The Audi RS6 pickup featured here straight from the mind
of rendering artist X-Tomi Design, shows what such a vehicle could look like.
We absolutely love it and are sure it could prove popular in countries like
Australia where high-powered utes are hugely desirable.
Much of the RS6’s standard design has been retained
at the front half but the front doors do appear to have been shortened. Things
get really wild with the removal of the second-row and rear doors and the
fitment of a near-vertical rear window that makes way for a large bed where the
rear seats and trunk would ordinarily sit.
If Audi was able to ensure the car retained its
rigidity despite missing most of its roof, we don’t think building an RS6
pickup truck would be all that difficult. After all, a YouTuber builder
recently transformed a Tesla Model 3 into a pickup in a shed. Audi Sport certainly
has the resources and expertise to build such a vehicle.
It would no doubt be…interesting to drive due to the
lack of weight over the rear wheels despite the RS6 Avant featuring a trick
all-wheel drive system. As for power? Well, that would come from the Avant’s
twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with 48-volt mild-hybrid technology and 591 hp and 800 Nm of torque.
