Audi Quattro Concept
In this handsome embodies all the latest developments at Audi. Michele Glaze has similar goals. In particular, used "truck" recently released in the light of the four-supercompartment Audi RS5. But this is not just another improved on all counts "truck", and a real revolution for the whole family quattro: RS5 send the "iron" Torsen center differential to retire! And replaced it with a multi-disc clutch is partially lockable (running out) by a system of gears with special tooth geometry. Therefore, the new center differential Audi is called the differential with the ring gear. It allows you to distribute torque between the axles in a slightly larger range than the Torsen: Up to 80% back to 75% ahead. And while it smaller and in two times lighter. Also, as in the RS5.
there is a "sport differential": electronically controlled clutch on the rear axis, redistributive point between the rear wheels. And the function freezes unloaded cornering wheel Torque Vectoring. So the Audi quattro concept – a serious shot. And by the way, strictly double. But the thought of its developers did not stop.
Volume of 2,5 liter turbo direct-injection TFS1 came here from the Audi tt rs (although RS5 aspirated 4.2 liter V8). The "donor" tt rs this the engine is transversely. And here it is placed along. This was done because it is quite compact and largely still do it, how to stand! But at the modest size it produces 408 hp and 480 Nm of torque. And with 6-speed manual transmission it is able to "shoot Audi quattro concept from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.9 sec.
