Jon Olsson’s Audi ABT RS6+ ‘Phoenix’
What do you do if you are one of the internet’s most popular vlogger personalities and your one of a kind tourer is stolen then burnt to the ground? Jon Olsson knew exactly what to do when he reached out to the masterminds at ABT Sportsline of Kempten, Germany and had them create an Audi RS6+ that he dubbed ‘Phoenix’ for its ability to rise from the ashes.
Jon is no stranger to exotic customs tailored to fit his outlandish personality, so teaming up with Daniel Abbot of ABT Sportsline was an obvious choice to scratch the itch of resurrecting the roasted rambler. ABT already specs the Audi RS6+, so there was no need to start from scratch, with their modded out beast pumping out 705 hp and 650 lb•ft of torque, courtesy of the proprietary ABT Power S control unit. The exterior of the RS6+ sees the addition of a front lip, front skirt add-ons, mirror covers, side and rear skirt add-ons, and a rear spoiler, giving an extra bit of downforce as well as an ultra performance look. Olsson had his wrapped in a custom dual tone camo, because who should ever have to choose between black and white, am I right?
