　　[car home New Car Listed] On the evening of July 30th, the Audi RS 6 Avant, which attracted wide attention from fans, was officially listed at Shanghai Audi International Circuit. This high-performance station wagon, which was first introduced into domestic sales, was equipped with a 4.0T V8 engine.Its price is 1.598 million yuan.. See the following table for detailed selling price:

　　In addition, at this conference, Audi also officially released a brand-new sub-brand, Audi Sport. In the future, all high-performance and sports products of Audi will be integrated under the brand Audi Sport.

　　■ New car features

　　● Appearance: The travel body is low-key and the detailed design is more radical.

　　Is the appearance of RS 6 Avant (hereinafter referred to as RS 6) low-key or radical? This is a very controversial topic. Personally, I think the main reason for the disagreement is that everyone has different points of view. On the one hand, this high-performance car uses the body structure of the station wagon, which doesn’t look like a typical high-performance car with a small tail and exaggerated tail. After all, the station wagon is not very radical in most people’s impression, so many people say it is "dressing up as a pig to eat a tiger". On the other hand, if you look closely, in fact, as a high-performance car, RS 6 is not ambiguous in many details, and it adopts a very sharp design, such as exaggerated front and rear enclosure, unique honeycomb front grille, standard 20-inch thin tire, etc. The embellishment of these details makes RS 6 very aggressive if you look closely, so many people say that its design is more radical.

　　As a station wagon, RS 6 still gives more consideration to the convenience of home occasions, so we see the functions of LED far and near light, night vision system, electric suction door and so on in the external configuration of RS 6. These configurations are actually very humanized and high-grade, and with the design of its station wagon, it shows the family-caring side of RS 6 Avant.

More exciting videos are all on the car home video platform.

　　There is no doubt that the body lines of the station wagon make the RS 6 look elegant, especially its slender waistline and tail shape, which makes the RS 6 look low and visually humble. Speaking of this, it involves the topic of feelings again. In the hearts of many friends, the wagon, a model with a small audience, can just show its unique aesthetics and feelings.

　　● Interior: The family design is familiar, and the microscopic details highlight the sports style.

　　Compared with the personalized design, the design of RS 6 interior should be low-key. The main reason is that the interior layout follows Audi’s family style to a great extent, and at first glance, it may even feel that it is not much different from Audi A6L. But at the same time, a large number of carbon fiber decorative boards, scattered red leather and red double stitching everywhere in the car undoubtedly reveal the wild and unruly nature that a high-performance car should have.

　　In terms of internal configuration, RS 6 is quite rich. Electric panoramic sunroof, head-up display, sports style leather seat, rear sunshade, air conditioning in the car, automatic parking and adaptive cruise are all equipped. Although these equipments are not very high-tech and avant-garde, after all, this is a station wagon with main performance, and we don’t need to be too demanding on configuration.

　　● Space: The ride performance is satisfactory, and the luggage compartment volume shows great advantages.

　　The editor with a height of 180cm sits in the driver’s seat and adjusts the seat to the lowest position. At this time, the head space is more than one punch; On the premise that the front seat remains unchanged, the editor sits in the back seat. We can see that there are about four fingers in the head space and four fingers in the knee space. It can be said that in terms of seating space, this performance is still satisfactory.

　　Let’s take a look at the performance of the luggage compartment space. On the premise of not putting down the rear seat, the conventional volume of RS 6 is 565L, which can be expanded to 1680L after putting down the rear seat, and the rear seat can basically be kept flush with the luggage compartment floor. At this time, the advantages of RS 6 as a station wagon are fully demonstrated: after putting down the seat, the maximum storage space at the rear of the car reaches 1966mm, the width is 1155mm, and the height reaches 720mm, so that

　　● Power: 4.0T twin-turbo engine with 8-speed automatic manual transmission.

　　As a performance car, the RS 6 Avant is equipped with a twin-turbo V8 engine with a displacement of 3993mL. We have seen this engine in Audi S6, S7, S8 and RS 7, and its maximum power on the RS 6 Avant is 560 HP (412 kW)/5,700-6,600 rpm. The maximum torque is 700 Nm /1750-5500rpm. Matching the engine is an 8-speed automatic manual transmission from ZF. The officially announced 0-100 km/h acceleration time of RS 6 Avant is only 3.9 seconds.

　　The RS 6 is equipped with a five-link independent front suspension and a trapezoidal independent rear suspension, and comes standard with an air suspension that can adjust the hardness and height. The driving mode is Audi’s proud quattro four-wheel drive system, which makes RS 6 as a performance car easier to drive. This is another charm of RS 6.

