Article content 2021 Audi RS 6 Avant Photo by Jonathan Yarkony This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. That trunk is a large space, easier to access than a sedan because of its tall opening, but also easier than most SUVs because of that low floor. Maximum cargo capacity with the rear seats folded is 1,680 litres (though again this varies depending on the source - no matter the number, it’s big, though not as tall as an SUV, obviously, so bikes gotta go an a roof rack), but a better cargo trick is the ski pass-through, so that a family of four can easily schlepp skis or hockey sticks without messing with roof racks or bags, or cramming it over the seat tops. ft., which seems grossly underselling it according to my eyeballs and all the stuff it fits), over a metre across (1050 mm) and a metre deep (1176 mm), with a trunk lift-over height at 60 cm so it’s easy to load but plenty spacious, easily accommodating at least a couple hockey bags or four golf bags. Cargo capacity is about 850 litres (30 cubic feet, though European media site lists it as 565 L/20 cu.
What makes the RS 6 special is that superb practicality. Pfft, every other luxury car these days seems to have a 500-hp version and eye-melting acceleration. You see, the RS 6 Avant isn’t special in its 591 hp or sub-four second sprint to 100 km/h. To make it easier, I’ll start with the mundane, but in this case, the mundane is the spectacular. When I finally write it down and tell its story, I feel like I’m giving it away, and of all the cars, this is the one I never want to give away. It’s hard though, because this car is so good, so perfectly me, that I don’t want to share. I confess that I find myself just staring at this car and daydreaming about it instead of writing the rest of the story.īut months later and after several false starts, I think I can finally let go and write about it. Normally I stay well away from describing everything you can clearly see with your own eyes in our photos, but this being one of my favourites, I will take a sentence to point out its modern, edgy contours, low-slung stance, big wheels with even sharper lines, and the spectacularly sinister contrast of the blacked out-grille (try to ignore that confounding front plate) against the candy red metallic paint. The performance of these machines is all spectacular, so there is nothing wrong with picking the prettiest one. To be honest, I would be more than happy with any of the above options replacing my own wagon, but the RS 6 Avant earns the top spot over the E 63 on looks. If you are one of the rare birds sitting on the fence wavering between a land-missile SUV or one of these wagons, get the wagon - you are far more likely to use and appreciate the performance advantages of one of these wagons on a daily basis than you are to need the ground clearance of the utility vehicle.
