The new Audi RS 5 is put to the test in Morocco

Following a successful world premiere, the Audi RS 5 has now shown off its dynamic driving in real-world conditions during its first drive in Morocco. On the Circuit de Marrakech and the winding roads of the Atlas Mountains, the first high-performance plug-in hybrid from Audi Sport showed what it’s made of: uncompromising performance, precision, and electrified athleticism that breaks the mold.

First drive in Morocco: Statements from Gernot Döllner and Rolf Michl on the new Audi RS 5

The new Audi RS 5 is Audi Sport’s first high-performance plug-in hybrid (PHEV) – with real RS DNA and the highly tuned hybrid technology to match. This sports car marks a bold new direction for Audi, pairing maximum performance with remarkable efficiency. For the first time at Audi Sport, the powertrain pairs a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 outputting 375 kW (510 PS) and a 130-kW electric motor. Global media gathered in Morocco to experience the A5 series’ flagship model in action for the first time. As well as bespoke RS sport suspension with twin-valve shock absorbers, the guests put the brand-new quattro drivetrain with Dynamic Torque Control – enabling electromechanical torque vectoring at the rear axle – through its paces in a first drive. Here are some of the key takeaways from Audi CEO Gernot Döllner, Product Line Manager Horst Hanschur, Audi Sport GmbH Managing Director Rolf Michl, and Steffen Bamberger, Head of Technical Development at Audi Sport GmbH.

The new Audi RS 5: high performance in a hybrid

The new Audi RS 5 is Audi Sport’s first high-performance plug-in hybrid (PHEV) – with real RS DNA and the highly-tuned hybrid-technology to match. Whether carving canyons, running highway marathons, or gliding through town on electric power – the RS 5 masters any situation with agility and impressive precision. It covers an extremely wide spread of driving dynamics – from comfortable every-day companion to potent performer. For the first time at Audi Sport, the powertrain pairs a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 outputting 375 kW (510 PS) and a 130 kW electric motor. They are joined by bespoke RS sport suspension with twin-valve shock absorbers and a completely new quattro drivetrain with Dynamic Torque Control, enabling electromechanical torque vectoring at the rear as a world first. The new center differential has a preload to always remain partially locked, managing longitudinal torque distribution. Transverse torque distribution at the rear is provided by a new differential that can shift torque between the wheels in milliseconds. The result: exceptionally agile, composed, and effortless driving.
