Those in the back are treated to the same, beautifully finished leather with its diamond patterned seams, has a good leg and headroom, sockets to keep the mobile devices up and the convenience of setting the temperature separately. Being a hooded-up version of what is designed to be a family car in the first place, the RS4 mixes easily with family life, with four wide-open doors and an automated tailgate that opens and closes by pressing a button.

Behind this fifth door is a generous and usable space that measures 505L in total capacity; More than enough to manage the weekly homework of a modern family, from sports activities to grocery shopping or an all-in-road trip to a golf weekend game. Each of these is almost impossible to do in a supercar or even a stylish coupe-like his slender brother.

At the other of the RS4 is a new generation of 2.9-liter V6 bi-turbo co-developed with the sister brand Porsche and already proven in a number of models through the Volkswagen group, such as the Cup, Panama 4s and Cayenne S. Oddly, it produces higher power outputs in the 2019 Audi RS4 Avant models, with 331kW and 600Nm compared to 324kW and 550Nm, giving the RS4 the Slingshot capacity of 0-100km/h in 4.1 seconds on an electronically controlled peak speed of 250km/ H.

It’s a very different engine from the high-revving V8 that went ahead with a lot more torque (an additional 170Nm value) available through a wider range of Rev, which ensures the new generation Uber wagon has much more elasticity in Its driving character. When the old engine had an extremely narrow power strip at the top end of the Tacho (and sounded glorious when redesigning to its 8250rpm cut), the V6 had a moment-and endless-sense of urgency through its range muscular medium.

Another wholesale change is Audi RS4 Avant has replaced the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission of its predecessor with an automatic conventional torque converter with eight gears-again designed to make it more comfortable to drive around Of the city while also helping the smallest V6 to offer better fuel consumption. On this, the RS4 consumes an average of 8.9 L/100km on the combined cycle and requires a minimum of 95RON Premium lead-free to reach its maximum outputs.

There was something really special about the previous-generation RS4 with its V8 of Lamentations. But he really came alive when you were really up for rent; The rest of the time that is, let’s face it, 99 percent of normal use, it was hampered by its lack of low-end torque, snappy transmission, and brittle driving.

The new one is missing some of the emotional appeals of the V8, but somehow rationally, it walks forward with giant steps in performance and usability. For starters, the huge slab of traction power of the engine is instantly accessible, which makes it not only faster but easier to drive in any environment.

Yes, it doesn’t sound like exciting, but it still produces a rich soundtrack and believable that subtly hides in the background when the player selector is left in its most comfortable setting, but comes to the forefront in dynamic mode with a Growl always present (Albeit one that is digitally amplified through the audio system) under acceleration while emitting a glorious gargle over excessive stroke when you back off.

The engine works beautifully with the eight-speed auto also, which moves seamlessly when left to its own devices and shows none of the low-speed hesitations of the double clutch, it replaces, and yet snaps to Through the cogs without interrupting the delivery of power just as effectively on the offsets with full bore when using the pallets of metal gears on the steering wheel.

In perfect harmony with the more elastic nature of the engine, the RS4 excels in its ability to espouse a level of driving control consistent with high-speed and foolproof stability and surefoosité. The RS4 is incredibly comfortable, even on 20-inch alloys equipped with low-profile rubber, around the city and quiet and cruising on the open road, making it a totally relaxing experience.

But, for those moments when you call on his ultimate abilities, he heroically lives up to his status with precise direction, strong brakes, and amazing agility thanks to the latest generation of Audi’s full Quattro transmission with a Torque-vectoring rear differential.

Of course, it is not as difficult to find its limits as the villain of the tires fryer which is the rear-training AMG C63 S. Instead, the RS4 is a gentle ruler with real superpowers. The front RS4 is one of those rare cars that don’t reveal themselves immediately and requires time behind the wheel-through a wide range of conditions to truly appreciate its depth of character.

The initial impression that it has become soft in a bid to comply with fuel-saving restrictions encroaching, at the same time forcing one of the biggest engines of the last decade in extinction, is well-off the mark. The opposite is actually true. Yes, the new Gen RS4 front is more livable than its predecessor – making it one of the biggest All-rounders on sale right now – but it’s even faster and has a bigger dynamic bandwidth than before.
