New Audi S4 Avant Review - Understated Estate Still Packs a Punch - Audi’s A4 underwent a considerable transformation at the end of 2016, when under the control of Ulrich Hackenberg the mid-sized saloon and Avant estate model had as much focus put on their dynamics as they did on interior design, technology and quality.
The result was a lighter, stiffer, better balanced and more focused chassis that has transformed the regular cars and promises the same with the new S models and the forthcoming RS4.
For the S4 focus also turned to its drivetrain, with the outgoing car’s supercharged V6 replaced by a new turbocharged unit and the S Tronic gearbox switched for a Tiptronic unit. The quattro four-wheel drive system was also reconfigured.
Unlike Audi’s hard core RS models, the S range has always been the under the radar choice, offering more attitude than BMW’s M Sport models but without the aggressive overtones of the Mercedes-AMG C43 variants. This new S4 Avant not only has Audi’s fast estate honour to upload, but faces tougher competition than ever before.
It was inevitable that with today’s trend for turbocharged engines the new S4 Avant wasn’t going to hang on to its more charismatic supercharged motor for long.
The 3-litre turbocharged V6 unit is identical to that found in the S4 saloon, S5 coupe and Sportback, which means a 20bhp increase over the outgoing model to 349bhp and a 44lb ft torque increase to 368lb ft. The latter arrives at 1370rpm and flat-lines until 4500rpm, 900rpm shy of when that peak power arrives, which hangs around for 1000rpm. With its new eight-speed auto it will slip along to 62mph in a claimed 4.9-seconds and troubles its speed limiter at 155mph.
