Audi RS7 Sportback Performance Quattro review

How fast is the Audi RS7 Sportback Performance

RS7 Sportback – Sometimes I really enjoy my job. That was the case last week when I drove the Audi RS7 Sportback Performance.

The RS7 Sportback showcases just how beautiful a car can be. When it was parked in my yard out the front there were so many people walking past that stopped to admire it. When driving it people followed it as we drove past.

There are many words to describe it – stunning, stylish, beautiful, but my favourite is simply elegant.

Not only is it beautiful in design, but it is also a performance powerhouse.

With a 4.0-litre V8 biturbo TFSI engine under the bonnet it delivers some 463 kW of power and maximum torque of 850 Nm. This drives all four wheels through the brilliant quattro system and an eight speed tiptronic transmission.

Top speed is a claimed 280 km/h, and it will go from 0-100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. We didn’t try to replicate those as it was the long weekend and double demerits applied.

The true brilliance lies in the fact that performance lays hidden behind a car that is just as happy pottering around town at 60 km/h.

The Audi RS7 Sportback is a rare car indeed. There are few cars that you could compare it too. In a world that for some reason is forsaking the exhilaration of a V8 burble for EV silence, Ill take the RS7 every day of the week please.
