Audi quattro concept (2010)
Concept car · 2010 · Combustion
A 30th-anniversary homage to the original quattro with a turbo five-cylinder.
Audi made this white coupe for the 30th anniversary of the original quattro, shortening the RS 5 and building it in aluminium and carbon fibre to about 1,300 kg. A turbocharged 2.5 litre five-cylinder gives 300 kW through a six-speed manual and quattro drive, good for 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. Audi weighed a limited run of 200 to 500 cars, but the project was shelved in 2012.
