Audi RS Avant 4

A quarter of a century ago, the Audi RS 2 station wagon, developed in collaboration with Porsche, was presented in Ingolstadt. And yes - today this five-door with an in-line 5-cylinder engine under the hood, developing 315 horsepower, can be safely considered one of the founders of this class.

The current station wagon is happy with a 4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine making 600 horsepower and 800 Nm, but going faster than ever. Acceleration to 100 km / h - 3,6 seconds.
