Audi will be unveiling a new Quattro concept at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, previewing the German automaker’s new design language.

According to the latest reports, the new Quattro concept will be built on a modified variant of the A6 platform and will measure about 15-feet long. The concept is rumored to feature radical styling and will weigh in at a scant 2,645 pounds.

Under the hood of the concept will be a twin-turbo, 4.0-liter V8 engine with around 600 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Audi gauge public interest with a Quattro concept, having unveiled one at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. It is believed that the German automaker will consider producing the Quattro this time if feedback is positive enough.
