Audi RS 5 Coupé prepared by ABT – A 510 hp and 680 Nm road missile

Barely marketed, the new Audi RS 5 Coupé is already offered with a tonic preparation by the German specialist ABT Sportsline: a power of 510 hp and a torque of 680 Nm.

While the new Audi S4 B9 prepared by ABT Sportsline already reaches 425 hp (313 kW), very close to the standard Audi RS 5 with its 450 hp (331 kW), the Bavarian tuner, specializing in the preparations of models of brands of the Volkswagen Group, repeats with the Audi RS 5 Coupé which becomes a true road missile.

Hans-Jürgen Abt went all out for this vehicle: “Thanks to our ABT Power ECU, the V6 biturbo engine can develop 510 hp (375 kW). The maximum torque of 680 Nm is like kicking your back. »

In its basic version, the current Audi RS 5 has the same power of 450 hp as its predecessor with a V8 engine. The new biturbo V6 engine, developed jointly with Porsche (present on the new Porsche Panamera), is clearly superior in terms of torque: 600 Nm against 430 Nm on the old version. In addition to the 60 hp increase, ABT has also increased the torque by 80 Nm. The price of this preparation is 4760.51 euros including the installation of the engine ECU in parallel with the original one.

Thanks to the turbos, the possibilities of preparation are greater. ABT Sportsline is not going to stop there. The tuner is in the process of finalizing an even more radical version while maintaining a very high level of reliability of which he has the secret and the experience. A more aggressive body kit will also be unveiled soon.

As with the other models prepared by ABT, 20-inch rims are available in many shades of black, ranging from mystic black, magic black, gloss black to matte black. A diamond-turned finish is also used on the contrast surfaces. Currently available are the DR, FR and GR models, as well as the exclusively forged ER-F rim. All rims can also be purchased from ABT Sportsline as complete wheel sets, with Dunlop or Continental UHP tyres.
