THE new Audi RS 7 Sportback is a true beast of a 5-door coupe – a sophisticated beast, but a beast nonetheless.
With a powerful 4-litre TFSI, V8 twin-turbo under the bonnet, its 600PS and 800Nm of torque can hurl you to 62mph in just 3.6 seconds while the hugely powerful brake system will ensure you have plenty of stopping power when needed.
