The new Audi RS6 Avant by AVUS Performance may not look as aggressive as other tuning proposals, but it sure packs a mighty punch under the bonnet. Not that the standard RS6 with its 580HP and 650Nm ( 479.35 lb/ft) V10 actually needs more power, but the Berlin-based tuner believes that there's space for improvement. That translates to a new high performance exhaust system with a diameter of 70mm (2.7''), racing catalysts and a new ECU software resulting to an output of 700HP and 800Nm or 589.97 lb/ft of torque.
With these upgrades the Audi RS6 White Power sprints from zero to 100km/h (62mph) in a blistering 3,9 seconds, to 200km/h (124mph) in 12.1 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 340km/h or 211.27mph. The 'standard' RS6 Avant accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 4.6 seconds and reaches an electronically limited maximum speed of 250km/h or 155mph.
Additional modifications include a new set of springs that lower the car by 40mm or 1.6'', massive 22-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels and carbon fiber front lip spoiler and rear diffuser.
