Audi RS6 Avant

Audi is still riding the crest of the R8's wave, steadily building its model portfolio and increasing sales (breaking the 100,000 mark in the UK for the first time in 2007).



Its RS models have always been a little special, from the first RS2 in 1994 to the most recent iteration of the RS4, which is widely regarded by enthusiasts as a modern classic.



With quattro GmbH - Audi's in-house version of BMW's M division and Mercedes-Benz's AMG - only making one RS car at a time, we've had to wait for RS4 to cease production before we got this new RS6. Was it worth it? Yes and no.

The latest RS6 is the most powerful production Audi ever, thanks to a V10 engine with two turbochargers that produces 572bhp and generates 479lb-ft of torque, all of which means that the 0-62 sprint is possible in 4.6secs. It also comes fitted with the latest generation of Audi's quattro four-wheel drive system, with a 40:60 front to rear torque split.



Oh, and it's an estate, at least initially (a saloon version arrives in the autumn), so there's plenty of room for all the family's luggage or the Irish wolfhound.

The RS4 and R8 have certainly raised expectations for any hot Audis coming out of Ingolstadt, expectations that the company's engineers haven't quite succeeded in meeting this time around. The RS6 is certainly powerful, fast and thrilling, but it's also flawed: the huge amount of power means that the car understeers rather too much when cornering; the V10 sounds pretty good, but it lacks a rawness that many expected; and every now and again you feel the size and weight of this two-ton car, despite all the power on offer.



That said, it you have £77,625 - plus a bit more for the optional ceramic brakes and the opportunity to bump the speed limiter up from the standard 155mph to 175mph - and like the idea of having the most powerful estate car you can buy, the RS6 will undoubtedly make you smile. Which is just as well, as you risk having your photo taken by Gatsos on a regular basis.

New Audi RS6 (2007)

A faster edition of the V10 powered S6 was rumoured for a while now, but today it’s confirmed: the new RS6 testing on the Nordschleife. Audi is testing a 530bhp strong RS6 and that’s 43bhp more than BMW’s M5 and 16bhp more than the Mercedes E63, they probably want to join the succes of the competitors.

Under that hood, the direct-injection bi-turbo V10 features heavily revised intake and exhaust systems to deal with the lower compression ratio and higher charge pressures. While the power output climbs a modest 100bhp over the S6. Expect at least 500lb ft of twist in any of its six gears, resulting in a 4.5 second sprint to 62ph and a too bad 155mph limited top speed. Unlimited, the RS6 would easily hit 200mph.

The new RS6 will be presented on the Frankfurt Motorshow, next September. With a price of 96000 euro he’s in the same price class as the E63 and M5.

Audi RS6 History

The AUDI RS6 was presented to in the middle of 2002 on basis of the AUDI A6 4B. Starting from April 2004 there was only the AUDI RS6 plus, whose production was limited on 999 vehicles.

The most salient differences to the normal AUDI A6 4B are:

* broader fenders
* changed optics front and tail bumper
* oval exhaust final pipes (double-flow)
* matt aluminum outside mirror polished
* standard 18-Zoll-Felgen (optional 19-Zoll)

The limited RS6 plus was available only as Avant and had in relation to the normal variant in series:

* also exhaust final ears black-anodized a sport exhaust system
* flat black external optics
(only the outside mirrors are black in aluminum optics, all other chrome parts)
* punched brake disks
* 19 inc whells

When the new model of the RS6 is to be presented, is so far not yet exactly well-known. Unclear is likewise exact motorizing. A similar V10 as that of the current S6 will serve as engine. By which technology (turbo-loading, high speed concept) an achievement is to be obtained by over 520 HP, is not well-known yet.
