Audi RS5 Sportback listed on the website. EDIT: Launched at Rs. 1.04 crore

Mod Note: Our Audi RS5 Sportback Review has been taken live at this link. Please continue the discussion over on the new thread. Thanks!

Audi has listed the RS5 Sportback on their Indian website. The car is a 4-door sedan with a coupe-like body style. It features a sportier design when compared to the A5 Sportback and the S5 Sportback models. On the inside, it comes with MMI touch technology with a large central screen.

Powering the RS5 Sportback is a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 engine producing 444 BHP and 600 Nm. The engine is paired to an 8-speed and an all-wheel-drive system. The 0-100 km/h time is claimed to be 3.9 seconds and the top speed is 250 km/h.

Earlier this year, Audi launched the S5 Sportback in India. The 3.0-litre turbocharged V6 engine in this car produces 349 BHP and 500 Nm.

The RS5 coupe didn't find many takers, I am not sure if the sportsback will find many more.
Coupes have sadly become a dying breed in our market's CBU offerings. I would presume that one of the reasons a person would stretch from a S5 sportback to RS5 would be for it's coupe form.

Just visited the Audi IN website and the RS5 Sportback is gone!
Is this a joke Audi?

Looks like they are bringing the sportback version just like the S5. I learnt that it will be launched for around 1.2 Cr.. Would pick the E53 anyday over this given india context.

Introductory or not, the pricing isn't too bad considering the previous gen RS5 launched nearly a decade ago costed close to this when fully loaded.It was 75 ex-showroom but with even minimal loadings it was 90L+
I just hope Audi is giving decent loadings standard or this price is just an eye wash.

There seems to be no options, currently at least on their web portal which is otherwise update. Looks, they have some pre-configured cars, on pattern of M340 but as CBU. They might have negotiated a bulk order with HQ and got these under 40K USD to qualify for lower duties.

Edit - Just checked, these are indeed pre-configured models. No options!

Audi RS5 Sportback driven on the NATRAX.

Quote:
The claimed 0-100kmph time is 3.9 seconds and, on the wet track, with our VBOX strapped on, we got 0-100kmph in 4.03 seconds.
- 160kmph takes 9.24s.
- 200kmph takes 14.77s.
