Every station wagon you can buy in America in 2025

For tasteful buyers who enjoy the thrill of spirited driving but are frugally realistic about their everyday vehicular needs, station wagons have long been a proven solution. Their ability to combine the agile driving dynamics of sports saloons with functionality and space comparable to SUVs has earned the body style a cult-like following in North America, and the niche has seen noticeable growth in more recent years.

Historically, many of the most beloved station wagons, such as the Audi RS2 Avant and the Nissan Stagea 260RS Autech, were never offered to North American buyers, thanks to our market's stark preference for sedans and, eventually, crossovers and SUVs. In recent times, however, more manufacturers have decided to export their wagons stateside in an effort to serve a growing customer base that requires the usability of SUVs but resents their inherently diminished driving dynamics.

To serve our market's preferences as effectively as possible, most automakers still don't offer traditional station wagons in North America. Instead, our station wagon offerings have been broken up into two distinct styles: high-performance super wagons and crossover-like, off-road adventure wagons.

These two extremes represent both ends of the station wagon spectrum, and buyers can decide for themselves whether they prioritize sporty driving dynamics or SUV-like functionality while still retaining the essence of both options.

The following list explores every brand-new station wagon that you can still purchase in the United States for the 2025 model year. It includes both high-performance super wagons and more rugged (but still sporty) protective-cladded adventure wagons and reflects a diverse variety of powertrains, price points, and purposes.

2025 Audi A4 Allroad Quattro - $47,600 MSRP

Audi's A4 Allroad Quattro distills the utilitarian ethos of its A6 Allroad big brother in a more modestly sized package. Perfect for those who live in dense urban centers but still like to adventure on the weekends, the A4 Allroad Quattro blends relative compactness and the efficiency of a four-cylinder engine with the athletic charisma of the A4 sedan.

Powered by a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder, the A4 Allroad Quattro benefits from a more-than-sufficient 261 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. It has enough power to comfortably maintain highway speeds, and its combined 26-mile-per-gallon fuel economy will keep your financial advisor at ease.

The A4 Allroad Quattro is a fabulous, premium alternative to a crossover with superior style and offers an excellent driving experience. However, as the baby of Audi's wagon bunch, it leaves much to be desired in terms of space and power. Thankfully, if it's not quite enough for you, Audi's long-roof selection doesn't stop here.

2025 Audi A6 Allroad Quattro - $70,500 MSRP

The Audi A6 Allroad Quattro is a legend amongst wagon enthusiasts. Audi previously offered an A6 Allroad in North America with the C5 generation from 1999 to 2005, and despite its notoriously unreliable air suspension system and its temperamental 2.7L twin-turbocharged V6 and optional 4.2L V8, it still has a cult following to this day.

The A6 Allroad earned its reputation because of its supreme versatility. Although the air suspension system's long-term reliability has been questionable, it allowed the wagon to transform from a lowered sport estate to a lifted tank-like SUV with the push of a button.

This trick suspension system, matched with powerful grunt and a well-made interior environment that truly felt like a home away from home, earned the hearts of enthusiasts who don't mind replacing the odd suspension tower once in a while.

The A6 Allroad returned to the North American market for its current generation, and although it still seems like a bit of a hidden gem, it wouldn't surprise me if it earns a similar cult following in a few years' time. The recipe for the A6 Allroad remains unchanged, only refined.

Motivated by a twin-turbocharged 3.0L V6, the contemporary A6 Allroad produces 335 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque – more than enough to get your heart racing or to haul around your whole family and their anxiously over-packed luggage.

2025 Audi RS6 Avant Performance - $126,600 MSRP

The wagon, the myth, the legend. If your kids are extremely late for school, or you'd like to attempt a Cannonball Run record with all your friends, the Audi RS6 Avant Performance might be right for you. Please consult your doctor first if you have a previous heart condition – you're in for a wild ride.

The Audi RS6 Avant Performance is no joke. Audi has taken a humble, premium family estate car and given it genuine supercar abilities. Its twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 pumps out a ridiculous 621 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. If you'd like even more serious performance, the RS6 Avant can be had in a "GT" flavor, with slightly less weight and a more focused chassis.

2025 BMW M5 Touring - $121,500 MSRP

BMW's all-new 2025 M5 Touring aims to outdo Audi's RS6 with a whopping 717 horsepower twin-turbocharged 4.4L V8, but this does come at a cost. I don't mean a financial cost, though; the M5 Touring weighs almost 600 pounds more than Audi's RS6 Avant. That being said, even though the new M5's weight is a concern for many, its plug-in hybrid setup might make more sense as a station wagon compared to the sedan.

