The incredibly capable performance sportback re-defines the refined and luxurious sport coupé as class-leading power-house with the ability to outperform many supercars. Aesthetic design, advanced technology and impressive performance in a sporty five-door coupé are the result of combining the many innovative strengths of leading auto manufacturers to produce a sport coupé like none before. A Style Of Its Own One sport coupe has a uniquely, striking appearance. The high-gloss black radiator grille with honeycomb structure is bordered by a matt aluminium-look frame and features an air intake funnel. Twenty one-inch forged aluminium wheels in a 5-spoke blade design come as standard with the performance sport coupé and are available in two variants. LED headlights with darkened surrounds help to differentiate the front end while the darkened housing of the LED rear lights accentuates the distinctive looks. These lights give this sport coupé a fascinating athletic character. A pop-up rear spoiler is also included on the boot lid of the sport coupé and the large oval tailpipe trims of the dual-branch exhaust system aims to impress. The interior front sport seats offer excellent lateral support and feature integrated head restraints with embossing in the backrests. The standard leather seat upholstery continues the exterior aesthetic with honeycomb quilting in the seat centre panels. The instrument cluster with black dials, red needles and white scales accentuate the high-quality feel and sporty virtues of this sportback. Gear, boost pressure and oil temperature, digital speedometer, lap timer and shift light are displayed on a driver information system. The luxurious design of this sport coupé is completed with a leather-covered multifunction sport steering wheel with aluminium look shift paddles and easy-grip contours. Unbelievable Power This sport coupé is rigorously dynamic and of the highest calibre. The unbelievable power and everyday practicality of the class-leading performance, five-door, sport coupé is totally unmatched. The twin-turbo V8 displays incredible, elegant power, with 412 kW on tap, which in conjunction with the impressive 700 Nm of torque make for remarkable performance. The engine management and an un-throttled intake system contribute to the dynamic character of this twin-turbo V8. At its heart this revolutionary sportback conveys a passion for performance with an acceleration of 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds - placing it neatly on a par with the very best supercars. The twin turbochargers provide high engine power and enormous torque yet this sport coupé achieves a combined fuel consumption which remains a modest, combined cycle of 9.8 litres per 100km. Much of this top value is due in part to ground-breaking efficiency technologies such as the standard start-stop system, innovative thermal management and the cylinder-on-demand system. Supercar Agility A core component of the drivetrain in the five-door sport coupé is the self-locking centre differential in combination with wheel-selective torque control. The drive torque is split asymmetrically between the front and rear axle to promote impressive, dynamic handling. This allows the drive force to be distributed individually to each wheel as the driving situation dictates. A standard, sport differential enables the vehicle to turn into corners even more spontaneously and directly for a tangible increase in driving pleasure. As singular in performance and handling as it is in comfort and design, this re-imagined five-door coupé is the perfect union of cutting-edge style, fascinating power and innovative technology. A testament to the levels of automotive perfection achievable only to the most pioneering of auto manufacturers, the performance sportback is a car like no other.
