The 2018 Audi RS5 is one svelte-looking coupe. The front features the prominent Audi hexagonal grille, sharp headlamps with striking DRL elements, and restyled bumpers with larges intakes. There are larger fenders and alloy wheels on the side, plus oval twin-exhaust pipes and rear diffuser at the back to differentiate this RS5 from the standard A5.

The interior of the 2018 Audi RS5 is almost similar to that of the A5 Coupe, save for the “RS” monikers, RS performance steering wheel, and contrast stitching. As you can expect, the cabin trim and materials are top drawer stuff, while fit and finish is just as impressive. The gadgets and toys are plentiful as well, and so is the list of standard safety kit.

Powering the 2018 Audi RS5 is an all-new 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged six-cylinder that meats out 450 HP and a healthy 600 Nm of twisting force. Tasked to handle the power is an 8-speed ZF transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive system. Armed with the optional Dynamic Package, the new 2018 RS5 can hit a top speed of 280 km/h, while the ton mark is breached in 4 seconds.
