Audi is featuring a number of vehicles at the show, including the TT RS, the V10-engined R8 and the previously revealed A1 Sportback concept car. But the star of the show will almost certainly be the Q5 Custom Concept, a new sporty version of the baby-SUV prepared by the Audi engineers specifically for the Wörthersee Tour. And a number of modifications have been made to give the car its new look.
The Q5 Custom Concept features an exterior paint colour called Daytona Gray, Some red paint applications were made on the rims, the roof rails, the front skirt and the rear spoiler. Other features include matt rolls on 21-inch wheels of 7 twin-spoke design, a new track widened by 90 millimeters (3.54 in) and a new height, lowered by 60 millimeters.
Under the hood Audi has seen fit to take the Q5's standard 3.0L TFSI V6 engine and give it some much needed upgrades. While the stock Q5's V6 churns out a healthy 333hp (245kW), the Q5 custom concept has a much sportier 408hp (300kW), leading to some massive gains in its straight line performance - the sprint to 62mph is dispensed with in just 4.4 seconds. The upgraded power rating comes from a modified air intake and a cooling water strut brace in the engine compartment, helping engineers eek more power out of the supercharged unit.
Some features and equipment include the rear view parking assistant camera, S Line sports seats, stainless steel-plated pedals and voice control.
