If you want considerable vehicle performance in subtle packaging, you might consider an Audi. Here's an example...it's the all new 2020 S6. And even though it just looks like a handsome German sedan, beneath this sheet metal is over 400hp. Let's take a closer look.

Always loved the styling
great interior colors
My dad bought one last week. Its an amazing car
Was it the 4.0 or 2.9l?
Nice review, just wanted to see more exhaust sound perhaps. These sport sedans and coupes from Audi are supercar killers...I have a 2016 RS7 and the car is Very capable.
My favorite vehicle.
did the brakes make a grunting noise when coming to a stop??
Those orange side markers in headligts are really poking ayes on US spec cars.
how come you didn't talk about how bad the brakes were.. they literally makes a grunting noise when coming to a stop...
Is this milesperhour ???
“HEAD up display!”
The european version of the S6 only comes with a 3.0 V6 diesel
Love the car wish there was no limiter
Don't be to quick to say the 6 has more power. The last model was rated at 450 and many have dyno'd it at 480 stock. It's got a few nice upgrades but given all the displays and the small engine, I'll stick with the last model. I turn off and retract my center display all the time, makes such a clean look. Does the new one have FLIR like the last? It's great to find cops hiding in the dark on the side of the road. lol
4.4, too slow Hope that's just Audi's posted time and not the actual time. Factory C7 was 3.7/12.2 a quick tune is 3.5/11.8
True. I was like what? Where did he get this info from. Numbers for what they are 450 is more than 444 the last time I check. The torque is more thou. 443 vs 406 @ 1400
@@pnswg01 They cranked up the boost on that 2.9l to get those numbers. I'm curious to see what a tune is going to muster.
An issue I'm waiting to see is the stop/start on turbos. Turbos need to be idled for 10-15 seconds to slow down. You can't shut the oil off on a turbo like that and expect any kind of a normal life.
You didn't talk about reliability of the car .
The V-8 S6 has more hp, 450hp and 406tq..
Oh yea, those rims will last 3 weeks in Rochester, New York.
We see...?
Who's we?
How is the ride and comfort compared to A6 and A7?
The C7 S6 had air suspention while the A's had springs. Ride comfort is night and day better.
is there much body roll? @@datsuntoyy
@@user-mc2kk8yf5z Not much considering the weight of the car. I had a pair of roundabouts by my last house I could go around 35-40 mph. Tried that at 20 in my wife's FWD and slid off the road.
Good luck cleaning the white thread in these seats
It's not an issue at all. 103K on my '13 S6 and they are still nice and white.
@@datsuntoyy how do you clean the threads?
@@aarvin1 I use a general leather cleaner, the kind you dilute in water in a bucket, but I only clean the seats once a year. They just don't seem to get dirty. It's possible they use a coated thread that repels dirt. Just stay away from cheap cleaners like Armorall. I like McKee's, Pinnacle and ones like that.
So the S6 makes as much power as an RS5?
Well, yes. But the RS5 is a different beast when it comes to the way they built it. For example: 0-60 below 4s where the s6 is between 4 and 5s.
@@luisfabriciogarbato9656 Stock S6 is actually 3.7 and 12.2 by actual track tests stock. Audi's report of 4.5 0-60 was grossly under rated.
@@datsuntoyy 3.7 on an audi s6 stock????? C' mon...evidence? Even for my old rs7 3.7 was tough.
@@luisfabriciogarbato9656www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a15117391/2013-audi-s6-test-review/
Yes keep in mind that it has a supercharger also in 2021! A dyno was done on a AWD one it had 464 to the wheels stock!
+1 .. An S6 Avant with the 2.9l V6 tt would have made one helluva sport wagon.
Love the car, but seriously you have to option sound insulation ????
Every car, if available, should be produced this way.....just another con to get more money out of buyers...All manufacturers should be shamed into adhering to this
I’m guilty of neglect, my 2017 S6 sits honorably everyday in my garage while I drive my most recent addition daily now..2020 Tesla Y dual motor performance, performance.. I still love my S6, but cheating feels so good
1:25 So funny
Wooooooooooooo!
This car is slower than the c7 bro, and has less hp
444hp 444 torque 4.4 0-60 lol
It's underrated. It can do it in as little as 4 seconds flat.
i was in love with it until he popped the hood and i saw a V6 under there.....
It pretty much is the same as the V8. The outgoing V8 had turbo issues unless you stayed on disassembling the units to clean the oil filters. Even still then the turbos would fail. The car weighs a bit less and makes the same torque and a bit less power which would make it on par with a C7.5, the last V8. Obviously the V8 sounds better.
I'd have to drive it before I really finally gave it my blessing though. I have a 3.0T Stage2 and can destroy a gen 1 S6. More torque, more hp, lighter car, instant power from supercharger.
@@Todd.T The stage 2 with pully 3.0 on 93 octane have almost the exact same HP and torque rating as a stock S6 c7.5 (APR). The cars weigh essentially the same. No way you will "destroy" a gen 1 S6 with a competent driver. That being said with all the work that goes into a stage 2 3.0, it's nothing compared to a stage 1 4.0l. A stage 1 4.0 will destroy a stage 2 3.0 (+50hp and 150lbft torque).
The turbo issues were generally fixed after the first few years, '15 on. I have 110k on my '13 and original untouched turbos. But to be fair, at 45,000 waranty replaced the vent breather so they MAY have done the TSB at that point and removed the screens. Nothing was mentioned in my service report as to this being done however. I just know how to drive a turbo.
@@datsuntoyy Ok. Here is a 93 Stage 2 DP with TCU:

