Congrats. Is the 2.0 T the only available engine there?

It will hopefully be here in June.... looking very similar to this.
Here's a picture of the interior I'm ordering.

Yes.... unfortunately. TDI would make it the perfect vehicle.

Congrats dude. Really interested in price if u don't mind sharing on the ballpark

Nothing confirmed on pricing, but I've read Audi is looking at a $1,500 to $2,000 above the pricing of the A4 Avant --- which would put the base price around $38k.
Mine is ordered with Premium Plus and the layered oak inlays for the interior. I'm guessing price will be around $43k before my discounts.

When I move to Denver w/ g/f and we.look for new winter wagon it will be between allroad and xc70. Would have added outback in there but I absolutely hate the look ok the latest gen.

I think this new Allroad is really well done, but the single drivetrain choice is disappointing. I'm sure it will drive well, but a TDI/6-Speed combo would be just awesome for this car. It sucks when Audi offers great TDI engines and manual gearboxes, yet expecting their availability in a car like this puts you in a dream world. Oh well, it should be a good choice for those looking for a slightly more upscale alternative to a Legacy Outback.

Are these designed to be off road vehicles? I can't figure it out. What sets these apart from "regular" 4x4 Audi sedans and wagons?

Yeah they are designed for light offroading and excellent all-weather capability. They have quite a bit more ground clearance than a regular A4. Designed for people who don't want or need a CUV/SUV. Pretty much the only manufacturer who has regularly offered such a type of vehicle until now has been Subaru, with a few oddball oddball exceptions like Volvo's XC70 Cross Country and Audi with the original A6 Allroad.

Wow, that's a lot cheaper than I would have expected. Congrats

What is the curb weight of this beast?
I'm really interested in this configuration, but am hard pressed to unload my very new 2008 sLine avant for a bigger heavier car with essentially the same engine. (+11hp?)
It's very pretty though. I guess if you put an air suspension on it you'd actually have what I always liked about the original, slammy freeway ride and lifty dirt roadness.

Congrats!
I am hoping this allroad will be successful enough for Audi of America to consider importing the larger Audi A6 allroad as well to complement the smaller model.

You think you hate it now. Wait til you drive it.
#29
[Have not checked the Allroad microsite...]
How much ground clearance will it have? Not thinking of rock climbing kind of off-roading but can it handle low tide soft sand and sand dunes on 4x4 beach? If it can, it will be on my radar.

Congrats. Very interested in one, however I'm not very impressed with my 2.0T in my 11 so I'm debating.
