The fastest and most powerful Audi RS 6 and RS 7 models
London, 28 June, 2023, (Oilandgaspress) Audi of America announces the fastest and most powerful RS 6 and RS 7 models to date – the RS 6 Avant performance and RS 7 performance. The new models receive a number of dynamic improvements including an increase in power and torque, more precise self-locking differential, and more direct steering. Sound insulation inside the car has also been reduced allowing the song of the powerful 4.0-liter biturbo V8 to be heard more clearly, offering a more emotional driving experience.
Performance means more power and dynamics
The new RS 6 Avant performance and RS 7 performance models are built to be the most dynamic and engaging examples of the Audi Sport brand portfolio. Engineers fit larger turbochargers to the potent 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine and have increased boost pressure, good for an additional 30 horsepower and 37 lb-ft of torque. With 621 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque, both models are capable of achieving 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds (0.2 seconds quicker than previous models), and reaching a top track speed of 155 mph, or up to 174 mph with the Bronze edition.
Audi Sport engineers have updated the fully mechanical self-locking center differential to be more compact and lighter than the previous system. The RS 6 Avant performance and RS 7 performance models also benefit from updated software in the transmission control unit resulting in quicker shifting times. The result of the updates is noticeably improved driving dynamics and more precise cornering control with less understeer at handling limits. Additionally, engineers worked carefully to fine tune the engine control software that now makes for tighter shifts in “dynamic” Audi drive select mode, helping to generate even more emotion.
Bronze edition
To further underline the product’s exclusivity, customers can also opt for a new Bronze edition. Available in limited production for both models with just 125 units total (75 RS 6 Avant performance models and 50 RS 7 performance models). The Bronze edition is finished exclusively in Sebring Black crystal effect paint matched with the motorsport inspired matte neodymium gold 22” 5-Y-spoke wheels.
