As expected, the model is powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine that produces 560 HP (412 kW) and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. It is connected to an eight-speed tiptronic transmission and a quattro all-wheel drive system with a torque vectoring differential. This enables the wagon to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and hit a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph), 280 km/h (174 mph) with the optional Dynamic package and 305 km/h (190 mph) with the optional Dynamic plus package.
To maximize fuel efficiency, the engine features start/stop technology and a cylinder-on-demand system which deactivates four-cylinders when they aren't needed. This enables the model to average 9.8 L/100km (24 mpg US) which is roughly 40 percent better than its predecessor.

Re: 2014 Audi RS6 Avant
This car will match the S8's 3.5 second 0-60 time if not exceed it, and 3.9 seconds 0-60 is definitely conservative.
I want a car so violent that the mere thought of full throttle would cause a heart attack. That actually going wide open throttle in would result in nothing less than instant death!

Re: 2014 Audi RS6 Avant
it is not 0-60 mph (that would be 96 km/h)..it is 0-100 km/h (or 62 mph) in 3.9 s

Happy holidays! Oh and I'm still waiting for the sexy S5 to get this motor and not cost 6 figures......
Is that turbo v8 a major factor in pricing over 6 figures?

Re: 2014 Audi RS6 Avant
This engine is not altogether inexpensive to produce but truthfully it is Audi's presumptuous RS pricing in the US that will make this car expensive not the engine spec alone. Originally Posted by JBsZ06

The current 420 hp S6 which is not utterly divergent in kerb weight is already capable of 3.7 seconds 0-60 hence my estimation that these numbers are conservative. Originally Posted by asrapid1
