New Audi RS4 Avant, RS5 coupe and Sportback 2020 pricing and specs detailed: Mercedes-AMG C63 rivals rocket in

The RS4 Avant is back with a sharper look.

Audi Australia has confirmed pricing and full specification for the facelifted versions of the current-generation RS4 Avant wagon and RS5 coupe and Sportback liftback ahead of their showroom arrival on July 24.

The RS4 Avant is now $4629 cheaper, at $147,900 plus on-road costs, while the RS5 coupe and Sportback are still identically priced, now at $150,900, which is $6800 less than before.

The trio is still powered by a 331kW/600Nm 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine, which is mated to an eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission and a rear-biased version of Audi’s signature quattro all-wheel-drive system.

This combination helps the RS4 Avant sprint from a standstill to 100km/h in 4.1 seconds, while the RS5 coupe and Sportback and 0.2s quicker to triple digits. Either way, top speed is electronically limited to 250km/h.

Standard equipment is shared by all three models, including sports suspension, a rear limited-slip differential, a sports exhaust system with gloss-black oval tailpipes, metallic paintwork, Matrix LED headlights (with lasers for RS5 coupe and Sportback), auto-dimming side mirrors, 20-inch alloy wheels, red brake callipers, rear privacy glass and a hands-free power-operated tailgate (excluding RS5 coupe).




Inside, a 10.1-inch touchscreen multimedia system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, digital radio, a 755W Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system with 19 speakers, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a head-up display, a panoramic sunroof, a wireless smartphone charger, keyless entry and start, a sports steering wheel, sports seats with honeycomb stitching, power-adjustable front seats with heating and massaging, Nappa leather upholstery, gloss-black trim, stainless-steel pedals and illuminated scuff plates feature.

Advanced driver-assist systems extend to front and rear autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep and steering assist, adaptive cruise control with stop and go functionality, park assist, surround-view cameras, front and rear parking sensors, and tyre pressure monitoring.

The Mercedes-AMG C63 rivals are available with capped-price servicing, with three years costing $1950 and five $3050.

Justin’s dad chose to miss his birth because he wanted to watch Peter Brock hopefully win Bathurst, so it figures Justin grew up to have a car obsession, too – and don’t worry, his dad did turn up in time after some stern words from his mum. That said, despite loving cars and writing, Justin chose to pursue career paths that didn’t lend themselves to automotive journalism, before eventually ending up working as a computer technician. But that car itch just couldn’t be scratched by his chipped Volkswagen Golf R (Mk7), so he finally decided to give into the inevitable and study a Master of Journalism at the same time. And even with the long odds, Justin was lucky enough to land a full-time job as a motoring journalist soon after graduating and the rest, as they say, is history. These days, Justin happily finds himself working at CarsGuide during the biggest period of change yet for the automotive industry, which is perhaps the most exciting part of all. In case you’re wondering, Justin begrudgingly sold the Golf R (sans chip) and still has plans to buy his dream car, an E46 BMW M3 coupe (manual, of course), but he is in desperate need of a second car space – or maybe a third.
