TFSI supposedly stands for turbo fuel stratified injection. But it's supercharged...

Gets worse dude

"In fact, compared with many naturally aspirated V6 engines with more cylinders , TFSI delivers the same sporty performance but using 10 to 15% less fuel."

I wish my V6 came with more cylinders!

It's because Audi is lazy and wants to reuse their marketing materials explaining the benefits of turbocharging as also applying to supercharging.

And also because people associate (insert displacement here)T badges with forced induction.

But hey at least they also have this SUPERCHARGED badge:

And the page for the RS7's engine shows a transmission, definitely written by intern.

I firmly believe that ze Chermans are up to something sneaky. BMW abandoning their naming convention, Merc abandoning theirs, and now Ow-dee who I will now refer to as "Innie" because everything is all back-asswards

take out the "V6" and it makes perfect sense, since the 3.0"T" is generally replacing larger V8's, but yeah. That's either a typo or really weird.

On the B8 S4 forums, people have been trying for years to find some rhyme or reason as to who gets the "3.0T" fender badges and who gets the "Supercharged" badges.
