Sport automakers have ascended the auto industry’s ladder to become some of the most popular and consumer friendly in the whole world. Companies like BMW, Mazda, AUDI, Subaru, Honda, specifically, have etched its name in automotive lore by specializing in small, sporty, and quick cars that offer drivers not only a thrilling experience, but also top-notch efficiency and scalpel-like precision handling.
Every now and then, companies make a model for crazy petrol heads, who also happen to have a family and seek practicality too, cars capable of running along or outperforming even cars like Ferrari or Aston Martin.
These cars fly under the radar as no other. Today, we take a look at the 7 of the fastest sleeper vehicles, that can go faster than your daily driven project car.
1. Audi RS6
560HP / 4.0T L / 0-60 mph in 3.9 sec
So this is the new RS6 Avant, and the recipe remains pretty much the same as before. A big-engined version of the A6 Avant, all-wheel drive, auto ‘box. But the execution is different. Cleverer. A 4.0-litre V8 instead of a 5.0-litre V10. Better balance. More thoughtful deployment of resources. Now, the previous bi-turbo V10 was an excellent express train for mauling Das Autobahn, but tended towards the bloodless when attempting a corner (it required extreme conditions to really show you what it was capable of), and fuelling it was like tipping buckets of unleaded down a car-shaped storm drain. So this version attempts to deal with some of those issues.
