Audi ABT RS6 Legacy Edition
If you’re in the market for a blisteringly quick family car, then look no further than the Audi RS6. Since the model first hit the road in the early 2000s, it’s been the king of practical performance cars, priding itself on its ability to outpace several sports cars while carrying everything from people to parcels in comfort and style.
While that’s always been the case for RS6 cars fresh from the factory, the ABT RS6 Legacy Edition cranks up the intensity, combining cutting-edge technology with a staggering power output to transform the already rapid domestic wagon into a track-primed weapon. The result is supercar levels of power —we’re talking 559 kW and 980 Nm of torque from the tuned 4.0-litre V8 twinturbocharged Audi engine. That’s enough to crack 100km/h in just 3.1 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 305 km/h. Helping to squeeze all that performance from the RS6 is an ABT sports exhaust system and fully adjustable coilover suspension kit, as well as ceramic brakes for superior stopping power.
Beyond all that performance, our judges were attracted to the aggressive aero updates, such as a carbon fibre front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, and rear wing, which improve downforce and stability at high speeds. On the inside, the ABT touches continue with bespoke leather seats, carbon fibre trim, and an Alcantara steering wheel.
