The early 1990s marked a steady period of refinement for Audi, with models that bridged conservative design and emerging technology. Enthusiasts and buyers at the time could choose from sedans, coupes and estates that prioritized build quality and drivability over flash.
There are 9 1993 Audi Models, ranging from Audi 100 to Audi V8. For each entry you’ll find below the data organized by Body style(s), Engines (L / kW), Markets so you can quickly compare configurations and regional availability — you’ll find below.
Which 1993 Audi models were sold in the United States?
Availability depended on trim and year, but several core models (notably the Audi 100 and V8) were offered in North America while others were limited to Europe or select markets; check the Markets column in the list below to see exactly which versions and body styles were sold in the U.S.
What does “Engines (L / kW)” mean and how should I read it?
That column lists engine displacement in liters (L) followed by power in kilowatts (kW); L tells you the engine size and kW indicates peak power (you can convert kW to horsepower by multiplying by ~1.34), which helps compare performance across models.

Images and Descriptions
Audi 80
Compact executive offered in sedan and practical Avant form on the B4 platform; front-wheel drive with optional quattro. Noted for efficient engine breadth, strong build quality and serving as Audi’s mainstream 1993 family car.
Audi 100
Mid-size C4 flagship in 1993, the 100 balanced comfort and tech with sedan and Avant bodies. Known for roomy interiors, available V6 and diesel power, and as the predecessor to the later A6 range.
Audi V8
Audi’s luxury flagship of the era, the V8 featured a smooth 3.6‑litre V8, quattro drivetrain and high‑spec trim. It represented Audi’s early push into luxury markets with high levels of standard equipment.
Audi Coupé
Sporty two‑door based on Audi’s compact platforms, available with quattro on higher engines. The Coupé blended everyday usability with a sleeker profile and performance-oriented options in 1993.
Audi Cabriolet
Late‑’80s/early‑’90s soft‑top revival, sold through the early ’90s; the Cabriolet was a classic two‑door convertible with V6 options and a focus on refined cruising rather than outright sportiness.
Audi S2 Coupé
Factory high‑performance coupé derived from the Coupé quattro; the S2 used a turbocharged 2.2‑litre engine and quattro grip to offer genuine sports‑car performance while retaining Audi practicality.
Audi S4 (B4)
Performance version of the B4 80/90 line in 1993, the S4 combined a high‑revving turbo 2.2‑litre engine with quattro all‑wheel drive. Sought after for brisk performance and tunable power delivery.
Audi 80 quattro (factory variant)
Factory‑offered quattro versions of the 80 provided all‑wheel drive traction and touring confidence. Popular in markets with winter conditions and as a badge of Audi’s AWD capability in compact executive cars.
Audi 100 quattro / Avant quattro (factory variant)
Audi offered quattro drivetrain on many 100 variants in 1993, emphasizing all‑weather stability for mid‑size buyers and complementing the model’s upscale, comfortable appointments.
