Product Overview

Audi S4 Avant B6 (Typ 8E) is a compact executive station wagon in production from 2003 to 2004. It was available with a single naturally-aspirated V8 engine that displaced 4.2 liters.

Essentially, this V8 engine is the same unit found in the D2 S8. In a much smaller chassis and paired to 6-speed Getrag manual or a 6-speed ZF 6HP auto gearbox, it has great character is a lot more fun.

Unfortunately, the S4 Avan6 looks a bit underwhelming in this generation.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the B6 S4 Avant 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.
