In the Audi RS 6 Avant, less is more. The reduced vehicle mass
improves its power-to-weight ratio, making your driving even more
dynamic. The enormous maximum torque of 700 Nm makes sure
of that. The 4.0 litre V8 TFSI 412 kW engine accelerates powerfully from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3.9 seconds.
The RS 6 is not only irresistibly dynamic, it is efficient as well.
Audi cylinder on demand switches four of the eight cylinders off if
they are not needed – without you noticing. The engine still runs
smoothly and powerfully, but needs less energy – thus reducing
emissions.

The 8-speed tiptronic supports you with quick, precise gear changes – all to
suit your personal style. With the Dynamic Shift Program (DSP) the transmission
adapts to your driving style and changes gear at just the right moment. In
addition to the Drive mode (D), the Sport mode (S) is also available, which you
can use to make your driving even more dynamic. But at the same time the
tiptronic also increases efficiency with its large transmission ratio spread.
In addition, Audi drive select gives you further individuality. It enables you to
influence a range of vehicle components at the press of a button, for example
the accelerator characteristics, the steering system and the suspension, to
experience an even sportier and more balanced drive.

About weight reduction
22
The demands placed on modern vehicles
are contradictory. On the one hand, they
must offer enhanced performance and
comfort, on the other they need to be more
economical and efficient. Audi ultra resolves
this conflict by examining each and every
component. We demand the highest
functionality combined with the lowest
possible weight. The result is an intelligent
mix of materials that even allows a reduction
in engine size: lighter vehicles no longer need
a large engine to be agile. In 2013 and the
two preceding years, it was a significantly
more compact and lightweight V6 TDI engine
that powered multiple Audi R18 podium
finishes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Their
victorious predecessor in 2010, the R15 TDI,
had featured a larger V10 TDI engine.
Audi ultra:
Every gram less extends the lead.
Audi ultra, the pioneering lightweight technology
from Audi, is more than just the sum of its
individual components. It combines innovative
materials, intelligent design principles and
production processes that use resources
sparingly into an overall concept. Many Audi
ultra lightweight measures have already been
implemented in the Audi RS 6 Avant.
That starts with the body itself. The aluminium
hybrid body combines low weight with high
rigidity. The body is produced in a hybrid steelaluminium design. This provides a high level
of safety with an agile driving sensation – and
reduced fuel consumption. The aluminium
components on the front and rear axles as well
as the lightweight forged aluminium wheels
consistently implement this lightweight theme.
Innovative wave brake discs with a wave-shaped
contour and aluminium brake disc chambers
specifically reduce the weight on the wheels. The
resulting reduction in unsprung masses leads to
improved rolling characteristics.
Technologies such as FSI® direct fuel injection
and turbo charging have made Audi engines more
and more powerful. The modern 4.0 litre V8 TFSI
engine in the RS 6 Avant produces more power
The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures as well as the efficiency class can be found on page 56.
with less displacement and is therefore
significantly lighter than similar engines in
previous series.
Each lightweight component has an effect on
other components, allowing their dimensions
to be reduced as well. The result is a continuous
development process towards less and less
weight and more and more efficiency. In figures:
a vehicle that weighs 100 kg less can save up
to 0.3 litres of fuel per 100 km.

