Audi S4 TDI: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the S4 TDI rank in its segment?

Among the 27 saloons 2018–2022, the S4 TDI ranks 22th of 27 in 0–100 km/h (4.9 s, behind the BMW M3 Competition xDrive), 18th of 27 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the Kia Stinger GT 3.3T AWD), 23th of 27 in Power-to-weight (196 hp/t, behind the BMW M4 Competition).

How much does the S4 TDI cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a BMW M3 Competition xDrive instead?

The BMW M3 Competition xDrive leads in 0–100 km/h (3.5 s vs 4.9 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the S4 TDI vs BMW M3 Competition xDrive duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
