Default B8 Suspension

Hi everyone! My name is Junco, from Brazil

I have an a4 b8 2014 with Bilstein suspension/Eibach:

Eibach Bilstein B12 Suspension Kit for AUDI A4 Sportline AUE95150110122 45/35mm | eBay

My question is: this suspension fits on a4 b9 2016? Both FWD?

I don't think it does. Else we would have had many who would've already installed aftermarket B8 suspensions in the B9.

Yes, the platforms are different per the following press release:

Chassis and Suspension
The powertrain and chassis of the all-new A4 have been completely redeveloped, allowing for a sportier driving experience and more comfortable ride for long distances. The newly developed S tronic® dual clutch transmission melds efficiency with dynamic shifting characteristics to help optimize fuel consumption. New front five-link suspension allows for greater steering precision and excellent handling through optimized steering-rack placement direct at wheel centers. Handling and comfort enhancements have also improved through the reduced unsprung weight of lightweight aluminum control-arm components and revised elastokinematic attributes.
