What the Critics Say

"With performance chops to spare and a properly luxurious interior that can hold more than you'd expect, there's a good reason why people fawn over the RS6.  If you aren't quite ready to embrace the crossover life, this middle-grounder presents a hard opportunity to pass up." -- Roadshow by CNET

""Surprising usefulness aside, it's hard to treat the RS 6 objectively. As an enthusiast in America, driving this wagon is a dream come to life. An excellent cabin, gigantic straight-line capabilities, and scorching looks solidify its position as the coolest thing Audi has sold in the U.S. since the manual R8." -- Road and Track

What's New for 2023

Only one small change has been made to the iconic Audi RS 6 Avant for the 2023 model year. Drivers can now opt for an available black headliner that's been made from recycled materials. Aside from that one addition, the RS 6 Avant is essentially unchanged from last year's version.

Audi RS 6 Avant Features

Bold Styling

For a truly unmistakable look, the vast majority of the exterior of the Audi RS 6 Avant is constructed using RS-exclusive components and parts. Broad flared wheel arches along with a body that's been widened by 1.6 inches help showcase the athleticism of the RS 6 Avant. Positioned underneath the sharp LED headlights, striking side air inlets open on the eye-catching RS bumper. Paying tribute to Avant models of the past, the RS 6 Avant demonstrates confidence across its sweeping profile, straight roofline, and flat D pillars. Its bold architecture culminates at the rear with a roof edge spoiler and an RS-specific bumper with rear diffuser and design elements in gloss black.

Driver-Centric Interior

Enduring passion and the inspired passion of dedicated enthusiasts helped Audi craft a bespoke interior that helps make every drive in the RS 6 Avant a truly unforgettable experience. You'll discover driver-focused technologies along with RS-specific accents unique to the model. Blending the sleek interior architecture with the intuitive user interface, the MMI touch response® system offers a dual-screen layout with endless personalization possibilities. Using the advanced Audi virtual cockpit display, you can access RS settings including power output, boost pressure, lap times, acceleration measurements, and g forces. Quilted RS sport seats help keep you held firmly in place during heavy acceleration and high-speed cornering.
