Sports superstars’ supercar of choice – The 2025 Audi RS 6 Avant Performance

Taking the crown as the most powerful Audi Avant model ever produced, the 2025 RS 6 Avant Performance offers an unparalleled combination of supercar dynamics and everyday practicality — preferred by global sports superstars like four-time Formula 1 world champion Max Verstappen and football sensation Lionel Messi.

Audi Sport’s high-performance wagon is currently available at Audi Philippines showrooms.  

Providing local supercar enthusiasts with a blend of power, practicality, and prestige like no other, the RS 6 Avant Performance is equipped with 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine delivering 630 hp and 850 Nm of torque. Thanks to revised turbochargers and a higher boost pressure, the power output marks an improvement of 30 hp and 50 Nm, translating to an even more exhilarating drive.  

Paired with an eight-speed tiptronic transmission and Audi’s renowned quattro all-wheel-drive system, the RS 6 Avant Performance accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, making it one of the fastest station wagons ever produced. 

Audi’s renowned quattro all-wheel drive system in the RS 6 Avant Performance can send up to 70% power to the front wheels and as much as 85% to the rear wheels.

Plus, the quattro’s mechanical center differential enhances agility by distributing power between the front and rear axles, capable of sending up to 70% power to the front and as much as 85% to the rear. This ensures maximum traction and sharper cornering performance regardless of road condition.  

Further enhancing dynamics are new lightweight 22-inch forged wheels fitted with high-performance tires. These reduce unsprung weight and improve road grip. 

A revised setup of the RS adaptive air suspension system can adjust the RS 6 Avant Performance’s behavior according to the road surface and the driving mode selected. 

Less insulation throughout the RS 6 Avant Performance lightens the car by eight kilograms, all while producing a more thrilling soundtrack inside the cabin.

While its performance is undeniably impressive, the 2025 RS 6 Avant Performance also stands out for its premium craftsmanship and suitability for everyday use. Its cabin is lined with RS-specific digital displays, Valcona leather upholstery, and carbon-fiber accents, creating a sporty yet refined atmosphere.

As an Audi, technology plays a major role in the model’s driving experience. The Audi virtual cockpit plus features a Performance Mode displaying real-time information — such as tire pressure, torque output, and g-forces — vital in performance driving.  

The model’s MMI touch response system provides seamless access to infotainment functions, while the Bang & Olufsen audio system with 3D sound ensures crystal-clear  quality. 

Despite its supercar capabilities, the RS 6 Avant Performance is a practical daily driver with an expansive cargo space and comfortable seating for five passengers. Such characteristic is faithful to Audi’s rich heritage of producing high-performance station wagons, which can be traced to the legendary RS 2 Avant of the 1990s. 

Developed in collaboration with Porsche, the RS 2 Avant established the foundation for Audi’s RS lineup, proving that station wagons could deliver thrilling performance without sacrificing everyday usability.  

The 2025 RS 6 Avant Performance represents the pinnacle of this evolution, offering even greater power, sharper handling, and advanced technology while staying true to its core philosophy — delivering uncompromising performance in a practical package.