The beauty of station wagons is their ability to combine exciting performance with liveable amenities, and the inclusion of a plug-in hybrid powertrain does just that. The setup allows for astronomical horsepower figures while simultaneously making the vehicle more city-friendly.

Its plug-in hybrid tech makes for a more friendly daily commute and a fantastically terrifying pedal-to-the-metal experience, even if it comes at the expense of somewhat inferior handling dynamics.

2025 Kia EV6 - $TBD

Hear me out – the Kia EV6 is a station wagon. It (kind of) has a D-pillar, its roof isn't cartoonishly high, and it's noticeably longer than a hatchback. Don't take my word for it, even the EPA officially classifies the EV6 as a "small station wagon". Pricing has yet to be officially announced for 2025, but the 2024 model started at $42,600, for reference.

Kia's EV6 offers an exceptionally well-rounded package for buyers who are searching for an affordable EV but still want to enjoy the benefits of a station wagon. It's not the only electric vehicle on this list, but it's the most affordable by a significant margin. It might not be as eager for rugged adventures as many of the petrol-powered or hybrid options on this list, but for general urban use, the EV6 is a solid contender.

2025 Mercedes-Benz E 450 4MATIC All-Terrain
Mercedes-Benz

2025 Mercedes-Benz E 450 4MATIC All-Terrain - $76,100 MSRP

The E-Class wagon is no stranger to the North American market, and its stateside presence dates all the way back to 1976 with the legendary W123 generation. Having established its reputation for having almost indestructible build quality, the E-Class Estate has long been a favorite amongst wagon enthusiasts.

Beginning with the previous generation (W213) E-Class, Mercedes-Benz began to offer the "All-Terrain" variant of the wagon, directly influenced by Audi's Allroad estates. Enhancements included a heightened ride, protective body cladding, and an overall more rugged, SUV-like appearance.

For the 2025 model year, the E-Class estate returns to North America only as the All-Terrain variant, which has proven to be significantly more popular stateside compared to the more traditional wagon style.

The E-Class All-Terrain is noticeably pricier than direct competitors in base form, but its vastly luxurious, technologically vibrant interior cabin, unique rear-facing third-row jump seats, and silky smooth, mild-hybrid 3.0L turbocharged inline-six that produces 375 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, leave little to be desired and make for a wonderfully well-rounded package. We're hoping a revamped Mercedes-AMG E-Class Estate will return to our market soon as well.

2025 Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo

2025 Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo - $149,800 MSRP

Arguably, one of the most aesthetically attractive wagons on sale today is the 2025 Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo. It's blisteringly quick, too, with an incredible 690 horsepower and 582 lb-ft readily available on tap to propel this station wagon from 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds.

Unfortunately, Porsche has discontinued its Panamera Sport Turismo "überwagon," leaving only the Taycan to fill the long-roof position in their lineup. If you're willing to sacrifice the brutish, twin-turbocharged V8 for an all-electric powertrain, however, the Taycan Sport Turismo offers a better-looking package, and you'll never have to pay for fuel again!

Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo & Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo
Porsche

2025 Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo - $111,100 - $211,700 MSRP

Porsche also offers the Taycan as a "Cross Turismo," a more rugged, adventure-ready station wagon similar to the Audi Allroad and Mercedes-Benz All Terrain wagons. Variants range from the more modest Taycan 4 Cross Turismo to the obscenely powerful Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo, with a maximum power output of 938 horsepower.

Don't be fooled by the name, though, as there are no turbochargers to be found here. All-wheel drive comes standard with the Taycan Cross Turismo, which means it's ready to transport you to your favorite ski resort at a moment's notice.

It's incredibly quiet yet incredibly quick and makes for an even more liveable alternative to the Taycan Sport Turismo thanks to its increased ride height, protective body cladding, and optional roof rails.

2025 Subaru Outback - $29,010 - $42,910 MSRP

I'll be the first to admit that the Subaru Outback really isn't much of a station wagon anymore. Even Subaru markets the model as an SUV, and its bulky proportions and high roofline reiterate this point. That being said, its shape still resembles the proportions of a station wagon and the model has remained relatively true to its roots in terms of its capabilities.

The Outback has long been the go-to choice for an affordable, rugged station wagon that will happily take a harsh beating for you. Models from more recent years are, unfortunately, equipped with CVT transmissions, but simulated shift points and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters alleviate much of the boredom that would otherwise result from such a dreadful gearbox.

