MTM Unveils the 1,100-HP Pangaea GT Based on Audi RS 6 Avant

With over 600 horsepower, room for a family of four and all their luggage, the Audi RS 6 Avant is one of the best cars on Earth for continent-crossing road trips. But what if you were cruising Earth about 300 million years ago? Well, back then you would have to traverse the Pangaea supercontinent that incorporated nearly all of landmasses on the planet. For a journey like that, you would need an RS 6 Avant with a lot more power. 1,100 horsepower should do the trick. And what would you call it? The Pangaea GT, of course.

The Swiss company, MTM Automotive, recently introduced the supercontinent crushing Pangaea GT based on the beloved Audi RS 6 Avant. The highlights will make you weak in your knees. The 4.0L twin-turbo V8 now makes over 1,100 horsepower and 885 foot-pounds of torque. 0 to 60 arrives in about 2.5 seconds and you don’t stop accelerating until you have passed 217 mph. A full carbon fiber body with enhanced aerodynamics helps keep you and the 22-inch centerlock wheels on the ground.

This car is a weapon of speed, but it hasn’t forgotten its practical side. There are still four seats so you can take three of your closest friends with you. Everyone gets their own racing bucket seat to hold them in place. Considering the performance this car is capable of, everyone will be thankful for the extra support.

The Audi RS 6 Avant is obviously born in Germany, the land of the Autobahn and its thousands of miles of unrestricted speed. But the Pangaea GT was conceived, developed, and designed in Switzerland. The country where racing was banned for nearly 70 years and brutal speeding fines are enforced by speed cameras that seem to be mounted every 200 feet. That kind of speed repression can lead one to lash out. And MTM has lashed out in a big way.

Only 25 Pangaea GTs will ever be made. So, you are likely to have the only one at your local cars and coffee. No price for this exclusive and precise speed machine has been published. But if you have to ask.
