Here are first shots of the all-new Audi RS4 which will be ready until late 2017. The all-new Audi A4 is perhaps the most important car Audi has launched since 2010. Despite its compact class, it can do nearly everything the S-Class can. Everything that is, except to deliver performance. The S4 has been revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show but it will take another 18 months for the letter R to be added.

In fact, the RS4 will be shown at the next IAA, the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show that is almost two years away. In addition, production could start as late as 2018. Under the bonnet, the engine is a turbocharged V6. Audi has already revealed a single-turbo 3.0 TFSI with 354 hp for the S4. A second turbocharger should help increase the total output to around 420 to 450 horsepower. Linked to the Torsen differential will be a Tiptronic gearbox, meaning that Audi is likely to use the same 8-speed auto developed by ZF that can be found in the RS6, RS7 and S8.

The pace at which new RS models are launched seems much slower than their AMG equivalents. For example, the time gap between the C-Class Coupe and the C63 is almost imperceivable.
