What you see above is Audi’s recently announced 2010 A4 3.0 TDI Quattro. This vehicle made its debut today at the Frankfurt Motor Show and is expected to hit European dealerships at a none too distant date (which we’ll notifty you of once it is made known).

Anyways, the A4 3.0 TDI Quattro is a clean diesel burning vehicle that features a 240hp engine in addition to a 6 speed Tiptronic transmission that propels the car from 0-60 in 6.2 seconds all while maintaining 35mpg. The only thing that is a bit unpleasing about this vehicle is that there are no current plans to bring it to the North American market.

Audi has recently come forward to give us a look at what we could expect to pay for their A4, A5 and Q5 models when they hit the market.

It seesm that the starting point for the A5 will be $36,000 for the 2.0T Quattro Coupe model. Of course, Audi offers a bunch of premiums that will see the price rocket past $44,000. We don’t have an exact number but apparantly the A4 2.0T will be priced similiar albeit a bit higher than the 2009 model. As for the Q5, you are looking at a starting point of $37,350.

Now, all we need is a price for the 2010 Audi S4 and we’ll be set.

The 2009 Audi A4 is a brilliant road car and is much better balanced than previously. It’s manageable enough to handle bumps like a larger car but firm enough to feel strong and stable to its top speeds. The front-wheel drive version is perhaps not as finely precise as a rear-drive 3-Series but quattro defnitely holds its own against the other all-wheel-drive cars and performs well in the rain compared with other sporty cars.

In spite of the larger outside mirrors wind noise is quieted, road noise is kept to a minimum and the engine is detected only when you’re working it. The least-expensive model is nicely detailed and has an interior hard to beat at the price , although the top-end versions are equipped like autobahn missiles. The budget minded will notice that a larger trunk, more power, better mileage, standard leather, and a reasonable price make a powerful argument for this car.
