A4 en USA

[Resomo]

Me ha dado por curiosear qué motores montan los A4 que Audi vende en el mercado americano. Para ello he ido a Audi.com y luego he seleccionado North America y USA. Al entrar en el configurador me he llevado una sorpresa bastante grande:

 

Al contrario que en España siguen una política similar a la que usan las marcas generalistas en cuanto a niveles de equipamiento. Hay tres categorías, cada cual mejor que la anterior. Los precios son también una pasada, aunque no se si hay impuestos no incluidos porque hay un asterisco en el precio, y luego no lo veo por ningún sitio.

 

Una pequeña muestra:

2.0 TFSI® Premium with eight-speed Tiptronic® transmission and quattro® --> $ 36,300 que son unos 27.000 € Para ser el modelo de base está mucho mejor que el modelo de base en España:

 

Señalo en negrita las cosas incluidas en el modelo de base que no vienen en España, empezando por el Tiptronic y el Quattro.
