Official Audi RS6 Avant 'performance' edition - 605ps

[W8PMC]

Got this last night from Audi & it shows the specific differences between the regular C7 RS6 & the 'Performance' Edition. Looks as though the Sports Exhaust is standard.


AU1017-15

The stunning, powerful new RS 6 Avant performance and RS 7 Sportback performance take the Audi Sport range to even greater heights.

Based on the current RS 6 and RS 7, the new performance models’ 4.0 TFSI V8 bi-turbo engine has an extra 45PS – bringing the output to a breathtaking 605PS. Combine this with 700Nm of torque (750Nm with overboost) and the new RS performance models can accelerate from 0-62mph in a supercar-rivalling 3.7 seconds, 0.2 seconds faster than their counterparts.

It’s not just the performance that’s been enhanced: 21-inch titanium alloys, a sports exhaust and titanium exterior styling all come as standard.
Prices for the RS 6 Avant performance and RS 7 Sportback performance start at £86,000 and £91,600 on the road (OTR) respectively. The new models will open for ordering in November, with the first UK deliveries expected in February 2016. Further information including full technical details will be confirmed prior to open for ordering.

Aye, that's been up on the news section on Audi UK for a while.

the car is on the German configurator

Can you dump the Ti trim and the seats?

[smudge]

Yeah that makes sense now! Estate car with 4 seats doesn't seem right.

Would have been better if I had been! Anyway looking at the German configurator it looks like a NCO to change from 2 to standard if google translate is working.

Well, if the German config is anything to go by, the seats can be changed at no cost to the standard ones. But I can't see Black optics or the Carbon Pack as an option. I'm only one coffee in at present, so I may have missed it.......

Two minds and all that

I had a go on the German configurator and you can change the trim and wheels

Yeah, I just spotted that also..... Coffee V2.0 worked.

Trim inc seats? Alcantara with blue stitching is pretty horrid.

What Audi UK will offer is a different matter of course.

Yeah, on the German one you could change seats, trim and wheels. But like you say, Audi UK might have different ideas on that!
Either way, hopefully we will find out next week as I'm not yet locked into a build yet:)

Extra fluffy Alcantara with green stitching and an orange headliner in orange.

Defiantly!
TBH if I can get the price right and make it look like my current spec I'll be happy. And that's without alcantara or the alloys or the titanium trim! But that's just me. Sepang and black all the way.
