its a station wagon so it wouldn't sell in the US

[newbrand1]

Its not SUV, but just in case you get stuck don't worry about it.

[newbrand1]

Great car.

[TangoR34]

why are ppl keep winging about not coming to the US? If you want one, import one yourself! I'm sure there are lots of specialist out there who can help you slip it thru the net.

[kubomon17]

the us is getting shafted lately with all the new cars that arent coming here!

[caraddict520]

wtf this makes me so angry!!! the last version came to the US and sold fairly well!!!!!!! plus this thing is good looking!

[alinjohn1960]

hahah QUATTRO = four

[87TAGTABANDIT]

It should be released in the US i don't understand why not?

[kevinmauzey]

The industry gets what the people want, it's just the general public who still think bigger is better.

[anthony6151]

Probably not coming to the US because it's a diesel

[rudolphna54]

which is crap, because diesels are much better than Gasoline engines.

[sspope]

Big cars are better with diesel engines, no doubt about it. Especially for cruising on highway, diesel engines make gasoline engines look ridiculous.

But when it comes to smaller cars with small 1.2 - 1.6 litre engine displacements, the petrol is the way to go.

[rudolphna54]

Then why is it in europe over 50% of all cars sold are diesel? because they are more fuel efficient and get much better gas mileage, not to mention they have less emissions.

[sspope]

Because almost all people in Europe buy sedans such as Citroen C5 Hdi, VW Passat TDi, Audi A4-A8 with diesel engines.

But smaller cars, mainly hatchbacks have good fuel economy even with petrol engines and they need them because they feel more lively unlike heavy sedans which feel better with diesel engines that have massive torque.

You'd be MPG nerd to buy a small car with diesel. Actually, small turbocharged engines are now becoming popular.

[sspope]

For example VW 1.4 TSI produces 160 bhp and averages 45 mpg.

Fiat 1.4 T-jet 150, 180-abarth bhp

Renault 1.4 TCE 130 bhp

PSA/BMW mini 1.6 THP - 150, 175, 218 bhp

^^ they average more than 40 mpg while having enough power for a small car so why would you want a diesel?

[anthony6151]

The Diesels in America have to pass very rigorous tests to allow diesels in here and that usually means manufacturers adding very expensive equipment to reduce emissions. I'm sure you can find a good article that will tell you more about that.

[jdmman007]

US should promote more sportswagan , it is way way better than the stupid gas sucker SUV .

[cougar08cougar08]

what, so now they cant tell us about cars that are guzzlers? come on now, thats alot of fun cars

[eleanorroosevelt1]

The SUV will never go away even in a tanking economy and high fuel prices. For some reason Americans dig themselves into debt on a SUV, big house, cell phone, etc., then they think they can make up for it by clipping coupons and buying clothes at dollar stores.

[chevcamaro6769]

it should come to the us

[ironchopsticks]

i heard the B&O sound system is not worth it

[apexi957]

I heard different

[ironchopsticks]

i heard from the cnet tech review of the audi B&O system - he said it was crap. i would prolly stick with the premium plus system.

[akuma03]

Nice I like the A4 but no US version oh well
