Now the alignment is more complicated: in addition to "olrouda» A6 under the 4th ring also produces and A4 allroad. Do you like the new "Four» Audi? Of course, first and foremost a roomy and practical "wagon» A4 Avant. And no wonder; compelling passenger car - especially in the all-wheel drive performance quattro. Here are the ground clearance at the "German" is too small for the conditions of Russia, snowy winter may not be enough - even on the streets of big goroda.Togda as "SUV» Audi Q5, to your taste, where a heavy. And sits a tall, this can not affect the road holding and drivability. That is, you need four-wheel drive "Touring» Audi with a decent ground clearance, endowed, however, the road performance sports sedan. Is it possible merits of such a combination? According to marketers Audi AG, they embody A4 allroad quattro. They are pushing a new model under the sonorous slogan: "A car that knows no boundaries." It is possible to exaggerate - in the usual manner of advertising, but is it really so much? Judge. Passenger vsedorozhnikIdeya terrain light vehicles in the practice of Audi is not new: in the last century by the 4th ring comes A6 allroad quattro. Slightly elevated above the road four-wheel drive "wagon" has won recognition of Europeans - including the (wealthy) Russians. It is also not without success, exported to North America - until 2005, when the demand for "sports-business executives" began to decline sharply, and sales fell below allroad commercially reasonable level. Especially because the approach of the next generation A6, the model lineup is certainly re-declare "olroud." But today there is still a "small» allroad - on the platform of the last pokoleniya.Novy A4 A4 allroad slightly larger "Passenger and Cargo» A4 Avant, from whom and "spun off" (though the wheelbase is shortened by 3 mm - the nuances of layout). Plus incomplete 2 cm in length, 1.5 cm in width. And most importantly - increased ground clearance vehicle - up to 18 cm real. "Olroud" also features some of my stylistic details: well, a little more "sticking" their wings over the 17-inch seven-spoke wheels are on top of the luggage rails, and the underbody is protected by front and rear plates of the "steel". Visually, "coupe" fast dynamic: flying over the road like a ship on the hydrofoil above the waves. On such a long voyage ... img2} The 5-local "olroude" as spacious as in the A4 Avant; body have one and the same. In the 2nd row actually arranged three adults (though the two of us, of course, free). And the load is where to place: full of landing sites measured by loading space 490 liters (VDA). And when folded (separately) rear seat backs its capacity increases to 1430 liters; a lot of opportunities. True, the process of folding-unfolding quite troublesome - and the luggage compartment floor is obtained is not quite smooth. But working on the one hand he has a soft cover, while the other - a smooth washable. For the life of all visible praktichno.Vo recognized class Audi: design, ergonomics, finish. At the same time, marked personality "off-road vehicle": thus, upholstery fabric executed in spetsfakturah allroad (Tundra, etc.). Plus a couple of varieties of leather upholstery (Milano and Valcona), as well as several combinations of leather / Alcantara. "Premium" level, however, observers noted the uneven quality of the materials of interior decoration. And the choice of texture is not always a good panel, the impression is that the demand for light vehicles from Audi special. Well, true. img4} In the "full-time" information and entertainment equipment and comfort - Concert stereo player with MP3, «electro», climate control and much more. Among the options listed as Bluetooth, navigation, control servos front seats (with heating and ventilation), 3-zone climate control. As well as hi-end «music 'from Bang & Olufsen: 505 watts, 14 speakers. With a song on the safety of zhizni.Po A4 allroad is practically no different from A4 Avant: by default, 6 "cushions" and "curtains," etc. And for a fee are offered as the "cushion" in the 2nd row, the Audi assure that light vehicles with 4 rings securely protect the passengers. Confirmed by tests "on strike" by the new method EuroNCAP: 5 "stars" for the A4 Avant from a possible 5. And what about "olrouda" no doubt. HoroshegoPerednie many seats are moved on several fronts, "bagel" adjustable tilt and telescopic, so