Default Did you know...

The original S4 debuted in 1991 and was based on what was then called the Audi 100 sedan. It came powered by a turbocharged five-cylinder engine with quattro AWD standard. When Audi rechristened the 100 as the A6 in 1994, the vehicle's name was concurrently changed to the S6.

The S4 nameplate resurfaced in 1997 as a sportier version of the A4 sedan. An S4 Avant station wagon joined it two years later. At the time, it was not only the fastest four-door Audi produced, it was one of the quickest sedans available, with its turbocharged V6 engine able to propel the car to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. Again, the quattro AWD system came standard.

The vehicle was redesigned in 2003, at which time it gained a V8 engine and a convertible version called the S4 Cabriolet. The current model was introduced in 2005.
