Re: New RS6 (Spy pics & info).

Interesting:
  • P R N D S ...
  • No steering wheel paddle shifters ...
  • RPM: approx. 8,100rpm max, red field starts already at 6,700rpm ...
So, V8 or V10 turbo engine & auto-gearbox? It seems so ...

Re: New RS6 (Spy pics & info).

redline says it all, its going to be a turbo version, probably around 580hp.

Sad if its only a regular automatic

Re: New RS6 (Spy pics & info).

Karma certainly deserved and given! And that's my fellow Croat, btw.

So, pretty much we see here, only numbers lack, but that'll come soon i guess. And it seems pretty sure that it's a turbo version. Nice! But i only don't get that tranny... I don't want to believe that it's the regular automatic, with all their R Tronics and stuff i'm expecting something more advanced and better than just a regular automatic.

We'll see though...

Could be R-tronic ... But ... Is Audi able to pair such gearbox with the torque monster 5.2L V10 engine? The absence of the paddle shifters indicates a regular Tiptronic.

Also - the engine: V10 (bi)turbo, or V8 (bi)turbo? Is Audi going back to the RS models with turbo engines - while S models, and R-family (R8, possible R4) will stick to NA engines?

No idea, honestly. Btw, a question: the R Tronic, how much torque it can handle? Anyone with the data?

Who knows, you might be right.

Re: New RS6 (Spy pics & info).

Thanks for posting those pictures!

Tells a lot, I'm amazed how someone would be able to take these photos, unless the tester took them. Not so happy about the auto, thought the RS4 had changed RS models, but it would seem that's not true!

Can't wait to heard what this engine's got!

Re: New RS6 (Spy pics & info).

The RS6 will have a "smaller" 5.0 V10 engine with a couple Turbos bolted to it and not a Twin-turbocharged variant of the S6 5.2 V10.
