New Sports Specification for Audi A4 Cabriolet
Audi's A4 Cabriolet range is to have a new Special Edition model in its midsts from this week, with first deliveries arriving in December. Priced from £29,990 on the road, the 2.0 TFSI S line Special Edition A4 Cabriolet features styling enhancements and 'extra interior luxuries', becoming one of the more desireable Cabriolet models 'this side of an RS4'.
Powered by Audi's strong-performing 200 PS, 280 Nm 2.0-litre Turbo FSi petrol engine, which allows for 0-62 mph sprints in 8.2 seconds and a top speed of 146 mph, this Special Edition model aims high in its exterior modifications and increased interior specification. Riding on a lower suspension and exclusive 18-inch 7-arm spoke design alloy wheels, the standard Special Edition already raises the stakes, but with the addition of an S line exterior styling pack at no extra cost, there are further enhancements. A polished black painted grille and a unique new front and rear bumper design are added, while Xenon lamps aid visibility and visual impact.
In the cabin, the upgrades continue. In addition to standard S line leather-upholstered sports seats, leather trimmed S line sports steering wheel, and aluminium inlays, Special Edition A4s feature an upgraded BOSE audio system and six CD changer, rear parking sensors and new aluminium foot pedals. Fully automatic soft-top operation, electric windows and electronic climate control are now included in the Special Edition's list price; extras which would normally cost some £2,035. Read on for further details.

A new version of the sought-after Audi A4 Cabriolet featuring a particularly impressive sports-oriented specification joins the UK range this week. Priced from £29,990 OTR, and available to order now, the new A4 2.0 TFSI S line Special Edition combines styling enhancements with extra interior luxuries to create one of the most covetable Cabriolets this side of the RS 4.
To do justice to its strong performing 200PS, 2.0-litre Turbo FSI petrol engine, the A4 Cabriolet S line Special Edition rides on exclusive 18-inch 7-arm double spoke design alloy wheels with 235/40 R18 tyres and lowered sports suspension. At no extra cost, visual impact can be added by an S line exterior styling pack, which brings a highly polished black painted grille and unique front and rear bumper design with rear diffuser. Xenon head lamps also add to the visual impact, as well as of course providing major benefits in visibility and safety.
Inside, the S line specification, which normally includes trimmings such as Pearl Nappa leather-upholstered sports seats, a perforated leather trimmed S line sports steering wheel and brushed aluminium inlays, is enhanced by an upgraded Symphony audio system with six CD changer, a BOSE speaker system, rear acoustic parking sensors and aluminium foot pedals. Combined, the extra equipment fitted inside and out would normally cost an additional £2,035.
The upgraded Special Edition specification supplements range-wide features such as fully automatic soft-top operation, electric front and rear windows and electronic climate control.
Helped by a healthy 280Nm of torque, available from 1,800rpm, the A4 Cabriolet 2.0 TFSI S line Special Edition with six-speed manual transmission is good for a 0-62mph time of 8.2 seconds and a top speed of 146mph. Combined cycle fuel consumption is an impressive 34.0mpg. True to form, the optional, and still unique-in-class, multitronic continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) permits performance and fuel economy that run the manual version incredibly close, in stark contrast to the majority of conventional ‘stepped’ automatics.
