Audi RS4 Avant 2013 specs released

Audi has released the official specs of the company’s 2013 incarnation of the RS4 Avant station-wagon.

The pumped-up wagon will come with a naturally-aspirated 4.2-litre V8 FSI engine producing 450 hp and 430 Nm of torque. The German manufacturer also claims that the new RS4 can do the 0-100 kph sprint in 4.7 seconds, and also eat its way to 280 kph.

A 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles the shifting duty, while Quattro all-wheel-drive dumps the power to the ground. In addition, engineers have graced the RS4 Avant with new wave-design disc brakes, although ceramic stoppers are also available at extra cost. A sport rear differential will also be available for those who take the green-lights a bit more seriously.

Audi says the 2013 RS4 Avant will land in Europe this fall, but at more than Dhs 300,000 in price, it is safe to say it will not come to the GCC.
