Audi A3, Audi A4, Audi TT: No more 3.2 V6 for the US!

Audi A3, Audi A4, Audi TT
Audi will drop the 3.2 V6 engine from the Audi A3, Audi A4 and Audi TT lineup, at least in the US.
Since the 2009 Audi A4's introduction last year, the number of sedans rolling off dealer lots equipped with the company's turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four versus the 3.2-liter V6 has been nine-to-one. With almost 90% of all A4s equipped with the peppy, fuel-efficient and thoroughly entertaining four-pot, Audi has decided to cease offering the V6 on the A4 – along with the A3 and TT – for the 2010 model year.

"We're not backing away from the V6 strategy," Audi's U.S. Corporate Communications head, Bradley Stertz told Autoblog, "We're recalibrating our mix."
