In {the basic|the essential|the fundamental} configuration, the luggage compartment of {the new|the brand new} Audi RS4 Avant {offers|affords|gives|presents|provides} 505 liters (17.{8|Eight} cu ft) of storage {space|area|house}, {while|whereas} 1,510 liters (53.{3|Three} cu ft) of {volume|quantity} {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} with the seats folded down. The luggage compartment lid is electrically {driven|pushed} as {standard|commonplace|customary|normal}. Sensor {technology|expertise|know-how} for opening {and closing|and shutting} the luggage compartment lid {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} as an {option|choice|possibility}. For {the first|the primary} time, the Audi RS4 Avant {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} with a trailer hitch on request, which electrically unlocks {at the|on the} push of a button. {The new|The brand new} Audi RS4 Avant {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} in Germany and {other|different} European {dealers|sellers} from {the start|the beginning} of 2018. {The basic|The essential|The fundamental} {price|value|worth} is €79,800. {The new|The brand new} Audi RS4 Avant is the sporting spearhead of the A4 {family|household}. Its RS-typical design {draws|attracts} on {numerous|quite a few} motorsport influences from the Audi {90|ninety} quattro IMSA GTO. The {front|entrance} {section|part}, sides and rear all differ {significantly|considerably} from the Audi A4 Avant. The {much|a lot} wider and flatter single-{frame|body} radiator grille with {a new|a brand new}, three-dimensional honeycomb {structure|construction} bears the quattro {logo|brand|emblem} and the RS4 emblem. A blade in a contrasting {color|coloration|colour|shade} {links|hyperlinks} the {solid|stable|strong} {lower|decrease} air intakes.
The {optional|elective|non-compulsory|non-obligatory|optionally available} Matrix LED headlamps are differentiated from {the standard|the usual} LED headlights {thanks to|because of|due to} the shaded trims. Next {to these|to those} are {additional|extra|further}, vertical {side|aspect|facet} air intakes that make the {high|excessive} {performance|efficiency} Avant {appear|seem} even wider. The quattro blisters emphasize the {strong|robust|sturdy} bulges over the wheel housings, which have been {extended|prolonged} by 30 millimeters (1.2 in) on {both|each} sides. The sill extensions painted {in the|within the} {vehicle|automobile|car} {color|coloration|colour|shade} {include|embody|embrace} an insert in gloss black or in carbon as an {optional|elective|non-compulsory|non-obligatory|optionally available} {extra|additional|further}. The housings of the exterior rear view mirrors are {finished|completed} in matte aluminum {and also|and in addition|and likewise} optionally {available|accessible|obtainable|out there} in carbon, or in black or {in the|within the} {vehicle|automobile|car} {color|coloration|colour|shade} if {preferred|most popular|most well-liked}. The roof rail {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} in matte aluminum or in black as an {optional|elective|non-compulsory|non-obligatory|optionally available} {extra|additional|further}. {At the|On the} rear, sporty {features|options} {like the|just like the} RS-{specific|particular} diffuser insert, the oval tailpipes of the RS exhaust system and the RS roof spoiler make a {bold|daring} {statement|assertion}. The optic packages - Gloss Black, Carbon, and Matte Aluminum - {offer|provide|supply} {further|additional} customization {options|choices}. Overall, the RS4 Avant {is available|is accessible|is obtainable|is offered|is on the market|is out there} in eight {colors|colours}, and Audi Sport {offers|affords|gives|presents|provides} Sonoma Green Metallic as an {exclusive|unique} {option|choice|possibility}.
