Today, from a market once brimming with affordable options like the Subaru Legacy Wagon, Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, and Dodge Magnum, just five pricey station wagons remain on sale for the 2026 model year. The station wagon was once a very major part of the mainstream market, and a default family hauler for the budget-conscious masses.Today, the few remaining models all reside in the luxury space, and the cheapest one you'll find will still run you $53,395, freight-in, for starters. Two are flagship halo products, all have AWD, and one machine in particular could cost you well over $230,000 when totally optioned out. Below, we're covering the 5 remaining options in the wagon world, and what you'll pay for each. 2026 Audi A6 Allroad / RS6 Audi's Two-Wagon Solution Includes An Avant For The History Books Grey 2026 Audi RS 6 Performance sideAudi's current wagon offerings are both members of the A6 range, itself starting at $64,100 for the standard sedan configuration. The A6 allroad Quattro adds a lifted suspension, wagon body, and various other upgrades from $73,100 (plus $1,295 destination). Adaptive air suspension comes standard. Inside, look for standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a standard Bang & Olufsen stereo. The mild-hybrid turbocharged V6 is smooth and efficient, able to boost throttle response and refinement considerably in low-speed driving. The electric motor helps smooth out the start-stop function as well, further polishing the drive. This wagon is expert at delivering a high-end, all-weather driving experience, with extra ride height available at a button press for added confidence when required.If you're after one of the ultimate station wagons ever built, Audi's got you covered, too. The RS6 Avant gets 621 horsepower, courtesy of a 4-liter twin-turbo V8. With Quattro AWD and an automatic 8-speed, drivers can expect 0-60 in 3.3 seconds, from one of the highest-performing wagons ever built. Today, one of Germany's hottest-ever wagons will run you $130,700 for starters, and it could very well be the last of its kind. 2026 Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain / E53 Hybrid Wagon All Mercedes Wagons Are Standard With Hybrid Power 2026 Mercedes-Benz E450 4MATIC All-TerrainLike the A6 Allroad, the Mercedes E 450 All-Terrain Wagon is slightly jacked up, wears more rugged cladding, and caters to a shopper after station wagon proportions and functionality with some added clearance and confidence for off-road use. The famous M256 straight-six hybrid turbo engine puts 375 smooth and efficient horsepower on tap, and the integrated electric motor enhances low-speed response and refinement. This type of hybrid, like the A6 Allroad above, can't be plugged in to recharge. All power required to recharge the battery is generated automatically while you drive around. Ride height can be adjusted at the touch of a button, lifting the car for off-road settings or deep snow, or automatically lowering the ride height for better aerodynamics at higher speeds. Pricing from $78,300 (plus $1,350 destination).If 375 horsepower doesn't quite get your heart racing, the AMG E 53 Hybrid Wagon might just be the ticket. It's a pricey one, starting from $93,350 (plus $1,350 destination). With 577 horsepower, 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, and the short-range, all-electric capability of a modern plug-in hybrid (PHEV), the E 53 AMG Hybrid Wagon can function as an all-electric for your shorter trips, and a rocket-propelled plaything on your favorite winding highway. The upgraded battery and electric motor give the completely beltless 3-liter straight-six a big power boost, and can drive the AMG E 53 Hybrid Wagon entirely on stored electricity for up to 41 miles.Plugging in this type of hybrid is never mandatory: as long as there's fuel in the tank, it's ready to drive. Regular recharging at home or work can get many drivers off of gasoline for their daily commute, dramatically stretching out the distance between gas station visits. 2026 BMW M5 Touring The Mighty M5 Gets A Backpack 2026 BMW M5 TouringThe BMW M5 Touring is like a BMW M5 wearing a backpack. This is a rolling technological toolbox of go-fast goodies, wrapped up in the body of a modern station wagon. Not only is it the most powerful BMW wagon ever built, it also gives shoppers an opportunity to take in the M5 experience with cargo space to spare, and bridges the gap in BMW's M lineup between sedan and SUV models with a rare configuration that has exclusivity built in.The 4.4-liter 'hot-vee' V8 engine is boosted by a pair of inboard-mounted turbochargers with liquid charge cooling, as well as a powerful electric motor bolted to its backside. Total output is 717 horsepower, which flows to all four wheels by default. Drivers can disengage the front axle at a button press for a fully rear-drive experience if they wish. They can also recharge at home overnight, using pure electric power for commuting and reserving gasoline use only for longer trips. The same electrification technologies that help make the M5 Touring so fast, therefore, also help make it easier on fuel. Better performance using less fuel has long been the name of BMW's game, after all.Pricing starts around $129,350, including delivery. 2026 Volvo V60 Cross Country The Most Reasonable Pick On Your Page 2026 Volvo V60 Cross CountryThe Volvo V60 Cross Country is probably the most sensible buy on our list, undercutting the next most affordable choice in this report by some $20,000.
