Mind-blowing test results. Looks like the automotive industry is catapulting to unbelievable levels of performance. Me thinks it's time to start petitioning the gov't to raise speed limits substantially.

C/D TEST RESULTS:
Zero to 60 mph: 2.5 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 5.7 sec
Zero to 150 mph: 13.3 sec
Street start, 5-60 mph: 3.2 sec
Top gear, 30-50 mph: 1.9 sec
Top gear, 50-70 mph: 2.0 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 10.4 sec @ 135 mph
Top speed (redline ltd, mfr's claim): 202 mph
Braking, 70-0 mph: 144 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 1.01 g

Pretty ridiculous 0 to 60. Not sure if it's a new launch control but it's .5s quicker than the C&D tested aventador which is ~500lb heavier with 90 more hp. Also had a faster quarter mile as well.

two numbers stand out to me

0-100 = 5.7s
1/4 mile trap speed = 135

That's pretty nuts. I think in the near future acceleration will not be 0-60, more like 0-100 as the new benchmark.

[mkoesel]

Because traction.

Just preposterous achievements now. It can run down some super bikes I bet. Bananas.

Yep 0 to 60 is starting to become more about LC and AWD rather than relevant quickness in most situations. It's so commonly cited that I don't know if it will ever be replaced though. This car's 0 to 100 is ridiculous though.

Yes please

[dhoggm3]

Absolutely stunning.

So if the next M5 will have a V10 is this the next RS6 engine...

No way the next M5 will have a V10. They'll stick with a V8 - probably an updated S63 unless they decide to reset and do a small bore 4L like Audi and Mercedes have now. But even if the M5 did somehow get a V10, and even if Audi did follow suit and give the RS6 a V10 (they won't - they'll stick with the V8 too), it would be a new iteration of the 5.2L from last S6 and S8, not derived from the Lamborghini mill.

135 mph trap speeds... what in the world?

It was Scott26 who said it, not me

I believe it when I see it but clearly Audi has the weapon to respond should it come true, the Huracan has mind boggling performance.

They put that engine in the rs6 and it will be slower than the current one

The rs6 is fast as hell and is 1000 lbs heavier than this lambo

The rs6 engine is more powerful than this v10

Gotta link to that? I'm calling it right now - 0% chance. And I'll put money on that if anyone is interested.

Even if by some crazy chance some future high performance sedan from any manufacturer were to get a V10 engine (they won't though - not a single one ) it would be turbocharged for sure. And if you remember, Audi still has a 5.0L turbo V10 from the last generation RS6 that made 580 hp and is probably capable of much more than that considering the 4.0L turbo V8 can make nearly that much power today. So, they don't need the Huracan engine - they've got all the engine they need in that old V10 should the V8 prove to be inadequate any time soon (it won't ).

Check out comment #74.

"I have no idea if the M4 GTS will come to the USA or remain Europe and Asia only, I do know that a strategy exists for the car of which all details and schematics are not fully known just rumours still waiting to be confirmed along with the next M5 , M6 , returning to an all new V10"

Regarding use of the old V10. Have you ever seen a manufacturer like Audi or BMW pull a retired engine back into a brand new model?i don't think I have, it can't be common. Not saying you are wrong, it's all speculation but it sound even more unlikely than that they would used a de-tuned Huracan engine , maybe with FI. Most likely it's just all wishful thinking since V10s are my favorite engine type.

RS6? I'd be more interested in the R8's engine/performance! We already know it'll share the same platform as the Huracan. For $100k less than the Huracan the question is will Audi restrict the R8 or will they unleash its full potential so it can match the Huracan.

I'm comparing this thing to the 991 turbo s numbers.. It craps on it.

991 Turbo S Acceleration
Zero to 100 mph: 6.5 sec
Zero to 150 mph: 16.5 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 10.8 sec @ 126

Lambo Huracan
Zero to 100 mph: 5.7 sec
Zero to 150 mph: 13.3 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 10.4 sec @ 135


0-150 Over 3 seconds apart, that's huge. This thing is a beast.