the driver easily get behind the wheel. Circular visibility - thanks to the generous glazing - excellent. The front panel is slightly overloaded devices, displays and monitors, keyboards and electric drive, but the proprietary interface allows the MMI without straining to cope with on-board systems. Audi calls the road, and to refuse such an invitation trudno.Po essentially A4 allroad is slightly raised above the surface of the chassis' wagon »A4 Avant quattro. And at the center of gravity "olrouda" somewhat higher, but the behavior of this feature of the car has virtually no effect. Track him wider than the Avant quattro, and side rolls in turns and if increased, it is barely noticeable. On the road allroad shows live obediently zarulivaet handling and turn-in. Steering wheel easy and in some cases even "pustovat"; feedback on the "steering wheel" is not enough. In the high-speed maneuvering oschuschaetsya.Vmeste so versatile Audi stable at speed - and quite a massive acceleration in light vehicles not weak. Coupled with the "robotic" 7-speed gearbox S tronic, a 2-liter TFSI pulls strongly and smoothly. Like a good modern turbo diesel, but with a "ceiling" speed is much higher than 4 thousand, "turbolag" almost unnoticeable. And the S tronic to match: the transfer pereschelkivayutsya lightning, but very smoothly. However, when translated Electronics Drive Select (powertrain control, ESP and steering mechanism) mode Dynamic, «robot» CAT switches too fussy, better stay in Auto or Comfort. Or do without not cheap options. Anyway, the most interesting powerplant for those who appreciate not only versatile, "olrouda", but also the dynamics. Russian vybor.Chto As a 2-liter turbo-diesel TDI, it is joined to a 6-speed manual gearbox - no options. Acceleration, of course, weaker than the TFSI, and the "pen" switches are not perfectly. But the TDI gives a noticeable gain in fuel, a considerable plus in the eyes of European motorists. And best of all speakers with a V-shaped 3-liter "six» TDI, automatic transmission complete with S tronic. For testing, allroad with this power unit accelerates from zero to 100 km / h in 6.6 seconds. And fuel consumption is moderate, serious tehnika.Narekaniya reviewers raised except ride "olrouda": on bumpy roads the car noticeably shaking. Here and remember the air suspension A6 allroad, while the A4 coil springs. Two very different things ... The quality of sound insulation it is what you expect from Audi: the noise from the powertrain and chassis are effectively suppressed. And outsiders smithereens and no annoying squeaks. Is that the sound is heard at the speed of oncoming air: effect considerable frontal area, the elevated cars. Yes, considerable - is not it a good car needs a lot. Account in ballahDostoinstva and disadvantages of the new allroad there. And if we express the views of observers in the quantitative estimates, the balance is as follows: Appearance - 10 points (out of 10). "Manly" appearance - with the undeniable similarity to a related "generalist» A4. "Excellent." Dynamics - 9. Acceleration is best with a powerful "Six» TDI. But even with a 2-liter TFSI (paired with a 7-speed S tronic) dynamics in "olrouda" not weak, "good." Road holding and handling - 8. Despite the elevated center of gravity, lateral roll at A4 allroad small. Rudder "pustovat" (lack of "feedback"), but the car is stable at speed and tenaciously holds the path to a bunch of turns. "Good." Comfort and equipment - 9. Smooth progress at the "olrouda" worse than the Avant quattro. At the speed of sound is heard of the oncoming air. Information and entertainment facilities and comfortable at Audi; «good». Safety and security - 10. A4 model series has successfully withstood the test EuroNCAP: 5 "stars." allroad, apparently also not bad. The "active" and "passive" safety at height, "excellent." Quality and reliability - 7. A recent review of JDPower (UK) Audi brand is ranked in the top "ten" on the satisfaction of owners. And observers have commented on the quality of finishing materials (as well as for other items). Demand with a "premium" brand hard: only "satisfactory." Operating costs - 8. A4 allroad economical on fuel - in all variations of the power unit. The costs of maintenance and repair of decent, however, "good." In the black: a decent road manners - like the A4 Avant quattro; solid appearance, moderate consumption goryuchego.V