Last updated August 4, 2026

About the 2024 Audi S6
C8 generation (2019-2025 U.S. gas S6 sedan), mid-cycle refresh year.
Audi positions the S6 as the discreet high-performance version of the A6: a fast luxury sport sedan that pairs strong V6 power and standard all-wheel drive with a quiet, upscale cabin and long-distance comfort. It targets drivers who want sharper acceleration and a more athletic setup than the regular A6 without stepping into the louder, more extreme RS side of the lineup. Year-round traction, everyday usability, and understated design are central to its appeal.
The Premium trim keeps the S6 formula focused: a 444-hp twin-turbo V6, all-wheel drive, an eight-speed automatic, air suspension, sport seats, and a 10.1-inch touchscreen. Premium Plus adds a quieter, richer cabin and more driver assistance, while Prestige tops the range with a head-up display, remote parking assistance, soft-closing doors, and upgraded headlights.
