The Audi A4 is a line of meaty executive cars produced since 1994 by the German machine manufacturer Audi, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group.

The A4 has been built in 5 generations and is based on the Volkswagen Group B platform. The first generation A4 succeeded the Audi 80. The automaker'south internal numbering treats the A4 every bit a continuation of the Audi 80 lineage, with the initial A4 designated every bit the B5-series, followed past 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 beyond the Volkswagen Group.

The Audi A4 automobile layout consists of a front-engine design, with transaxle-type transmissions mounted at the rear of the engine. The cars are front-bike drive, or on some models, "quattro" all-wheel 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 5-door liftback variant, was spun-off by Audi into a new nameplate chosen the Audi A5.

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

Evolution began in 1988, with the first pattern sketches being created later that year. By 1991, an exterior pattern by Imre Hasanic was chosen and frozen for November 1994 production by 1992. The interior blueprint was later finalized in 1992, with pilot production commencing in the first one-half of 1994. Development concluded in the 3rd quarter of 1994, preceding November 1994 outset of production.^{[7] [8] [nine] [10]}

A wide range of engines were bachelor in European markets, betwixt one.6 and 2.8 litres for petrol engines; and a one.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). The ii.half-dozen and 2.viii-litre V6 engines which had been carried over from the old 80/90 proved popular, although in N America, the 2.8-litre engine was the only V6 that was bachelor there until 1997. A ii.iv-liter version was adult peculiarly for the Thai market place, where import duty jumped from lx to 100 percent on cars of over 2,400 cc displacement.^[xi]

The Audi A4 was the first model in the Volkswagen Group to characteristic the new 1.8-litre 20v engine with v valves per cylinder, based on the unit Audi Sport had developed for their Supertouring race motorcar. A turbocharged 1.8T version produced 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) and 210 Northward⋅m (155 lb⋅ft) torque. Moreover, a quattro GmbH special edition of the B5 i.8T was subsequently bachelor in Deutschland and Europe, for which the engine'due south power output was raised to 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp) and 235 N⋅m (173 lb⋅ft). Five-valve technology 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 past a 2.4-litre V6 which was a downsize from the previous ii.half-dozen litre, 150 hp (112 kW) engine, but with a power increase to 165 PS (121 kW; 163 bhp).

Audi besides debuted their new tiptronic automatic manual on the B5 platform, based on the unit of measurement Porsche adult for their 964-generation 911. The transmission is a conventional automatic gearbox with a torque converter offering the driver a fully-automatic operation or manual selection of the gear ratios.

The B5 marked Audi'southward continued motility into the midsize luxury car segment, having started this trajectory notably with later model years of the preceding Audi 80/90 B4. Despite initial mechanical issues, overall build and associates quality were lauded both by the automotive printing and within Audi and Volkswagen, and at the fourth dimension, parent company Volkswagen declared the B5 the company-wide build quality benchmark for all its other models.

Facelift (1999 –2001) [edit]

Sedan (facelift)

Avant (facelift)

The Audi A4 B5 saw nearly constant minor changes and alterations throughout its seven-twelvemonth run. Moreover, a significant facelift was introduced for the 1998 B5 model year at the 1997 Frankfurt Motor Show, with sales beginning in Europe in early 1998. The two.8-litre xxx-valve V6 engine replaced the 2.8-litre 12-valve. A two.five-litre V6 Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) diesel engine with 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) was standard on the Quattro. A six-speed transmission gearbox was available, as well as the new loftier-performance Audi S4, now part of the A4 lineup (the previous S4 had been an Audi 100). Cosmetic updates included new rear lights, headlights, door handles, and another small outside/interior changes.

In mid-1998, the 1.viii 20vT engine bachelor outside Europe had its power 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.^{[ commendation needed ]} The 12-valve V6 was replaced by the xxx-valve unit which had been available in Europe for two years.

A farther facelift took place beyond the A4 and S4 platform in Feb 1999 as a 1999.5 model; changes were largely corrective only affected many components, such as both forepart 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), every bit was also signified past facelift cars now carrying the denomination "8D2".

