2026 Audi RS5 Avant V6 Performance Vorsprung

A 2026 Audi RS5 Avant in the new plug-in hybrid form: a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 paired with an electric motor for 630 bhp and 824 lb-ft of torque, sent to all four wheels through an automatic gearbox. It is a significant step on from the old RS4/RS5 generation in both output and shove, with a claimed 3.6-second 0-62mph time and a 177 mph top speed. The car shown here has covered just 22 miles and is VAT qualifying.

This example is finished in Bedford Green, a far more distinctive choice than the usual grey or black, and is specified with the High Gloss Carbon exterior package and RS ceramic brakes. As a Performance Vorsprung car it sits at the top of the range, with four-zone climate control, a comfort package with heated and memory seats plus a heated steering wheel, darkened Matrix LED headlights with dynamic sequencing, and front and rear parking sensors.

With 22 miles on the clock and a 2026 (76) registration, this is effectively a delivery-mileage car. The plug-in hybrid system gives a quoted CO2 figure of 95 g/km, which keeps the fast-estate formula practical for everyday use while retaining genuine supercar-chasing pace.
