5 reasons to buy the 2023 Audi RS6
1. Lots of room for passengers and cargo
If you’re looking for a spacious family wagon, the 2023 Audi RS6 is a great choice. With seating for five, the RS6 offers a generous 41.3 inches of legroom and 38.3 inches of headroom in the front, with 37.4 inches of legroom and 39.5 inches of headroom in the back. And when it’s time for shopping trips, weekend getaways, or family vacations, you can stow your gear in the wagon’s 30 cu-ft of cargo space, which increases to 58.3 cu-ft with the rear bench folded down.
2. Thrilling performance
Don’t let the SUV-like utility fool you—the 2023 Audi RS6 has serious performance chops, too. Its twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 engine makes a stunning 591 hp and sprints from zero to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds (according to the manufacturer, when new). Your crew will beg you to take them along for joyrides on twisty backroads to experience all the power and thrills the RS6 has to offer.
3. Stylish wagon
Want a car that stands out from the pack? The 2023 Audi RS6 is a supremely stylish wagon with a long-roof silhouette, wide grille, and muscular hood. Ambient lights showcase the high-end interior, with chic aluminum brightwork and matte carbon-fiber trim on the dash and doors. You’ll love the sophisticated heated leather steering wheel, as well as the luxurious Valcona leather seats. Get ready to sneak peeks at the RS6 long after you’ve parked.
4. Tons of tech
The 2023 Audi RS6 makes it easy to keep you and your crew connected on the road. With Android Auto™ and wireless Apple CarPlay® compatibility, you can stream your curated playlists through the premium Bang & Olufsen® sound system. Ensure your devices never run out of juice with the wireless charging pad with phone signal booster, as well as multiple USB ports. For peace of mind behind the wheel, lane departure warning and forward collision mitigation are standard. Want more driver aids? Look for a model with the available driver assistance package to get rear automatic braking, blind spot warning, lane-keeping assistance, and adaptive cruise control.
5. Available Executive package
If you’d love to get some tech-enabled parking assistance, look for an Audi RS6 with the available Executive package. On 2023 models, the package includes an available remote automated parking system that allows you to initiate a parking maneuver from outside the vehicle using a smartphone app—great for tight urban spots and crowded parking lots.
The Executive package also includes heated rear seats, soft-close doors, additional leather trim, and a head-up display.Shop with your budget in mind
