A luxury MPV?

According to a recent report, Audi is developing a new model which could be called the A4 Sportback, A4 Avantissimo or A4 Superavant.

Little is known about the car, but it will reportedly be an MPV that is based on the next-generation A4. It would be larger than the A4 Avant and have a high roofline as well as an extended wheelbase. To help distinguish the model from the rest of the lineup, it could feature unique styling by Italdesign.

Engine options are rumored to include a 2.0-liter four-cylinder petrol with 255 hp (190 kW / 259 PS) and a 2.0-liter TDI that develops 197 hp (147 kW / 200 PS) and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque.

If everything pans out, a concept could be introduced in 2014 with a production model following in 2016.

MPV is one market that brands below Audi, BMW and Merc do well in, if it's done right and doesn't exceed £25k for base model then it has a fighting chance for success but only if it doesn't follow the 5GT formula.
 
^ Not feeling the looks of this PS. For a start the whole objective of an MPV is practicality and the slope of this boot doesn't appear to be super cavernous.

It does have a 5008 thing going on but I actually like it, those Audi detailing and flair compliment the shape.
 

Audi

Audi AG is a German automotive manufacturer of luxury vehicles headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. A subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, the company’s origins date back to the early 20th century and the initial enterprises (Horch and the Audiwerke) founded by engineer August Horch (1868–1951). Two other manufacturers (DKW and Wanderer) also contributed to the foundation of Auto Union in 1932. The modern Audi era began in the 1960s, when Volkswagen acquired Auto Union from Daimler-Benz, and merged it with NSU Motorenwerke in 1969.
