Even today, the SUV continues to offer a strong combination of performance, practicality and road presence.

Best For

  • Large family travel
  • Long highway drives
  • Buyers wanting strong diesel torque

Not Ideal For

  • Buyers seeking the latest technology
  • Mostly city commute
  • Buyers prioritising smooth gearshifts

Pros Cons of Audi A6

Pros

  • New-Gen Tech
  • Increase In Dimensions
  • Refined Engine

Cons

  • No Diesel Engine
  • Limited Interior Storage
  • Stiff Ride Quality 

Verdict

The new 5th generation Audi A6 sedan impresses on several levels and leaves its predecessors shortcomings far behind. On the inside the A6 will truly impress as the cabin has moved up several notches on not just design, materials and gadgets, but most importantly - on comfort. The last car had a very awkward rear bench and the new A6 will pamper its rear-seat biased owners with a very comfortable bench and seatback angle. The A6 will be a credible and robust addition to the Audi sedan portfolio.
