Audi RS6 Avant (2020) | UK Review | PistonHeads

The new C8 RS6 has some big shoes to fill. The previous version earned its spurs after five years of shock and awe. Its replacement shakes up the formula. Dan Prosser crosses the continent to consider the result...

I felt some Carfection vibes watching this video! Great job, guys!

Dan Prosser is a fantastic car reviewer. Great video Pistonheads.

3:08 Fun Fact: In Germany you cant get the alcantara headliner without the Bang&Olufsen Soundsystem ... so if you want alcantara over your head it'll cost 8000+ €

Absolutely love the seat belts. Reminds me of high-end nato straps for watches. Simply gorgeous detail. Bravo Audi.

This review is an over-indulgent, self gratifying, over produced advertisement for big watch, big car heroics
I like it
I like it a lot

PH discovers production value! This is impressive stuff, well done chaps. Love the time lapse autoroute and nav @3:35, the outside cam/inside mic @4:25, the bumper cam @7:03… Dan is on top form too. As for the RS6, it's hugely appealing, and I'm far from an RS or Audi or even VAG fan. But I don't have £90k (let alone £135k!), so it doesn't matter.

Great work Dan - cinematics are up there with the best, too. I'd have an E63 wagon though, more entertaining and more understated.

The intro reminds me of the film Drive, nice work guys!

[ashleylemmer]

Thank for a great review and production guys. I would have the Audi.

Are we sure this is a "UK review"?

[Auditography]

Great video. To me this is the meanest looking car ever made. Cheers

[TheTonicro]

love it, probably one of the best car on the market now. for me its a little too big i would prefer rs4.

[adamkhan]

Best review of the new rs6 of them all. Brilliant work Dan.

[comic_ozzi]

A wonderfully dramatic video to match a dramatic car. RS6 all the way, with the heritage and body drama over the E63!

[EJHuman]

Quick question with electric cars taking over will you be changing your channel name to Circuitheads? 😆

Great video man, was fun to watch you have a pretty calming voice.

[rutkowsky]

I've got facelift RS6 and whilst I admit it's not the sharpest of cars, I have very little complaints about the dynamics. Rear wheel steering will sharpen up the handling no doubt - but in my mind, that's another thing to worry about in terms of reliability. I've seen some atrocious failures on Porsche cars... I think, I prefer one without this feature.

Welcome to Trier! Great Video! Wish i would have known you were here

Audi are making some incredible cars atm

2.1 tons? Clearly that bank-vault build quality has been taken to extremes. What an awesome looking beast though! Nice video Dan 👍🏻
