Sheesh, that is crazy...... But BMW did a similar thing with their 3-Series nomenclature, where the second and third numbers
(i.e., 328i) indicated engine size - but not always. In some years it didn't work that way, for whatever reason. And Audi's 3.2L V6
actually rounds to 3.1L, but they call it a 3.2..... Ugh, marketing.....

Another interesting nomenclature (that will cause confusion) is the new A6
3.0T. That engine is supercharged, not turbocharged, but they use the T for
brand clarity, as the rep told me last week.

But the confusion is that Audi calls BOTH of it's AWD systems 'quattro',
regardless of the type used.
