In-Game Information[]
Originally, this vehicle was named as the 2021 Autti SR8 Wagon, with "Autti" being changed to "Avantismo" at a later time. After over a year of existing in-game, it was removed along with all other cars with the "Avantismo" brand name. The RS 6 Avant made its return to the game as a licensed vehicle on May 31, 2024, using its official badges and official name.
The current model has an increased design quality compared to the original model, due to being a licensed car. Additionally, the vehicle has a lower price, different performance stats, and fewer seats than its predecessor.
Performance[]
The RS 6 Avant is essentially an improved Audi RS 3 Limousine due to having similar stats in acceleration, handling, and braking, but having a higher top speed. It is also an easy vehicle to drive, but this is due to the relative slowness of the car. The price of the RS 6 Avant puts it in an awkward position, being between the TVR Cerbera and De Tomaso Pantera GT5, both of which are superior vehicles.
As a result, the RS 6 Avant, while a fair vehicle to drive, is outperformed by vehicles both above and below its price. Players should consider the De Tomaso Pantera GT5 or TVR Cerbera depending on their budget.
Never buy this as a grinding car because of its difficulty accompanied with its poor acceleration and top speed. It struggles on Drag, Highway and Cross Country and above-average on Circuit. It is better bought as a collector's car after having a good grinding car.
Much like the Viper ACR and the AMG GT Black Series, this car is guaranteed to waste seconds from a simple crash.Bodykits[]
There are no bodykits on the licensed version, but it formerly had one prior to its removal.

- While the original unlicensed model had a headlight startup animation, the licensed model does not. The licensed model also only has 4 seats instead of the previous capacity of 7.
