2017 Audi RS6 And Performance Models – Video

 

Audi is upping the potency of its already extreme RS 6 Avant and RS 7 by introducing new Performance models that boast increased engine output and numerous RS-spec equipment as standard. The engine remains Audi’s ubiquitous turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8, whose output here has been bumped up to 605 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque, up from 560 hp and 516 lb-ft in the stock RS 6 and RS 7.

With the new output, the cars will accelerate from 0-62 mph in just 3.7 seconds, down from 3.9 seconds for the stock RS 6 and RS 7, and from 0-124 mph in 12.1 seconds, down from 13.5 seconds for the stock models. Top speed is governed to 155 mph but with an available Dynamic Package this figure is lifted to 189.5 mph.
