The 3.0-liter, 240-hp diesel that first served in the Audi Q7 has been assigned to duty in the Audi A4. We drove the 3.0 in the Q7 during last year’s Audi Mileage Marathon, and both mileage and power didn’t disappoint. Put into the A4, the oil burner with 369 lb-ft should shine like Alpha Centauri.
Audi says it will get you to sixty in 6.2 seconds with the six-speed Tiptronic and return 35 mpg at the same time as it already meets the Euro 6 standards coming in 2014. It’s unlikely we’ll get the treat in this corner of the Western Hemisphere, but that doesn’t mean we won’t keep looking out for it… especially as an Avant… with those wheels…
