Default Someone came up with a reasonable explanation before...

Since technically the S4 Avant is the newest S4, they are comparing it to that. Obviously it's a stupid comparison, but that's my best guess.

Isn't the S4 Avant faster than the sedan due to different gearing?

No ... per Audi's 0-60 times, .1 sec slower ... Avant is heavier, same gearing.
