Audi Introduces RS6 Avant GT, A Limited Edition Super Wagon
Audi has unveiled something special for enthusiasts, the RS6 Avant GT, a limited edition super wagon set to impress those who enjoy vehicles like the Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Building upon the exceptional performance of the RS6 Avant Performance, this model promises even more thrills on the road.
Under the hood, the Avant GT retains the formidable twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine found in its predecessor, generating an impressive 621 horsepower and 625 pound-feet of torque. However, Audi engineers have fine-tuned this powerhouse, shaving off precious milliseconds from its acceleration time. With a 0-60 mph time of just 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 190 mph, the RS6 Avant GT delivers exhilarating performance that few can match.
But it’s not just about straight-line speed; the RS6 GT boasts enhanced handling capabilities thanks to several upgrades. A lowered ride height, stiffer stabilizer bars, and electronically adjustable dampers ensure precise control and agility on the road. Furthermore, the addition of stickier tires provides optimal grip, allowing drivers to push the limits with confidence.
Drawing inspiration from Audi’s racing heritage, the RS6 Avant GT sports a striking exterior design reminiscent of the iconic Audi 90 Quattro IMSA GTO race car. With its distinctive red, white, and black livery and 22-inch wheels, this limited edition model commands attention wherever it goes. Inside, the cabin exudes luxury and sportiness, featuring black leather and Alcantara upholstery with red quilted stitching, along with new sport bucket seats adorned with carbon backing.
As if its performance and aesthetics weren’t enough to turn heads, the RS6 Avant GT’s exclusivity sets it apart from the crowd. With only 660 units slated for production worldwide, each meticulously hand-built with premium materials, owning one is a rare privilege. In the US market, only 85 lucky individuals will have the opportunity to own this coveted super wagon, making it a highly sought-after collector’s item.
While pricing details for the US market are yet to be confirmed, one thing is certain – demand for the Audi RS6 Avant GT will be sky-high. Enthusiasts eager to experience the pinnacle of automotive engineering should act fast to secure their spot in line for this exceptional machine.
