Video presentation: Audi RS6 sedan

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.

With all the attention the stunning Audi R8 has garnered since its launch, it's easy to forget all about the equally blistering Audi RS6 model.

Bestowed with 426 kW of power and 650 Nm of torque from its V10 twin-turbo engine, it is the most powerful engine in the current Audi line-up and makes the R8 look well under equipped in the engine department in comparison.




The engine is a finely tuned piece of machinery and can be regarded as a work of art in the automotive world and it seems the German car maker is keen to emphasise this point with their latest commercial featuring two dozen or so gymnasts that appear to be mimicking the inner workings of the V10 engine.

Those that would have preferred more noise and shots of the RS6 in motion will be disappointed but this commercial goes to shows how gimmicky car manufacturers have to be these days to promote their products.
