Product Overview

Audi RS 4 Avant B9 (Typ 8W) is a high-performance compact executive station wagon in production from 2017 to 2019. It was available with a single bi-turbocharged V6 engine that displaced 2.9 liters.
Compared to the B9 RS 4 Avant, much of the same design language received a new interpretation, though some may prefer the B8 version as it is arguably cleaner. Unfortunately, the B9 RS 4 Avant lost the NA V8 engine to a V6TT unit paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission. While this unit still had the same level of output, the character of the vehicle changed completely.
As such, the RS 6 Avant is arguably the only super wagon from Audi that remains on sale.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the B9 RS 4 Avant still uses with multi-link suspensions at all four corners.
