Is there a sedan version of the RS6?

rs6 has a sedan version. The older Audi RS6 sedan model belongs to the Avant (station wagon) series, which is a high-performance model under Audi's RS lineup, representing a car that balances practicality and performance. Positioning of Audi RS6: Audi RS6-Quattro, commonly referred to as RS6, is the highest-performance version in the A6 product line, positioned above the Audi S6. This is a sport-oriented executive-level car developed and produced by Quattro GmbH, a subsidiary of Audi AG. RS6 variant models: The RS6 comes in two versions: a five-door, five-seater station wagon "Avant" version, and a four-door, five-seater saloon/sedan. Both versions feature a longitudinally mounted front engine configuration and do not share platforms with any other vehicles. The transmission is arranged longitudinally behind the engine in the form of a transaxle.
I remember when researching Audi performance cars, I learned that the RS6 series now only comes in Avant wagon form without a sedan variant. The earliest generation like the C5 era did offer a sedan version, but the current C8 exclusively produces the Avant wagon. It accelerates incredibly fast with 0-100 km/h in just over 3 seconds, while the spacious rear seats and generous cargo capacity make weekend family trips very convenient. After modifications, it looks even cooler, though the chassis tuning and aerodynamics are specifically designed for the wagon body style. Some people lament the absence of a sedan, but I believe this positioning makes it more versatile. If you want a pure high-performance sedan, consider the S6 or RS7 which retain the four-door coupe styling. Overall, the soul of the RS6 lies in the Avant – there's no need to insist on other versions.
