Model History

2018-

Current Generation

The 2018 redesigned S4 is now based on the new A4 platform. This high-performance AWD sedan is powered by a 354-hp, 3.0-liter turbo V6 mated to an eight-speed automatic, the same powertrain that is on the 2018 S5. Advanced safety and infotainment systems are all up to date.

2010-2017

2010 Redesign Year

The S4 is a high-performance version of the small Audi A4. It used a version of the A4's engine and either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. All-wheel drive was standard. Acceleration is terrific, but handling isn't that much better than the regular A4, and the ride is somewhat stiff. The interior is cramped, especially in the rear seat.

2005-2009

2005 Redesign Year

The S4 is a high-performance version of the small Audi A4. Introduced in 2000, In 2004, a new S4 offered a 340-hp V8 engine along with a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. Acceleration is terrific, but handling isn't that much better than the regular A4, and the ride is somewhat stiff. The interior is cramped, especially in the rear seat.
