New Audi A4 allroad quattro to be released in March

Audi have announced orders for the new A4 are available from today.

The new A4 allroad Quattro, the new interpretation of the Avant, will make its public debut at the 2009 Palexpo Motor Show in Geneva on March 5th.

The new Audi offers offroad detection technology with prices, on the road, starting from £29,285.

Improvements include a 20 mm-wider track front and rear, a 37 mm increase in ride height to 180 mm and allroad-specific body styling, including a unique design for the grille and bumpers, wheel-arch extensions and additional under-body protection.

Three state-of-the-art directly injected and EU5 emission limit-compliant engines will initially provide the backbone for the new A4 allroad quattro. The latest six-speed manual gearbox will initially be reserved for the 2.0 TDI, while 2.0 TFSI and 3.0 TDI versions will come equipped with the new S tronic twin clutch automatic transmission, which has been newly reconfigured.

The model follows the A6 allroad Quattro, to provide an off-road, all-terrain capability.
