The 4.2-liter V8 - induction engine based on the engine of the Audi S8 (D2) and makes the S4 a maximum of 253 kW (344 hp). It was shortened by 52 mm in order to be able to accommodate it in the engine compartment of the mid-range car. For this purpose, the camshaft drive was relocated to the clutch side and the camshafts were driven by chains instead of toothed belts .
Externally, the vehicle differs from the normal A4 variants in terms of modified front and rear bumpers, exterior mirrors in aluminum gloss, protruding door bumpers, S4 emblems and larger tailpipes. From the factory, this S4 rolls on 18-inch wheels and 235/40 ZR 18 tires and is 20 millimeters lower.
The S4 has door sills with S4 lettering, a modified instrument cluster with white pointers, sports seats and xenon headlights as standard .
The car in the version with six-speed manual gearbox accelerates from 0-100 km / h in 5.6 seconds (Avant: 5.8 s; Cabriolet: 5.9 s), according to the factory. The automatic transmission variants need between 0.2 and 0.3 seconds longer for this. The top speed is electronically limited to 250 km / h.
Like its predecessor, the vehicle is equipped as standard with Torsen all-wheel drive ( quattro ) with symmetrical torque distribution (50:50) between the front and rear wheels. It is shifted with a fully synchronized six-speed manual gearbox or with an optional six- speed automatic gearbox ( Tiptronic ), which can be switched using rocker buttons on the steering wheel.

The S4 B7 was again presented at the Mondial de l'Automobile in October 2004 for the facelift of the Audi A4 B6 as a sedan and avant. The cabriolet appeared in early 2006, which is why the construction time for the B6 and B7 also overlapped.
Compared to the B6, the design and chassis components have been revised. As in its predecessor, the engine has a maximum output of 253 kW (344 hp) and is offered with a six-speed manual transmission as standard. An automatic transmission was available as an option.
Externally, this S4 looks like the "normal" A4 at first glance thanks to the identical front and rear bumpers of the S line exterior package. Only the modified radiator grille, the aluminum-look exterior mirrors, flared door bumpers and four oval tailpipes set this S4 apart from the other models.
The base price was around 54,000 euros (Avant around 55,000 euros; Cabriolet 62,000 euros). (As of January 2006)
In 2005, on the occasion of the 25th production anniversary of the Audi Quattro, Audi sold a special edition of the Audi S4, limited to 250 pieces, which was fitted with the bumpers of the special model known in Europe as the Audi A4 DTM Edition.