　　● Rich optional configuration

　　In addition, the RS 6 Avant also provides rich optional configurations, which can provide very personalized customization solutions for potential car owners. Audi listed the relevant information in detail in Tmall’s official flagship store (click to enter the RS 6 Avant new car deposit page), and here we extracted some main configurations and their prices, as shown in the following table:

　　As we can see from the above table, the prices of some configurations are not low, such as the ceramic brake disc with an optional price of 132,000 yuan, the Bang & Olufsen audio system with an optional price of 82,000 yuan, and the carbon fiber style bag with an optional price of 72,800 yuan. Personalized customization, a very common marketing technique in ultra-luxury brands, has also been used by Audi on RS 6.

　　■ Test scores

　　Previously, my colleague Peng Chuwen had already got the RS 6 test car and had a related test (click to read the test article). The final acceleration score of this RS 6 test car we got was 3.88 seconds, which was better than the official 3.9 seconds.

　　We also did the 0-400-meter acceleration test. The RS 6 took 12.2 seconds and the tail speed reached 188 km/h.. The result is not bad, although it is still worse than that brave RS 7 two years ago, but the acceleration time is shorter than P85D, CLS 63 AMG and other models.

　　The RS 6 vehicle we tested is equipped with ceramic brake disc, which looks more attractive and has excellent thermal attenuation resistance, but its working temperature will be higher than that of metal. Although the measured braking distance of 37.15m can be considered as an excellent category, it can only be considered as a performance car, which is also related to its own weight of more than 2 tons.

　　■ Test drive review

　　After testing the RS 6, Peng Chuwen thought that he could use "real split personality" to describe the impression left by this high-performance station wagon. He believes that on the one hand, even if the test drive of this real car is equipped with RS sports suspension, the comfort and handling performance of RS 6 are very good in comfort mode, which is even a bit similar to Audi A6L, like an understanding warm man.

　　Once switched to the dynamic mode, the RS 6 will change its personality, the steering wheel feedback will obviously become heavier, the steering ratio will also increase, the throttle response will become more positive, and the suspension will be so hard that people will doubt whether they were driving the same car just now, and the exhaust system will be activated accordingly, even when they are idling, they can clearly hear the buzz in the car (interested friends can click on the micro-test video at the end of the article to perceive this new product more stereoscopically).

　　As for motivation, that is its strength. Even drivers who are not familiar with the track can easily push the speed above 250km/h on the big straight of this F1 track. In addition, thanks to the four-wheel drive system, the vehicle will not get out of control even if the accelerator is stepped on at will when cornering. In a word, if you have perfect driving skills, this car can show your ability better. If you are average or even a novice, it won’t make you lose face in track day activities, just like hanging up.

　　■ Product background

"First generation Audi RS 6 Avant (C5)" "Second generation Audi RS 6 Avant (C6)"

"Third generation Audi RS 6 Avant(C7), before minor change"

　　The first generation Audi RS 6 is the top model from the C5 platform of Volkswagen Group (1997-2004). The first one was a five-door station wagon (2002-2004), followed by a four-door sedan (2002.4-2004.5). As soon as RS 6 appeared, it was Audi’s "strongest production car" at that time. Although its performance was not outstanding and its appearance was not much different from that of ordinary A6, it was still remembered by many fans. The second generation model is based on C6 platform (2004-2011), and it also has two body structures, five-door travel and four-door sedan. It is equipped with a 5.0-liter V10 engine similar to Lamborghini Gallardo and equipped with quattro four-wheel drive system, which makes it easier to control than competing products. It is also this generation of RS 6 models that began to flow into the domestic market through informal channels, giving domestic car fans the opportunity to own it, and things are rare, and the reputation of RS 6 began to spread among domestic car enthusiasts at this time. The RS 6 launched today is actually a mid-term modified model of the third-generation RS 6 Avant, which was actually launched overseas in 2013 (click to read "Still hope to quench your thirst?" See the new Audi RS 6 from another perspective and understand the origin of the title of "God Car".

　　■ Competing models

　　"Old Mercedes -AMG E 63 Travel Edition" and "BMW M5"

　　Strictly speaking, Audi RS 6 Avant has no real competitors in China. Because its most direct competitor is Mercedes -AMG E63 Travel Edition, the new generation AMG E 63 Travel Edition has not yet been released, and this model has not been listed and sold in the domestic market before; Although BMW M5 can be regarded as a direct competitor of RS 6, it can not be regarded as a direct competitor of RS 6 Avant in a strict sense because the former does not have a travel version at present. From this point of view, the Audi RS 6 Avant, which is "invincible in the domestic market", is bound to be more sought after.

