While the entire interview sheds light on many interesting current and future developments, one question made our ears perk up just a little higher. Will a new RS4 be coming to America? Trying to hold back a Cheshire grin, Mr. de Nysschen’s response seemed very optimistic that a new RS4 could be produced. And if it does, he would be “very interested” in bringing the car to America.
Regarding production of a new RS4 and future U.S. availability, de Nysschen answers as follows. “There has in fact not been a formal decision to produce an RS4 even for Europe. But you know, if we look at our long history of producing RS versions of all our S models. And since there is an S4. I would say that if what’s done in the past is any indicator, it’s possible that an RS4 version could be produced. And then I would certainly be very interested in bringing it to this market.”
Reading between the lines (and reading de Nysschen’s body language), we’re now nearly certain that a RS4 will again be produced and eventually come to America.
