Product Overview

Audi A4 Avant B8 (Typ 8K) facelift is a compact executive station wagon in production from 2011 to 2015. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 1.8 to 3.0 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift model, the main changes of this facelift was on the styling front, with the facelift being a little simpler in exterior design. At the same time, Audi improved the output of some engines. The mechanics of the vehicle remained largely untouched.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Audi A4 Avant B8 continued to use 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.
