The 2015 ABT Audi S6 Avant: A Power-Packed Contender
In a remarkable display of automotive engineering prowess, ABT Sportsline has recently unveiled a performance package for the 2015 Audi S6 Avant that promises to nudge it closer to the performance capabilities of the RS6. In what could be seen as a direct challenge to the old adage, "The RS6 outperforms the S6," this new package from ABT Sportsline is more than just a minor power boost. Instead, it transforms the Audi S6 Avant into a high-performance machine that commands respect and admiration from automotive enthusiasts around the globe.
Performance Upgrades Galore
The newly introduced package delivers an impressive power increase. The S6 Avant's original 450 horsepower (331 kW) and 550 Nm of torque have been bumped up to an exhilarating 550 horsepower (404 kW) and 680 Nm, respectively. Even more, ABT Sportsline has ramped up the car's maximum speed to a staggering 290 km/h. Notably, these enhancements are not exclusive to the S6 Avant; ABT offers the same upgrades to Audi S7 drivers. The company assures the reliability of these upgrades by offering comprehensive warranties, reinforced by extensive testing on in-house dynamometers and public roads.
Aesthetic Refinements
But it's not just about performance. The ABT package also brings an array of aesthetic refinements that enhance the vehicle's visual appeal. Fender inserts, mirror caps finished in a polished exposed carbon, and a rear spoiler made of ultra-light CFRP contribute to the car's athletic stance. And the wheel options? You can choose between 20'' and 21'' attractive DR, FR, and ER-C wheels, optionally equipped with high-performance brand-name tyres.
Interior Touches and Advanced Handling
The ABT modifications continue to the inside of the S6 Avant, with new integrated entrance lights, a custom start-stop button, and exclusive ABT-logo floor and trunk mats. One particular highlight is the incorporation of LED shifting lights in the steering wheel. This enhancement not only adds to the overall aesthetic appeal but also provides a unique, dynamic driving experience. The package also features the electronic ABT Level Control for the air suspension system, which perfectly positions the wheels in their arches, and effectively lowers the center of gravity. This clever tweak noticeably improves the S6 Avant's cornering ability, further enriching the driving experience.
A New Benchmark for the S6
The 2015 ABT Audi S6 Avant is not merely a souped-up version of the base model; it is a remarkable reinterpretation of what the S6 Avant can be. ABT Sportsline has successfully pushed the boundaries of performance, aesthetics, and driver engagement, providing a package that will undoubtedly appeal to those who seek a performance-oriented yet stylish vehicle. As a result, the line between the S6 and RS6 seems to blur, ushering in a new era of competition between these two automotive giants. With such improvements, one can't help but look forward to the next innovative steps in the constant evolution of automotive technology.
