The engine

4.0 TFSI

Twin-Turbo V8 quattro

The same hot-vee twin-turbo V8 in full RS trim, pairing a thunderous mid-range with quattro traction for genuine supercar-rivaling pace from a four-door.

Co-developed by Audi and Bentley, this 4.0 TFSI is a VW Group cornerstone engine also found in Porsche and Lamborghini-adjacent applications, here driving the RS7 through quattro all-wheel drive.

The turbochargers live in the valley of the V, a layout that keeps the engine compact and responsive.
Cylinder-on-demand can deactivate half the cylinders during cruising for efficiency.
Performance versions of this engine help cars like the RS7 reach 60 mph in the low-three-second range.
