[s-cars] The Audi as a Fiat

[Taka Mizutani]

'95-01 A4 1.8T quattro (only available '97-01 in US)
'97-04 Passat 1.8T 4Motion (only available '04 in US)
'98-04 A6 1.8T quattro (not available in US)
B5 chassis Skoda Octavia (not available in US)
B5 chassis Seat Toledo? (not available in US)

All of these cars were available with torsen-based AWD and the longitudinal
1.8T.

I guess your post isn't clear to me- if you're asking whether there is a
transverse 1.8T with Torsen- if that is the question, then no, this combo
was not produced. All transverse 1.8T applications with AWD were
Haldex-based, through the A4 and A5 chassis generations, whether they are
Audi, VW, Skoda or SEAT.
