Fans of Audi car hire may be interested in the latest news regarding the marque's high-performance RS5 Coupe.

Audi has released full specifications of the vehicle, which is set to be available to UK motorists later this year.

The car features a redeveloped quattro drivetrain and Audi-developed drive select technology to ensure it is able to perform to the peak of its potential.

New quattro improvements have been put in place to make sure the ride is improved and motorists can take advantage of the car's responsive handling.

Meanwhile, drive select allows the driver to choose between comfort, auto and dynamic modes, adjusting the car's steering weighting, gear-shift points, sport differential and engine system at the push of a button.

It also gives motorists the opportunity to change the sound of the exhaust by giving them control of the system's throttle valves and sound flaps.

Performance-wise the RS5 doesn't disappoint, capable of 62mph from standstill in just 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 155mph.

The RS5 is being unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show.
