1980 ... Audi for the first time shows its new coupe, which was named Quattro. The car with the four rings on the hood made "four"? But it was a little harder - Quattro here indicates the presence of permanent all-wheel drive. Premiere Audi Quattro was a real turning point in the history of the company. It is thanks to her Audi broke into the world of motor sport (and in those days, success in the rally meant a lot), and proved the effectiveness of all wheel drive ..

And today at the Frankfurt Motor Show the Germans introduced a new version of the Quattro. However, prior to serial car is still far away - in front of us the concept. But after talking with the engineers of Audi becomes clear that this machine may soon go into mass production, and - just need to get a "odobryams" on the board. And it is not excluded that the Audi Sport Quattro (and the new machine has such a name) will be available in the version that is shown in the cabin.

And then it will be a blast. Not only because of appearance. Technical filling this model is striking. It was Audi Sport Quattro is the most powerful Audi in the history (of course, we do not take into account the specially prepared racing car). After all, there is hidden under the hood of a turbocharged 4.0 liter V8 that produces 560 hp (By the way, is the engine of the Bentley). But that's not all - along with a gasoline engine and an electric motor works, and he has another 110 kW (or about 150 hp). As a result, the total power of motors is already 700 hp and maximum torque is at 800 N ∙ m

The choice of buyers will be offered three modes of propulsion: EV, Hybrid and Sport. In the first case supercar generally will not pollute the air, well, and in Sport mode motors will work with maximum efficiency. And then the machine will dial the first "hundred" in just 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 305 km / h Which is true fuel consumption at active driving in the Audi are not reported. But in the average fuel economy mode is only 2.5 l ... Such indicators have achieved not only by the electric motor - petrol V8 has the function to turn off half the cylinders. It helps in saving and navigation, which paves the default route so that the machine is to spend as little fuel.
