At first glance, the 2021 Porsche Panamera and 2021 Audi RS 6 Avant may seem very similar. However, there are great distinctions between the two cars. Let us take a look at what set them apart to help you make the right purchase decision.
Design & Style
In terms of design and style, both the Panamera and the RS 6 Avant boast an elegant and sporty look. However, standing at 2929 mm long and 4996 mm wide, the RS 6 Avant is a slightly smaller car than the Panamera. As such, it is easier to fit the RS 6 Avant into tight parking spots and maneuver around the carpark. However, with a larger chassis, the Panamera provides the driver with more boastful flamboyance, which is expected of a luxury sports car. Furthermore, the Panamera sits lower than the RS 6 Avant, which allows the driver and passengers to experience a sportier drive.
Technology & Safety
Both the Panamera and RS 6 Avant come in-built with infotainment technology, including AM/FM stereo, HD radio, MP3 player, auxiliary audio input, hard disk drive media storage, steering wheel audio controls, and navigation system. If you are on the traditional side and prefer to play your favorite CDs in the car, you will be glad to know that the Panamera has a CD player installed, unlike the RS 6 Avant. Furthermore, the RS 6 Avant also lacks the Apple CarPlay feature, which is available in the Panamera.
As safety comes first when driving, it is certainly one of the most important things to look out for when comparing cars. The Panamera and RS 6 Avant are equipped with safety features, such as driver air bag, passenger air bag, stability control, traction control, rollover protection bars, and 4-wheel disc brakes. However, the Panamera has auto levelling headlights that can adjust the angle at which they shine light to ensure that the road is always properly illuminated. This feature is missing from the RS 6 Avant.
Performance
Buyers of sports cars tend to enjoy quick acceleration and high power. As such, the performance of the Panamera is much better than that of the RS 6 Avant due to its higher horsepower. Compared to the RS 6 Avant’s 591 hp @ 6000 rpm, the Panamera has 690 hp @ 6000 rpm.
The Bottom Line
Overall, the Panamera is clearly the victor in all three aspects of comparison. While the Panamera is set at a higher price point, it is important that the buyer gets their money’s worth when making a big ticket purchase.
