its ability output raised to 170 PS (125 kW; 168 bhp). The previous KKK K03 turbocharger, although fundamentally unchanged, received revisions on the turbine side to forestall cracking due to heat.^{[ citation needed ]} The 12-valve V6 was replaced by the 30-valve unit which had been available in Europe for two years.

A further facelift took identify across the A4 and S4 platform in February 1999 as a 1999.5 model; changes were largely corrective simply affected many components, such as both front and rear bumpers, the front and rear lights, the center console, and door handles.^[12] This facelift was known at Audi as a Grosse Produktaufwertung (Major Product Upgrade), as was also signified by facelift cars now carrying the denomination "8Dii".

In 1999 Audi also debuted an even higher performance RennSport model (rennsport literally translates every bit racing sport), the RS4 Avant, similar its predecessor RS2, available only in the Avant bodystyle.

The next A4, internally designated Typ 8E, debuted on x October 2000, at present riding on the Volkswagen Grouping B6 (PL46) platform. The automobile's new styling was adult nether Peter Schreyer between 1996 and 1998, inspired by the Bauhaus blueprint language of the C5 (second-generation) Audi A6 introduced in 1997. The 1.6-litre base model powerplant remained unchanged, but virtually other petrol/gasoline engines received either deportation increases, or power upgrades. The 1.viii-litre 20-valve Turbo was at present available in ii additional versions, with 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) or 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp), this 1 with a standard 6-speed manual gearbox, while the naturally aspirated 1.6-litre inline-iv engine and two.eight-litre V6 were replaced by ii.0-litre, and all-aluminium alloy 3.0-litre units, still with five valves per cylinder, the most powerful of which was capable of 220 PS (162 kW; 217 bhp) and 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft) of torque. The 1.9 Turbocharged Directly Injection (TDI) engine was upgraded to 130 PS (96 kW; 128 bhp), with Pumpe Düse (Unit of measurement Injector) (PD) technology, and was now available with quattro permanent iv-wheel drive, while the 2.5 V6 TDI high-end model was introduced with 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp) and standard quattro. This generation of quattro consisted of default of 50:fifty front to rear dynamic torque distribution. A Bosch ESP 5.seven Electronic Stability Program (ESP) organisation, with anti-lock braking system (ABS), brake assist, and electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) were standard across the range.

The Avant was introduced in June 2001 and arrived in European showrooms in September 2001.^{[ citation needed ]}

For 2002, Audi increased ability in the one.8 Turbo engines to 183 PS (135 kW; 180 bhp) and 190 PS (140 kW; 187 bhp) – the 190 PS variant designated by a ruddy 'T' on the boot lid. Available with four wheel drive and in the ii.v TDI intermediate version to 163 PS (120 kW; 161 bhp). A 2.0 engine with Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) was also bachelor. A yr later, Audi reintroduced the S4, now powered by a 344 PS (253 kW; 339 bhp) four.2 Fifty V8 engine, as well as an A4 Cabriolet convertible variant ( Typ 8H), finally replacing the 80-based Audi Cabriolet which had been discontinued in 2000. It included an electro-hydraulic operated roof, which lowered in under 30 seconds and incorporated some styling changes, such every bit torso-coloured lower bumper and sill panels, which subsequently constitute their way to the saloon version. The Audi A4 Cabriolet version was co-adult and manufactured by Karmann.^[17]

Audi introduced a continuously variable transmission developed by LuK, named multitronic, which replaced the dated conventional automatic transmission on front end-wheel bulldoze models. There have been widespread complaints from consumers effectually the world that the transmission box is prone to electronic glitches every bit well as mechanical problems.^{[18] [19]}

Borrowing from the Audi A6, the kicking was redesigned to remove the extension of the top edge with a smoother fold line. The rear calorie-free assemblies now formed part of the tiptop line, these styling cues were somewhen borrowed past other European as well as Asian manufacturers.^[20]

A sport package named 'Ultra Sport' was introduced in the North American market presently earlier the B6 was replaced by the B7. It included aluminium interior trim and door sills, "Due south line" steering wheel, front end and rear spoilers, side skirts, and quattro GmbH designed 18-inch RS4 alloy wheels.

Interior

Audi introduced a revised A4 in belatedly 2004, with the internal designation of B7. Although given a new platform designation, the B7 was essentially a heavily facelifted and revised version of the B6, with revised steering settings, suspension geometry,^{[ specify ]} new internal combustion engine ranges, navigation systems and chassis electronics (including a new advanced Bosch ESP 8.0 Electronic Stability Plan (ESP) system). The front end grille assembly changed to a tall trapezoidal shape in the same manner every bit the C6 (third-generation) Audi A6; however, the dashboard and interior were most unchanged from the B6 aside from modest detailing.

Audi'due south internal platform nomenclature uses PL46 (passenger car longitudinal platform, size 4, generation half dozen) for both B6 and B7 chassis. The Typ 8E and Typ 8H internal designations are too carried over from the B6 A4 range, simply now have an additional identifying suffix – 8EC for the saloon, 8ED for the Avant, and 8HE for the Cabriolet.

