hi!can anyone tell me what is maximum speed of audi Rs6 c6 with no limiter?and why it's said quattro slows down speed!thanks

300+ Km/h and there is more power lost in a Quattro drivetrain.

ya!i know this,i've listened this but i can't understand why it looses power?and rwd doesn't?can you explain please?

Every drivetrain loose power down the way.
But because the power have 4 ways to go instead of 2 there is more lost of power in the drivetrain.

In a non technical way ... more bits to spin equals more drag .. so energy is needed to spin the bits

well, as people have chimed in, it's a simple question of physics, quattro is an active four wheel drive system and as the car moves faster, the power required to move all four wheels increases not linearly but exponentially.

Beeeeeeutifully Duck!
A stock rs6 loses about 40hp thru the drivetrain alledgedly. (All the more reason for shoving as many in as you can!!!)

Only a civil engineer, not a mechanical one, but I'm pretty sure the drag from the driveline does in fact increase linearly, not exponentially. Aero drag, on the other hand, does. Anyone back me up on this or am I off?

So the quattro, not insignificantly, has twice the driveline drag of a RWD car. But oh so much better in the wet.

If the wimwam on the end of the giggling pin sheers, then the tickling swage will not work and the linear gas modulator will implode causing a malfunction in the trouser department.:vhmmm:

The poor man asked a simple question, he is not doing a paper on quantum physics.:doh: :doh:

It really is simple, It takes more power to drive 4 wheels than 2.:revs:
