Audi RS6 and Q7 RS
Audi is developing some more RS models, and the first out will be the RS6. Entering the market as both sedan and wagon it will break the 500 bhp mark for a family model from Audi . The engine is the same V10 as in the S6, but with a little help from turbochargers this monster will deliver 550 bhp. Also notice the extreme big brake discs, something this RS6 will need due to the rumours that the RS models will not longer have the speed limit set at 250 km/h. As usual the RS versions have twin oval exhaust pipes compared to the four pipes on the S models Another RS model could be the Q7, looking at this prototype photographed while parked in northern Sweden. Also this car has massive brake discs and callipers, and a front bumper with huge air intakes, close to that one on the V12 TDI concept car. But if you compare the brakes of the V12 and this prototype, the ones on these spy pictures are much bigger. Question is what Porsche, as a big shareholder of Volkswagen AG, will say about those plans with the Cayenne turbo already existing and the Panamera coming up.View Comment Rules
