Comes from Test Audi A4 Avant 3.0TDI Quattro, for sports families (II)

Impressive print...

After feeling the pleasant sensations that the Audi A4 Avant 3.0 TDI Quattro can offer us, it's time to make use of reason, take numbers and assess what Audi offers us for our money.

Consumption

Those who can afford a car with a base price of €50.000 are probably not too concerned about consumption of your vehicle, but it is always a factor to consider.

The Audi A4 3.0 TDI is not a very austere car with fuel, but the truth is that a car with these features cannot be a lighter.

Lucky the one who can sit here every day

In town Leaving the gearbox in the "auto" position, the consumption obtained was just over 9 liters. If, on the other hand, we decide to move the almost 1.800Kg with great ease, the marker will reach the 11 liters at 100 km. It must be taken into account that this Audi A4 Avant goes to 100km/h in 6,3 seconds.

on the highwayrespecting the legal limits, the Audi A4 3.0TDI Quattro will delight us with very tight consumption, specifically 6 litres/100km which is very good. If we pick up the pace and overtake frequently by stepping on the accelerator, consumption will rise to 8,2 litres/100Km. Combining curved road and motorway at a very happy rhythm, somewhat above the legal consumption remains at 9,5 liters / 100 km, a value close to the real one in agile driving. Not bad.

If we arm ourselves with a knife and we tackle mountain passes at maximum engine performance, the maximum consumption that I have measured is 18,5 litres/100km, with heart-stopping benefits.

Very nice, useful … and expensive

equipment and price

We reached the strongest point of the car. Our unit was packed to the brim and could still carry more extras.

As standard (Audi A4 Avant 3.0TDI Quattro Triptronic) it is equipped with 6 airbags, active head restraints, ESP, variable assistance steering, Quattro Torsen type traction, Triptronic automatic transmission, daytime running lights, fog lights, sports suspension, three-zone climate, thermal tinted windows, electric handbrake, MMI with Mp3 and 8 speakers, automatic wipers, 17-inch wheels, etc. The base price is €51.000

Our unit also had tempomat cruise control, tire pressure control, rear airbags, parking radar, GPS naviganator with 7″ screen, dynamic direction, Audi DriveSelect, adaptive xenon headlights, hill start assistant, S-Line package and a long etc., which leaves our brand new Audi for approximately €63.000 (rate fare)

Final assessment

We are without a doubt before an excellent car that will please any driver profile. On one side can be docile, comfortable and versatile when desired, and instead surprise us with some sports performance and very rewarding sensations in demanding driving.

The 3.0 TDI V6 Diesel engine is a marvel of strength, being the change Triptronic your ideal complement. The paddles on the steering wheel will allow us to take it in the regime that we want without the car having an excessive tendency to "think for itself". If we leave it in the "auto" position, it works so well that many drivers will not even remember that they can use it in sequential mode.

Finally, given the gsheer amount of equipment it can carry and the striking exterior design, the Audi A4 Avant 3.0 TDI Quattro can act as rendering saloon without any blush before more appropriate models for that purpose.
That if, to acquire a unit like the one in these photoss we will have to disburse a lot, a lot of money. Do without expensive extras like the 19-inch wheels or the integrated browser will help us lower the final bill, although it will still be high. It is clear that you cannot take the best of the four rings at a bargain price... 🙂
