# data.attributes.body.value
Audi has revealed its new A4 allroad at the Detroit Motor Show, along with a specsheet which shows plenty of evolution from the previous incarnation.

34mm of extra ground clearance sit chiefly among Audi’s boasts for this latest version, which – depending on the model – is as much as 90kg lighter as a result of some clever weight shedding across all areas of the car.

This is despite the body growing in size, now just 250mm shy of being a whopping 5 metres long.

Then there are the engines. Available as either a diesel or a petrol, the A4 allroad quattro will chuck out anything between 148bhp and 268bhp across the range of power units.

At the top end, the 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol is capable of producing 442.5lb ft of torque and a 0-60mph time of five and a half seconds, while the top speed is limited to a not insignificant 155mph. More than enough for your local Autobahn.

At the bottom of the spectrum lies the 148bhp 2.0-litre diesel, which offers 236lb ft in comparison.

In any case, you’ll be able to make the tank last that little bit longer too. The 1,968cc, 187bhp 2.0-litre diesel offers 57.7mpg, which translates into 128g of CO₂ per km.

Naturally, AWD is standard on all editions of the quattro, with a choice between a six-speed manual, seven-speed S tronic and (for the first time) an eight-speed tiptronic at buyers’ disposal on various versions of the car.

And Audi hasn’t forgotten to garnish this latest offering with techy bits either. An optional extra on the tailgate means drivers can open the boot “via a foot gesture”, while the top version features “traffic sign glare reduction”. If that doesn’t make you want to part with your money right this second, we don’t know what will.

What do you make of the new allroad?
