it's the exact same system as the "old" A4 used, just badged differently. in
order to get 4Motion as VW calls it, you have to buy the top-o-the-line GLX
V6 Passat. It's the 30v 2.8L V6 with the same setup as quattro. That's how
they keep it cheaper than Audi, by using old technology. I call it Trickle
Down Technology. Sells a lot of Audis anyway.
