Tuner Turns Audi RS6 Into SRT Hellcat Killer
One of 125, this 740-HP German hell wagon RS6 from ABT Sportline will make you tremble.
Imagine having a 600-horsepower V8 in a luxury family hauler. Sounds nice, right? How about if we upped the ante and gave you 140 more horses, just because? Now we’re really cooking with fire, and these limited edition Audi RS6 Avants are bad news for all competition.
ABT-Sportline has created the RS6-R, a 740-HP package that turns sleeping dragon that does 0-60 in less than 3.27 seconds. The factory version from Audi, which is 600 HP, does it less than 3.6 seconds.
The Kempton, Germany-based tuner took a production RS6 Avant and threw in custom carbon fiber everywhere: seat controls (optional), side view mirrors, steering wheel, front splitter, shift knob canards, exhaust tips and more. Even better, it comes with coilover suspension springs and roll bars for added protection.
Here’s the description on the company’s website:
“Once again, Audi have created the perfect synergy of the sports car and touring estate with the latest RS6. Each new RS generation is accompanied by new developments. The latest edition is the first to feature optional all-wheel steering. This reduces the turning circle and at speeds above 100 km/h, the rear wheels steer to aid stability. We are delighted to work with this excellent foundation and is transforming 125 Audi RS6 into the special limited edition ABT RS6-R.”
The package itself costs $75,925 (including 19% VAT). What’s more, if you want those sweet-looking dark smoke wheels, that’s going to set you back another $21,736. That’s a crazy amount for a set of wheels, but they make the car look fantastic.
With only 125 made, you better act fast or you’ll miss your chance at getting a pure German powerhouse.
