In the world of supercars, where performance meets everyday utility, Audi is once again pushing the boundaries with a new beast - the RS6 Avant GT. This unique combination of unbridled power, exceptional design and exclusivity sets a new standard in the segment. Armed with a twin-supercharged 4.0-liter V8 engine that develops 621 horsepower (463 kW) and 847 Nm (625 lb-ft of torque), the RS6 Avant GT promises a drive you won't forget. Get ready to explore how Audi is raising the bar in the luxury and performance wagon class.
Audi RS6 Avant GT it's not just another high-performance wagon. It is a vehicle that combines immense power, superb design and technological sophistication. With the same engine as its predecessor, RS6 Avant Performance, the GT model provides a speed of 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 3.2 seconds, which is a tenth of a second faster than the standard model. But the GT doesn't just impress with its linear speed; with lowered chassis for 10 mm, with manually adjustable coil springs, stiffer anti-roll bars, three-way electronically adjustable dampers and an improved differential that favors rear-wheel drive, it also offers improved handling.

Audi's iconic red, white and black racing livery and 22-inch wheels are carried over almost verbatim from the Quattro 90. This look will be the only option for US buyers, while other markets will have a variety of color options to choose from.

There's a choice - white with orange and black, gray with black or black with gray - but if you're willing to shell out 206,000 euros for one of the 660 GTs that Audi will build, then it must have this livery, or rather the decal scheme.
Since Audi doesn't want bikes, boxes or tents to be placed on the roof that could affect airflow, this is the first RS6 without roof racks.
Under the hood, the twin-supercharged 4.0-liter V8 engine delivers exactly the same 621 hp (463 kW) and 847 Nm of torque as you get in the standard RS6 Performance, which costs €150,000.
2024 promises to be a great year for very fast wagons. The renewed Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo will soon arrive on the scene, Audi is saying goodbye to the RS6 in the manner shown, and before the end of the year we are expecting the BMW M5 Touring with more than 700 hp.
