Audi RS5: Pure enthusiasm.

Audi RS models are the ultimate expression of sportiness in the Audi range. The Audi RS5 is the latest product from a tradition that has been underway for over fifteen years with the advent of the RS2 Avant and is known for excellent dynamic characteristics in the segment medium size.

The engines in the Audi RS5

In the tuned Audi RS5 tuning exhaust systems double run admisióny allow the engine to "breathe fully." Four camshaft adjustment provide the right mix variable at any time. The 4.2 FSI pulls strongly from low engine speeds and is situated in optimum condition when the counter reaches the top, almost like a racing engine. This engine develops 450 hp at 8,250 rpm and transmits its maximum torque of 430 Nm between 4,000 and 6,000 rpm the.

Force vigorous, spontaneous response, joy to speed up music and sound guttural and this is produced handmade by Audi V8, which boasts an incredible power and emotion. The 4.2 FSI achieves this coupe of 1,725 ??kg accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 4.6 seconds and reaches an electronically limited speed of 250 km / h.

Audi can increase this figure in the Audi RS5 to 280 km / h under the express request of the customer.

Impressive efficiency: only 10.8 liters of fuel per 100 km.

Efficiency is characteristic of all Audi models and Audi RS 5 is no exception. The mighty eight-cylinder engine consumes an average of 10.8 liters of fuel per 100 km traveled, which is a fairly lower than that consumed by its main consumers. This impressive figure was achieved in part thanks to the technology used in Audi's modular efficiency platform. The engine and undercarriage all have been optimized to minimize friction, the oil pump only works when needed, and an energy recovery system manages storage on the retention and braking.

The transmission power of the Audi RS5

The gearbox S tronic seven-speed that comes standard with the Audi RS 5 has also been designed to meet the highest standards of efficiency with good exchange relationships studied long marches which have the appropriate development to reach the maximum speed without straining the engine. The box has two clutches and two shafts, both remain continuously active, but only one is geared to the engine. The gears are connected alternately at breakneck speeds through the two clutches, and do so with absolute smoothness and almost imperceptibly.

This transmission S tronic seven-speed, specially reinforced to accommodate the high-revving V8 engine, can operate in two modes: fully automatic, or through an innovative selector or paddles located in the vehicle's steering column. At the same time, with the Audi drive select which incorporates the production car, the driver can choose between three alternatives operating in automatic mode: auto, comfort and dynamic. In the launch control program gearbox S tronic seven-speed acceleration ensures flawless with the maximum power and minimum tire slippage.

New technology quattro: the crown gear differential

Like all models, the Audi RS 5 also transmits power to the road via a permanent all-wheel drive quattro. Audi (the leading brand of all-wheel drive) presents the art center differential, which regulates power distribution between front and rear, a crown gear differential.

The chassis of the Audi RS5

The limited-slip center differential gear is compact and lightweight crown, and to achieve a high degree of efficiency. With its group of pressure plates, the differential provides a wider range of variation in distributing torque between the front and rear axles. If necessary, it can transmit up to 70% torque front and up to 85% back. 40:60 distribution with which the car is configured for standard operation ensures a touch of sporty driving. This new differential works in conjunction with electronic torque vectoring that affects all four wheels. If an inner wheel loses traction in a curve when the vehicle is reaching its limits, the system slows down gently to prevent sliding.

Moreover, as a perfect complement to the new chassis quattro, Audi offers an optional sport differential on the rear axle. It distributes the torque between the rear wheels to improve stability and grip when the vehicle is taken to the limit. The electronic management of the sport differential Audi RS 5 has been designed for maximum dynamism.

With respect to the springs, dampers, stabilizer bars and spring elements, the chassis of the Audi RS5 has a sporty configuration and the ground clearance is reduced body at 20 mm from the Audi A5. The equipment of the Audi RS5 has alloy wheels 265/35 19 inch tires. These tires are designed with a unique five-spoke structure. Optionally you can order 20-inch wheels with 275/30 tires.

The Audi RS 5 has a powerful braking system with internally ventilated discs measuring 365 mm in diameter on the front axle. For maximum heat dissipation, friction rings are perforated steel and connected with small tips to aluminum brake discs. The striking black brake calipers with the RS logo are also made ??of aluminum. The front with eight pistons each. Audi is available in the option of incorporating carbonocerámicos brake discs on the front axle with 380 mm in diameter. These are extremely light, strong and resilient. The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is integrated into a sport mode and can be switched off completely.

Assistance systems Audi RS5

Servotronic address hardness variable depending on the speed is specially calibrated in the Audi RS 5. The Audi drive select is available as standard (a system of control of vehicle dynamics) allows the driver to select three different operating modes: comfort, auto and dynamic, which is in line with the Directorate No, the gearbox S tronic seven-speed sport differential, engine and exhaust system. And if the car is fitted with MMI navigation, a fourth mode allows the driver to customize your own profile as desired by combining the various parameters.

Regarding the engine, the Audi drive select controls the two valves that regulate exhaust system and butterflies for sound. When they are open, the sound is even more emphatic resonant. Along with the sport differential, dynamic steering is another optional component of Audi drive select which adapts the gear ratio and vehicle speed is more direct and low speed maneuvers. Within the limits of rotation of the drive is automatically guaranteed a smooth motion handling with less steering correction.

The exterior design and the body of the Audi RS5

The Audi RS 5 shows a strong personality and athletic. Its classic and beautiful coupé style is enhanced with new details. The single-frame grill Audi typical account in this model with a grid of diamond carbon finished in a shade brighter. Xenon Plus headlights are standard and carry a strip of LED lights for daylight. The oversized air intakes for the engine, the front brakes and radiators highlighted by the contrast of its outline, and the newly designed bumper end in an appendix at the bottom (Splinter).

The bulging fenders with horizontal upper edges evoke a classic model of Audi: Audi pioneered four-wheel drive quattro which also premiered at the Geneva Motor Show 30 years ago. The moldings that frame the side windows and the front grille and the housing of the exterior mirrors have a matt aluminum look and the body provides eight paint finishes available.

The rear is dominated by two oval exhaust pipes integrated into the bumper. A large diffuser protrudes upward. The spoiler integrated into boot lid automatically rises from 120 km / h and returns to pick up the 80 km / h.

Protection for the underbody has been extended in the Audi RS 5 and features air vents for the gearbox S tronic seven-speed for the front brakes. At a high cruising speed, the aerodynamic characteristics of the Audi RS 5 generate a downward vertical pressure to improve the stability of the car.

The interior of the Audi RS5

disansaturismo The dynamic and elegant style continues in the vehicle interior. The sports seats, with a marked lateral section to fit perfectly to the body, are standard and have integrated headrests.
