The Audi RS2 Avant, a legendary performance wagon, was born from a collaboration between Audi and Porsche. Launched in 1994, it marked the first foray into the high-performance "RS" designation for Audi, which would later become synonymous with their most potent models. Built on the platform of the Audi 80 Avant, the RS2 was a wolf in sheep's clothing, offering blistering performance hidden within a seemingly understated exterior. Underneath the modest bodywork lay a turbocharged 2.2-liter 5-cylinder engine, tuned by Porsche, producing a potent 315 horsepower and 309 lb-ft of torque. This allowed the RS2 to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a remarkable 4.8 seconds, making it one of the fastest wagons of its era. Furthermore, its performance was complemented by a robust quattro all-wheel-drive system, massive 17-inch wheels with high-performance tires, and a high-performance braking system.
The RS2 Avant was a limited-production model, with only 2,891 units produced between 1994 and 1995. This rarity, coupled with its impressive performance and unique character, has solidified its status as a highly sought-after collector's car. The RS2 Avant stands as a testament to Audi's commitment to performance and innovation, laying the groundwork for the subsequent generations of RS models that have become icons in the automotive world. The car's blend of practicality, performance, and exclusivity has captured the hearts of enthusiasts for decades, leaving an enduring legacy in the history of high-performance wagons.
