Max Verstappen drives Audis whenever he isn’t racing a Formula 1 car. The four-time F1 World Champion was recently spotted driving an ABT Audi RSQ8 Legacy Edition in Monaco.
As you may have guessed, the RSQ8 Legacy Edition by ABT Sportline is not a regular RSQ8. Limited to just 125 units, it is not only more exclusive but also packs a greater punch than the standard model.
The 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine has been tuned to produce 760 hp and 723 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The increased performance is a result of specific modifications, including a tweaked engine management system, a new intercooler and a stainless steel performance exhaust. ABT has also re-tuned the air suspension and electronic roll stabilisers.
ABT has also given the RSQ8 Legacy Edition an aggressive body kit, which includes a carbon fibre front splitter, side skirts, a rear diffuser and spoiler.
The SUV gets a carbon fibre grille surround, carbon louvres on the hood and carbon inserts on the fenders. It rides on bigger wheels wrapped in skinnier tires.
Max Verstappen also has an ABT Audi RS6 in a similar specification.
