Audi S4 Cabriolet: In-depth

Fourtitude has another in-depth review, this time about the Audi S4 cabriolet.

A powerful, attractive-sounding eight-cylinder engine generating 253 kW (344 bhp) and 410 Newton-metres, 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 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 aluminium-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 aluminium wheels of S design with 235/40 R1 8 tyres.

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.

An open-top sports car!
