From 1999 to B8: A Continuous RS4 Legacy
RS4 models have been produced for every generation of the Audi A4 since the line’s introduction in 1999, making the RS4 a long‑standing performance badge. The B8 generation continued this tradition, representing the fourth major RS4 iteration.
The Naturally‑Aspirated V8 Era (2012‑2015)
The B8 RS4, built between 2012 and 2015, is celebrated for retaining a naturally‑aspirated V8 engine—a rarity in later RS models. This powerplant helped cement the B8 RS4’s reputation as a V8 legend within Audi’s performance lineup.
Wagon‑Only Continuation and Ongoing Parts Support
Unlike earlier generations, the B8 RS4 was offered only as a 5‑door estate (Avant), as other body styles did not continue into this generation. Despite the model’s age, parts such as supercharger intercoolers and other components remain in production and readily available for owners.
