Audi Brand Glossary
Shopping for a new Audi model? There’s plenty to love about every vehicle at Audi Van Nuys. In fact, there are several proprietary features that make Audi automobiles truly special. Here, we discuss five of our favorites.
quattro® All-Wheel Drive
quattro® all-wheel drive, which you’ll find available on new Audi models and Audi Certified Pre-Owned vehicles, combines driving dynamics, traction, and efficiency in one incredible system. One of its main components is variable torque split, which distributes power to the front and rear wheels based on which area needs it most. The other core component, torque vectoring, transfers torque to the outside wheel to enhance turning precision and overall performance.
TFSI® Engine Technology
TFSI®, which stands for “turbocharged fuel stratified injection”, is the Audi brand’s proprietary gasoline engine technology. Through an innovative combination of turbocharging and direct fuel injection, TFSI® enhances performance and efficiency, equating to higher horsepower, higher torque, and lower emissions compared to traditional gas engines.
MMI® Infotainment System
Audi MMI® is the infotainment nexus for driver-controlled technologies such as navigation, media playback, phone connectivity, and climate settings. MMI® integrates with all the latest connectivity features, including Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and Audi connect® digital services. Moreover, on the newest models at our Van Nuys, CA, Audi dealership, MMI® integrates over-the-air software updates and AI-powered voice assistance.
Virtual Cockpit Plus®
If you like the idea of a centralized system for navigation, audio, and safety data, you’ll love Virtual Cockpit Plus®. It features a high-definition screen with customized digital gauge cluster displays, immersive graphics for full-screen navigation maps and vehicle data, and personalized profiles for multiple drivers. All this critical information is displayed in the driver’s line of sight for safe, eyes-on-road driving.
S line® Performance
Available for select models, S line® introduces sportier aesthetics and enhanced performance without altering core engine performance. Rather than being a stand-alone trim, S line® is a package that includes both exterior and interior upgrades. In the former category are enhancements such as aerodynamic body styling and a lowered suspension, while the latter integrates upgrades such as sport seats and brushed aluminum sport pedals.
