new S4 actually most precisely characterizes the slogan, devised by marketologami Audi: "it is more rapid than you think". If earlier than "eski" through their dynamic and running qualities they find somewhere in the center between series Audi A and by the racing Audi RS, then present became considerably more powerfully and close approached the automobile ales 1000 those. Instead of the 2,7- liter turbirovannogo motor by power hearth 260 of "horsies" now to S4 places the 344- strong eight-cylinder V- descriptive engine with a volume of 4,2 liters.

V this new atmospheric motor with the chain drive of tappet shafts successfully are combined two important characteristics: high oborotistost' (highest efficiency it is removed with 7 thousand r/min.) and the solid torque on the small (already in region 3 its thousand curve it leaves to the maximum into 410 N/m).

4 itself was convinced of the fact that to pursue the new S4 - matter useless. Sev for the control of far from weakest Alfa Romeo 156 my friend, I rejected the idea of pursuit. however,

On the first straight line the fatty stern of "eski recently loomed before me" into the schitanye instants became two red points of backing lamps at the horizon.

Among the series auto- "civil appearance" only units are capable of carrying out the norm of 6 seconds to hundred and of composing competition S4 in the dynamics of acceleration. Remaining rivals - continuously sportkupe, reckless rodstery and predstavitel'skiye super-sedans by price far beyond €y00 of thousand.

However, S4 also do not be among budgetary automobiles - "four" sedan 4,2 quattro in the base assembly stands from $86,2 thousand, but specialist - from $87,9 thousand rolling in this machine, I attempted to find answer to the question: does stand the pleasure of such money?

If we are oriented only to the dynamics of acceleration, then undoubtedly it stands. Start S4 - this sensation, strong doubly, since the machine, as present beast, jumps forward, being repulsed by all by four wheels. Indeed the sport fuse Audi - this is, first of all, the complete drive Quattro. And S4 not exception, it confidently is accelerated even on the wet or slippery coating. But what juicy sound in this case escapes from the engine! The hoarse growl of the shestitsilidrovykh motors of classmates seems evil and by helpless...

In Ingol'tshtadte excellently worked also on tuning of the electronic pedal of gas. The reaction of engine follows practically immediately, without the delays and excellently demonstrates the prime advantage of atmospheric motor - absence of turboprovalov.

Sensitivity of pedal in the initial phase is reduced and makes it possible to be moved in the plugs quietly, without the jerks and the threat to peck someone into the back. But if we accelerator press down sharper and it is deeper, then it becomes immediately clear on the jerky peep of tires that through ESP and complete drive to the wheels was piled the terrible force. Sin here to not recall about technical izyskakh in device S4: to the wear and tear of the electronic system of directional stability it departs 2 hundredth seconds, to the redistribution of torque to the axis with the greatest cohesion - 0,03 seconds.

If already turned the discussion to the technical finesses, then 4, perhaps, would prefer S4 with the mechanical box. Certainly, six-stage Tiptronic with the possibility of manual gearshift and the sport regime is good, but complete control over thrust motor it does not nevertheless give. Contemporary "automata" with the moved adaptive brains yet did not learn to be such quick mediators as the well designed "knobs". But still I preferred to see on the console of control knopochku of turning off A.BS. Consider this whim, but in the machine with this effective and predictable retarding this system also is received as not always appropriate reinsurance.

Interior S4 - this is a compromise between the comfort and sport brutal'nost'yu. The ways of limousine error-free they guess in how purely sounds audiosistema, and in how rapidly separate climate- control establishes in the salon the assigned temperature. The racing habits of machine are emphasized in the finishing: on the thresholds are established wide metallic cover plates with the logotype "S4", torpedo shows off by inserts under the carbon. Modest diameter three-spoked control with the small flows in the region of gallant is sheathed by the skin with the exceptional carefulness. Aluminum is used besides sandpapers in the finishing - powerful plate with the rounded off edges frames the slot guide of "automaton".

Directly let us say, is not too "recklessly" made instrument panel. Between two standard scales is put the bright large display of on-board computer, to which besides important information is derived the mass of secondary numbers.

The most visible and most successful element of salon undoubtedly are seats Recaro with the kombinirovannoy upholstering and all possible electro-adjustments. Compare them not I will be with the "ladles" of racing automobiles - the comfort of landing here they did not begin to sacrifice of "iron" fixation. But excellently they manage their straight responsibility Recaro: insert from the blue suede does not make possible for body to slide, rollers under them do not resile and it is at the same time sufficiently yielding in order not to load the spine of driver with the unhealthy impacts, which appear with the work of sport suspension. Place for the rear passengers spacious you will not name as, perhaps, and the dimensions of baggage carrier. But only if we place S4 in one row with the sedans analogous in the classification. However, in the comparison with any sportkarom S4 - simply the van for freight handling and passengers!

However, hardly for passengers will be succeeded in delight in by comfort in this machine, if driver begins to use all its sport abilities. Certainly, with rough maneuvers S4 practically it does not allow bank and pecks. But the ability to dissipate pushes by 4 would define as mediocre. Are such already the laws of sportkarovskogo genre - you want so that the reactions of automobile would be rapid and distinct, reconcile yourself with hardness. So that if shaking is badly transferred by organism, then it is necessary to select either the roads of porovney or automobile with the more comfortable characteristics of suspension.

Me in this machine somewhat set another. With the irreproachable as a whole ability to repeat the profile of road S4 it passes on the gently sloping waves. In spite of the stopped up suspension, automobile begins to lose directional stability, as soon as hint to the vertical rocking appears. When you fly at the high speed in the section of road with the ruts, the dents or the uneven patches, then it is necessary to be to ready for the fact that the machine will require podrulivaniy over the customary measure. Tension appears also in the rapid turnings with the gently sloping unevennesses: without the timely correction by control in the desired trajectory machine to hold complex. Confidence so necessary in such cases moves only responsive steering control, in which at the acceptable level is expressed the feedback with the road.

So do cost those money, which do request after S4, the pleasure from its possession? Honestly speaking, 4 so he did not understand. Then I can say for sure one: I ceased to indifferently pass by Audi with unit plate S this automobile actually it proved to be more rapid after close acquaintance with this machine than I thought.
