ABT RS7 Legacy Edition based on the Audi RS7

Two months ago ABT Sportsline presented the RS6 Legacy Edition, now the German tuner presented the RS7 Legacy Edition, based on the Audi RS7, which will be produced in 200 units.

The standard RS7 is powered by a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 engine with 630 hp (463 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. However, thanks to ABT’s turbocharger, new intercoolers, and new engine software, the RS7 Legacy Edition has 760 hp (559 kW) and 723 lb-ft (980 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to all wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in just 3.1 seconds, which is 0.5 seconds faster than the standard model.

The car is equipped with a modified suspension, new springs and anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles, a set of 22-inch gloss black forged wheels wrapped in 295/30 ZR22 Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport tires. The company says the RS7 now has superior handling on dry roads and extremely balanced performance on wet roads.

The tuner has prepared a special equipment kit giving the car a more aggressive look, which includes front bonnet insert, front lip, front skirt inserts with the enlarged air intake grilles, wheel arch vent, mirror cap attachments, side skirt attachments and inserts, rear skirt insert and the contrasting rear wing made of carbon fiber. The four round ends of the exhaust pipes with a diameter of 102 mm, which are integrated into the rear diffuser, contribute to a better sound.
