ABT experts have showed the loaded Audi Avant

I’ve always wanted to own a loaded compact and “gotten into shape” German station wagon, moreover if the car is made by the renowned masters – ABT tuners. Recently the tuner has showed the new A4 Audi Avant. What a beauty!

The novelty is simply stunning. The motorsport concept and huge experience in the niche help the experts realize their ambitious plans. And the car got exactly what was needed.

First of all – nothing unnecessary and no showing-off

It can even be called “quite modest”. The modification program features aerodynamics development in the shape of a brilliant body-kit, where the proportion, sharpness and precision of the dynamics makes the European “barn” a real top car for city drive. The huge advantage of the car is a helical suspension with DTM bolide parts. The suspension is possible to set to various modes (as regards the degree of tension and compression), which enables to modify the clearance according to your own driving style. The brakes – durable steel (the alternative – carbon-ceramics), and the road contact is enabled by 19- or 20” rims with the appropriate sport tires.

As for the power unit program, the tuner made its best to give the audience at least a few options to choose from. Practically all of them are chip-tuned.

The basic variant is a 1.8-liter TFSI with 160 bhp which is can be pumped to 200 and 240 bhp. The next variant is a 2.0-liter TDI which can be loaded to 170 or 200 bhp. The top variant – 3.0-liter TDI with 240 bhp, and the tuner can make it 282 (or 310) bhp. The max torque after the modification makes 610 Nm.

The interior is typical of ABT

Not many novelties here! The furnishing by the tuner has become slightly standardized recently. The standard set is carbon, leather, alcantara and aluminum. And, of course, the “rich” multimedia system with a play station.

The prices haven’t been announced yet.

Technical Summary:

  • Car Name – ABT Audi A4 Avant
  • Engine – 3.0-liter TDI
  • Power - 310 bhp
  • Max torque – 610 Nm
  • Price – no announcements
