ABT RS3-R based on the Audi RS3

The Audi RS3 is a top-of-the-line car that, after its introduction last year, demonstrated its capabilities on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. However, the German company ABT Sportsline believes that the car can and must be better, so it presented a limited edition ABT RS3-R.

The ABT RS3-R is equipped with a special equipment kit that brings a lot of carbon parts with a high-gloss finish, sports stabilizer bars, ABT intercooler, adjustable suspension and ABT suspension springs that enable a lowering range of 20-40 mm at the front and rear axle. There’s also a set of 20-inch ABT High Performance HR20 alloy wheels wrapped in 245/30 R20 Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport R tires.

The limited edition ABT RS3-R is powered by a 2.5-liter 5-cylinder turbo gasoline engine with 500 hp (368 kW) and 443 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. That’s a significant increase considering the RS3 has 400 hp (294 kW) and 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.3 seconds with a top speed of 186 mph (300 km/h). Drivers will be able to choose between ECO, SPORT or RACE mode.

Audi RS6 Avant upgraded by ABT

After the recently introduced Audi A6 Avant E-Tron Concept, now comes the upgraded RS6 Avant. It is another project of the German tuner ABT that specializes in Audi cars.

The car is painted in an exclusive Tactical green color. It is equipped with an aerodynamic carbon body kit to make the car look even more attractive and muscular, with an adjustable suspension that allows the car to be 25 mm (front) or 30 mm (back) closer to the ground, the standard two-pipe exhaust system has been replaced by four 102 mm stainless steel pipes, and there’s a set of black rims.

The Audi RS6 Avant is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 700 hp (515 kW) and 649 lb-ft (880 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.1 seconds with a top speed of 200 mph (322 km / h). If this is not enough, ABT offers an increase in power to 740 hp (544 kW) and 679 lb-ft (920 Nm) of torque.

We should enjoy the V8 engine as much as possible, as Audi is seriously considering developing a fully electric RS6. The A6 Avant E-Tron should arrive by 2030 and Audi claims it will include high-performance versions as well.
