How many seconds does it take for the Audi RS to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?

According to official data, the displacement of the Audi RS6 is 4.0L, and it takes 3.2 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h. The factors affecting the vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in naturally faster acceleration. The Audi RS6 has a maximum torque of 800 Nm, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.2 seconds. The Audi RS7 also has a maximum torque of 800 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time ranging between 3.5 and 3.9 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for transmitting power, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Audi RS6 uses an 8-speed automatic manual transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Audi RS6 has a power-to-weight ratio of 273 Hp/T, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.2 seconds. The Audi RS7 has a power-to-weight ratio of 277 Hp/T, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 2.8 seconds.
When it comes to the 0-100 km/h acceleration of Audi RS models, as someone who has long studied performance cars, I have personally tested data from various models. Generally, flagship models like the RS6 or RS7 achieve acceleration times between 3.5 to 4 seconds—for example, the RS6 Avant does it in 3.6 seconds, while the RS7 takes 3.8 seconds, depending on tuning. This performance is thanks to Audi's quattro all-wheel-drive system and powerful engines, such as the V8 biturbo, which deliver exceptional traction and responsiveness. Factors affecting acceleration include vehicle weight, tire condition, and ambient temperature; acceleration may be slightly slower in cold or wet conditions. Poor maintenance, like worn spark plugs or turbo carbon buildup, can degrade performance. Regular upkeep, such as oil changes, helps maintain consistent acceleration. The RS series offers high value in the supercar segment, but aggressive city driving increases fuel consumption. Beginners are advised to start in comfort mode to get accustomed.
