Audi RS5 Coupe looking mean in green

This is the 2018 Audi RS5 Coupe.

It's a significant upgrade over the previous RS5, which first hit roads in 2013.

This new one does away with its predecessor's V8, swapping down to a twin-turbo V6.   

But don't fret, because the horsepower stays the same at 444, but the torque is way up to 443 pound-feet. 

The 0 - 60 sprint takes place in just 3.7 seconds, making it quicker than BMW's M4 or the Mercedes-AMG C63 S. 

And with a 21-mpg combined figure, the new RS5 is far more efficient than before. 

But of course it's the performance that's really worth getting excited about...

...and the look, especially in this green. 

But that doesn't mean it's not practical!

The Audi RS5 hits dealerships in spring of 2018. Starting price is $69,990.
