The scorepoints the BMW M5 Touring lost the most to the Audi RS6 Avant in categories Fuelconsumption / Envorviroment with 17 p (of 20) vs 14 for the M5.

Vs the Merces E63 AMG the M5 lost scores mostly on Luggage space / versatility where the AMG scored 20 (out of 20) and the M5 scored 14. The E63 probably got really gih there also thansk to it's 55 liter larger trunks space (2030 liters for the E63). The M5 also lost many points on visibility (18 vs 15 out of a 20 max) and also Warranty (13 vs 9 out of 20).


For everyday the Mercedes E63 AMG won the test. The fastest aroudn the track was the Audi RS6. The BMW M5 Touring was a fascinating ride, a drivers machine. But in everyday driving the SMG auto gearboxfeature was cumbersome in auto mode.

Pretty much expected results,the E63 is the easiest to live with,M5 T the sportiest and surprisingly the RS6 was the fastest around a track despite being the heaviest,well done Audi

4WD is fast (but not always fun) around a track but you need more power.

With all that power advantage the Audi really no faster than the M5 at the track or the E63 in most of the speed contests. Seems a waste.

Tumbo, now you must be happy. RS6 fastest car to 200km/h (although not by much).

Yeah, quite surprising/not-so-surprising.

And don't forget the premium you have to pay for RS6 over E63 and M5. I won't be surprised if RS6 is close to $20k more than the competition here in the US.

Re: Auto Bild Test:M5 Touring, Audi RS6 Avant, E63 AMG

That would be shocking wouldn't it! I can see why we don't get the wagon, but the sedan had better be available in the U.S. and it wouldn't hurt it to be considerably sportier than the wagon IMO.

Re: Auto Bild Test:M5 Touring, Audi RS6 Avant, E63 AMG

I wasn't fan of the RS6 and it's now confirmed. Not very sporty and involving but not a GT either, immense power reserve but not amazing performance figures and probably an astronomic price. The typical unattractive ultra compromised car.
