subject: Audi A5 Engine Proves Sometimes Less Is More [print this page] Audi engineers agree that the 4 cylinder engine in the 2012 Audi A5 is capable of incredible performance when compared to its competition, including those sporting 6 cylinders. The 2.0 TFSI engine used in the 2012 Audi A5 is an innovative design that partners direct-injection gasoline with effective turbocharging capabilities. The result is a vehicle more powerful, more controlled, and definitely more fun to drive.
To understand how the Audi A5 2.0 TFSI engine achieves such performance, we should examine its history and design.
Audi Fan Engine of Choice
The 2.0 TFSI engine is the engine of choice among over 1.3 million Audi drivers across California and throughout the world. Featured in the Audi A5 and the Audi A6, it has brought home countless awards and continues to thrill drivers day in and day out. It is capable of producing a menacing 211hp and provides 258lb-ft of torque. Matched with the aluminum body frame of the Audi A6 and the Audi A5, it results in some pretty powerful speed and control. The 2012 Audi A5 races from 0-60 in just 6.2 seconds and will leave your competition staring blankly at the beautiful back end of this sporty coupe sedan.
A Marriage of Audi Technologies
The reason the 2.0 TFSI engine is so effective is due in part to an innovative combination of engineering technologies. Compressed air enters the engine allowing more air in each of the four cylinders to boost power during each ignition. A specific amount of gasoline is then directly injected in to the engine cylinder for precise combustion. Thanks to the higher compression ratio and cylinder pressures, the Audi A5 2.0 TFSI provides increased performance on a smaller engine still capable of big power.
