Audi RS6 Avant Lease

The RS6 Avant is a beefed-up version of the Audi A6 Avant. It’s larger than the RS4 Avant, though the RS5 Sportback is a great choice if you want something sporty-looking that will still do for the school run. 

Lift up the bonnet on the RS6 Avant and you’ll find a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine. There’s quattro all-wheel-drive and an eight-speed automatic gearbox, too, and it’s capable of 592bhp. All this adds up to some pretty impressive performance: 0-62mph in just 3.6 seconds and an electronically-limited top speed of 155mph. 

Opt for the Vorsprung trim, and the top speed is increased to 174mph. Ask Audi nicely, and they may even take the speed limiter off - pushing the top speed up to 189mph. 

Quattro AWD means the RS6 is extremely surefooted. Rear axle steering comes as standard, keeping the RS6’s turning circle tight at town speeds and increasing stability on faster roads. You won’t have any trouble squeezing into tight spaces, either.

Audi’s dual-screen MMI infotainment set-up and 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit display will keep you entertained and informed, and you’ll even be able to put that acceleration to the test with a built-in lap timer.

To top it all off, the RS6 Avant has a large 565-litre boot that expands to 1,680 litres with all the rear seats folded flat. These can also be folded in 40:20:40 configuration if you don’t plan on filling the whole rear bench. It really is a car that does everything.

What about the alternatives? The Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo and BMW Alpina B5 Touring are just some of the other performance-tuned estates on offer.
