| New Model Preview | 2008 Geneva Motor Show | Audi A4 Avant |
Audi is making big claims for its new A4 Avant estate, saying that it will offer the most load space of any compact executive load carrier. It has 1,430-litres of cargo capacity with the rear seats folded.
That's enough to better the
BMW 3 Series Touring, but Mercedes will have something to say about Audi's claims. The Merc C-Class Estate has a maximum boot capacity of 1,500-litres, so well have to wait till the cars are side by side to see whose is biggest...
The A4 Avant uses the same engines and suspension as the
newly introduced saloon and all V6-powered cars will have quattro four-wheel drive as standard.
Prices should start at around £22,500 when the Avant goes on sale in the UK in June.
