The new Audi RS 6 Avant offers superior performance and groundbreaking efficiency, providing practicality for everyday use and leisure.

The new Audi RS 6 Avant boasts a twin-turbo V8 engine that delivers 560 hp and a constant 700 Nm of torque, accelerating from zero to 100 km/h in a staggering 3.9 seconds. Lighter and more efficient than the previous models, Audi has created a sporty, top-of-the-line vehicle that supersedes its predecessors in performance in every parameter possible.

Sprinting from zero to 100km/h in 5.4 seconds, the new Audi SQ5 is the first SUV in the S family. Best in its category, the Audi SQ5 is powered by a revved-up, three-liter V6 engine with a displacement of 2,955 cc. The 3.0 TFSI engine produces 260 kW (354 hp) between 6,000 and 6,500 rpm, and delivers 470 Nm of torque to the crankshaft between 4,000 and 4,500 rpm. The Audi SQ5’s electromechanical steering also provides a seamless drive, adding to its impressive handling capabilities. Styled to perfection, the Audi SQ5 features the classic S car touches in design and materials that distinguishes it as the high performance sports car.

Continuing the success of its predecessors, the sporty, yet sleek, Audi S3 Sportback offers powerful performance with exemplary efficiency. Its 2.0 TFSI engine averages just 6.9 liters per 100 kilometer. The Audi S3 Sportback’s high-performance four-cylinder engine responds immediately to the driver’s wishes and boasts a sonorous sound. At 1,445 kilograms, 70 kilograms less than the previous model, the Audi S3 Sportback’s lightweight construction is a key factor for its dynamic performance.
