2009 Audi A4 Arrives in Thailand

Audi has officially launched the all new A4 in Thailand. The A4 is Audi's biggest selling car globally, and is expected to be the companies biggest selling car in Thailand too. Audi expects the A4 to account for approximately 40% of all Audi sales in the kingdom.

The new A4 is bigger than the model it replaces, and with length increasing by 117 mm to 4,703 mm, and width increasing by 54 mm to 1,826, the A4 is now the biggest medium-sized premium car. Interior space is also class leading, thanks to a very long wheelbase at 2,808 mm, up 166 mm from the previous A4.

The A4 comes to Thailand in completely built up form, and due to heavy tax on such cars, the Audi A4 will be priced at THB 2,890,000! Of course, when you compare to other CBU models in this segment the price is normal, but the A4 is a premium car, and only those with more money than sense will be buying one.

Potential buyers will probably not be too interested in things like fuel efficiency figures, however this is one of the highlights of the A4. It's 1.8 litre TFSI engine produces 160 horses from 4,500 rpm up to 6,200 rpm while returning an average fuel consumption of just 13.5 km/l. Impressive.