The Audi {exclusive|unique} {range|vary} {also|additionally} {includes|consists of|contains} many {other|different} {custom|customized} {colors|colours} {such as|akin to|comparable to|corresponding to|equivalent to|reminiscent of|resembling|similar to} Nogaro Blue Pearl Effect. {Compared to|In comparison with} its direct predecessor, a naturally aspirated {high|excessive}-{speed|pace|velocity} V8 engine, the re-developed V6 twin turbo delivers {a completely|a totally|a very} new dimension of torque and {efficiency|effectivity}. From 1,900 to 5,000 rpm, the 2.9 TFSI engine delivers a full 600 Nm (442.5 lb-ft) of torque to the crankshaft - 170 Nm (125.{4|Four} lb-ft) {more than|greater than} its predecessor. The 2.9 TFSI V6 twin turbo engine from Audi Sport is a nod to the legendary 2.7 liter V6 from {the first|the primary} RS4 Avant. Produced from 1999 to 2001, it delivered 279 kW (380 hp). Owing to {the higher|the upper} forces in its {interior|inside}, its stroke was {reduced|decreased|diminished|lowered} by {3|three} millimeters (0.1 in) to 86 millimeters (3.{4|Four} in). With an unchanged bore {hole|gap} of {84|eighty four} millimeters (3.{3|Three} in), the displacement measures 2,894 cm3. The engine {only|solely} weighs 182 kilograms (401.2 lbs), which is 31 kilograms (68.{3|Three} lbs) {less than|lower than} its V8 predecessor, which {benefits|advantages} {the overall|the general} weight and axle load distribution of {the new|the brand new} Audi RS4 Avant. {The two|The 2} turbochargers of the 2.9 TFSI are {each|every} {arranged|organized} on a cylinder {bank|financial institution}, and generate {up to|as much as} 1.5 bar of {charge|cost} {pressure|strain|stress}.
As with all new V6 and V8 engines from Audi, the turbochargers are mounted at a 90-{degree|diploma} angle to the cylinder banks, which {means that|implies that|signifies that} the exhaust {side|aspect|facet} of the cylinder heads is inside, and the intake {side|aspect|facet} is {outside|exterior|outdoors}. This {layout|format|structure} {enables|allows|permits} a compact design and {short|brief|quick} {fuel|gas|gasoline} paths with minimal {flow|circulate|circulation|move|movement|stream} loss - the 2.9 TFSI reacts {extremely|extraordinarily} spontaneously to the movements of {the right|the appropriate|the best|the correct|the fitting|the precise|the proper|the suitable} pedal. The {high|excessive}-{performance|efficiency} V6 not {only|solely} impresses with its {strong|robust|sturdy} {performance|efficiency}, {but also|but additionally|but in addition} its {efficiency|effectivity}. In {the new|the brand new} European driving cycle, the {vehicle|automobile|car} {uses|makes use of} {just|simply} 8.{8|Eight} liters of {fuel|gas|gasoline} per {100|a hundred|one hundred} kilometers (26.7 US mpg), {equivalent|equal} to 200-199 grams of CO2 per kilometer (321.9-320.{3|Three} g/mi). These values {represent|characterize|signify|symbolize} a 17% {reduction|discount} in {fuel|gas|gasoline} consumption {compared|in contrast} with the {previous|earlier} {model|mannequin}. A key {reason|cause|motive|purpose} for {this is|that is} {the new|the brand new} TFSI combustion {process|course of} from Audi {called|known as|referred to as} the B-cycle {process|course of}. {This is|That is} {specially|specifically} designed for the partial load {range|vary}, by far {the most common|the commonest|the most typical} {operating|working} mode.
At {higher|greater|increased|larger} {loads|hundreds|masses} and engine speeds, {the two|the 2}-step Audi valvelift system (AVS)closes the inlet valves later - the opening duration extends to 200 crank angle {degrees|levels}. At {the same|the identical} time, the valve {lift|carry|elevate|raise} {increases|will increase} from 6.{0|Zero} (0.2 in) to 10 millimeters (0.{4|Four} in). The cylinder filling {increases|will increase} {considerably|significantly} - the engine turns at a powerfully {high|excessive} {speed|pace|velocity} and delivers {smooth|clean|easy} {performance|efficiency}. Another {factor|issue} {in the|within the} {efficiency|effectivity} of the 2.9 TFSI is the thermal {management|administration} system. The crankcase and the cylinder head have separate cooling circuits. After a {cold|chilly} {start|begin}, the switchable water pump regulates the {flow|circulate|circulation|move|movement|stream} of coolant {through|by|by means of|by way of|via} the engine {so that|in order that} the oil heats up {quickly|rapidly|shortly}. The exhaust manifolds are {integrated|built-in} into the cylinder heads, and are surrounded by the coolant, which helps to {accelerate|speed up} the heating {process|course of}. When the engine is {warm|heat}, this {technology|expertise|know-how} lowers the exhaust {gas|fuel|gasoline} temperature - which {significantly|considerably} reduces consumption, {especially|particularly} {during|throughout} sporty driving.
