Audi’s Unleashing a Limited-Edition RS4 Avant Beast to Celebrate 25 Years of Wagon Power
As a nod to the iconic RS4 Sport (B5), the RS 4 Avant edition 25 years comes in the legendary Imola Yellow paint job. If yellow’s not your thing, Nardo Gray and Mythos Black are also available.
Gearheads, get ready to drool! Audi’s paying tribute to the legendary RS4 Avant with a super limited-edition version – the RS 4 Avant edition 25 years. This isn’t your average grocery-getter; it’s a high-performance wagon built to turn heads and rip up the road.
Serious Power Under the Hood
Forget wimpy engines – this beast boasts a pumped-up V6 biturbo that cranks out a whopping 470 horsepower (346 kW) and 600 Nm of torque. That’s 20 more horses than the standard RS4 Avant, meaning you’ll launch from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a mind-blowing 3.7 seconds and hit a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). Plus, the RS sport exhaust lets everyone know you mean business with its deep, throaty growl.
Handles Like a Dream
The RS 4 Avant edition 25 years isn’t all about brute force. It comes with a special RS sport suspension that you can adjust yourself to find the perfect balance between sporty handling and a comfortable ride. It sits 10 millimetres lower than the standard model, and you can even lower it another 10 mm for an extra-sleek look. The fancy quattro sport differential helps the car handle like a dream, especially when you’re pushing it in dynamic mode. Upgraded software in the transmission means faster gear changes and a wider range of driving modes, so you can take it easy on errands or unleash its full potential on the track.
Grippy Tires for Any Adventure
Standard tyres are high-performance Pirelli P Zero Corsas, designed to be awesome on both the road and the racetrack. They’re wrapped around stylish 20-inch alloy wheels in a cool Palladium matte finish. Want to dominate the track? Audi’s got you covered with an exclusive package that includes a second set of wheels with super-sticky Pirelli P Zero Trofeo RS tyres. These tyres come with a fancy phone app (that works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto) that tells you all about your tyre pressure and temperature in real, so you can squeeze out every last bit of performance. To complete the track-ready look, you even get a pair of custom-designed Alpinestars gloves with yellow accents to match the car.
A Design That Shouts “Heritage”
As a nod to the iconic RS4 Sport (B5), the RS 4 Avant edition 25 years comes in the legendary Imola Yellow paint job. If yellow’s not your thing, Nardo Gray and Mythos Black are also available. Exclusive design touches make this car stand out. Black trim accents the windows and taillights, while the Audi rings and lettering get a gloss black treatment. The Matrix LED headlights with darkened bezels look mean, and the removal of the roof rails creates a sleek, sporty silhouette. Tinted rear windows keep things private, and a unique “RS 4 edition 25 years” inscription marks the windows between the C and D-pillars. An optional Carbon matte appearance package lets you add some aggressive style with front blades, side flaps, and sill extensions, all made from lightweight carbon fibre.
Interior Inspired by Racing Spirit
Step inside, and you’ll find an interior that pays homage to the 2001 RS4 Sport with yellow stitching that echoes the classic black and yellow leather-Alcantara combo. The floor mats boast a unique RS 4 logo, and the Audi Sport rhombus and RS lettering get a special yellow treatment for this edition. The steering wheel rim, door armrests, centre console (wrapped in dark black Alcantara), and gear shifter all feature matching yellow stitching. The RS bucket seats are comfy and supportive, with honeycomb stitching and a carbon fibre backrest. They’re upholstered in a luxurious deep black leather and Dinamica combination with contrasting yellow stitching. The RS 4 lettering is embroidered just below the headrest, and white logos light up on the entry sills when you open the doors.
A cool detail is the matte lettering on the centre console that displays the car’s unique sequential number – there are only 250 of these beauties being made, so each one is truly special. Want an extra hit of nostalgia? You can opt for a special Alcantara flat-bottom steering wheel with a yellow centre marking, just like the original Audi Avant RS2.
Limited Edition Timepiece Too!
To truly celebrate 25 years of RS4 Avant awesomeness, Audi’s even releasing a limited-edition chronograph watch that matches the car’s design. It’s a collector’s dream for any Audi enthusiast!
