At the last Paris Motor Show the company introduced the conceptual development of Steppenwolf. Everything is so distracted by this original car that no longer stick to the Germans with questions about the impending change of model A4. And just a week after the auto show - the world presentation of a new generation of "four". The second generation A4 was brand new image and the technical part. The car became more vivid and complete solutions that can win over many customers. The design embodies a new style of new Audi, but the A4 is not just a smaller version of the A6 sedan, or a solid 4-door coupe version of the TT, and the model with its "face". Still, designers of a little overdone Ingoldshtadta, giving the lineup similarity. In appearance the A4 has features that allow it to learn, but they are not striking, they need to know. The most prominent are "crystal clear" headlights with twin vents and lens turn signals, side glass and form a sharp edge edging trunk. The appearance of this hard hit by a car, but the style of new models, invisibly present spirit is so far away, but no less beloved Audi 80. Do not forget that on its development work itself Giugiaro, the most famous Italian designer. The changes affected not only form but also the size of the machine. Novelty has more on all counts: in length by 69 mm (4547 mm) wide by 33 mm (1766 mm), cabin height has increased by 15 mm at the previous overall height 1428 mm. Salon is longer by 32 mm, and legroom the rear passengers has increased by 41 mm. Kinship model A4 A6 easily traced in the design of the cabin. Almost all of the Volkswagen works in the salon look like real family, but Audi among them - a clear aristocrat, whose style can not be confused with anything. The combination of simplicity and clear lines of reasonableness of all the details and layout makes the Audi brand one of the models, approaching the ideal ergonomics and comfort. The latter also cares for automatic air conditioning system, which is now included in the list of standard equipment for all versions of A4. This will help keep the driver cool head no matter what the temperature "overboard". This is especially important when the technical part of the car has a dynamic drive that is so hot blood. And now for the technique. The design of the A4 is very widely used aluminum, though, of course, not totally, as in the smallest A2. In particular, cast aluminum alloy cylinder block engine and leverage podveski.Podveska was a real highlight technical aspects of the new A4. Engineers set out to minimize unsprung weight of the masses. To do this, the front suspension was performed from lightweight aluminum alloy, resulting in reduced its weight by 8.5 kg! The rear suspension also has elements of light alloys. In the design of the rear suspension arms used principles models Quattro: minimum weight and maximum reliability. On the total weight of the vehicle is not significantly affected, but significantly improved the clarity of the suspension, and therefore control, is essential for the brand Audi, which has always been famous for machines for active driving style. This is also baked and designers of engines. Opens range of petrol engines, 2.0-liter 130-horsepower power plant - it will be the base for the A4. Hotter drivers probably prefer to have a well-known 1.8-liter engine with a low-pressure turbine, which develops power of 150 hp But supporters of high-power definitely oblyubuyut only the top option - a first for Audi in this class offers a 3.0-liter engine. Power it makes 220 hp and a maximum speed of the A4 with a V-shaped "six" reaches 245 km / h. At one time, the Audi 80 was a pioneer in the automotive industry in parts of turbo diesel engines. In this respect, the new A4 worthily continues the tradition of the brand. 1.9-liter engine, equipped with a turbine develops power 130 hp Such a high power density motors for TDI achieved through the use of direct injection and a turbocharger. In addition to increasing the power it can also reduce fuel consumption, which accounts for only 1,9 TDI 5,5 l / 100 km. Thus, a complete filling (tank 70 l) will be sufficient for 1,300 kilometers! In the range of turbo diesel for A4 now also appeared engine V6. The new engine has a working volume of 2.5 liters and answered by a serious, even for a gasoline engine of power - 180 hp With this "diesel" A4 is capable of a maximum speed of 225 km / h. And if at the start of the crossroads, you can not catch up with this car, do not be surprised - while its acceleration to 100 km / h in only 8.6 sec. By the way, modifications to this motor will be only four-wheel drive transmission. For front-wheel drive variants of A4, an additional and new gearbox - stepless CVT chain Multitronic, which is already being used in the model A6. Wheel-drive models can be equipped with 5 -, 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission Tiptronic.Privychnym "ridge" of the Audi brand have become all-wheel drive versions Quattro. For the new generation A4 offers all-wheel drive options for modifications to the motors 1,8 T, 2,5 TDI and 3,0 V6. All wheel drive permanent, but as inter-axle differential is applied to Torsen. Continuing the line of active safety experts Audi decided that the costs included in the list of standard equipment and motion stabilization system ESP, as well as extreme braking system Breack Assist, which is able to recognize the sharp, panic braking and automatically activate the braking system on a full silu.Passivnaya security is ensured by stringent body with multiple proven crash test zones of crushing and airbags. It goes without saying - it's front airbags, plus now also pads Sideguard, which protect the head and neck front passengers in side crashes. With these new solutions in vehicle segment D-class, in particular its prestigious sector, makes a serious bid for the championship.
