The same holds true today. All efficiency technologies – both those already developed and those
in the pipeline – are available to the Company’s complete product portfolio through the modular
efficiency program, thereby helping to improve fuel efficiency and cut CO2 emissions in all Audi
brand vehicles.
AUDI’S MODULAR EFFICIENCY PROGRAM
1) from 2009
The latest-generation Audi A4 is yet another example of how successfully all these measures can
be combined. For instance, thanks to cutting-edge diesel technology used for its powerful
88 kW (120 hp) engine, the A4 2.0 TDI sedan achieves an average consumption of 5.1 liters of
diesel fuel per 100 kilometers. The CO2 emissions of this front-wheel-drive manual model are an
excellent 134 g/km. Developments in the field of gasoline engines are no less impressive. The
current Audi A4 2.0 TFSI with manual transmission and front-wheel drive has achieved a notable
reduction in average CO2 emissions by almost one quarter compared with the Audi A4 1.8 T from
the year 2000 – even though its power output has been increased by up to 20 percent.

Such notable improvements in efficiency have also been achieved in other car lines as well.
For example, improvements made to the Audi A3 and Audi A6 models last year have seen
their average fuel efficiency enhanced by up to 15 percent compared with their respective
predecessors.
