Audi Launches S6 And S7 Design Edition Package For 2023 Model Year

Audi is making the S6 sedan and the S7 fastback a little bit dapper for the 2023 model year by adding an appearance package called Design Edition to the list of options. It bundles several edition-specific exterior accents and a sportier-looking interior, among other features.

On the exterior, the Design Edition package adds a high-gloss Black optic package matched with Liquid Dark Chrome exterior accents, including the Audi rings, rear S6/S7 badges, front/rear bumpers, and roof. The Design Edition S6 and S7 come in the exclusive exterior color Arrow Gray with a Brilliant Black roof. If you don’t like this special shade, the other choices are: Brilliant and Mythos Black Metallic, Daytona Gray Pearl Effect, Firmament Blue Metallic, Florett Silver Metallic, Glacier White Metallic, Tango Red Metallic, and Ultra Blue Metallic.

Inside, the S6 and S7 Design Editions get red stitching and the gear selector, lower console, and knee pads are covered in Dinamica, a microfiber fabric. The Black S sport seats are covered in Valcona leather and the cars get a flat-bottomed Alcantara-covered heated steering wheel. To match the red stitching, the black seatbelts are edged with red.

There are no mechanical modifications, meaning both models are powered by a 2.9-litre V6 that relies on a pair of turbochargers and an electric-powered compressor (EPC) linked to a 48-volt mild-hybrid system to develop 444 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque. The six-cylinder spins the four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission and Audi’s permanent Quattro all-wheel-drive system.
