Audi RS5 India Launch; Price Starts At Rs 95.28L

Audi India has launched the new RS5 Coupe in India. The RS5 Coupe, which is based on the A5 sedan, is priced at INR 9,528,000 in Mumbai and INR 9,681,000 in Delhi (both ex-showroom figures), which is substantially higher than the price for which it was offered in India earlier. Never the less, the new updated RS5 coupe offers performance equivalent to a supercar and comes packed with features, which justifies the price.

Audi RS5 Coupe is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.2 liter FSI V8 engine that churns out 450 HP and a peak torque of 430 Nm. Naturally, there is Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive doing business, distributing 40 % of the power to the front wheels and 60 to the rear via the 7-speed S-Tronic dual clutch transmission.

The RS5 can do a blisteringly quick 0-100 km/h sprint in 4.6 seconds. At 250 km/h the car hits an electronic wall, which owners can request Audi to break down, allowing them to reach the RS5's full potential of 280 km/h.
