You are right. There hasn't been a single S4 at any of the three Audi dealers in the greater Dallas area for over 3 months. It stinks!

Yet most dealers still have roughly 60-80 2018 Q5s on the lot and I have seen one dealer in our area that still has 15 SQ5s. I hope AoA isn't waiting for the 2018 Q5s to be sold out before releasing the 2019 A4/S4/A5/S5/Q5s.

For clarification, this is the inventory of one local dealer. Apparently, anyone not in the market for a Q5 or Q7 is out of luck.

Mostly packaging changes. Now there is a Premium trim, the Premium Plus includes navigation, leatherette center console and door armrests, phone box, and rear USB charge ports. Prestige now has driver assistance included in the package (A5 and Q5 family also get park steering assist, but not on the A4 family because of the sidemarker placement in the bumper). And the new front S line bumper is an update for MY19 as well; the rear bumper remains the same on the S4.

Figured I'd get involved in the discussion. The 2019 S4 is now what you can configure on the Audi USA site; on Friday it was still 2018. I just placed a deposit on a 2019 Quantum over Magma premium plus that is at port. My dealer is promising they'll have it delivered by the 20th of this month.

Looks like horsepower is down to 349 for MY2019 (was 354 for 2018). I’m wondering if the engine was overrated to begin with or if there were actual changes to the ECU.

Neither, just a different calculation: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/aud...nward-2962067/