Audi cylinder on demand
in the TFSI® engine.
The Audi RS 6 Avant has a V8 4.0 TFSI engine
that features the innovative Audi cylinder on
demand. This ensures that during partial load
operation, only four of the eight cylinders are
used – without you noticing the difference. The
engine always runs smoothly and powerfully,
but it uses less fuel and emits less CO₂.
We describe its mode of operation as “intelligent
performance”. Audi cylinder on demand selectively
closes certain cylinders, two per cylinder bank. As a
result, the engine runs impressively smoothly even
during partial load operation.
The deactivation depends on several factors:
the revs are between 960 and 3,500, the engine
temperature must be at least 30 °C and you
must be in at least third gear. If you then do
not need the full power of eight cylinders, the
Audi valvelift system closes the intake and
outlet valves and switches off the injection and
ignition of the corresponding cylinders. This
means that neither is air taken in and fuel
injected, nor is exhaust gas emitted. In other
words: the consumption and emission values
are noticeably improved.
The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures as well as the efficiency class can be found on page 56.
In addition, the V8 4.0 TFSI engine features
a start-stop system and recuperation, and it
goes without saying that it complies with the
EU5 emission standard.
Thanks to its very spontaneous responsiveness
and exceptional power delivery across the entire
engine speed range, the 8-cylinder engine
promotes an impressive driving style. Its 412 kW
accelerate the RS 6 Avant at a torque of 700 Nm
from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. The engine
is electronically regulated at 250 km/h, but by
request also at 280 or 305 km/h.
26
tiptronic
When does the tiptronic
change to the next gear?
At just the right time.
A high-performance vehicle needs an appropriate
transmission. Which is why the Audi RS 6 Avant
has an automatic transmission that stands out
due to fast gear changes and a high degree of
efficiency.
The 8-speed tiptronic transmission enables
spontaneous, highly flexible gear changes. Its
wheel set concept with four wheel sets requires
only five gear change elements, of which two are
opened in each gear. Three multi-plate clutches
and two brakes work with a high degree of
efficiency – or, put another way: with particularly
short gear change times.
The gear changes occur within the optimal
speed range – this reduces power flow losses and
allows you to move with agility. The Dynamic Shift
Program (DSP) determines the suitable gear
changing point itself, and adapts to your individual
driving style. The DSP accesses route data in the
standard MMI navigation plus with MMI touch. This
way it can include corners in its shifting strategy
and avoid unnecessary gear changing. Along with
the Drive mode (D), the additional Sport program
(S) offers a sportier driving style using gear change
points that are set later.
The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures as well as the efficiency class can be found on page 56.
You can influence manual gear changes at any
time with the shift paddles on the steering wheel
or by briefly touching the gear lever, for example
for more dynamic performance or to drop gears
for enhanced engine braking on winding, hilly
roads.
With its cleverly designed gear changing
mechanism and the large transmission-ratio
spread, the tiptronic helps to reduce consumption
and emission values and combines comfort while
changing gear and driving off with impressive
driving dynamics.

quattro®
Why only use two wheels
when a car has four?
The quattro® permanent all-wheel drive.
Those who know Audi know quattro. And once
you have driven with the permanent all-wheel
drive from Audi, you won’t want to drive with
anything else. Why? Because there is almost no
other drive system around that transfers engine
power to the road so directly.
mechanical planetary transmission distributes the
drive torques asymmetrically between the front
and rear axle in a 40 : 60 ratio for better driving
dynamics in the basic design. But if necessary up
to 70 % can be distributed to the front or up to
85 % to the rear to offset any occurring wheel slip.
The central component of the quattro drivetrain
on the Audi RS 6 Avant is the self-locking centre
differential. With its consistent lightweight
construction, a weight advantage has been
achieved over the previous version. The purely
In conjunction with the wheel-selective torque
control, the drive force is distributed to each
individual wheel according to the driving
situation. What is special here is the way the
effects of the torque distribution are felt before

undesirable wheel slip occurs. This allows a
yaw moment to be produced, which supports
cornering.
The result is precisely controlled and sporty
handling with increased agility and superb
traction at the same time.
On request the quattro drivetrain can be fitted
with sport differential on the rear axle, in order
to further enhance driving dynamics.
The self-locking centre
differential distributes the
drive force between front and
rear axle purely mechanically;
up to 70 % to the front axle
or up to 85 % to the rear axle,
as required
30
Suspension
Superb performance can be learnt.
From one’s suspension, for instance.
Whether on long journeys or quick trips, the
RS adaptive air suspension gives the Audi RS 6
Avant excellent road handling while giving you
poise. It combines precise steering characteristics,
outstanding grip and high agility.
The front axle is a 5-link construction, while the
rear axle follows the self-tracking trapezoidallink principle. Many vehicle components are
made of aluminium to reduce weight and keep
the unsprung masses low.
The RS adaptive air suspension combines an
air suspension with a variably adaptive damper
system. Sensors on the body and on the axles
monitor the current driving situation and send
information to the system during the journey.
This suspension also allows for various trims
on the vehicle and simultaneously acts as a level
regulator so that driving features are not
compromised even with a heavy load.
The RS sport suspension plus with Dynamic
Ride Control (DRC) is available as an option.
With this suspension variant with steel springs
and shock absorbers with variable characteristics,
the nodding and pitching movements of the
vehicle around the lateral and longitudinal axes
are reduced purely by hydraulic means. The
diagonal dampers are connected to one another
via oil pipes and one central valve each. If the
dampers are immersed differently, for example
during fast cornering, the valves affect the oil
flow on the cushioned wheel. They increase

