The Car for This Stay

Why the Audi RS6 works in Montreux

Montreux is known for its festival, but drivers know it as the place where the lake road, the A9 and the climbs into the Vaud Alps all begin. The RS6 Avant is built for that: an estate that carries five people and four suitcases, with a twin-turbo V8 for the moments the road clears. If you rent an Audi RS6 in Montreux, the same car handles a family lunch in Vevey and a dawn run up to Col des Mosses before anyone else is awake.

  • Over the Mosses, home through Gruyère Climb from Aigle through Le Sépey to the pass, drop down to Château-d'Oex, then come home via Bulle and the A12 to Vevey. It makes a half-day of proper corners, with the cafés at Les Mosses as a natural stop.
  • Lake road out, A9 home The old road through Clarens, Vevey and Cully is slow and beautiful; the A9 above it is quick and quiet. Take one for the view and the other when the children have fallen asleep in the back.
  • A real family car With five aboard, the Avant still takes four large suitcases. The RS6 can be the only car for the week rather than a toy that stays in the hotel garage.
  • Calm when it needs to be Selectable drive modes soften the car for the Grand-Rue and the hotel ramp, then sharpen it for the hairpins up to Glion above town.

Local know-how

Good to know in Montreux

Glacier 3000 the scenic way

The glacier is about 1h15 away via Aigle and Les Diablerets, with the last stretch climbing to Col du Pillon. Park at the cable car base and bring a jacket: there is snow at the top even in July.

Swiss speeding law

In Switzerland, extreme speeding is a criminal offence rather than a fine, and fixed and mobile cameras are common across Vaud. The RS6 can do far more than the limit; the handover briefing covers where that matters.

The passes in winter

Col des Mosses is open through the winter, but snow can arrive from November. Chains become compulsory where signs say so. Share your dates and we prepare the car for the season.

Questions

Audi RS6 in Montreux: questions we get asked

Will a family of five and our luggage fit in the RS6?

Five people and four large suitcases, yes. For longer stays with more bags, you can pair the RS6 with a Mercedes V-Class: the family rides in the van, the driver takes the estate.

What is the best drive from Montreux in the RS6?

Our favourite climbs Col des Mosses, drops to Château-d'Oex and comes home through Bulle, a half-day with a lunch stop. For a shorter evening outing, Lausanne and the Ouchy waterfront are about 30 minutes away.

Is the RS6 a good car for winter around Montreux?

Yes. Quattro all-wheel drive makes it a confident winter car, and with winter tyres it handles the climb to Les Mosses or a ski day in Gstaad. Allow extra time when snow is forecast.

Do you suggest a route when you hand over the car?

Yes. At handover we go through the Mosses and Gruyère circuit or a lake-and-Corniche route, with fuel stops, lunch ideas and the stretches where cameras are common.
