The Audi’s engine 2.5L TFSI won an "International Engine of the Year Awards" in 2 to 2.5 liter category. This is the thirteenth win overall for Audi.

“The five-cylinder has been indelibly linked to the Audi brand for over 40 years, and we continue to refine and develop it,” said Peter Mertens, Member of the Board of Management for Technical Development at AUDI AG. “Last year we presented the Audi TT RS (combined fuel consumption in l/100 km: 8.5 – 8.2*; combined CO2 emissions in g/km: 194 - 187*), the model in which the newly developed, aluminum five-cylinder is making its debut.”

The judges were impressed not only of the performance of the 2.5L TFSI engine but also of its unique sound. The engine sound reminds to the judges the legendary engine of the Group B rally of the ‘80s.

The new 2.5L TFSI engine is 26 kilograms (57.3 lb) lighter than its predecessor unit using a lightweight alloy crankcase. This enabled the Audi developers to further optimize the axle load distribution for improved handling.
