Powertrain Options and Availability
As its name suggest, the V8 Quattro sedan was powered by a V8 engine: initially, a 3.6-liter dual-overhead-cam unit that produced 240 horsepower and 245 pound-feet of torque. Only a 4-speed automatic transmission was available in 1990, but a 5-speed manual gearbox could be installed on 1991-92 models. For 1993, a 4.2-liter V8, rated 276 horsepower, replaced the 3.6-liter engine.
