The future Audi RS7 is already the victim of renders following the arrival of the new RS6

It is very common for models of similar size within a brand to make use of quite similar features. Audi has always been characterised by following a series of design patterns through which it has been able to create vehicles that are different yet equally similar. This same formula remains in place today, which is why some fans of the brand with the four rings have decided to bring the future Audi RS7 to life. Thanks to the arrival of the new RS6, the task of conceiving the future four-door super sports car has been much simpler.

The second generation of the Audi RS7 is already being developed at full speed so that it can reach the market as soon as possible, and thus take on models such as the Porsche Panamera or the Mercedes-AMG GT 63s four-door. However, and despite the test mules running at full speed around the Green Hell circuit, the German manufacturer has yet to make any statement on the matter.

With the new design language for the RS family now available, Audi only needs to reveal the next member. The RS7 has always stood out for its sharp design as well as its robust and powerful mechanicals. The latter’s underpinnings are shared with the RS6, so it would come as no surprise if this same formula were applied to this next generation.

Thanks to this render courtesy of Carlifestyle, we can get a fairly good idea of what the second generation of the Audi RS7 will look like. As with the new RS6, very sharp and crisp lines have been used, seeking to showcase the unprecedented aggressiveness that the RS badge confers. The front bumper, flanked by two grotesque air intakes, fits perfectly with the wheels designed specifically for this variant.

Under the bonnet of this Audi RS7 we will find a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 capable of producing 600 CV and 800 Nm of torque. Thanks to this powerplant, the sports saloon will be able to reach 100 km/h in approximately 3.6 seconds, a figure accompanied by an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h.

For now we can only dream of the RS7, a model that remains in the shadows until further notice. Audi has yet to make any statement regarding the launch of this car, but we can expect that it will be at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show that the German house sheds some light on its launch.
