Information:
The Pikes Peak quattro uses a twin-turbocharged 4.2 L Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) V8 engine. This develops 368 kW (500 PS; 493 bhp) and 630 N·m (465 ft·lbf) of torque from 2000 rpm, and features DOHC (two per cylinder bank) with 5 valves per cylinder.
Engine output is transmitted through a 6-speed tiptronic automatic transmission, complete with steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. quattro permanent four wheel drive system is also standard.
Acceleration is 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.7 seconds, while the top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).
The Pikes Peak quattro is well-suited for off-road use with its high ride height, adaptive air suspension, quattro permanent four wheel drive, and power rack and pinion steering.
