S4 does all things well... on level pavement
The Audi S4 offers a terrific blend of performance, utility, comfort, safety, economy, and value. A passenger once remarked "You've found the perfect car!". This vehicle can instantly adapt to any driving style on-demand. The updated torque-biased "quattro" all-wheel drive design improves on even the venerable prior Torsen differential AWD system. The AWD on the S4 longitudinal drive train is still a highly reliable mechanical drive system that proactively prevents wheel slip rather than relying upon reaction to arrest slip as found on most competing AWD systems. Unfortunately, the very limited vehicle ground clearance can abruptly circumvent this highly capable AWD in moderate depth snow or on poor roadway surfaces. It would be great if the Audi Drive Select suspension feature could also permit increased ground clearance when forced to operate in challenging roadway clearance conditions.
