The new Audi A4 is set to be unveiled at the Frankfurt motor show in September this year. The new car is based on Audi’s second-generation MLB platform and will feature styling cues first seen on the Audi Prologue concept last year.
Images of the new car have already leaked online and we now have information on the likely engine options. The new A4 is expected to receive a choice of seven engines internationally –four petrols (1.4, 1.8, 2.0 and 3.0-litre TFSI) and three diesel engines (1.6, 2.0 and 3.0-litre TDI). It may also get the hybrid powertrain from the A3 e-tron and an all-new diesel hybrid one as well. Transmission duties are expected to be handled by a six-speed manual gearbox or a nine-speed automatic with power being sent to the front wheels. Four-wheel drive is expected to be available as an option.
The new A4 is also expected to get a brake energy recuperation system along with start-stop technology and thermal management.
