Let’s talk about one of the most powerful family cars on the market, a car that is ready to compete against the BMW M5 and the Mercedes AMG E 63. A car to make long trips with the family while enjoying a sporty driving, a car for day to day and very versatile. We are talking about the
Audi RS6
one of the benchmarks among sports family cars.
Sports exhausts are to be enjoyed, they sound like pure power. The fourth generation of this model of the Audi brand is given the internal name of C8. Three of the four different generations have used twin-turbo V8 engines, unlike the second generation which resorted to a V10 created by Lamborghini. This engine was based on the 5.2-liter V10 of the Lamborghini Gallardo although in the case of the second generation RS6 it was supercharged with two turbochargers.
The combined look of a sports car and a family car of the RS6
The design of this Audi RS6 is impeccable, with a front that could be a competition car and huge air intakes that accompany the well-known Audi singleframe.
On the one hand of this sports car, the most striking are the wheels. As standard, use a 21-inch wheel, although you can add 22-inch wheels as an option. That if with an extra of more than 3,000 euros. It’s the huge 22-inch wheels that partially hide the size of the suit. It is 4.99 meters long and 1.95 meters wide. They are so large that, combined with a wheelbase of almost 3 meters, they give it the image of a show car show.
The mirror housings are standard aluminum. A complete legacy of the Audi RS legend. Now, it seems that blacks are so fashionable lately that few people keep them in aluminum finishes. Although you can add the black color, which will mean 140 euros more on the car bill. The carbon fiber is a little more expensive, amounting to 1,065 euros.
The rear is huge, especially thanks to the carbon exterior kit. A design as a spectacular finish for all eyes. Of course, if you decide to install it you have to be very careful with the curbs because it is very exposed to chafing and blows.
A stylish interior
Inside, the Audi RS6 is very similar to the RS7 Sportback. Both are almost identical in design, materials and finishes. Not surprisingly, it shares a large number of components, such as steering wheels, screens, add-ons and other controls. As it can not be otherwise, it has state-of-the-art connectivity. What you see is that of screens does not fall short. The dashboard is 12.3 inches, the center of the dashboard is 10.1 inches, and the transmission side is 8.6 inches.
Like the RS7, the new RS6 also has an RS mode button on the steering wheel. By pressing it, we can access the two memories that we previously configured to our liking. RS1 and RS2. A quick and convenient way to change vehicle settings.
The space on board is what you would expect in a car of this size. The front seats lift up very well and are very comfortable. There are two very comfortable exterior seats in the second row and the middle one is not bad, if we count that with the panoramic roof has more space.
What hides under the hood the Audi RS6
Under its long front hood is a 4-liter V8 twin turbocharger that delivers a maximum power of 600 horses between 6,000 and 6,250 revolutions per minute. But the most brutal is its continuous torque of 800 Nm between 2,050 and 4,500 revolutions per minute. It still has a cylinder disconnection system.
It pushes like a jackhammer, delivering delivery that increases as revs increase. Plus, it doesn’t sound bad at all. Counting on the amount of particulate filters that make them put builders, not bad. The actual average consumption at a fast speed is between 38 and 40 l/100 km. No one says you can have everything in this life. It has an ecological label from the DGT for its 48V microhybrid system, so we can not ask for more either.
The engine is linked to the famous ZF automatic transmission with an 8-speed torque converter. Smooth and comfortable in ‘D’ mode, sporty like few sports in manual mode. Surprisingly, it does both very well.
Having a strong braking system is important for a car that can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds. The front ceramic disc measures 440 mm and is associated with 10-piston brake calipers. So you should think about spending the 11,205 euros they cost.
Although, it is really worth configuring the RS6 with the RS plus dynamic package. The extra cost amounts to 16,480 euros, but in addition to the ceramic brake discs includes: dynamic steering, directional rear axle, sports rear differential and a maximum speed limited to 305 km / h. So if you are considering buying a car like the Audi RS6 is something you can not miss.
