There’s a new Audi RS SUV arriving at the 2017 Geneva
Motor Show next month, and its believed to be the Audi RS Q5.
According to report, Audi is working on 10 new RS
models. A majority of these models are understood to be SUVs, and one of them
will be unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show in March.
The
upcoming Audi RS Q5 could be powered by a twin-turbo version from the current unit for
increased power and torque, or by the Porsche Panamera 4S‘ 2.9-litre bi- turbo
V6 engine.
The 2017 Porsche Panamera 4S’ engine produces 440 PS between 5,650 and 6,600 rpm and 550 Nm of torque between 1,750 and
5,500 rpm. This engine should allow the Audi RS Q5 to accelerate from 0-100
km/h acceleration in under 5 seconds. The top speed, like in the SQ5,
should be electronically limited to 250 km/h.
The 2017 Audi SQ5 will go on sale in Germany in
mid-2017, and a few months later, the first-ever Audi RS Q5 could reach the
dealerships in the company’s home market.
