Here are the specific differences between Audi RS6 and RS7: Exterior: The Audi RS7 has larger body dimensions. The Audi RS6 measures 4982×1911×1398mm (L×W×H), while the Audi RS7 measures 5012×1911×1414mm (L×W×H). Powertrain: The Audi RS6 is equipped with a 4.0TFSI V8 twin-turbocharged direct-injection engine, delivering a maximum power of 309 kW and a maximum torque of 550 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Audi RS7 is equipped with a 4.0TFSI V8 twin-turbocharged direct-injection engine, delivering a maximum power of 412 kW and a maximum torque of 700 Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
As an ordinary person who frequently drives these types of cars, I find the differences between the RS6 and RS7 quite noticeable. The RS6 features a station wagon design with enormous space, making it super convenient for loading luggage or taking family trips; whereas the RS7 adopts a coupe style with sleeker body lines that look cooler, but its rear seats and trunk are much smaller. In terms of power, both models use Audi's 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine, delivering astonishing acceleration that reaches 100 km/h in just over 3 seconds. However, they feel different to drive: the RS6 leans towards comfort and stability at high speeds, while the RS7, with its lower center of gravity, offers more agile and nimble handling in corners. For daily practicality, the RS6 is more hassle-free and ideal for outings; the RS7 is better suited for showing off in the city. Their prices are similar, with the RS7 being slightly more expensive due to its more avant-garde design. Personally, I lean towards the RS6—functionality first.
