Audi RS6 Avant Plus: 613 CV, e poi?

Dopo la già esagerata RS6 Avant, Audi sembra aver deciso di intraprendere la strada in solitaria verso quota 1000 CV. Ovviamente stiamo scherzando (almeno per ora…), ma viste le avvisaglie pare che Ingolstadt abbia tutte le intenzioni di staccare decisamente i rivali di Mercedes e BMW nella...
