Top 10 Cars of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show

5. 2014 Audi RS7

Powering to 60 mph in less than 3.9 seconds, the 2014 Audi RS7 has a ridiculous 553 lb-ft torque rating at 1750 rpm. The body is styled with an almost excessive number of carbon fiber pieces, but in this case it works to further the car’s aggressive look.

It’s the same story with the cabin where surfaces finished in carbon fiber almost feel more common any other material.

Audi’s 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 makes plenty of power, but the brand also says it expects the car to average 24 mpg thanks in no small part to cylinder deactivation. Gas saving properties garnered by the ability to use half that engine will be helped further by the car’s especially tall eighth gear in its automatic transmission.
