Audi S4 Cabriotel

Audi S4 Cabriotel

A powerful, attractive-sounding eight-cylinder engine generating 344 bhp and 303 lb-ft, the latest generation of quattro permanent four-wheel drive and a design that creates an air of restrained dynamism: these are the hallmark characteristics of the new Audi S4 Cabriolet. The open-top four-seater crosses the genes of an open sports car with those of an elegant cruiser - a car that offers fascination for all the senses.

The Design

The front end, with the single-frame radiator grille, is visible evidence of the new generation of the S4 Cabriolet. Like the S4 saloon, the Cabriolet features the S specific grid pattern and the redesigned standard xenon headlights.

The bumpers with large air inlets, the aluminum-look casings for the exterior mirrors, the redesigned rear lights and the four oval tailpipes are the distinguishing visual features of the S4 Cabriolet. The Audi S4 Cabriolet is fitted with 18-inch cast aluminum wheels of S design with 235/40 R18 tires.

More than Mere Weather Protection: The Hood

The Audi S4 Cabriolet comes with the electro-hydraulic acoustic hood as standard. It opens entirely automatically in just 21 seconds - even faster than previously. By using new fabrics with a higher material density, the noise level inside is reduced to a level that scarcely differs from that in the Audi A4 saloon. This increases driving pleasure and comfort considerably when driving with the hood up.

Audi offers the hood in three exterior colors. The button only needs to be pressed once to either open or close the soft top. It is likewise possible to do this while the car is moving at speeds of up to 20 mph.

The Interior

Inside, too, the S4 Cabriolet differs in appearance from its brothers. The instrument cluster has the grey dials that are characteristic of S models and special needles.

The electrically adjustable sports seats with a combined leather/Alcantara upholstery are outstandingly comfortable even over long distances. The seats come with an adjustable thigh support and electrically adjustable lumbar support as standard. The new generation of steering wheels now also features in the Audi S4 Cabriolet, with the impact absorber echoing the design of the single-frame radiator grille.
