The new diesel edition of Audi A4 is really a no compromise family car with a super efficient engine.
The 2011 Audi A4 2.0 TDI sedan has a 4.4 liters per 100 km (53.46 US mpg) fuel consumption, and the Avant (station wagon / estate) version has a 4.6 liters (51.13 US mpg) fuel economy. Apart from having a very good fuel efficiency, both the 2011 Audi A4 2.0 TDI Avant and the sedan offers low CO2 emissions. The sedan is rated at 115 grams per km (185.07 g/mile) and the Avant at 120 grams (193.12).
The two new A4 models use the technologies from Audi’s modular efficiency platform. All the gear ratios of their six-speed manual transmissions were lengthened slightly, and the forged 16-inch alloy wheels are shod with 206/60 tires that have been optimized with respect to rolling resistance. Aerodynamic tweaks to the body and a lower ride height improves the drag coefficient, while the on-board computer with efficiency program gives the driver tips about when to shift and on fuel-efficient driving.
As for the price, the sedan costs €31,600 and the Avant €33,250.
