An insider has revealed that Audi plans to launch a RS6 Plus which will offer 610bhp.
The current RS6 is currently the most powerful estate ever, but still Audi wants to move the challenge up by selling a more powerful version. The news comes as a surprise. Indeed, recently Audi executives said in an interview with Car that the RS6 would be the last powerful Audi model. However, the German marque sold a RS6 Plus in the past with the former model. The RS6 Plus got a 30 bhp boost from 450 to 480bhp. The limited edition featured 19in wheels to replace the 18in on the normal version. 999 units were built.
The RS6 would also get a 30bhp boost increasing the power output from 580 to 610bhp. However, future buyers will have to wait until 2011 before driving it as the Plus model will be a way for Audi to celebrate the end of the current generation according to the sources.
