Audi have teamed up with Sky Sports as the official sponsor of Formula 1 on Sky Sports. To mark the partnership, we're celebrating the performance features of our RS range.

Carbon fibre

Used in performance cars for its outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, carbon fibre is a lightweight, robust material that easily withstands the tremendous forces placed upon it. It also brings an irresistible sporty look.

Features of the carbon trims

Carbon roof
A carbon roof is lighter than a panoramic glass roof, therefore enhancing performance through greater speed and longer range.
Forged carbon air intakes
The reduced weight of the air intakes contributes to a better power-to-weight ratio, improving acceleration and handling.
Forged carbon rear diffuser
Forged carbon rear diffusers improve a vehicle's aerodynamics by managing airflow, creating downforce, and reducing drag.
Forged carbon door inlays
Forged carbon is used in door inlays for its aesthetic appeal and durability, able to withstand the stresses of daily use.

Optional RS ceramic brake system

Performance and heat dissipation
Ceramic brakes maintain their effectiveness at high temperatures, reducing the risk of brake fade and ensuring reliable braking.
Extended lifespan
Ceramic brakes are known for their durability and can last significantly longer than traditional steel brakes.
Reduced weight
Ceramic brakes are lighter than steel contributing increased acceleration and improved handling by reducing unsprung weight.
Reduced brake dust
Ceramic brakes produce less brake dust compared to steel, keeping wheels cleaner and reducing the need for frequent cleaning.
