2018 AUDI A6 3.0T 55 TSFI 7AT FWD (340 HP)

Vehicle Overview

The midline sedan reached the 8th generation in 2018 with the launched of the new A6.

The A6 was a strong rival for the Mercedes E-Class and the BMW 5-Series.

The new A6 was offered in four trim levels: Premium, Sport, Premium Plus and Prestige.

The sportier version of the A6 was represented by the S6.

The Premium model looked good even if it was the base level, with the specific Audi aggressive front end and the sporty back with the beautifully designed taillights.

From the side, the A6 looked like a larger sedan. The base model also came with 18-inch alloy wheels.

The impeccably crafted interior was equipped with nice and soft leather upholstery and it was a nice combination of sportiness and luxury.

Heated seats were offered standard and offered great support and comfort for the driver and the passengers.

Plenty of room was offered and the back seats were great for adults as well, with decent legroom and headroom for a comfortable long journey.

The load area also offered great room for luggages.

The base version included a standard sunroof.

Performance wise, the A6 was available with two engines: an entry level 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged engine developing 252 hp and the more powerful 3.0 6-cylinder supercharged powerplant with 340 hp. Both engines were mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The A6 would have reached 100 kph in around 6.7 seconds with the 2.0-liter and around 5.1 seconds with the supercharged engine.

Even with the entry level engine, the A6 offered adequate power to offer a fun, comfortable ride.
