Audi RS6 Avant vs Audi RS7 Sportback: Head to Head

In this episode of head to head we go over what is actually different between these two bad a** twin turbo V8 sedans. This vehicle applies to the standard RS6 and RS7 as well as the performance models as well.

I will be getting the RS7, love the sleek clean spaceship audi look with the lights.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

It is the original show stopper!

[@TerryStewart32]

@@emilytheaudinerdI think the Audi RS5 coupe is the best looking audi

[@jubertszn]

THE RS6 IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CAR EVER MADE ❤🎉

[@emilytheaudinerd]

It is gorgeous!!!

Congratulations!!!!

Hey Emily 😊 just letting ya know - i'm from the UK and have an S5 with matrix LEDs.. they're really cool and light up the road either side of a car in front of you.. but the slightly annoying thing is, people coming towards you on a highway do tend to think you have high beam on so most people flash you back to remind you.. just a slight drawback!!!

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Hello! Thanks for watching my video! Very interesting, I feel like even without functioning matrix and my high beams off folks still flash me with the regular lights!

[@ngonidzashekimbini7177]

Awesome video......I'd definitely take the RS6 😍

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thanks! I think I'll take that one too ;)

[@therealmotorwalk]

Wow, this was yet another amazing video. Great job, Emily! I absolutely love the new Audi interiors. I especially love the diamond stitched leather seats on many of the new S models. I was just wondering why would anyone get an RS6 over an RS7 when they’re both almost the same price. I know there’s a few thousand dollars difference, but when you’re spending $120K+ on a car, would it make sense to go for a lower model for just $2K less? Maybe some people want a wagon instead of a sedan? I’m not sure… 🤔

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thank you! You're right, the choice is really between wagon and sportback.

[@nextlife2230]

RS7 is best!

[@emilytheaudinerd]

It sure is a beast!!

[@badanimations3187]

At it girl😂,, love the show

[@thermondadams610]

Great job! I learned a lot.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tmyere.]

Doesn't putting pressure on the tailgates damage it?

[@redrover508]

I like the rs6 better but the rs7 is always over looked it's a beautiful car

[@ezurmnd]

Rs6 for me. I just got a thing fornstation wagons

[@blimeythatwasclose]

ah you got the slow ones............. the Performance version is where its now at. 😜🙃

[@justincarroll9846]

My nephews got the RS6.Had it mac tuned.800bhp.0 to 100k.in 2.8 seconds. Frightening. There very expensive to run and own.Be warned your just throw money at it.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Whoa! That's fast!

[@justincarroll9846]

@@emilytheaudinerd going past an M3 competition and a Ferrari at 180mph on the hard shoulder because they wouldn't move over that frightened crap out of me and bloody dangerous.

[@3204clivesinclair]

What a difficult position to be in - choosing between these two!

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Such a hard choice!

[@MidwestMotor]

This video was awesome!!! I'm an Audi nerd also! I got bitten by the Audi bug when I owned a 2009 A4 with the 3.2 V6, then I got a 2010 S4. Now I'm going to wait a couple years and get a 2024 RS6 Avant Performance. The LED Matrix lights are unlockable as we speak - there's a thread on Audizine website on how to do it. You should race the 2 - just to see if there is a difference. Cheers! 🏁🏁🏁🏁

[@Bitapaul888]

A heads up race is in the works......

[@emilytheaudinerd]

@midwestmotor @bitapaul888 The race will be in the future videos! Thanks for watching!

[@mrees5170]

Awesome video and amazing cars.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thank you!!

[@KickingTires]

This is awesome!

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thank you!

[@cocktailsat9]

Great video Emily. I like the capless gas fill. My preference is the RS6 Avant. Maybe if I sell my 23 A4 S line, 09 A4 3.2 and 87 5000 I can get one! I really do want an avant.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thanks for watching! We love the Avant too!

[@madsquad010]

Can please do s7 vs the rs7

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Yes! That video will be out in 3 weeks!

[@alanincentraljersey]

I plan on buying a 2026 RS7 with every bell and whistle I can get. I am hopefully Audi keeps this in the lineup. I currently have a 23 RS5 which I love. Thank you for the thorough review. Merry Christmas to you and your husband/family.

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Thank you! Happy new year!

In 2026 it'll be hybrid.... buy it now!

[@GForceSS]

It took delivery of my new 2024 RS7 performance, in July and I couldn’t be more thrilled. It’s Daytona Grey Pearl. I still haven’t mastered the MMI but your RS7 video helped a lot. Love watching your very informative videos. Keep up the great work!

[@rayvalk1433]

I own a RS6 for 2 years now, its tuned to 700 bhp and 900 nm. 0-100 km. in 2.7 Its a beatifull car although a like the new rs7 too

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Nice!

[@MrKarsoon]

RS6 is beautiful and RS7 is handsome!

[@emilytheaudinerd]

Agreed!

[@Random124car]

Not a hater! Great video but wanted to call out that your 0-60 numbers are incorrect. 0-60 is Closer to 3.3 secs in these cars. 3.7 is slow that’s more rs5 range still .2 secs ish off rs5 numbers but closer to that. Cool video tho 👏👏

[@Bitapaul888]

She uses the official Audi numbers, between roll out and no roll out and differing track conditions there are going to be variations...

[@emilytheaudinerd]

I used Audi published numbers. Other reporters/tester's numbers will vary.