support there, thus reducing side tilt and
enhancing driving dynamics.
in an extensive series of tests, including some
conducted on racing tracks.
With Audi drive select, you can select different
modes to adjust the damper properties of the
suspension and, in the case of RS adaptive air
suspension, the trim of your vehicle. The damper
recognition can be varied in three stages: comfort,
auto and dynamic. Depending on the setting
selected, both suspensions offer a wide scope for
any route and for your driving style.
Equally, the electromechanical power steering
was given a specific characteristic curve as part of
its adaptation to the Audi RS 6 Avant. It works
with variable steering support, depending on the
speed. Thanks to the low-position configuration,
the steering forces are conducted just a short
distance to the wheels, which provides a
spontaneous steering response and gives you
precise feedback from the road. Since the
steering requires almost no energy when driving
in a straight line, it also helps to reduce fuel
consumption.
In order to do justice to the dynamic demands
made of a high-performance vehicle, the
characteristic curves of the springs and dampers,
as well as the rigidity of the tubular stabilisers,
have been developed and put through their paces

The brake discs on the front axle
have a diameter of 390 mm and a
wave-shaped outer contour.
The high-gloss black painted brake
callipers bear the RS logo.
Except for a top brake system.
The standard 19-inch RS brake system takes a
powerful hold with its 6-piston fixed callipers on
the front axle. The wave brake discs comprise a
cast friction ring with a wave-shaped outer contour
which is connected to the brake disc chamber by
means of aluminium pins. This so-called floating
mounting ensures that the friction ring remains
tension-free to a major extent, improving stability
under high temperature loads. In addition, the
axial perforation and cooling channels for internal
ventilation improve the performance of the brake
discs. The use of aluminium and the characteristic
geometry of the friction rings reduce the weight
of the brake discs, thus improving the balance of
unsprung masses.
The optional 20-inch ceramic brake* is available
for even more demanding loads. With this brake
system, the brake discs are made of a carbonfibre reinforced ceramic material. This is based
on hard and abrasion-proof silicon carbide with
high-strength carbon fibres embedded. This
combination results in an enormous abrasion
resistance which allows extremely high mileages
to be achieved and at the same time reduces
sensitivity to high thermal loads. In addition, the
material is lighter than steel discs.
* Please consult your Audi partner or national Audi website to find out more about the special features of the ceramic brake.
The brake discs on the front axle
have a diameter of 420 mm.

can be configured.
You have four modes available to adapt these
components to the individual driving situation.
Auto mode is the setting that defines the
superior sporty quality of the Audi RS 6 Avant.
Comfort mode is particularly suitable for longer
distances, whereas the dynamic mode is designed
for more ambitious driving. In individual mode
you can configure the individual components
yourself.
In addition, various optional systems can be
influenced. For example, the characteristic

can be varied in three levels: from balanced
rolling in comfort mode through to sporty, direct
responsiveness in the dynamic setting.
The optional dynamic steering allows the steering
ratio and support to be changed depending on
driving speed and the Audi drive select mode
selected.
In conjunction with the equipment version
quattro with sport differential, an additional
infinitely variable distribution of the drive force
between the rear wheels takes place. This torque
manipulation specifically influences the vehicle’s
steering behaviour and increases agility even
further, in line with the Audi drive select setting.
The cornering light function of the adaptive light
or the reactions of the adaptive cruise control
can also be set to be either more gradual or more
spontaneous. In dynamic mode the trigger
thresholds of the reversible seat belt tensioners
(with Audi pre sense basic series onward) can
also be adjusted.

adaptive light including variable
headlight range control
consisting of dynamic cornering light, static turning
light and variable headlight range control; the dynamic
cornering light infers the course of the road from the
movement of the steering wheel and variably illuminates
the bend by pivoting the xenon headlights; operational
between speeds of approximately 10 km/h and 110 km/h.
The static turning light automatically switches on if the
indicators have been engaged for a while at a low vehicle
speed and illuminates the new direction in which the
vehicle is travelling. The variable headlight range control
features a camera on the interior mirror which registers
sources of light from other road users. The range and
width of the headlight beam are continuously varied
between dipped and high beam to suit ambient
conditions, ensuring that the headlights provide good
visibility without dazzling other road users. The headlights
also have 3 different light distribution modes which are
activated according to the vehicle speed: town light,
motorway light and country light. In addition, Audi
connect enables controlling of these 3 light distribution
modes and the intersection light by the vehicle support
based on navigation data, and with the aid of stored
route data from the MMI navigation plus with MMI touch.
The convenient functions of the lighting assistant are
supplemented by the travel mode, with GPS-assisted
switching between right and left-hand drive modes.

users; including headlight cleaning system
The model-specific standard and optional equipment can be found in the index from page 58 onwards.

