Now, with the help of a performance upgrade from <strong>ABT Sportsline<\/strong>, you can further enhance the already enormous power of the Avant. But first things first: Since the \u201cBig Bang\u201d in 2002, when the first Audi RS&nbsp;6 saw the light of day, a great deal has happened, particularly in the field of driving dynamics. So, the latest edition with mild hybrid system is not only driven by a 4.0-litre V8 TFSI boasting 600 hp (441 kW) and 800 Nm, but it can also perfectly conceal its weight. The abundance of high-tech in the chassis area makes it possible: such as the mechanical centre differential, or the optional rear axle sports differential together with all-wheel steering. CEO Hans-J\u00fcrgen Abt was convinced from the outset: \u201cThis provides an exemplary platform with all of the prerequisites for an <strong>ABT Power Performance Upgrade<\/strong>\u201d.*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the world\u2019s largest tuner of Audi and VW vehicles developed a bespoke software system and utilised its high-tech control unit <strong>ABT Engine Control<\/strong> (AEC). The new, spectacular benchmark specification figures are 700 hp (515 kW) and 880 Nm, which, of course, are also reflected in the acceleration: Compared to the standard version, the sprint time from 0 to 100 km\/h is reduced from 3.6 to 3.3 seconds. The <strong>ABT Performance Upgrade<\/strong> comes with T\u00dcV certification, comprehensive guarantees and a whole host of engine protection measures to provide you with remorse-free driving pleasure. Since the <strong>ABT Sportsline<\/strong> range is constantly expanding, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abt-sportsline.com\/tuning\/configurator\/\"><strong>ABT&nbsp;Configurator<\/strong><\/a> keeps you right up-to-date regarding new products for the RS 6. Of particular interest are the new alloy wheels currently under development which will soon be available in a range of models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*The engine performance data is in accordance with the stipulations of EWG\/80\/1269. The process and dynamometer manufacturer have been certified and authorised by the vehicle manufacturer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.eurotuningnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/ABT_Audi_RS6_GR_22_glossyBlack-lo-res.jpg 1909w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fourth generation of the Audi RS 6 recently came onto the market.