　　■ Summary

　　There are many fascinating places in RS 6 Avant, which not only has the special body structure of station wagon, but also looks unassuming and full of feelings. At the same time, exaggerated front and rear encirclement, fierce front and rear headlight groups, large rims and large exhaust create a very aggressive impression from microscopic details. It can not only make you, as a husband and father, take your wife, children and parents to wander comfortably in the traffic; At the same time, it can also let you indulge in the right occasions, step on the accelerator deeply and leave the traffic behind, and enjoy the pleasure and excitement brought by killing everything. Today, the official listing of RS 6 Avant allows everyone to finally enjoy themselves. Is it enjoyable to think about it? (Text/car home Liu Weiwei)

When choosing a car, everyone knows that the gearbox is a very important configuration. It directly affects the driving experience and fuel economy of vehicles. Today, let’s talk about the most mainstream gearboxes on the market: AT (automatic gearbox), CVT (continuously variable gearbox), MT (manual gearbox) and dual clutch gearbox. What are their advantages and disadvantages? Who is the real "king"? Let’s find out!

1. AT (automatic gearbox)

First, let’s take a look AT the AT gearbox, that is, the automatic gearbox. The working principle of AT gearbox is to automatically select the appropriate gear according to the vehicle speed and engine speed. The advantage of this gearbox is that it is easy to operate, especially when driving in the city. Frequent starting and stopping make many drivers feel tired, and AT gearbox can easily cope with it.

However, the AT gearbox is not without its shortcomings. Because of its complex structure, the maintenance cost is relatively high. In some old models, AT gearbox may have the problem of shift delay or frustration. However, many modern AT gearboxes have done quite well and can provide a smooth driving experience.

2. CVT (continuously variable gearbox)

Next is the CVT, which is the continuously variable gearbox. CVT uses the combination of pulley and steel belt, which can realize stepless transmission ratio. This means that the vehicle can maintain the optimal engine speed when accelerating, providing better power output and fuel economy.

The advantages of CVT are very obvious, its ride comfort is very good, and drivers can hardly feel the existence of gear shifting, which is very suitable for urban commuting. In addition, CVT usually performs well in fuel economy and is suitable for consumers who pursue energy conservation.

Of course, CVT also has some shortcomings. The durability of CVT may be affected by long-term high-load driving. Some people think that the dynamic response of CVT is not fast enough when overtaking. Generally speaking, CVT is suitable for friends who want to drive smoothly.

3. MT (manual gearbox)

After talking about automatic gearbox, let’s take a look at MT, that is, manual gearbox. For drivers who like to control, MT is simply a "treasure land". Manual gearbox allows you to master the power output of the vehicle more accurately by controlling the shift by the driver himself, which is incomparable to other gearboxes.

MT is very common in sports cars because of its simple structure, low maintenance cost and lighter weight than similar automatic gearboxes. It is worth mentioning that the manual gearbox also performs well in fuel economy, because the driver can adjust the speed as needed at any time.

However, the disadvantages of MT also exist. For people who are not familiar with manual transmission, it may be a little troublesome to get on the road, especially in congested traffic conditions, and frequent gear shifting is very easy to make people tired. In addition, the cost of learning is relatively high, and many young people may stay away from manual transmission.

4. Dual clutch gearbox

Finally, we have to mention the dual clutch gearbox. Dual-clutch gearbox (DCT) can be regarded as an upgraded version of automatic gearbox, which can shift gears quickly through two clutches. In this way, there is almost no delay in the transmission of power, which brings an excellent acceleration experience to the driver.

The biggest advantage of dual-clutch gearbox is that it can greatly improve the dynamic performance of the vehicle, which is very suitable for friends who like driving. At the same time, the dual clutch also performs well in fuel consumption, taking into account performance and economy.

Of course, this kind of gearbox also has some shortcomings. Because of its complex mechanism, some faults may occur after long-term use, especially when driving at low speed, and the sense of frustration is obvious. This is also the reason why many consumers are hesitant when choosing.

5. Summary: Who is your best choice?

After some analysis, I believe everyone has a deeper understanding of these four gearboxes. So, who is better? In fact, there is no absolute answer. The key is to look at your needs and driving habits.

If you pay more attention to convenience and commute frequently, then AT or CVT is definitely your good choice. AT provides a stable and reliable driving experience, while CVT performs better in fuel economy.

For friends who love driving and pursue a sense of control, MT is undoubtedly the best choice. It allows you to enjoy every shift, whether on the mountain road or on the track, it can bring you an extraordinary experience.

And if you want to balance performance and efficiency, the dual clutch gearbox is very suitable for you. Its fast gear shifting and good fuel consumption performance can bring you great driving pleasure.

Generally speaking, it is very important to know your driving needs and habits when choosing a gearbox. I hope today’s sharing will help you make a more wise choice in the future car purchase and find the one that suits you best!
