    The American masses may always prefer SUVs to wagons, but enthusiasts can't get enough of these low-slung, practical vehicles. Too bad we don't actually buy them when they do reach our shores. For this reason, Audi has held off on supplying America with its highest performance wagons - until now. The 2021 Audi RS6 Avant is our first taste of Audi Sport in long-roofed guise.
    Miles straps into this nearly 600-horsepower estate to see if our patience has been rewarded. In this review, we'll go in-depth on its exterior design, interior features, performance, and technology.

    Hands down the most beautiful wagon on earth. The Merc E63 wagon may be slightly faster, but look wise, not even close.

    • @AT-cm5nu
      @AT-cm5nu 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      E63s faster for a bit vs stock RS6, but who buying RS6 and keep it stock? Simple software tune make this car 800hp and it smokes 63 like its nothing.

    • @martingetliffe
      @martingetliffe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The C7 version of the RS6 (previous generation) is better looking than this one. The fenders are wider from & rear. It didn’t have the fancy laser show at the start but for looks that’s the version for me......

    I really enjoyed this detailed review and how you gotten close-up to all of the controls of this lovely ride! My Cousin has the A3 in the Hatchback version (where I’m from in the UK) I know you guys can only get the Sedan and now Wagon versions, we call a Wagon an ‘Estate’ and ‘Saloon’ for a sedan. I’lll share this video with her so she can learn how to get more out of her A3 because a lot of things here should still apply. Man I really wish I was allowed to drive as I’ve never been able to, and that really sucks, as my Quality of Life would have been better!

    I drive a B8 S4 and my dad has a Continental GT Speed. I find the shorter travel on the S4 to be way more satisfying than the huge pull needed in the Bentley. If almost feels like the paddles flex like a fishing rod.
