Audi A6 Review

The Audi A6 might be well past its prime but it still looks classy and premium. Where the A6 can’t hide its vintage is on the inside. The cabin looks last-gen and you won’t find too many cutting-edge gizmos in here either. Front seat comfort is fair but the all-important rear seat is short on thigh support. What the chauffeur-driven will like is the button-operated option to move the front passenger seat forward to free up legroom at the back.
The Audi A6’s petrol and diesel engines are both 190hp, 2.0-litre units that drive the front wheels; there’s no Quattro all-wheel drive. Both engines deliver power in a linear manner but where the petrol engine is quieter, the diesel feels stronger. The dual-clutch automatic transmissions also work really well, even if there is the odd hesitation to downshift at times. On its standard fit air suspension, the A6 does thud through bumps and doesn’t feel quite as flat as you’d like at speeds. The option to raise the suspension does come handy, though.
