I've driven an A4 Avant with the 2.0 (only motor you can get in the new ones.) I didn't think it was "grossly" underpowered. It seemed fine in normal traffic and no issues merging onto the freeway. Many of the other smaller cars on the road are equally powered. It had enough grunt (and I drive an E63 AMG 6.2L as my daily.)

I could live with it as a basic transport car.