The engine lineup received many additions. The 2005 introduction of Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) on the 2.0 TFSI and 3.2 V6 FSI petrol/gasoline engines, besides as other refinements, increased power output to 200 PS (147 kW; 197 bhp) and 255 PS (188 kW; 252 bhp), respectively. These engines both use a four-valve per cylinder configuration. The prior 5-valve design was incompatible with the FSI direct injection arrangement (due to the siting of the fuel injector, now discharging directly into the combustion chamber). The two.0 Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) diesel engine now combined Pumpe Düse (Unit of measurement Injector) (PD) applied science with 16 valves, while the larger 2.5 TDI V6 diesel was superseded by a 3.0 V6 TDI, offering a 204 PS (150 kW; 201 bhp) model during the year 2005 which was upgraded to a 233 PS (171 kW; 230 bhp) model in 2006. A 2.vii V6 TDI was added later.

Torsen T-2 based quattro permanent iv-wheel drive remained equally an option on about A4 models. Audi retired its 5-speed manual transmissions in favour of a new Getrag half-dozen-speed. Every bit before, multitronic continuously variable manual (CVT), now with selectable 'seven-speeds', was an option on front-wheel drive models, whilst a conventional ZF 6HP six-speed tiptronic automatic transmission was an option on the quattro iv-bike bulldoze models.

In addition to the Audi S4, which carried over the powertrain from the B6 S4 – Audi reintroduced the quattro GmbH developed Audi RS4 (RS for RennSouthwardport) to the lineup, for the outset time on the saloon/sedan and Cabriolet torso, and with a naturally aspirated, only loftier-revving iv.2-litre V8 FSI engine. Another inclusion on the RS4 was the latest generation Torsen T-3 Quattro 4WD system, which uses a 'default' asymmetric twoscore:60 front-rear dynamic torque distribution bias. This new asymmetric center differential was initially merely available on the RS4 only was added a twelvemonth later on the S4. The remainder of the B7 A4 range even so used the T-2 50:50 default dynamic split centre unequal.

A variant, developed by quattro GmbH, was first introduced in May 2005, named "Audi A4 DTM Edition". It was inspired by Audi's race cars of the 2004 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters and was reintroduced in 2006 as a regular option. The two.0T FSI engine received revised software mapping to the ECU, which increased the output to 220 PS (162 kW; 217 bhp) and 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft) of torque. It was available with front-wheel bulldoze, or Quattro four-wheel drive.

The B7 Cabriolet model arrived later than the other 2 torso variants, being offset shown in belatedly 2005 and with sales start in February 2006. New on the Cabriolet was an entry-level 2.0 TDI version, which was not offered with the Multitronic CVT gearbox. The Cabriolet version was produced past Karmann until February 2009.^[24]

In 2007 Audi introduced a version of the B7 named the 'Special Edition', which built on the S-Line specification and also included the black eyes pack, the RS4 style 8J 10 18 '7-arm double-spoke' design blend wheels, Ii-tone Graphite/Blackness Volterra leather, three-spoke sports leather/Alcantara multi-role steering wheel with gear knob and hand restriction handle in Alcantara with silver stitching, ventilated cantankerous-drilled front disc-brakes, black tailpipes and blackness roof rails (Avant model only). Information technology likewise had a ability increase of 20 PS, giving an output of 220 PS on the ii.0T model.

Co-ordinate to 2007 Swedish vehicle inspection information, the Audi A4 Avant with diesel engine is the most reliable vehicle available on the market, with vehicle inspection rejection rate of 0.0% in three-year-old category.^{[25] [ failed verification ]}

SEAT Exeo [edit]

When the successor B8 A4 range was introduced, the B7 series A4 was restyled and rebadged as the SEAT Exeo in 2008 with changes to the front and rear plus interior trim from the A4 Cabriolet. The unabridged Audi B7 A4 production line from Audi'south Ingolstadt plant was dismantled and sent to Volkswagen Group's SEAT manufacturing plant in Martorell, Kingdom of spain.^[26]

Audi released the commencement official pictures of the B8 series A4 in August 2007 and unveiled the machine to the public at the September 2007 Frankfurt Motor Bear witness. Saloon/sedan and Avant (manor/wagon) models are offered. The Avant was unveiled to the public at the March 2008 Geneva Motor Show. For Due north America's destined models, the B8 continued in product for the 2016 model year, while Europe began deliveries on the 2016 B9 model.

