Audi A4 S-line
Audi seems to be giving up much of its “understated elegance” to a dashing, sporty appearance. With 180 bhp to play with, its 2 T engine generates enough torque to gain quick acceleration at rpm as low as 2000. Yet, I would say it parts with its power steadily rather than swiftly. Banking is admirable, sweeping curves are snug and smooth at 70 plus speeds. Even though there is a slight “hurtling-down” feel at high-speed dashes, one really feels safe inside the new Audi A4: My baby slept without a sigh!
A5
The changeover from the A4 to A5 took just two minutes – so the adrenaline could pick me up from where it left me. The signature Quattro all-wheel drive made sure the extra 30 horses (211 bhp from the 2 T powerhouse) left the A4 experience half a mile behind in a minute. On the busy highway, mid-drive thrusts proved powerful enough to make a hundred-metre breach in traffic seem like an airport runway. With a relatively silent engine, you end up being a distinguished glimpse rather than a dominating menace on the road. The flipside: backseat comfort still belongs to the A4!
