Audi
RS 4 Now Also in Avant and Cabriolet Versions |
|
Feb 22, 2006 |
From this summer, Audi will for the first
time be offering additional versions of
the RS 4. Following the successful market
launch of the saloon at the end of last
year, the Avant and Cabriolet versions
will be appearing at dealers from the
summer. This will round off the RS 4
family. This highly emotionally charged,
high-performance product from quattro GmbH
unites the characteristics of a sports car
with supreme everyday qualities. This is
as true of the saloon version as it is of
the Avant and the four-seater Cabriolet.
The RS 4 has numerous new features to
distinguish it. Most notably, there is the
V8 engine with an output of 420 bhp. This
is the first time that a manufacturer has
combined petrol direct injection with a
high-revving concept. Engine speeds of up
to 8,250 rpm are possible. Another
highlight is the suspension with the
latest generation of quattro permanent
four-wheel drive and Dynamic Ride Control.
The Cabriolet and Avant have likewise been
subjected to a rigorous regime of weight
reduction measures to make sure that they
are equally sporty. Even though the
engineers have systematically applied
lightweight construction principles, all
RS 4 versions feature luxurious equipment
that singles out the Audi RS 4 as a
high-performance vehicle suitable for
everyday driving.
