The new Audi RS 6 Avant stands for pioneering performance. It is lighter and more efficient than the predecessor version and its performance has improved once more. The RS 6 Avant accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in just 3.9 seconds. If the customer wishes, its top speed can be 305 km/h (189.52 mph). Its 4.0 TFSI develops 412 kW (560 hp) while averaging just 9.8 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers (24.00 US mpg). The new Audi RS 6 Avant is a high-performance sports car for everyday use and leisure. Its character and thoroughly sporty design is the work of quattro GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of AUDI AG.

The abbreviation “RS” represents many things: the most powerful engine within a model line, quattro permanent all-wheel drive, extremely dynamic performance, an understated look and comprehensive everyday practicality.

Yesterday the Audi UK YouTube video dubbed “The Duel” and showing an ultimate paintball battle between two Audi RS 4s went more than its fair share of viral.

Ever wonder what Audi does at their R&D facility (a.k.a. bunker)?
