Performance Specs and Driving Dynamics
Performance dynamics in the RS 7 are managed by an array of specialized systems designed to maximize both cornering speed and driver feedback across any road surface. The standard RS-tuned sport suspension can be upgraded to the RS Dynamic Ride Control system, which replaces air springs with steel springs and hydraulic dampers for even more precise body control during high-speed maneuvers. The quattro® system features a specialized sport rear differential that can distribute torque between the rear wheels to actively rotate the car, providing a level of responsiveness that is rare in a full-size luxury coupe. Massive standard steel brakes or optional ceramic units provide immense and consistent stopping power, ensuring the RS 7 remains composed during high-performance Ontario driving.
