Overview
The 2023 Audi RS 6 Avant answers an automotive question we’re sure no one asked, at least in the context of American buyers: Who wants a high-performance wagon, let alone one as comically fast and punchy as the RS 6? Audi must think there’s a case, or it just enjoys being among the only automakers to offer a V8-powered, 591-horsepower wagon capable of sprinting from 0 to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds.
