If any of you in the greater Charlotte area happened to pick up the December 2012 issue of Men's Journal, you may have noticed that the automotive category contained the Audi RS 5. That's right, this sleek and sporty model offers drivers a luxurious experience and is gaining the time in the spotlight that it certainly deserves. At Audi of Charlotte we are excited to uncover the details that made this a top pick to receive the "Gear of the Year' award.
The Audi RS 5 offers drivers a powerful 4.2-liter V8 engine that delivers 450 horsepower to accelerate the vehicle from 0-60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. It also has a combined fuel economy of 22 miles per gallon. Other features include Audi Quattro all-wheel drive, RS sport suspensions, and iPod integration capability.
It is pretty easy to see why experts at Men's Journal chose the RS 5 among hundreds of other models it considered. It's the perfect balance of efficiency and power that lends itself to a smooth and enjoyable driving experience.
In response to recognition received, Scott Keogh the President of Audi of America explains, "Consumers are clearly responding to the outstanding performance, elegant styling and athletic identity of the Audi RS 5. Nearly all RS 5 models have already sold since it was introduced in August of this year."1
