Understated design

First impressions would have you believe that the new Audi S4 Avant is a family car and to be fair it's a role that the S4 Avant fulfils with panache, with its strong, wide bearing. Look a bit closer though and there are enough hints that the S4 Avant is not all as stately as it seems. For a start there are the gleaming aluminium-effect wing mirror housings, and the '5-V spoke' design, 18-inch alloy wheels in matt black with a diamond cut finish – a sure sign that the S5 Avant is a bit special.

Interior luxury

The interior of the new Audi S4 Avant is where its true nature – that of an exceptionally fast but luxurious performance car – becomes evident for all to see. The exclusive 'S' branding leaps out immediately thanks to the specialist S instrument dials, the inlays are in matt brushed aluminium and  chic contrast stitching abounds. This is still a luxury family car however, and as such the S4 Avant features heated front seats with lumbar support and a pneumatic massage options, and three-part split folding rear seats. There's even a 1,510-litre boot to fit all the shopping you could need.

Engine performance

The new S4 Avant is a naturally fast car, able to travel from 0-60mph in under 4.9 seconds. That's seriously quick, and if you're planning on racing it or taking it around a track it will hit 155mph in short order. Powering this speed is a 3.0-litre turbo V6 petrol engine that gives out 349bhp and 500Nm of torque from as little as 1,300rpm. The engine itself is lighter than previous models, 14kg lighter in fact, but it does give you more miles to the gallon at 37.3mpg.​

Technology and safety

As a luxury family estate car, the new Audi S4 Avant comes with as many entertainment features and options as you would expect. For music lovers there's DAB digital radio capability, Audi Sound System and a CD player. Elsewhere there's MMI Navigation Plus, which is displayed on a generous 8.3-inch, high resolution, colour screen.

Safety is also well covered, with the S4 Avant featuring a cruise control system that comes with a speed limiter and freewheeling capability, six airbags and multi-collision brake assist.
