The V-8 wagon and liftback of the Audi RS7 2023 will receive a significant boost in power as well as some driving modifications thanks to the new "Performance" grades. The RS7 Performance will each produce 621 horsepower, a 30-hp increase over the ordinary models, the firm said on Monday.
Furthermore, torque increases from 590 lb-ft to 627 lb-ft, however it's difficult to say that the car required additional torque. Although the Audi is already incredibly fast, bragging rights must be upheld. Audi had previously stated a (conservative) 0-62 time of 3.6 seconds for both vehicles, however the performance variant completes the task in 3.4 seconds. It is anticipated that it would move more quickly than its stated speeds.
Straight-line speed is just one of the modifications. A stronger in-cabin exhaust noise and a 17-pound reduction in curb weight are both results of less sound deadening. The "self-locking" center differential on the performance model is also updated, according to Audi, and it now offers "noticeably more precise cornering." In normal driving, the front-to-rear torque split remains at 40:60, but if slip is detected, the power distribution of the car can increase to up to 85% to the rear wheels.
The sole transmission available is an eight-speed automatic. All-wheel steering, a rear Quattro sport differential, and a faster peak speed of 180 mph are included in the RS Dynamic package, which is included as standard equipment. With the RS Dynamic Plus package, which is optional, you can accelerate to 189 mph and stop at 0 mph using carbon-ceramic brakes.
The performance model's distinctive 21-inch wheels with 285/30 Continental SportContact 7 tires come standard, but unique lightweight 22-inch wheels are also available. For Performance versions, two additional hues—Ascari Blue and matte Dew Silver—as well as matte gray RS mirrors, side skirts, spoilers, roof rails, and trim that suggests they mean business are available. The emblems, roof rails, and door trim are all available in black. Blue accents are added inside.
