2007 Audi S6
January 24th, 2007
Audi brings its own 10-cylinder contender with the 2007 S6, which is hot on the heels of BMW’s first V10-powered luxury sedan, the 500-hp M5, in 2005. The S6 is basically a high-performance variant of Audi’s midsize A6 sedan.
Using a less potent versoin of the V10 in the previously announced S8, the S6’s 5.2-liter engine produces 420 hp at 6,800 rpm and 398 pound-feet of torque. That’s 70 hp shy of BMW’s M5 engine, but Audi promises more of a bias towards luxury. Audi says the S6 will sprint to 62 miles per hour from a standstill in 5.2 seconds.
