The RS acronym represents sportiness according to Aprilia. Motorcycles designed to amaze, thanks to innovations derived from a long and successful racing history that has formed, in Aprilia, a unique motorcycling culture in the world. Thus Aprilia has become the dream of entire generations, indulging the passion of younger riders with extraordinary bikes.At the same time, Aprilia was a protagonist in the racing world, dominating in the 2T categories and, after reaffirming its technological leadership by winning in SBK competitions, it also became a protagonist in MotoGP.Now Aprilia returns to the mission with which it was born, with a project dedicated to the new generations of motorcyclists, which brings together the knowledge built on tracks all over the world.Starting from 2020, the great success of the Aprilia RS 660 (the best-selling sports car in Europe) has revolutionized the world of medium-displacement sports cars, creating a new segment.The same winning formula is repeated with the Aprilia RS 457 which was born as a completely new project, designed and developed where all Aprilias are born, including those involved in MotoGP. The new Aprilia becomes the ideal link between the first 125 engines and the RS 660, and completes the RS family which reaches up to the powerful V4 superbikes and, in its maximum technological expression, the RS-GP, winner of GP in the MotoGP.The Aprilia RS 457 speaks the language of younger riders, of those who want to get closer to faired motorcycles, taking advantage of all Aprilia's knowledge in the design and construction of a true sports bike.A motorbike that has its strengths in its lightness, boasting the best possible weight-to-power ratio for a motorbike that can be driven with an A2 licence, in its ease of driving and in its technological equipment. RS 457 is designed to accompany the motorcyclist in his growth, both on the road and between the curbs of the track. The ergonomics are in fact characterized by the semi-handlebars mounted above the steering plate, a road sports solution to have the best compromise between sportiness and driving comfort.

More powerful and faster than any RS 6 and RS 7 to date: new Audi RS 6 Avant performance and the RS 7 Sportback performance are bursting with extras that sharpen the models’ appearance and make for a more emotive driving experience. The potent 4.0-liter V8 biturbo TFSI engine now has an engine power of 463 kW (630 PS) and a maximum torque of 850 Nm. From December 8, the RS 6 Avant performance and the RS 7 Sportback performance1 are available for 135,000 euros each.At Audi, ‘performance’ means more power.

This means a total increase in power from 441 kW (600 PS) to 463 kW (630 PS) and in maximum torque from 800 to 850 Nm. The performance models3 sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds, 0.2 seconds faster than the RS 6 / RS 7 base versions.Yet less is sometimes more: reduced insulation between the engine compartment, the interior, and the rear of the vehicle ensures the RS 6 Avant performance and the RS 7 Sportback performance1 will thrill customers with an exciting, next-level sound experience – the reduction also makes the car eight kilograms lighter.
