In this episode of Throttle House, Thomas and James put the Audi RS6 performance through its paces, showcasing its upgraded twin-turbo V8 engine with a whopping 621 horsepower. Priced at a hefty $145,000, this beast competes head-to-head with the likes of the M5 and E63, offering a unique blend of power and luxury. The team admires the Alcantara steering wheel but criticizes the small paddle shifters, questioning Audi's design choices in this area.
As they take the RS6 for a spin, the team discusses its handling, potential for tuning, and how it stacks up against the S8. While the interior of the RS6 has seen improvements, the team notes a regression from the previous generation in terms of quality. Despite this, the adaptive air suspension provides a comfortable and smooth ride, making the RS6 a versatile choice for various driving scenarios.
In conclusion, the Throttle House team finds the Audi RS6 to be the ultimate sleeper wagon, blending performance and practicality seamlessly. With its understated yet powerful presence on the road, the RS6 offers a unique driving experience that sets it apart from its competitors.