The B8 A4 is built on a variant of the Audi Modular Longitudinal Platform, a platform that is too used in the Audi A5 coupé. While prior A4 chassis were limited in wheelbase due to the relationship between the engine, transmission and forepart beam, the MLP allows for a reduced front overhang, resulting in a greater wheelbase length without the aforementioned increase in overall length.^[32] This effectively redistributes the heart of gravity slightly rearwards, improving handling by better balancing vehicle mass between the front and rear axles. The estimated static forepart:rear weight ratio of the B8 A4 is approximately 55:45, depending on trunk manner and engine. The relocation of the steering rack in front end of the axle also improves treatment over previous A4 platforms.^{[ commendation needed ]} Key to the implementation of MLB is the novel mounting of the differential in front of the clutch. This is achieved by driving the flywheel/clutch remotely by means of a 'tiptop chapeau' shaped bulldoze plate, between which the differential lay shaft passes, whilst ability transmission to the terminal drive is via an inclined transfer shaft which runs the length of the transmission unit of measurement. Whilst the platform retains Audi'south "overhung" engine mounting position, the front axle is now 152mm further forward than the previous B6/B7 generation platform.^[33] The transfer shaft, however, has the effect of creating a large "burl" on one side of the transmission tunnel, which on right-mitt drive versions forces the pedals to exist desperately outset, which has attracted criticism from the British motoring press in particular.

The B8 A4 has increased in wheelbase by 160 millimetres (half dozen.three in) and in length by 117 millimetres (four.6 in) over the prior B7, which has allowed for increased rear seating legroom. Although the overall dimensions have increased, the adjourn weight has dropped some 10%. The boot (trunk) has besides increased to 480 litres (17.0 cu ft) for the saloon (sedan) version. The A4 Avant will take a maximum chapters of 1,430 50 (50.v cu ft) with the rear seats folded downwards.

Reception has been mixed, with praise for the Audi A4's increased size, giving information technology best-in-grade rear legroom and trunk space in the meaty executive car segment.^[34] Its inline-4 ii.0 TFSI engine, while efficient providing enough of torque, was considered lacking and less refined compared to 6-cylinder engines of lighter rivals who posted faster acceleration times. Yet, the Audi S4 sports sedan has been well-received for its V6 3.0 TFSI engine's power and efficiency.^{[35] [36] [37]}

The B8 A4 was facelifted in early 2012.

During a model, cycle changes are fabricated to integrate new technologies and to keep the model competitive. These changes are referenced based on the model year (MY) of the motorcar. In Commonwealth of australia, the B8 has undergone 2 revisions leading to three variants, the B8, B8 MY10^[38] and B8 MY11.

The quattro permanent four-wheel drive system uses the latest Torsen T-3 centre differential, with a default forty:60 front to rear asymmetric torque distribution ratio (used first on the B7 RS4) as standard. (Previous A4 Quattro models split torque with a default front:rear l:50). The additional torque bias practical to the rear wheels helps mimic the driving dynamics of rear-wheel drive cars.

Audi was reported to stop offer iii.2L V6 models in 2010 model year,^[47] but still offers them equally of August 2011 (Germany).

All petrol engines use Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI), and all diesel engines utilize the common rail fuel delivery (with a pressure level of 1,600 bars (23,000 psi)), with piezo injectors of their Turbocharged Direct Injection engines.

With the 2012 facelift (the B8.v) came additional 163ps TDIe and TDI Ultra engines, the latter requiring the addition of adblue allowing for cleaner running, both of which cruel into the lower emissions tax bracket for the UK, yet presenting a significant operation improvement over the base 136ps and mid-range 143ps models.^[48]

Transmissions [edit]

In 2009, Audi announced the seven-speed S-Tronic dual-clutch automatic transmission as an option for A4 in the Uk and European markets.^[49]

All A4L models include Speed 8 multitronic continuously variable/manual transmission, except for A4L iii.2 FSI quattro, which includes Tiptronic automatic transmission.

Volkswagen settled a class-action lawsuit in 2013 involving the failures of the CVT transmission in its Audi A4 and A6 automobiles for model years 2002–2006.^[l]

The facelift model Audi A4 came in 2011. It features redesigned LED headlamps and taillights, front air dam with fog lamps, and closely set twin exhausts. Interior changes include Bluetooth connectivity for audio streaming (nav equipped models merely) and a redesigned ignition key. Controls for air-conditioning, infotainment, and power windows gain chrome clasps. Other detail interior changes include larger steering column stalk switches first seen in the D4-series Audi A8 and a simplified layout for the HVAC control panel – for example the temperature setting for the heated seats is at present directly set past a single button and is no longer controlled using the MMI punch. The A4 includes a radio with eight speakers as standard, while the MMI navigation system with vocalism dialogue is optional. A new "Drive Select System" allows drivers to choose comfort, dynamic, individual, or efficiency modes for fuel-efficiency. The power output of the ane.8 TFSI engine is 170 BHP and 320 Nm of torque – upward ten BHP and lxx Nm from the previous versions. Electromechanical power steering is standard.

Trim levels are Allure, Ambition, and Ambiente. In the United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, the A4 range is offered in SE, SE Technik, Technik, S line, and Black Edition model grades. All-bicycle-bulldoze Quattro is offered in about engine and grade combinations.

For North America, the facelift model Audi A4 sedan is simply offered with a two.0 TFSI gasoline engine. Model grades are Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige. The Avant was discontinued, leaving the Allroad Quattro as the only station wagon body fashion. For the 2016 model twelvemonth, the A4 and S4 continued in B8 production. The B9 A4 would not reach the North American market place until the 2017 model year, while the S4 variant would non be available until the 2018 model year.
