A3: The A3 2.0T S-Line replaces the 2.0T Sport Package; content is the same, plus the S-Line adds unique styling cues. The S-Line package is standard on the A3 3.2.

A4: An all-new Cabriolet (photo) joins the lineup. Powertrain choices are a 200 hp turbo four-cylinder with either front- or all-wheel-drive or a 255 hp V6 with all-wheel-drive.

A6: The wagon (Avant) is now available in an S-Line version. The optional 4.2 liter V8 gets Audi's FSI direct-injection system and a power boost to 350 hp.

A8: The standard 4.2 liter V8 gets FSI and 350 hp. Both V8 and W12 models get upgraded standard and optional equipment.

RS4: (photo) This new uber-hot-rod sedan gets a 4.2 liter V8 engine that revs to a stratospheric 8,250 RPM and produces 420 horsepower. It drives all four wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission.

S4: As with the A4, the S4 is now available as a cabriolet (photo). Power comes from a 340 hp 4.2 liter V8 driving all four wheels.

S6: (photo) This new high-performance version of the A6 gets a 435 horsepower 5.2 liter V10 engine and all-wheel-drive.

S8: (photo) The S8 is powered by the same 5.2 liter V10 as the S6, but its output is increased to 450 hp. Audi claims the big new super-sedan will accelerate from 0 to 60 in less than 5 seconds.

TT: There will be no TT for 2007; instead it will be replaced by an all-new 2008 model to be introduced during the 2007 calendar year. See Audi cars: What's coming in 2008.
