India’s only high-performance station wagon, the Audi RS6 Avant Performance teams up mind-boggling numbers with reallife practicality.
THE NEWLY LAUNCHED Audi RS6 Avant Performance is the German automaker’s ultimate high-performance station wagon in its product portfolio. Created as the more potent version of the standard RS6 model, the RS6 Avant Performance is the final evolution of the third generation “C7” body-type which made its international debut in 2013. The RS badge — taken for the German term “RennSport,” that literally translates to “racing sport” in English — on the front and back, indicates that it belongs to the range of most powerful and technologically advanced cars Audi builds. Interestingly, Audi’s “RS” lineage also started with an Avant — a name given by Audi to its station wagons. Launched in 1992, the Audi RS2 sports wagon became the first-ever car to wear the RS badge. Ten years later, the first-generation RS6 made its debut, ushering a new era of supercar-fast estate cars. Although all current RS models are rivaled by BMW’s M and Mercedes’ AMG cars, the Audi RS6 Avant Performance is in a segment of its own by virtue of being the only high-performance station wagon on sale in the country.
