New Audi Vehicles Overview
Audi’s reputation for quality interiors and performance driven cars has propelled it to the upper echelon of luxury car makers, and its 2011 lineup shows why. This year Audi has made numerous tweaks to its existing vehicles, inside and out.
The A3, Audi’s entry level five-door hatchback gets new chrome trim pieces and is also available with a diesel engine for greater efficiency.
Audi’s A4 sedan/wagon, as well as its high-performance S4 counterpart, undergoes a few small trim level changes and more notably get a transmission upgrade to a new eight-speed automatic from the old six-speed box of last year.
The A5 sport coupe also gets the updated transmission as well as new wood paneling on the interior. The more powerful S5 ups the ante with a larger engine and performance enhancing tuning.
For 2011, the A6 luxury sedan and its S6 performance counterpart receive a few minor updates. The sportier S trim is now standard on both models, as is navigation and Audi’s MMI infotainment system.
The flagship A8 sedan is the most luxurious vehicle in Audi’s lineup and this year gets a revised direct-injected V-8. It also features innovative tech like a touch pad for data entry and a navigation system that works with the cruise control to maximize efficiency.
Audi’s Q5 and Q7 SUVs both get powertrain updates for 2011. The smaller Q5 gets a new turbocharged four-cylinder engine and the eight-speed automatic transmission, while the Q7 gets a brand new supercharged, 3.0-liter V-6 and the eight-speed transmission as well.
We would be remiss not to mention Audi’s line of sports cars, the TT, it’s more powerful cousin the TTS, and the supercar challenging R8.
The TT gets a facelift and an engine upgrade, lifting the 211-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder from the A4.
The sportier TTS also gets a refreshed exterior and a new set of wheels.
Audi’s premiere sports car, the R8, adds a convertible model for 2011 that uses the larger 5.2-liter V-10.
