Anyone else heard about this? Is it true?

If so, that would be sweet!

I'm not shure if you're going to get the 8 speed tiptronic....my guess is the same 7 speed s-tronic (DSG) that I already have on my C7

One of the issues Audi has is the available space in engine conpartment, since inline 4 need more space than a V6. With the new A4, Audi introduced a 2.0tfsi with quattro and S-tronic and I believe A6 is getting the same combo

You Americans should embrace the S-tronic transmission, faster and more economical than manual, and delivers same comfort as a tiptronic

I would have loved it if Audi gave us the 7 Speed DSG like you lucky European owners...sadly they didn't want to give us that option...we can add it to the list of options they don't release out of Europe.

From every review I read about the 7-Speed DSG, everyone is praising it...In the US it is offered in the S4