red: limited off-road capabilities, uncomfortable folding of the rear seats, high tsena.Obschaya score - 8 points (out of 10). It is unclear who want A4 allroad, when there is a remarkable Q5. Narrow "niche" model. Verdict: good. Significant jump in price compared with A4 Avant is not justified by a modest off-road capability. A4 allroad falls out of the game. Help-obektivka. Technical differences from the A4 allroad Avant quattro small. "Line" of engines is limited until the triple variants: a 2-liter 16-klapannikom TFSI (direct injection gasoline combustion and turbocharging) with a compression ratio of 9.6 to developing 211 hp at 4300 min-1. The highest torque (350 Nm) remains constant in the range of 1500-4200 min-1; tyagovity agregat.Plyus steam turbo diesel TDI (with the "particulate" filter DPF): 2-liter 170-strong "four". And the 3-liter V-6 239 hp maximum power at 4 thousand rpm, the torque in the range of 1.5-3 thousand rpm up to 500 Nm. The engines are joined with a 6-speed "handle" - or 7-speed S tronic (except 2-liter TDI). Peerless "robotic" gearbox (2 clutch, 7 assists and switching without breaking the flow of power!) Operates either automatically or in a mode of forced upravleniya.V paired with a "robotic» S tronic, a proprietary quattro forms one of the most advanced modern transmissions. Permanent four-wheel drive - in contrast to the periodic connection of the 2nd bridge, all 4-wheel paddle without interruption. Asymmetrical central Torsen differential on the default divides torque in proportion 40/60 - in favor of the rear axle. Such distribution gives the car a slightly pronounced "rear-wheel drive" manners "drivers" like. But when the wheels slip Torsen instantly throws up to 65% thrust to the front axle - or up to 85% on the back. Although rigid differential lock is not available - and downshift to "razdatke" no. Vzyschite.Glavnaya not feature in that "olroud" planted on the surface of the chassis by 37 mm higher than the Avant quattro; a bit, but the difference is. Front and rear with A4 allroad kinematically perfect suspension double wishbone (no racks McPherson); coil springs, sway bar. Tires are mounted on the size 225/55R 17-inch rim for a fee are available 18-inch wheels. Rack and pinion steering operates with servogidrousilitelem Servotronic, with an optional steering mechanism provides dynamic steering - with a variable gear ratio. Under a solid mass of the vehicle brake discs, "around" (vented front). In the "regular" package includes ABS and ESP - along with the original ORD (Offroad Detection - Automatic recognition of the nature of running surface). Electronics takes over more and more. Length A4 allroad - 4721 mm, width - 1841, height - 1495; wheelbase - 2805 mm gauge - 1583 / 1574 mm. Slightly wider than the A4 Avant, and appreciably higher. Aerodynamics at allroad mediocre: the coefficient of air resistance - 0.34. In the frontal area of ??2.24 m2 aerodynamic factor is 0.76. Not particularly advantageous. Wet weight A4 allroad 2-liter TFSI and the "handle" - from 1690 kg and with a "robotic» S-tronic 35 pounds heavier. From zero to 100 km / h the car with the gearshift and other dispersed equally quickly - in 6.9 seconds. Declared maximum speed - 230 km / h. And the average petrol consumption (EU5) is an easy difference: 7.9 liters with a "handle" and 8.1 liter - the "robotic" CAT. With a 3-liter TDI and Auto S-tronic «olroud" pulls on all 1840 kg. Nevertheless, from the site to "hundreds" of great sprint 6.4 seconds. Declared maximum speed - 236 km / h and heavy fuel A4 allroad burns an average of only 7.1 liters per 100 kilometers. With a 2-liter TDI and manual transmission average fuel consumption is reduced and completely up to 6.2 liters. True, the acceleration time to 100km / h then deteriorated to 2.5 sec. And "maximum speed" is reduced to 213 km / h. Is weak? Dissenting opinion. European observers have rolled out the wonderful Audi rating of "mediocre" ... And no wonder: they are simply not understand the appointment of such cars. What is it? While in Russian service conditions, "olroud" - exactly what you need. Special article: The car for all occasions - as a single family. Non-poor families, because the model, unfortunately, is not cheap. So when the budget allows, choose, of course, A4 allroad. And if it is running out, the Subaru Outback. And the whole of morality. Photos of Audi.
