Audi India has launched the 2013 RS5 coupe at Rs 95.28 lakh (ex-showroom, Maharashtra).

Under the bonnet of the 2013 Audi RS5 is the same 4.2-litre V8 engine mated to a 7-speed S-Tronic gearbox. The engine produces 456PS of maximum power at 8250rpm and 430 Nm of peak torque at 4000-6000rpm. The 2013 Audi RS5 can travel from 0 to 100kmph in a claimed 4.5 seconds.

On the exterior, the 2013 Audi RS5 gets a revised front grille and more pronounced bonnet styling. It also gets a new-look Audi signature DRLs and updated LED tail-lamps along with refreshed front and rear bumper designs. The RS5 also comes equipped with a sport exhaust system and 20-inch alloys.

Changes to the interiors include a Bang and Olufsen sound system, Bluetooth connectivity for the stereo, heated and cooled seats, and Audi’s Drive Select driving dynamic system.

“The new Audi RS 5 Coupe truly epitomizes progressiveness and is unmatched in terms of style, performance and driving dynamics designed to maximize the thrill of driving. The award winning Audi RS 5 just got better with its powerful V8 engine; the new Audi RS 5 Coupe offers superior performance with good fuel efficiency. With this introduction and after the launch of new Audi R8 V10 in January followed by the Audi R8 V10 plus in April, we now offer a wide range of performance cars in India. I am confident that the new Audi RS 5 Coupe will allow us to further consolidate our leadership position in the super sports car segment in India based on the genes of our twelve times Le Mans success,” added Michael Perschke, Head, Audi India.

The Audi RS5 will be imported as a CBU and will competes against the likes of the Jaguar XFR, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe and the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG.
