2026 Audi RS 6 Avant review

Audi RS 6 Avant: a class leader on the details. Illustrative review

8.5/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Audi RS 6 Avant sits near the top of its class. Efficient in mixed driving; standard driver-assist suite. Base engine feels adequate, not quick and road noise on coarse pavement, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $128,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

Exactly what we needed

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the fuel economy still impresses passengers.

Great daily driver

We cross-shopped three others and this won on fuel economy. road noise on the highway is the trade-off.

Exactly what we needed

The fuel economy is the standout. My only gripe is road noise on the highway, which I knew going in.
