Why does Audi only offer the 2.0T in A4 models? (excluding the S)


I'm really liking the 10+ A4/sports but why only a 2.0T?

They're slowly replacing all 3.2's w/ 2.0T's. Audi usually produces the higher displacement models at the same time as the lower displacement ones, and if people don't mind the slight drop in power, the kick out the higher displacement gas guzzlers and leave the "eco-friendly" models.

The S4 is about the same price as a 335is with premium package. Not much in between I agree.

Not surprised they phased out the 3.2. The 2.0T had more torque I believe and was almost as fast. Which a $600 tune, quite a bit faster.

It makes almost as much torque as the old 3.2, as stated by everybody else here. I liked the engine in the B7; I would like to try the engine in the B8.

yea Im a little bummed...its not that big of a deal to me, since my next car will need to be more fuel efficient than the 335 ( la traffic/highway is more like city mpg) but 211hp feels uninspiring to a degree...

The S4 replaces the old 3.0 3.2. It's not a special car anymore in Canada the price was chopped from 17K.
