"With more technical finesse, comfort and sophisticated engine unit, the Audi A4 packed in brilliant performance and redefined efficiency, drivability and high class infotainment in an outstanding form, he said.

Engines and Drivetrain

Audi will spring quite a surprise when it comes to engines and gearboxes on the A4. For starters, the A4 will get a manual gearbox option, which will make it the first and only car in its segment to have one. The A4 will also get a new 2.0-litre petrol engine, which makes 190PS of peak power along with a 2.0-litre diesel engine that also makes 190PS of peak power. Both engines will come mated to a new seven-speed DSG automatic gearbox (while the diesel will also get the manual we spoke about earlier). Audi is also considering the return of the more powerful 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine that makes 272PS of peak power and comes with the Audi Quattro all-wheel-drive system.  All in all, the A4 will have one of the largest spreads of any car in its segment, which is a good thing for Indian luxury car buyers.

Of course, most of this isn’t certain yet as the Audi bigwigs in India are still finalising the specifications and variants. But we expect the Audi A4 to come with a whole bunch of standard equipment in all variants, which could actually make it a very good value-for-money product for anyone looking to upgrade to the luxury car segment.