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

The next A4, internally designated Typ 8E, debuted on x October 2000, now riding on the Volkswagen Grouping B6 (PL46) platform. The automobile'southward new styling was adult nether Peter Schreyer between 1996 and 1998, inspired past the Bauhaus design language of the C5 (second-generation) Audi A6 introduced in 1997. The one.6-litre base of operations model powerplant remained unchanged, but most other petrol/gasoline engines received either displacement increases, or power upgrades. The 1.viii-litre 20-valve Turbo was now available in 2 additional versions, with 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) or 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp), this one with a standard half dozen-speed manual gearbox, while the naturally aspirated 1.6-litre inline-four engine and 2.8-litre V6 were replaced by 2.0-litre, and all-aluminium alloy 3.0-litre units, still with five valves per cylinder, the near powerful of which was capable of 220 PS (162 kW; 217 bhp) and 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft) of torque. The 1.nine Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) engine was upgraded to 130 PS (96 kW; 128 bhp), with Pumpe Düse (Unit Injector) (PD) applied science, and was at present available with quattro permanent four-wheel bulldoze, 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 end to rear dynamic torque distribution. A Bosch ESP 5.7 Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) system, with anti-lock braking arrangement (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 power in the 1.8 Turbo engines to 183 PS (135 kW; 180 bhp) and 190 PS (140 kW; 187 bhp) – the 190 PS variant designated by a red 'T' on the boot hat. Available with four bike drive and in the 2.five TDI intermediate version to 163 PS (120 kW; 161 bhp). A 2.0 engine with Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) was also available. A year later, Audi reintroduced the S4, now powered past a 344 PS (253 kW; 339 bhp) 4.2 L V8 engine, every bit 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 thirty seconds and incorporated some styling changes, such equally trunk-coloured lower bumper and sill panels, which later plant their way to the saloon version. The Audi A4 Cabriolet version was co-developed and manufactured by Karmann.^[17]

Audi introduced a continuously variable transmission adult by LuK, named multitronic, which replaced the dated conventional automatic transmission on front-wheel drive models. In that location have been widespread complaints from consumers around the earth that the transmission box is decumbent to electronic glitches too every bit mechanical problems.^{[eighteen] [19]}

Borrowing from the Audi A6, the boot was redesigned to remove the extension of the top border with a smoother fold line. The rear light assemblies now formed part of the top line, these styling cues were eventually borrowed past other European as well as Asian manufacturers.^[20]

A sport package named 'Ultra Sport' was introduced in the North American market shortly before the B6 was replaced by the B7. Information technology included aluminium interior trim and door sills, "S line" steering wheel, front and rear spoilers, side skirts, and quattro GmbH designed 18-inch RS4 blend wheels.

Interior

Audi introduced a revised A4 in late 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) organization). The front grille assembly changed to a tall trapezoidal shape in the same manner every bit the C6 (tertiary-generation) Audi A6; all the same, the dashboard and interior were virtually unchanged from the B6 bated from minor detailing.

Audi's internal platform nomenclature uses PL46 (passenger car fiftyongitudinal platform, size 4, generation six) for both B6 and B7 chassis. The Typ 8E and Typ 8H internal designations are as well carried over from the B6 A4 range, merely now take 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 iii.2 V6 FSI petrol/gasoline engines, every bit well as other refinements, increased ability output to 200 PS (147 kW; 197 bhp) and 255 PS (188 kW; 252 bhp), respectively. These engines both utilize a iv-valve per cylinder configuration. The prior v-valve design was incompatible with the FSI directly injection organisation (due to the siting of the fuel injector, now discharging direct into the combustion sleeping accommodation). The 2.0 Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) diesel engine at present combined Pumpe Düse (Unit Injector) (PD) technology with 16 valves, while the larger two.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-bike drive remained as an option on most A4 models. Audi retired its 5-speed manual transmissions in favour of a new Getrag 6-speed. As before, multitronic continuously variable manual (CVT), now with selectable 'seven-speeds', was an choice on front-bicycle drive models, whilst a conventional ZF 6HP 6-speed tiptronic automatic transmission was an option on the quattro four-bike drive models.

In improver to the Audi S4, which carried over the powertrain from the B6 S4 – Audi reintroduced the quattro GmbH developed Audi RS4 (RS for RennSport) to the lineup, for the showtime time on the saloon/sedan and Cabriolet body, and with a naturally aspirated, merely high-revving 4.2-litre V8 FSI engine. Another inclusion on the RS4 was the latest generation Torsen T-3 Quattro 4WD system, which uses a 'default' asymmetric forty:lx front end-rear dynamic torque distribution bias. This new asymmetric heart differential was initially only available on the RS4 but was added a year afterward the S4. The balance of the B7 A4 range nevertheless used the T-2 50:50 default dynamic separate center diff.

A variant, developed past quattro GmbH, was starting time 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 selection. 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 drive, or Quattro four-wheel drive.

