Audi RS6 Avant: the lowdown
Audi has begun testing a prototype of the world's fastest estate: the forthcoming RS6 Avant. Crammed into that nose is a Lamborghini V10. Don't go shrugging your shoulders – it isn't the 429bhp, 'lower-powered' unit from the S6, but a twin-turbo version that will summon an extra 100 horses. That'll be enough to make the RS6 demolish 0-62mph in around 4.5sec – as quick as a BMW M6. Click 'next' for more.
RS chassis mods...
That hardly flush bonnet tells a story: this mule runs the Audi-Lamborghini 5.2-litre V10. Breathed on by twin turbochargers and with revised internals and breathing, the V10 will kick out in excess of 520bhp. Naturally, the RS6 uses quattro four-wheel drive to lay that kind of power down, with torque biased 40:60 to the rear to enhance the driving experience. Beefed up brakes lurk behind those bigger alloys, while the suspension has adaptive damping to offer the optimum mix of comfort and dynamism.
