End of the line for
Audi RS4
Audi clearly thinks you can have too much of a good thing: the
sensational RS4 saloon is now out of production.
The 414bhp V8-powered RS4 was unveiled at the Geneva motor show in
2005, and went on sale in the UK in October of that year.
It has been a big success for Audi not least with us here at
Autocar, who have fallen for its supercar pace and agility.
The saloon was joined in summer 2006 by the RS4 Avant and
cabriolet, both of which remain in production for the moment.
Though Audi hasn't admitted as much, RS4 production is being phased
out to make way for the forthcoming new RS6.
The RS6 is already in advanced testing. It's believed to use a
turbocharged 5.0-litre V10, and is expected to be unveiled at the
Frankfurt motor show in September.
