The new Audi RS4 is equipped with an 8-speed Tiptronic transmission, which is not the traditional powershift but rather a new design from ZF. Matched with the 2.9T engine, this transmission showcases outstanding performance.

In terms of engine, the RS4 is powered by a 2.9-liter V6 twin-turbocharged engine with a maximum output of 450 horsepower and a peak torque of 600 Nm.

Notably, this engine is identical to the one produced by Porsche.

The Audi RS4, equipped with the second-generation ZF 8-speed Tiptronic transmission, achieves a transmission efficiency of up to 99.7%, meaning less power loss and higher fuel efficiency.

Furthermore, this transmission features a compact structure and lightweight design, reducing weight by 50-100 kg compared to traditional transmissions, effectively lowering fuel consumption and engine noise.

Hope this information helps you better understand the transmission configuration of the new Audi RS4.
