New Audi A4 Allroad revealed, headed to Geneva motor show

The all new Audi A4 Allroad has recently been revealed to the automotive world. The new Allroad from Audi builds upon the current generation Audi A4 yet adds a more rugged and aggressive look to the car.This is the first time that Audi has given the Allroad treatment to the A4 lineup.

Looks-wise ,this new Allroad from Audi has a more bolstered stance and sits higher than the current A4 meaning that one can easily take this new Allroad to any road the driver is looking to stack it up against. Of course Quattro on the vehicle will make any snowy road a driving pleasure and no issue at all. LED lights are also featured on this vehicle as well and would not be left out on such an important vehicle from Audi. This vehicle is the perfect choice for those wanting the looks of the current A4 with the off road abilities of a Q5 or Q7.

Nice! Now give it a choice of 2.0 TDI (same and the TT TDI) and you can steal a pile of tree-hugging Out-back buyers as the most environmentally friendly cross-over.

Drop in a Twin-Turbo V6 TDI in a performance version, and you have an SUV replacement for the performance nut who's wife won't OK anything rated below 30 MPG for the new car.

Actually it won't come on it... no use since the 3.0TDI will be available on it as well as the 2.0TDI and the 2.0T.

Even if it did come, what is wrong with that engine?

"Even if it did come, what is wrong with that engine?"

Are you serious?

The 3.2 liter V6 is underpowered, old, outdated and in efficient for its power output. Audi’s 3.2 L V6 engine in seriously lacking in power when compared to the competition. What’s wrong with that engine is that Audi have been putting that uncompetitive lump in the A4 since who knows how long?

If you are looking for performance and aren’t willing to spend $60,000 then Audi isn’t the brand for you. Every other competing brand manages to offer a car that actually performs for under $50k, everyone except Audi that is.

Since, uh, 2005. It's not really outdated at all. It has direct injection and other modern goodies. But I agree that it is underpowered. It's not really geared for the US market. In Europe the BMW 330i is still sold with a 260hp six, and that's its main competitor.

Wow!! not even the V6 made it this time. Just the 208hp 2.0l Four Banger (not counting diesel). What's up with Audi and this "tepid" performance crap? Audi seems to not give a damn about performance for cars in their "normal" lineup.
