The Car Behind This Bag
2006 · 2.0L TFSI turbo four · Ingolstadt · B7 chassis · the small-grille Audi
The B7 A4 was a transitional Audi — built from 2005 to 2008 as a heavy facelift of the B6 platform, with the all-new "single-frame" front grille that would define every Audi for the next fifteen years. The 2.0-litre TFSI direct-injection turbocharged four was Audi's response to the rising gasoline prices of the mid-2000s and quickly became the volume engine across the entire lineup. The quattro all-wheel-drive system had by then reached its fifth generation and was the visible technical differentiator from the BMW 3 Series.
It was the car the late-2000s North American urban professional bought instead of a 3 Series specifically because the BMW had become predictable. The A4 Quattro of this generation became the alternative cool — the architect's car, the design firm's senior partner's car, the German graduate student's first serious purchase. Mad Men would later put older Audis in period scenes; the contemporary B7 was, at the time, the car the show's actual production designers drove home.
Audi built around 240,000 B7 A4s across the model's run before the B8 replaced it in 2008. The Ingolstadt-fitted leather and brushed-aluminium interiors — with the new MMI infotainment system that introduced an entire generation of buyers to controller-based dashboard interfaces — remain a quietly recognized period statement of mid-2000s German design at its most technically confident.
