2016 Audi A4 Avant by
B&B Automobiltechnik
One of the first tuning
companies to take on the latest Audi A4 Avant is called B&B
Automobiltechnik and offers a series of visual and performance upgrades for the
estate.
One of the most popular
engines available on Ingolstadt's wagon in Europe, the 2.0-liter TDI, can be
boosted from 190 PS and 400 Nm of torque to 230 PS and 460 Nm of torque, in Stage 1, which costs € 1,198 (US$ 1,363), while Stage 2 will
bring the total output to 250 PS and 500 Nm of torque, for € 2,950
(US$ 3,357).
The 3.0-liter TDI can also
be massaged from 272 PS and 600 Nm of torque to 310 PS and 670 Nm, for € 1,698 (US$ 1,932), or up to 326 PS and 695 Nm, for € 1,950
(US$ 2,219). Stage 3 will unleash 350 PS and 725 Nm of torque, for
€ 3,950 (US$ 4,495), allowing the car to go from naught to 100 km/h 1.1
seconds faster than the standard model, in 4.5 seconds, and up to 275 km/h.
Petrol burners haven’t been
left aside either as the 2.0-liter TFSI can be had in three stages as well,
from 252 PS and 370 Nm of torque to 300 PS and 430 Nm for € 1,298 (US$ 1,477), to 320 PS and 460 Nm for € 1,798 (US$ 2,046) and
up to 365 PS and 530 Nm, which will set you back for € 7,950
(US$ 9,047). The beefier 3.0-liter TFSI V6 can be upgraded all the way up to 450
PS and 600 Nm of torque, from the standard 354 PS and 500 Nm, in Stage 3, which costs € 5,950 (US$ 6,771).
In order to cope with the
extra power, the 7-speed S tronic and 8-speed Tiptronic transmissions benefit from software optimizations. Aside
from the performance boost, B&B also offers a range of upgrades that include
an extra oil cooling system, coilover suspension, sport spring set, improved
brakes, sports exhaust tips with a sound generator, Caractere aerodynamic
package and 19- or 20-inch light-alloy wheels.
