Well they didn't say how much under 6 sec. It could be as high as 5.9 or low as 5.1 for all we know! I'm guessing around 5.5 on average.

The new S5 will do 0-100 Km/h in ±5.5 sec's.

One thing is for sure , S5 won't have only 360 hp but a lot more. The output should be around 380-390 hp.
RS5 will have between 450-480 either it will be from a new V8 (4.6 lt perhaps) or a V10.

I'm guessing around 370HP, no more, no less!

Ingolstadt has finally started making some driver-focused cars and the S5 could be the next to wow enthusiasts. It will be powered by the company's 4.2-litre V8 mounted up front, driving all four wheels through Audi's quattro system for peerless traction.

The interior shot on the next page makes clear there's a six-speed manual gearbox on offer, and the redline is pegged to a pleasingly high 7000rpm. Power is put at 340bhp, so expect a 0-60mph dash in less than 6.0sec.

Let's just hope it's as good going around corners as it is at hammering along the straights... - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER 3 of 4

The S5 will have a 4.2 litre V8 FSI Valve-lift engine with 385-400 hp IMHO.

But the main question will be: how much will a S5 weigh.(1600+ ?)

i think it's only logical for the s5 to have 400hp, if not 420hp. i assume the engine that's goin into the s5 is the same as the new s4. and the s4 's power grew from 250 to 340, s6 grew from 340 to 430 (not sure about the exact number). so it's logical that with each new generation, the power will increase by around 90hp. i think the chance for s5 to get only 350-60hp is very slim.

I will die laughing if S5 turns to have same HP output as current S4.

While Audi fans will get fatal hearth attacks.

True So True!!
Personally I couldn't care less if the S5 had a 1.3 diesel engine with 10BHP..
(because it's an S)

But the overall image will be ruined if the S will have the old S4 engine..
It's just wrong and stupid!
