The 2023 Audi RS6 Avant Is The Ultimate Wagon For The Wealthy Enthusiast

[@theredline]

Happy Friday everyone! As requested, we pushed our full review on the RS6 Avant and this vehicle is easily in our list for best cars we drove in 2023! Audi should be giving us some more details on the upcoming 2024 RS6 Avant Performance later this year, but if you can't wait for that model, the regular version is still going to be more than enough for any enthusiast.

Seems to me the RS6 has actually been selling decently. Hopefully it encourages manufacturers to try more wagons here. People are pretty much done with Sedans and wagons are an interesting alternative

[@ep187]

I own a 2022 RS6. And yes it’s fantastic. Fast, sounds great, handles brilliantly, the Quattro grip is phenomenal,and it is ridiculously comfortable on long journeys. At high speeds on the German autobahn it just hunkers down and almost seems to be telling you that it can go much faster. But in the interest of fairness there are a couple of issues: the tyre profile is so thin any pot holes don’t just jolt your spine, it breaks the alloy (I’ve seen 3 at my local Audi garage as a result of this), the gearbox in normal auto mode is slow and dim witted and the accelerator has little feel and is quite spongy. None of these things would stop me recommending one though. I wonder what the Performance model will be like.

happy friday too, thanks so much !! like your reviews, your cars are so clean and tire shine !! your a pro !!

Great wagon! I saw one of these while on the interstate while in my Lightning and coming from NYC to PA and the driver was conservative however we did make a few spirited runs. I got home and search it online right away. What a great looking, unique "class of it's own" car!

A few years ago I probably would have love this car but it's starting to show it's age.

As always Redline definitely gives excellent over all reviews of any vehicle.

[@justwingingit1]

I’ve seen a black and red RS6 in the wild,both were stunning! I was considering a C8 Corvette ERay to see the states when retired rather than the boring RV thing BUT the RS6 with similar performance,larger cargo/napping area and approximate price range has me reconsidering…not to mention it’s AWD/any weather friendliness! I’m a bit Leary of Audi’s past reliability but in fairness…the Corvette has had a jaded past as well… The cheaper alternative to the RS6 with the same ballpark performance is the BMW M3 wagon…decisions,decisions. Both have crazy performance and reliability issues which is why I’m also considering 2-3 other performance cars together…for the same amount of cash. The CTR,Darkhorse,and the GR Corolla. I understand it’s apples and oranges but 3 cars approximately for the price of one is worth considering. Plus,Toyota is coming out with the new Celica and MR2…lots of toys to choose from!

How is it more along the lines of a 5 series than a TLX or ES?! Just because the engine is mounted longitudinally doesn’t make the MLB Evo any less of a FWD based platform with a great AWD system. The Acura Legend and Vigor had longitudinal engines that sat behind the front axle compared to MLB Evo based vehicles, that has the engine in front of the front axle. Despite the fact that those Acura’s have longitudinally mounted engines that doesn’t make them akin to the 5 series at the time.
