The launching of the high-performance car will bring Audi back on top of supercar manufacturers. Powerful German cars include Merc's E63 AMG produces 503bhp whilst the BMW M5 generates a mere 500bhp. The RS6's 572bhp peak power arrives at 6250rpm whilst torque is up to an internal-organ-squashing 480lb ft available from just 1500 rpm. The RS6 also outpowers the M5 Touring, which is priced at £67,075.
The RS6 features Quattro four-wheel drive with a 60 percent rear bias, and a six-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox. The standard wheels are 19-inch alloys, and ceramic brakes are an optional extra. With the rear seats folded the boot capacity is a whopping 1,660 liters. Traditionally, the RS Audi's have been available in wagon, sedan or sedan bodies, and the smaller RS4 can already be ordered in each of these configurations.
Supplementing the power bolstered by the engine, the Dynamic Ride Control can be fixed to the car’s sport suspension to deliver ideal balance between long-trip comfort and stunning lateral performance which the driver can choose at the push of a button. According to some aficionados, the new car is likely the only machine with so much power to also offer 1,660 liters of luggage space. The automaker claims a 0-60 feat in 4.6 seconds from the 4,400 lb rocket wagon.
The powerful production from the automaker also boasts off the traditional luxury and style associated with Audis. From the captivating Audi grille, striking lines and curves, to the pampering amenities, the car is unmistakably awesome.
The interior promises to pamper occupants in sporty luxury and is trimmed in leather, aluminum, suede and carbonfiber. Audi’s MMI system is also installed. Additionally, the rest of the cabin flaunts sport pedals and embossed seats which can be wrapped in either Silk Nappa or Valcona leather.
Visual enhancements entertained by the new model include fat wheels, air diffuser, oval exhausts pipes, flared wheel arches, bonnet and front wings made from aluminium. Inside, Audi’s engineers give the car a flat-bottomed steering wheel and carbonfiber panels.
But makes it more remarkable is the new-found performance. According to Reuters, the key performance figures of the new RS6 go like this: 0-62mph in 4.6 seconds, 0-124mph in 14.9 seconds, with top speed of course limited to 155mph. The German automaker said that the Quattro system has a 40:60 rear-drive bias, which should help to improve the handling and allow for some super-saloon drift action.
No price for the new RS6 is revealed yet. But experts in the industry said that the car is expected to cost from £70 000 when it becomes available next year. The car will be available for orders in Europe from November.
The sedan version of the RS6, on the other hand, will arrive in South Africa in the third quarter of next year.
