Audi RS6 Avant And What Became Of The Station Wagon: Podcast #21

What is there to say about a 591-horsepower station wagon? Your hosts say it all in this week's episode of the Motor1.com Podcast. Global Editor-in-Chief John Neff and writers Chris Bruce and Christopher Smith discuss the new Audi RS6 Avant wagon that promises to rekindle our love affair with the wagon. 

It's a love affair that needs rekindling, as station wagons continue to shrink as a share of new cars sold. That's despite some excellent examples still on sale. Listen as the hosts each give their own explanation about what's happened to wagons in the U.S., while also sharing a few of their favorites. By the end, it's clear that a few carmakers are carrying the torch for wagons and deserve most of the credit for their continued existence.
