The Audi RS e-tron GT Perfomance is a 925 CV beast that you have to master

The coupé body is totally sporty, and the models that use it are designed to showcase the power and efficiency of this type of vehicle. In the case of the Audi RS e-tron GT Perfomance, we are looking at a car that delivers a spectacular 925 CV, has just arrived on the market and has become the flagship of the brand’s electric range.

The main feature of this model is the second electric motor fitted to the rear axle. It is a PSM motor with a new design that delivers a power output of 415 kW, equivalent to 564 CV. The weight of the rear motor has been reduced by about ten kg, which allows it to be used more efficiently in everyday driving.

With both motors working together, they reach power peaks of up to 680 kW, equivalent to an impressive 925 CV. Among the other features of the car, there is a charging system thanks to a more efficient deceleration system. The one-pedal system provides a better experience and allows you to discover the feeling of driving using just one foot, as the car decelerates immediately when you lift your foot off the accelerator.

Another feature introduced in this model is a cooling system that uses four different circuits, which operate independently but are interconnected to always achieve the best performance from each of them. These circuits provide cooling for the battery, the motors and the cabin, and can operate together or independently.

The battery has a capacity of 105 kWh, and its weight has also been reduced by about nine kg, using a new chemical management system that makes this power possible. In fact, when the Launch Control system is activated, up to 1,100 amps can flow through it, although the average is set at 400 amps.

Better driving

Driving is improved with the incorporation of the new air suspension with dual-chamber technology and two valves. A selective active suspension system is offered on each wheel, called Audi drive select. It has three driving profiles, efficiency, comfort and dynamic, as well as two further RS modes, RS1 and RS2. These modify parameters of the propulsion system, the suspension, the body height and the sound.

Finally, it also includes the RS Perfomance mode, designed for driving on a track as well as on mountain pass roads with many bends. It also modifies the traction control system, torque vectoring, suspension tuning, aerodynamics and cooling.

The care taken with the design and assembly of this model is noticeable when you sit behind the wheel and enjoy everything this car offers.

The price of the Audi RS e-tron GT Perfomance on the Spanish market is 166,900 euros. As for the other two versions, the Audi S e-tron has a selling price from 130,280 euros and the Audi RS e-tron GT starts at 153,830 euros.
