- 4.0 TFSI twin-turbo V8 develops 412kW/700Nm
- Priced from $238,500*
The Audi RS 7 Sportback has arrived in Australia. This unique performance vehicle blends the A7’s distinctive design
with the high performance of Audi’s 4.0 TFSI twin-turbo V8.
“The very first RS 7 Sportback is a truly unique performance vehicle,” said Andrew Doyle, Managing Director of
Audi Australia Pty Ltd.
“It combines performance and stunning design seamlessly, and complements these features with practicality thanks to
its capacious storage area. It is also the greatest value proposition of any of its rivals. Discerning performance car
buyers have already shown great interest, and we expect that this attention will heighten as people have the opportunity
to experience this exceptional new model,” said Mr Doyle.
The RS 7 Sportback is the ideal complement to another Audi – the mighty RS 6 Avant. Between them, the stylish RS 7 is
ideal for those more design-oriented customers, while the Avant offers the added virtues of a load-lugger. Both offer
blistering performance.
Producing 412kW and 700Nm, the mighty 4.0 TFSI twin-turbo V8 engine features an innovative design, with the exhaust and
turbochargers sitting inside the ‘vee’, and intakes plumbed to the outside of the engine. This is in contrast to
conventional design.
The greater thermal efficiency of this lay out aids better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Fuel consumption is
rated at 9.8 litres per 100km.
Performance is in the realm of super cars, with astonishing acceleration that sees the RS 7 Sportback reach 100 km/h
from rest in just 3.9 seconds. A top speed of up to 305 km/h is possible with the Dynamic Package Plus.
As expected of an Audi RS model, the RS 7 Sportback comes equipped with a very high level of standard equipment,
including the following:
