Audi will yet again claim its righteous place as a leading player in the compact premium sedans category with its new Audi A4 vehicle. Motoroing.com.za describes the new vehicle as a car that will make the “mighty BMW and Mercedes-Benz empires have a major and deeply uncomfortable problem on their hands…so will the weaker Jaguar, Volvo and Lexus – but with more pain.”

The new Audi A4 will be launched in South Africa this coming May of 2008. The premium vehicle boasts of a 1.8-litre TFSI, 3.2-litre V6 quattro petrol models and a two-litre TDI. The Audi A4 is touted as the most economical car among its compact premium sedan competitors such as Mercedes Benz and BMW because after three years or a 100 000 km mileage the Audi will have depreciated the least among its fellow luxury cars.

The Audi is predicted to truly make a statement when it debuts next year. Mike Rutherford succinctly describes the situation by saying that “Rightly or wrongly, such people often want little more than to be associated with the coolest brand, to be seen in the most stylish car with the most fashionable badge.” Looks like good times ahead for Audi.
