Product Overview

Audi S4 B8 (Typ 8K) is a compact executive sedan in production from 2009 to 2011, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a single suparcharged 3.0L V6 engine with direct injection (FSI).

For this generation, Audi threw out the conventional torque converter automatic and opted for a DCT for the auto model, while a 6-speed manual remained available. Arguably, this was the height of Audi S4. Like before, the B8 S4 still used a mechanical AWD system.

Audi has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.28 coefficient of drag to show for it.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the S4 B8 comes with multi-link suspensions at all four corners. This provides the best cornering performance and tunability, at the expense of cost and a little bit of durability.
