What Is The Audi RS6 Avant GT?
The holy grail of fast wagons has arrived! Equipped with carbon fibre body panels and aero tweaks, the Audi RS6 Avant GT will be limited to just 660 exampled, with 60 bound for the UK market.
This special edition model has redeveloped the Audi RS6 performance to be the ultimate fast estate!
Engine
Powered by a 4.0-litre V8 Twin turbo engine, the Audi RS6 Avant GT will produce 621hp, with the top speed limited to 190mph.
Audi would not confirm nor deny if this was the last V8 engine to be produced by Audi Sport, instead, proudly showcased the development of carbon fibre panels and the use of new materials.
The twin-turbo 8-cylinder engine will churn out an impressive 850 Nm of torque.
Further adding that the Audi RS6 Avant GT was a “showcase of new materials” as opposed to a “final vision”. Leaving users to speculate that the infamous V8 isn’t leaving just yet!
Styling
Designed to look like the GTO concept, the Audi RS6 Avant GT is available in two bespoke liveries.
The first livery is white, grey and red; finished off with a stunning set of white 22” alloy wheels.
The second livery is available in a grey and black finish
The interior is kitted out with suede Dinamica upholstery to reduce driver glare and the seats are finished with red and bronze stitching.
A plaque denoting the model number is situated on the centre console.
Several tweaks to the aero components have resulted in improved performance. Audi has introduced a double-wing design, with a more aggressive front splitter situated just below. Moving to the rear, it is equipped with a more functional rear diffuser.
Audi has also removed the roof rails to reduce drag and increase downforce.
The 22” alloy wheels are extremely lightweight and have “GT” lettering inscribed into them, as present in various parts of the car, such as the door lighting and Sport Seats
Performance
The introduction of lighter materials and improved aero has reduced the 0-62mph time to just 3.3 seconds! Additionally, 0-125mph now takes 11.5 seconds, an impressive 1.5 seconds quicker than the current Audi RS6 Avant Performance.
The rear differential and suspension have been adjusted to be more agile while in ‘Dynamic’ mode. The suspension is now firmer and sits 10mm lower than the standard RS6.