The Outback comes standard with a modest and efficient 182 horsepower 2.5L horizontally-opposed four-cylinder, but if plenty of highway driving and rough off-road terrain is on the menu, an optional turbocharged 2.4L four-cylinder can be had with 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque.

2025 Toyota Crown Signia - $43,590 - $47,990 MSRP

You may argue with me here and complain about the fact that the Crown Signia is clearly a crossover, but I would actually agree with you. That being said, if the Outback belongs on this list, then the Toyota Crown Signia certainly deserves a place, too. It's longer proportions and its strategic placement within Toyota's lineup hint at the Crown Signia's wagon intentions, and it's a genuinely solid offering at its price point.

Its starting price is slightly higher than that of the Subaru Outback, but with a standard 240 horsepower, 2.5L mild-hybrid powertrain, and all-wheel drive, its performance is similar to the Outback's optional turbocharged power plant but with superior fuel efficiency and smoother operation.

The Crown Signia's ride height, raised roofline, and all-wheel drive give it the rugged credentials required to compete with Subaru's Outback, but its styling steers more in the direction of subtle handsomeness rather than rugged toughness. Where the Outback looks more at home on wild dirt trails, the Crown Signia wouldn't look out of place at your local tennis club, even though it could secretly tackle similarly harsh terrain.

For the more conservative folks out there who feel the Outback's rugged appearance is too abrasive and offensive, the Crown Signia's styling offers a more subtle alternative that doesn't sacrifice much in terms of performance and capability. It's much more in tune with the real world and sits somewhere in the middle between a soft, traditional station wagon and a brutish, plastic-cladded, off-road adventure wagon.

2025 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered - $71,250 MSRP

Like Audi's A6 Avant, Volvo offers two extreme flavors of the V60 station wagon in North America: sport and utility. However, unlike Audi, Volvo has decided to offer these choices with its smaller wagon of the two, the V60.

Volvo has also taken a radical approach to its performance-oriented estate, the V60 Polestar Engineered. Its plug-in hybrid four-cylinder powertrain generates a stout 455 horsepower and 523 lb-ft of torque, and it is sent to all four wheels by an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The V60 Polestar Engineered attracts a very niche buyer. Most people looking for a performance wagon opt for a thirsty, fire-breathing V8 powertrain or, at the other extreme, a powerful, fully electric system. Plug-in hybrid four-cylinders typically represent the more well-rounded, daily-drivable vehicles.

Volvo has essentially produced a comfortable, efficient station wagon that could easily be your sole vehicle, tackling your everyday needs while retaining the ability to rip your literal face off with its acceleration when you're feeling frisky.

2025 Volvo V60 Cross Country - $50,300 MSRP

The other flavor of the Volvo V60 is the Cross Country. A common station wagon recipe these days, the Cross Country is essentially Volvo's version of "Allroad", "All Terrain", Outback, and "Cross Turismo". It seems plastic cladding and a factory lift kit help wagons sell in North America, and Volvo has made effective use of this strategy.

The V60 Cross Country benefits from a 247-horsepower turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder. It directly competes with Audi's A4 Allroad Quattro in terms of size and performance, and its price point reflects this as well. The Cross Country proves that size isn't everything, thanks to its effective use of space, but if you insist that bigger is better, Volvo still has something for you.

2025 Volvo V90 Cross Country - $59,800 MSRP

Volvo's V90 Cross Country is roughly $10,000 more expensive than the smaller V60. That may seem like a steep jump until you realize that Audi's A6 Allroad commands around an extra $10,000 on top of that. Of course, it doesn't pack as much punch as the Audi, making just 295 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque with a mild-hybrid, 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder powertrain.

That being said, it's not a massive power difference, and its size is directly comparable to the A6 Allroad as well. If you don't mind sacrificing 40 horsepower, the Volvo V90 Cross Country offers exceptional value for money, especially compared to Audi's A6 Allroad Quattro and the Mercedes-Benz E 450 4MATIC All-Terrain.

Final thoughts

Perhaps the death of the station wagon is not as imminent as once assumed. Although it's certainly not the strongest market segment, the currently available selection is wonderfully diverse and continues to grow. The wagons listed above offer excellent value for money, brilliant and unique blends of performance and functionality, and a distinct style that will set you apart from the SUV-driving masses.

Do you have a favorite wagon from this list, or do you think station wagons are just ugly and pointless? Do the Toyota Crown Signia and Kia EV6 deserve to be included here, or are these models too much of a stretch as station wagons?
