Video presentation: Audi RS6 sedan

August 26th 2008 04:30
Audi RS6 sedan


The 2009 Audi RS6 sedan is one of this year's most highly-anticipated cars and it's not hard to see why - how often would you find a twin-turbo'd V10 engine lurking underneath the bonnet of a sedan? Not very. And certainly not one that makes a staggering 426 kW and 650 Nm of power and torque respectively.

The engine of the new Audi RS6 is a gem of an engine. The 4,991 cc V10 bundles a number of Audi's race-winning technologies, namely, FSI direct fuel injection, dry-sump lubrication and twin turbochargers wound up to 1.6 bar of boost pressure.

In order to put all that power down on the ground, the flagship RS6 sits on a widened track compared to its donor car - the A6 - necessitating the need for the flared wheel arches on the bodywork. Other than that, it's a subtle affair but with just the right amount of styling differentiation to let you know that this is no regular Audi.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words so here's the latest video presentation of the Audi RS6 sedan. Should you wish to read more about the stonking RS6, you can do so here.
