Overview
The 2014 Audi S4 is a compact sedan offered in 2 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $48,100. For that price, it mainly competes with the Cadillac ATS Luxury Sedan, the Infiniti Q50 Sedan, and the Mercedes-Benz C 400 4Matic Sedan. Between 2 trims, the S4 offers a single powertrain option. It is a 3.0L supercharged V6 engine making 333 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The S4 reaches 60 mph from zero in 4.9 seconds with the manual transmission, which gets pumped up to 4.6 seconds with the automatic. Depending on the powertrain, the S4 can manage a combined fuel economy of between 20 and 21 mpg. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 10 striking colors the S4 comes in really pull you towards itself.
