About the RS6 C7

The 2012 Audi RS6 C7 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,895 kg with 553 bhp, which works out at 292 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.79 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 433rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 34th quickest of the 261 Audis here. Its 121.9 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Audi RS6 C7 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
