Audi Quattro Concept First Drive

It’s a celebration of 30 years of Audi Quattro, but it is much more. It is also much more, a nod to the future of Audi.

If the concept is exactly audi Quattro concept. However, Audi is very positive about their chances necessary for the preparation of decisions that could only be of 1300 kg – at least a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. And not alone – Audi really believe that the lighter cars are the future.

If Quattro Concept debut at the Paris Motor Show in September made, there was a show car that is not from their own resources the back of a carrier can to support the demonstration run, and vice versa, all with a speed of only two digits. But now has – and took a lot of work, as you can imagine – from pony 10 km / h in an auto show concept that probably drove at speeds up to 100 MPH.

The quattro concept is supposedly a RS5 below. Audi, but in view of 150 mm wheelbase, and the aluminum body built in part (especially the bits of buildings), and part of carbon (most of the bits of the opening.)

Of course, you know, and I is the light weight of the gift that keeps. The quattro concept perhaps less power than the RS5 which led to the loss of the V8 engine of 4.2 liters and get instead a 2.5-liter five-pot (the Quattro) TT RS is lighter and therefore faster.

’5 ‘S fuse was lit up to 402bhp, enough for the computer takes into account the Audi Quattro can reach 62 mph from rest carried out in 3.9sec (quite plausible), is a manual six-speed. The rest of the transfer was taken from a RS5 – no sport has a limited slip differential or rear torque vector for the moment, but if the production of green light is given, according to them.