The B7 Cabriolet model arrived later than the other two body variants, being first shown in late 2005 and with sales beginning in Feb 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 by 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 too included the black optics pack, the RS4 style 8J X 18 '7-arm double-spoke' design alloy wheels, Two-tone Graphite/Blackness Volterra leather, 3-spoke sports leather/Alcantara multi-role steering cycle with gear knob and hand brake handle in Alcantara with silver stitching, ventilated cantankerous-drilled front disc-brakes, black tailpipes and black roof rails (Avant model merely). It too had a power increase of 20 PS, giving an output of 220 PS on the 2.0T model.

According to 2007 Swedish vehicle inspection data, the Audi A4 Avant with diesel engine is the nearly reliable vehicle bachelor on the market, with vehicle inspection rejection charge per unit of 0.0% in iii-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 entire Audi B7 A4 product line from Audi's Ingolstadt establish was dismantled and sent to Volkswagen Group's SEAT factory in Martorell, Spain.^[26]

Safety [edit]

The Audi A4 offers many standard safety features, including Bosch ESP 8.0 Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) with anti-lock braking arrangement (ABS), side airbags in the seats, 'sideguard' drapery airbags, and its optional quattro four-cycle drive system. It also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) "Acme Safety Pick For 2007".^{[27] [28]} EuroNCAP crash test results from the B6 apply to the B7 model.

allroad quattro (pre-facelift)

Audi released the first official pictures of the B8 series A4 in August 2007 and unveiled the automobile to the public at the September 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show. Saloon/sedan and Avant (estate/railroad vehicle) models are offered. The Avant was unveiled to the public at the March 2008 Geneva Motor Prove. For Northward America'southward destined models, the B8 continued in production 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 as well used in the Audi A5 coupé. While prior A4 chassis were limited in wheelbase due to the relationship between the engine, transmission and forepart axle, the MLP allows for a reduced front overhang, resulting in a greater wheelbase length without the same increment in overall length.^[32] This effectively redistributes the centre of gravity slightly rearwards, improving handling by meliorate balancing vehicle mass betwixt the front and rear axles. The estimated static front:rear weight ratio of the B8 A4 is approximately 55:45, depending on body style and engine. The relocation of the steering rack in front of the axle too improves handling over previous A4 platforms.^{[ citation needed ]} Cardinal 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 'top lid' shaped drive plate, between which the differential lay shaft passes, whilst ability transmission to the final drive is via an inclined transfer shaft which runs the length of the transmission unit. Whilst the platform retains Audi's "overhung" engine mounting position, the forepart beam is now 152mm farther forwards than the previous B6/B7 generation platform.^[33] The transfer shaft, however, has the effect of creating a large "burl" on 1 side of the transmission tunnel, which on right-paw drive versions forces the pedals to exist badly outset, which has attracted criticism from the British motoring press in particular.

The B8 A4 has increased in wheelbase by 160 millimetres (6.3 in) and in length by 117 millimetres (four.half-dozen 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 kick (torso) has also increased to 480 litres (17.0 cu ft) for the saloon (sedan) version. The A4 Avant volition accept a maximum capacity of 1,430 L (50.5 cu ft) with the rear seats folded down.

Reception has been mixed, with praise for the Audi A4'southward increased size, giving it best-in-class rear legroom and trunk infinite in the compact executive car segment.^[34] Its inline-4 2.0 TFSI engine, while efficient providing plenty of torque, was considered lacking and less refined compared to 6-cylinder engines of lighter rivals who posted faster acceleration times. However, the Audi S4 sports sedan has been well-received for its V6 three.0 TFSI engine's ability and efficiency.^{[35] [36] [37]}

The B8 A4 was facelifted in early 2012.

During a model, wheel changes are made to integrate new technologies and to proceed the model competitive. These changes are referenced based on the model year (MY) of the car. In 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 heart differential, with a default 40:threescore 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 end:rear 50:50). The additional torque bias applied to the rear wheels helps mimic the driving dynamics of rear-bike drive cars.

Audi was reported to cease offering three.2L V6 models in 2010 model year,^[47] but nonetheless offers them equally of August 2011 (Germany).

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

With the 2012 facelift (the B8.five) came boosted 163ps TDIe and TDI Ultra engines, the latter requiring the addition of adblue allowing for cleaner running, both of which fell into the lower emissions revenue enhancement bracket for the Uk, withal presenting a significant performance 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 manual as an selection for A4 in the U.k. and European markets.^[49]

All A4L models include Speed 8 multitronic continuously variable/manual transmission, except for A4L 3.2 FSI quattro, which includes Tiptronic automatic transmission.

Volkswagen settled a course-action lawsuit in 2013 involving the failures of the CVT transmission in its Audi A4 and A6 automobiles for model years 2002–2006.^[50]
