New Audi RS 6 Quattro Avant
Published Date: 25th Sep 2007
The most powerful production Audi of all time – the new Audi RS 6 Quattro Avant – is making 580PS-worth of presence felt to the crowds at the Frankfurt Motor Show this month.
The new bi-turbo, 10-cylinder super Avant – the successor to the revered original Audi RS 6 quattro of 2002 – will open for UK ordering from November 2007 with first deliveries in spring 2008, and later that year a saloon variant will also become available.
The basis for the latest RS flagship is the 435PS S6 quattro with its exceptionally compact, naturally aspirated 10-cylinder engine enhanced by FSI direct petrol injection. As a result, the RS 6 quattro with optimised 6-speed tiptronic automatic transmission can blast to 62mph from rest in 4.6 seconds and to 124mph in just 14.9 seconds, only relenting when the electronic governor cuts in at 155mph.
Inside the new RS 6 quattro Avant are upholstered RS sports seats, the drivers seat positioned perfectly in relation to the flat-bottomed RS sports steering wheel with multifunctional controls and transmission shift paddles. As with the Audi A6 Avant, this new model has up to 1,660 litres of luggage space.
