In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the debut of the quattro, Audi is presenting a show car at the 2010 Paris Motor Show that moves a futuristic interpretation of this concept into the fast lane: the Audi quattro Concept, a thoroughbred driving machine with 300 kW (408 hp), five-cylinder turbocharged engine, a lightweight body and - of course - the latest generation of quattro permanent all-wheel drive.
In another move that benefits the vehicle's weight, the eight-cylinder engine from the production model has been replaced under the hood by a
turbocharged, inline five-cylinder engine that can trace its roots back to another Audi sports car - the TT RS. In the Audi quattro Concept, the
longitudinal FSI turbo produces 300 kW (408 hp) and accelerates the car from
0 to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in only
3.9 seconds. Torque is distributed as needed via a six-speed manual transmission.
