Audi A4 / S4 B6 for BeamNG.drive
This covers the 2000-2005 B6 generation, bringing both the everyday A4 and the V8-powered S4 into BeamNG.drive on a 100% J-beam structure. It’s a properly fleshed-out early-2000s Audi: full openable parts, functional gauges, PBR materials, smooth lighting with working license plate lights, engine sounds, centralized locking, and even a working alarm system, so it holds up whether you’re driving, posing for screenshots, or messing about in roleplay.
Engines and how they drive
The wide engine range is the real draw here, with 1.6L, 1.8T, 2.0L, 2.5 TDI, 1.9 TDI, and the 4.2L V8 all on offer. That lets you compare petrol, diesel, turbo, and V8 behavior on the exact same platform—the 1.8T is a balanced all-rounder for road use, while the 4.2L V8 S4 gives you a noticeably stronger, more performance-led character. It feels most natural on city streets, highways, and countryside routes; brake early, steer cleanly, and ease the throttle in for the most believable result.
Systems, interior and detail
The fully openable system makes it genuinely useful for garage scenes and inspection, and the centralized locking plus working alarm add interactive flavor you don’t usually get. Inside, the gauge cluster is set up for both A4 and S4 versions, and the cabin is loaded with options and detailed materials for first-person driving and close-ups. Smooth lighting and license-plate illumination carry it through night driving, tunnels, and replays.
Sound and scripting
The engine audio includes real-style behavior for the 4.2L V8 and 1.8T, tying acceleration, cruising, and gear changes to the chosen engine. The LUA script work is credited to Loonzie, adding the scripted functions that drive the car’s interactive systems. Crash behavior, as always, comes down to speed, angle, engine, and impact location.

🔧 Our Test Notes
Hands-on notes from the CrashMods team
Six engines on one platform are the reason to grab this B6, and we treated it like a tasting menu: the 1.6L and 2.0L show you what the everyday A4 felt like, the 1.9 and 2.5 TDI bring the diesel side of the early 2000s, and the 4.2L V8 turns the same body into a proper S4 with a much stronger character. If you only pick one for road duty, the 1.8T is the balanced choice; the V8 is for when you want the performance-led version, and both carry real-style engine audio tied to acceleration and gear changes. The openable panels, functional gauges, central locking, and working alarm made our garage and roleplay sessions noticeably richer. One tip from our runs: this car rewards calm inputs, so brake early and ease onto the throttle for the most believable behavior. Tested on BeamNG 0.38.