The services are available only with an existing or
separate mobile phone contract and only within the
range of the respective mobile phone network.
Additional costs may be incurred when receiving data
packets from the internet, depending on the terms
of your mobile phone contract, particularly when used
abroad. Because of the high data volumes involved,
a data flat rate is strongly recommended.
The model-specific standard and optional equipment can be found in the index from page 58 onwards.
Handset in the front for car phone
wireless handset with colour display and integrated SIM
card reader, for making private phone calls; easy writing
of text messages thanks to automatic word recognition;
handset is stored in the front centre armrest
Assistance systems
Audi pre sense basic
Networking the different vehicle systems enables
driving situations to be categorised and, where necessary,
actions to be implemented for preventive occupant
protection. These include: belt tightening, activating the
hazard warning system and closing the windows as well
as the panoramic glass sunroof (can be ordered as an
option).
adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function
including Audi pre sense front
automatic distance control (control range 0–250 km/h);
working within system limits, it uses two radar sensors
and a camera to detect vehicles ahead and maintains
the distance by automatic braking and accelerating;
independent braking to a stop, automated restart at
driver’s request; 4 distance levels and 3 driving modes
(comfort, auto and dynamic) can be selected individually.
The use of Audi connect services is possible: due to route
data stored in the navigation system such as the sweep of
bends and corners or road classifications a comfortable
distance control is possible, for example if you drive
again on the same winding roads. In addition to the
functions of Audi pre sense basic, Audi pre sense front
implements preventive occupant protection measures
when threatened with an imminent frontal collision;
includes Audi braking guard with driver warning through
an extended brake assist feature and with preventive
occupant protection. Working within system limits, Audi
pre sense front utilises the front sensors of adaptive
cruise control with Stop&Go function to carry out its
detection tasks; extended by the function of maximum
deceleration: this is initiated at speeds below 30 km/h if
there is a danger of collision with a stationary or moving
vehicle in order to reduce the severity of the collision or
to avoid this collision if possible.
Audi active lane assist
lane compliance assistant; helps drivers comfortably
keep in their respective lanes, within system limits
(operating range from approx. 60 to 250 km/h maximum);
if the system is activated and ready and the driver did
not indicate, the Audi active lane assist will guide the
vehicle within recognised lane boundary lines by means
of gentle, corrective steering intervention; the driver
can choose whether to be supported continuously or just
shortly before crossing the road marking (choice of
earlier or later steering time); additional steering wheel
vibration can be adjusted if the driver wishes; additional
display in the head-up display (can be ordered as an
option)
Audi side assist including Audi pre sense rear
lane change assistant; working within system limits,
it assists the driver when changing lanes (operating
range 30–250 km/h). Displays are integrated into both
exterior mirrors. Audi side assist uses 2 radar sensors to
measure the vehicle’s distance from other vehicles it has
detected as well as the speed difference between them.
If Audi side assist classifies the speed difference and
distance as being critical in the event of a lane change,
a display will appear in the respective exterior mirror.
In addition to the functions of Audi pre sense basic, Audi
pre sense rear uses the rear sensors of Audi side assist,
while working within the system limits, to detect a
possible rear-end collision.
Assistance package including Audi pre sense plus
The assistance package contains the functions of the
following assistance systems:
▪ adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function
▪ Audi active lane assist
▪ Audi side assist
▪ Audi pre sense front
▪ Audi pre sense rear
The features of Audi pre sense basic, Audi pre sense
front and Audi pre sense rear are extended by the
function of a maximum deceleration to Audi pre sense
plus: In addition to the functions of Audi pre sense
front, Audi pre sense plus activates the Audi braking
guard in certain situations in which a collision is
unavoidable and initiates a maximum deceleration
action to minimise the impact speed of the crash by
up to 40 km/h.

