New Audi RS7 Sportback Revealed


Audi introduced its M6 Gran Coupe fighter at the Detroit Auto Show. The RS7 is powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-Liter TFSI V8 that produces 560hp and 700 Nm of torque! That allows it to hit 100 Km/h (62 mph) in just 3.9 seconds with a top speed of 305 km/h once the limiter is removed. Power is sent to all wheels through an 8-speed tiptronic transmission with three driving modes: D (drive), S (sport) and M (manual).


This new car is marked by the introduction of the Cylinder On Demand (COD) system that allows the car to deactivate half of the cylinders ( no. 2,3,5 and 8) by closing their valves in order to have a much better fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions. Another innovation is the adaptive suspension which adjusts the height of the car to the driving style, the selected mode and the condition of the road's surface.


When it comes to styling, the RS7 has all what it takes to be a candy for the eyes. The aggressive body kit is available is two versions: matte aluminum and carbon. More pictures of the beast in the gallery below and more pictures and videos after the jump.