Here is an S6:

Now Academytim has a faster time with his A6 and that is not the fastest run I've seen in a stock S6 which I'd say 12.1-12.2. IgnitionTube ran an S4 then an SQ5 and now owns the S6, so this isn't his first day launching.
So, look at these:

The list gets bigger and bigger. Some have changed and don't run 93 anymore. A 4-5 car difference in a race means the other guy had no chance. An S6 alone, when new, is significantly more expensive than an A6/A7 so I'd say running 3k worth of mods on an A6/A7 is fair. For a car with an engine that is 33% larger with two power adders instead of only one and those power adders have higher potential. For a car with a dual clutch transmission vs a car with a torque converter transmission. I'd say its fair that I change some pulleys and some software.

@@Todd.T .1 second difference between a heavily modified 3l and a stock 4.0 well within the margin of variation for altitude, launch, temp ect. About what youd expect given the similar power on the same car.
@@datsuntoyy 2 pulleys and software isn't heavily modified. The guys that port their blowers, use a better fueling system, e85, large throttle bodies and with exhaust run 10s. The fastest being 10.3, i think.
Every increase of10hp is generally a car length, every loss of 100 pounds is a car length. The problem is, using charts is that it doesn't tell you when and how the hp-tq is delivered.
A lot of these guys lowered their time 3 tenths with a transmission tune. Now they can launch at 3000+rpm and scream up to a 7400 RPM redline instead of 6200 and bang into the next gear hard. You can't do that with a stock ZF8 transmission.
You saw the cars are definitely that fast, and with fuel, approach 11s.
It really does takes a stage one S6 to tackle a 93 octane DP 3.0 with a trans tune. Drivability wise, I don't have room to open up a big turbo car, but if you want punchy light to light performance, a 3.0T with a trans tune is pretty much the winner.
Leaving Las Vegas on my way to Primm? Nobody in the way and higher speeds would favor the S6.
Most guys that went S6 say they should have gone RS7. I still would prefer the S6 because, I like the car better and would run Stage 2 but have a set of SRM turbos ready.
Despite anybody's luck with S6 turbos, there are just too many people with them that have failed and some of them owned the car since new, did all the precautions with the oil screens an still had failures.
The S6 causes the most anxiety of all of the C7 variants. In the used market, A6 to S6 there can be a 10K difference for the older car with 2 turbos that might go People that drive theirs daily just don't want to take that chance.
I'd love a Sepang blue S6, but I just don't need any turbo anxiety or issues. I'd definitely run a tune because the 3.0 cars are no joke and I wouldn't want to run into a tuned one and make a RUclips video.

Apparently the turbo S4 doesn't have the pull of the blower S4 on the highway, which defies logic, but here is a turbo S4. In the quarter the lighter 3.0 S4 doesn't seem to have an advantage over the A6.
You can see how matching HP and TQ numbers doesn't tell the whole story.
Those infotainment/aC displays look cheap. Audi can’t even put a single big LCD like RAM trucks. Sad Audi.
Have you actually sat in an S6 in person? Nothing about it looks or feels cheap.
You should have called your review: how to make cool car look boring
Or I get a Charger Hellcat and destroy this little German back to fatherland where it can wimpier in fear. Go Hellcat.
Yeah but the charger interior is ugly af. It’s not even close. So yes it’s faster I’ll give you that but that’s about it.
I have this s6 on a simple e85 tune and I smoke hellcats from a dig every fuckin day.
I get a Camry TRD for less than half the price, look cooler and be more reliable for 20 years, and wing yo. Case closed.
Well, if you are a " commuter only"... yes, Toyotas and Hondas are the ones to go..I'd include the newer N cars from Hyundai in the list too. However, if you are a car enthusiastic you will buy the TRD and regret the moment you leave the dealer...." Booooring". I have two audis and I promise u, my daily driver is way funnier than whatever car from Toyota, including their " AutoZone" plastic car called TRD line. Note: I'm not arguing reliability here, yes, audis trends to brake more and be more expensive to repair..but you only stick ur feet in waters u know u can swim right?
