Everything else remained unchanged, including interior equipment and the entire powertrain. This vehicle uses a naturally-aspirated 5.2-liter V10 engine, whose 510 hp take it from 0 to 100 kph in 3.2 seconds and to the top speed of 320 kph. The only transmission is the automated S-Tronic, with two clutches and seven speeds.
