  • Tailored Audi RS Q8 Legacy Edition by ABT Individual

    Tailored Audi RS Q8 Legacy Edition by ABT Individual

    For those who thought with the launch of the recently introduced ABT RSQ8 Legacy Edition, one of the most popular Audi SUVs, couldn’t get even more exclusive, they have not considered the design specialists from ABT. They have crowned the SUV flagship with an ABT Individual interior package.

    “From the RSQ8-S to the RSQ8-R and the RSQ8 Signature Edition, we have continuously developed the potential of this outstanding vehicle. With the ABT RSQ8-LE, we are completing our Legacy Edition series, which already includes the RS6-LE and RS7-LE. Our RSQ8 customers value the special, the extraordinary. This is the very reason why we pulled out all the stops when developing the customised interior for this vehicle,” explains Hans-Jürgen Abt.

    The refinement options of the ABT Individual interior programme are almost endless: from high-quality leather and the finest Alcantara to exclusive Dinamica – the choice extends across countless colour nuances and material combinations- every element can be tailored individually.

    “Our RSQ8 customers value the special, the extraordinary.”, says CEO of the ABT Group Hans-Jürgen Abt

    In case of the RSQ8-LE, the driver is immersed in an elegantly progressive ambience in classic Racing Green, a colour that has its roots in motorsport and lends the vehicle a historical depth. This historical reference is interpreted in a modern way by the linear quilting pattern designed exclusively for the RSQ8-LE, which elegantly extends across numerous interior elements such as the seats, door panels and headlining through to the floor matsand trunk mat. This design is complemented by further details trimmed in leather or Alcantara, including the steering wheel with perforated 12 o’clock marking and contrasting colour underlay, as well as the steering wheel hub and steering wheel cap. The centre console, including gearshift bag, gear knob cap and armrest, is also finished in high-quality leather. A harmonious contrast is provided by the shift paddles, dashboard and seat frame trims finished in matt visible carbon fibre. On the exterior, accents such as the limited edition badge on the mudguard provide stylish highlights.

    The technical attributes remain as impressive as before: 760 hp and 980 Nm of torque catapult the luxury SUV into a performance league of its own. The sophisticated ABT suspension with electronic roll stabilisationensures a remarkable balance of dynamics and comfort.

    The ABT Individual ‘Signature Line’ interior package for the RSQ8-LE can be ordered at a price of €74,900.00 incl. 19% VAT, including assembly.

    ABT Sportsline Emphasizes Interior Tailoring Prowess with RS 6 Legacy Edition

    Over the years, Kempten, Germany-based ABT Sportsline has evolved its business from tuner and bodykit manufacturer to tailor of special edition and bespoke Audi builds. Like Alpina is to BMW, its focus is more as a remaster of the modern than a resto-custom tailor such as Singer, but tailoring is tailoring and so we still consider them what we call a “remaster”. That is especially so when you look at their latest focus on their “ABT Individual Interior Program“.

    ABT Sportsline just dropped a few images seen in this story on their social media channels. It shows a black Audi RS 6 Avant built to their “Legacy Edition” specification on the outside, a configuration that includes wheels, suspension, body kit and plenty of carbon fiber. Beyond that, it’s also got a very unique powder blue interior with plenty of suede-like surfaces and tailored stitching. The color is called “Shadow Blue” in case you’re curious.

    The post also includes a link to their official ABT Individual program website where you can explore even more of what they’re capable of doing on the inside of the car. For now, the program appears to center around the RS 6 and RS 7, though we’ll see where it goes from here. Check out more on their website HERE.
