Happy days are here again, the return of the awesome Audi RS4 Avant is not too far away and today these leaked images have emerged to whet our collective appetites.
It now appears certain this month’s earlier rumour suggesting the RS4 Avant would debut at the Geneva Motor Show is correct. That means we’ll have official details very soon, but for now expect the RS4 to use a direct copy of the drivetrain from the RS5. Power is expected to come in the form of a normally aspirated 4.2 litre V8 kicking out 331kW/430Nm coupled to a double clutch gearbox with a tricky crown-gear differential at the heart of its quattro all-wheel drive system. Enough to dispatch 100km/h in around 4.7 seconds.
New elements have been added to the styling of the RS4, as you can see in the image above. The rear looks to be a translation of RS5 styling, with fat oval exhaust tips indicating the car means business. The new RS4 will start with MY13 production, which means it also gets the revised headlight design from the regular A4. Nice fat flared guards have also made it onto the wagon bodywork ensuring our lust for the RS4 Avant reaches new heights.

Thank God they haven’t killed off the RS Avant! Love the rear with the pumped guards, though the front 3/4 shot looks a bit funny with the squared off guards, the tapering crease in the fender, and the bonnet shut line? I’m sure it’ll be good in the metal though.
