Audi’s Hot New Lifts: The RS6 Avant & RS7 Sportback Performance Saga

Hey car lovers! Audi just dropped a turbocharged power‑up that’s turning heads. The RS6 Avant Performance and the RS7 Sportback Performance are slated to roll into Singapore in the latter half of 2023. Here’s the juicy stuff that makes them a whole lot louder on the road.

What’s New?

  • Turbo Talk: Bigger turbochargers, higher boost pressure – basically, the engine is pumping out a $30 bhp bump.
  • Power & Torque: From 591 bhp & 800 Nm up to 621 bhp & 850 Nm. That’s a significant upgrade for the horsepower‑hungry.
  • Speed‑Zapper: 0‑100 km/h? Now only 3.4 s – 0.2 s faster than the base models. A quick burst that’ll make your coffee mug fly off the dash.
  • Weight‑Weedblet: By trimming the insulation between the engine and interior, Audi shaved 8 kg off the cars. Less weight means more punch.
  • Top‑speed Triumph: The ceiling’s raised to a glossy 280 km/h—no more stalling at the highway superhighway.

Why It’s a Game Changer

With these tweaks, Audi isn’t just putting a fancy badge on the cars; they’re genuinely giving the driver a rawer, closer connection to the machine. The reduced insulation feels like a whisper between the engine’s roar and the cabin—pretty fresh and a tad rebellious.

Feel the adrenaline? That’s exactly what Audi wants you to feel. Strap in, because these machines are designed to make every day a thrilling, slightly humorous ride.

What’s New in the Performance Editions?

For drivers who crave a bit more punch and flair, the latest Performance models have been given a bang‑for‑the‑buck makeover. Here’s what you’ll find cargo‑loaded beneath the hood and around the wheel.

Sound & Visibility Enhancements

  • Bang & Olufsen 3‑D Sound – The premium speaker system now delivers immersive audio that feels like you’re inside a concert.
  • Park Assist Plus – Tackle tight spots with confidence; the system steps in to back you out or park edges.
  • Heads‑up Display – Keep your eyes on the road while still receiving key data right in front of you.
  • 360° Cameras – Monitor the car’s surroundings from every angle – a real lifesaver in traffic.
  • 22‑inch Matt Grey Wheels – Instantly gives the car a more grounded, athletic look.

Exterior Upgrades Made Standard

Gone are the days of option packs; the Matt Grey Exterior Style Package is now part of every Performance variant. Added to that, you’ll see the sleek RS Sport Exhaust in Gloss Black along with Audi’s iconic rings and badges. The RS Design Package comes in a choice of Red, Blue, or Grey, and you’re also getting an Alcantara Flat‑Bottom Steering Wheel to keep the feel premium no matter how dramatic the day.

Grip That Just Gets You There

All these models now sport the Continental Sport Contact 7 285/30 tires. These lighter, high‑performance tires give you:

  • Improved traction on both dry and wet surfaces.
  • Reduced under‑steer during high‑speed turns.
  • Sharper handling across every speed band.

Transmission Tech Gets a Tune‑Up

When you consider all those upgrades, you’ll find the Transmission Control Unit software has been refreshed too. That means:

  • Faster shift times that feel almost instantaneous.
  • A wider spread between driving modes so the car feels more categorized and purposeful.

Take home a Performance model and you’re not just buying a car; you’re investing in a set of upgrades that bring the day‑to‑day driving experience up a notch, with a splash of style and a touch of sport.

Unleash the Beast: RS Dynamics Plus & Snap‑On Colour Choices

More Than Speed—It’s a Whole New Ride

Wanna feel the rush of 304 km/h? RS Dynamics Plus is the ticket.

No problem—these versatile calipers come in a trio of eye‑catching shades: grey, red, or blue. Front discs hit 440 mm for that audacious push, while the rear keeps it 370 mm for stability.

New RS6 Avant Performance and RS7 Sportback Performance are straight outta the colour lab—ready to stand out on any road:

RS Interior Gets a Splash of Blue: Surprise, Surprise!

Remember those classic grey and red RS looks? Well, they’re getting a brand‑new, eye‑catching upgrade: blue. It’s not just a shade switch; it’s a full‑on refresh that feels both fresh and fierce.

Blue‑Stitched Magic Everywhere

  • Steering Wheel – The Alcantara black rim gets a pop of Mercato blue stitching that dances all the way around.
  • Floor Mats – They’re dressed in the same vibrant blue to keep that theme rolling from start to finish.
  • Central Console & Selector Lever Cuff – Both feature the striking blue thread, tying the whole style together.

Eco‑friendly Tech Meets Sporty Comfort

The selector lever knob and side of the central console are crafted from Dinamica microfibre, a material with around 45 % recycled PET — green never looked so stylish.

Meanwhile, sports seats boast Valcona leather with honeycomb perforations. The stitching? Blue Mercato again. Talk about a coordinated effort!

Why This Matters

From a driver’s perspective, the new blue accents help you instantly spot the RS world cone and keep you in the right gear. The recycled fibers give the touch a smooth, sustainable feel, while the honeycomb perforation keeps each seat cool and comfy.

In short: the RS interior now feels like a sporty, eco‑friendly playground, with blue stitching adding that extra sprinkle of personality.
