The RS takes inspiration for design and performance directly from the racetrack.

A three-spoke multi-function leather steering wheel with a six-speed manual transmission continues to combine with high-performance with style and safety.
The Laura RS sports an attractive exterior which reveals its high-performance heritage. Its character is perfectly captured by the 16″ alloy wheels, aerodynamic spoiler on the boot and the aggressive chrome dual exhaust. The understated style of the RS is further reflected in the xenon curve projector headlights with dynamic levelling, corner function, with front fog lights and the LED position lamps. The new Laura RS will be available in four sporty shades of Sprint Yellow, Race Blue, Candy White and Magic Black.
