The RS6 Avant announced at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show is an ultra high performance model based on the A6 Avant. It was developed by quattro, a child company of Audi AG. Most notable is of course the ultra high-spec power plant. The 5.2L V10 engine is fitted with a twin turbo, to produce a supercar-like output of 572 HP/479.5 lb-ft. Feeding this power through the 6 speed Tiptronic S and quattro system, it accelerates the 2160 kg body from a standstill to 62 mph in just 4.6 seconds. Though a restrictor limits its top speed to 155 mph, it would most likely exceed 186 mph easily if unrestricted.
While given this amazing level of performance, it loses nothing from its character as a station wagon. The cargo room capacity is 565 l normally, and expands to 1660 l when the rear seats are folded. Differences in appearance from the A6 Avant are kept to a minimum. On the exterior, there are special emblems in the front and rear of the body, special rims and an exhaust tip. The interior's front seats are changed to a sports type and the decoration panel utilizes carbon parts. Once you're rolling in the world's fastest station wagon, the beast will blow away your average sports car on the road. It's virtually impossible to utilize 100% of this car's potential on public roads. The RS 6 Avant is much more than you can possibly ask for, combining sports car driving performance with the utility of a station wagon.
