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.

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.
