After a while ago we got to know the interpretation of the ABT Sportsline of the Audi RS6 Avant, today we bring you the ABT RS4-S , the peppered version of the already sporty Audi RS4 Avant.
Aesthetically, the ABT RS4-S presents itself with an even more aggressive look as a result of an extensive aerodynamic package with several carbon fiber components and eye-catching 21” wheels.
Inside, we find the ABT Sportsline and “RS4-S” logos all over the place so that no one forgets that they are not in control of a “simple” RS4 Avant. For an extra fee, it is even possible to “fill” the interior of the RS4-S with carbon fiber details that extend from the steering wheel to the back of the seats.
And mechanics?
Yes, let's get down to business. If in the aesthetic chapter the ABT RS4-S is already surprising, it is in the field of mechanics that the van prepared by ABT Sportsline stands out the most.

In this way, the 2.9 V6 twin-turbo received an ABT engine control unit and saw power rise to 510 hp and torque to 660 Nm, 60 hp and 60 Nm more than in the series model, which allowed for a reduction the time from 0 to 100 km/h for 3.9s (against the original 4.1s).
Does it seem like little? For those who 510 hp is not enough and want (even) more power, ABT Sportsline offers the ABT Power S that allows you to increase power to 530 hp and torque to 680 Nm (+20 hp and 20 Nm). Also optional is the possibility of delimiting the maximum speed so that it is fixed at 300 km/h.
In addition to the increased power, the ABT RS4-S also received a new stainless steel exhaust system with four carbon fiber outlets, each 102 mm in diameter. Another new feature is the adoption of a height-adjustable suspension, new stabilizer bars both at the rear and at the front and the possibility of equipping the RS4-S with a coilover suspension kit.
