Audi AG has celebrated reaching 100,000 Facebook likes in six months by releasing a video featuring its brawny Sport quattro concept.

The Sport quattro concept utilizes a plug-in hybrid drive that makes use of the twin-turbo V8 from the RS 6 Avant, which develops 412 kW (560 hp) and 700 Nm of torque, along with a disc-shaped electric motor producing a peak output of 110 kW (148 hp) and 400 Nm.

In Sport mode, the operating strategy sets the drive system for maximum power and performance. With 515 kW (700 hp) and 800 Nm pumping through a modified eight-speed tiptronic gearbox to the quattro powertrain with sport differential on the rear axle, the Sport quattro concept rockets to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 305 km/h (190 mph).
