Audi has launched the R S 5 Coupé in India, priced at Rs. 76 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The R S 5 Coupé is powered by a 4.2 liter FSI V8 motor which produces 450 hp of power at 8,250 rpm, and peak torque of 430 Nm between 4,000 and 6,000 rpm. . What this translates into is a 0 – 100 kmph time of just 4.6 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 280 kmph. Mated to a seven-speed S tronic shift, the dual-clutch transmission enables gear shifts to be executed in a few hundredths of a second.
