What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the RS7?
1 Answers
According to official data, the RS7 comes with a 4.0T engine displacement and achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.6 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, indicates how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, naturally resulting in faster acceleration. For example, the BMW 5 Series has a maximum torque of 290 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.8 seconds. In contrast, the RS7 has a torque of 800 Nm and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.6 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The RS7 is equipped with a manual-automatic transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (measured in Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. For instance, the BMW 5 Series has a power-to-weight ratio of 106 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.8 seconds. The RS7, with a power-to-weight ratio of 278 Hp/T, achieves 0-100 km/h in 3.66 seconds.
