The 2014 to 2018 Audi S6 received top marks across all NHTSA crash-test categories for US-market vehicles. The sedan earned five stars overall, along with five-star ratings in frontal crash, side crash, rollover, and side pole tests. NHTSA applies these ratings across model years until a significant redesign occurs, so this five-star performance applies to the entire 2014 through 2018 range.