Night vision assistant with highlighting of detected
pedestrians
with integrated thermal imaging camera; when driving
at night, this system extends the driver’s range of
visibility beyond the light provided by the dipped beam;
records thermal images; an image processing algorithm
then evaluates the camera’s data and marks any persons
it has detected in yellow in the driver information
system’s colour display; the marking changes to red and
a warning tone is emitted if the system, by analysing the
movement and position of the person it has detected,
considers that there is a possible risk. In conjunction
with one of the following lighting systems, the person is
also illuminated with 3 successive brief flashes of the
headlights (marking light): xenon plus in conjunction
with high-beam assist, adaptive light including variable
headlight range control or LED headlights. Additional
warning symbol in the head-up display (available as an
option); image quality is affected by poor ambient
conditions
Head-up display
projects as required information relevant to the driver
from the assistance systems, navigation or the RS menu
of the driver information system, as well as warning
symbols onto the windscreen in the driver’s direct field of
vision; height adjustable; provides multicoloured display
with good contrast and minimal distraction from the road
Cruise control
at speeds of 30 km/h to 250 km/h and above, the
system keeps the set speed constant, provided that
engine power and engine braking effect permit it;
operated via separate steering column stalk, set speed
displayed in driver information system
Camera-based speed limit display
camera-based recognition and display of speed limits,
including temporary speed limit displays (e.g. above
motorways). Additionally, working within system limits,
there is an evaluation of the particular situation in wet
conditions, and speed limits displayed depending on the
time of the day, road works and when using a trailer. If
a sign has not been recognised by the camera, the speed
limit displayed can be taken from the navigation data
(where available) thanks to Audi connect. Additional
display in the head-up display (can be ordered as an
option)

how efficiently the vehicle uses the fuel, but are also influenced by driving
behaviour and other non-technical factors. CO₂ is the greenhouse gas
primarily responsible for global warming.

⁷ We recommend using sulphur-free SuperPlus unleaded fuel (RON 98)
complying with DIN EN 228. If this is not available, use sulphur-free super
unleaded RON 95 complying with DIN EN 228; power output will be slightly
reduced. Unleaded RON 95 fuel with a maximum ethanol content of 10 %
(E10) can generally be used. Fuel consumption details refer to operation
with RON 95 fuel complying with 692/2008/EC.
⁸ The figures given were calculated using the specified measuring procedures.

The fascination of Audi
Responsibility
Living up to our responsibilities is a principle that is
firmly anchored in Audi strategy. Alongside commercial
success and international competitiveness, our
responsibility toward company employees and society as
a whole is a key consideration, as is protecting the
environment and conserving resources. And what is true
in the details – our catalogues are printed on FSC-certified
paper – also holds in general: Audi develops cars that are
not only sporty and emotive but also ever more efficient.
In the long run, Audi wants its products to allow
CO₂-neutral mobility. Seeing to it that production in Audi
plants gradually becomes CO₂-neutral is another aspect
of our comprehensive approach. Audi is also committed
to society – particularly in the fields of education,
technology and social projects. At Audi, sustainability is
closely linked with how we see the future: the Audi Urban
Future Initiative sees Audi working with international
experts to get to the root of future urban challenges and
trends in mobility.
Discover the world of Audi.
Choosing an Audi means
choosing a brand that offers more.
More individuality.
More exclusivity. More fascination.
Team spirit
The Audi experience
The fascination of Audi can be experienced in many
different ways. Audi City in London, for example, gives
you digital access to all models at their actual size and in
real time. And of course it is always worth visiting one of
the major motor shows. This is where Audi always presents
its new models and invites you to take a look at how the
future is being shaped with “Vorsprung durch Technik”.
Anyone interested in seeing how Audi is already putting
this into practice will find fascinating insight in the
“Vorsprung durch Technik” online special at www.audi.com.
But a look back can also be rewarding: at the Audi mobile
museum in Ingolstadt, history and high-tech go hand in
hand. A total of 130 historic exhibits and state-of-the-art
forms of presentation make for a thrilling symbiosis. Plus,
Audi driving experience allows you to live the excitement
and countless possibilities of current Audi models.
Here, pure driving enjoyment is combined with valuable
learning effects. This is ensured by a team of specially
trained and highly qualified instructors who provide
practical tips to help you optimise your driving skills.
Motorsport is a driving force behind the brand. For years
Audi has been among the champions in various racing
series, for instance the 24 Hours of Le Mans or the DTM
German Touring Car Masters. The values that are crucial
in many different areas of sport are also central ones for
Audi: precision, passion and technology. No coincidence
then that Audi has been sponsoring sporting events for
www.audi.com
many years. In the world of winter sports, for example,
Audi has been the main sponsor of the German Ski
Association (DSV) for almost three decades and has also
partnered 14 other national alpine teams. In football,
we support national and international teams. And
Audi is also a partner for the German Olympic Sports
Confederation.
