Audi A6 2022, The A6’s two engines—a 261-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and a 335-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6—are more than capable of hauling this mid-size sedan around town. The engine’s stop-start mechanism and other ancillary equipment are powered by a 12- or 48-volt starter/alternator in both powertrains. A seven-speed automatic transmission is standard, as is Quattro all-wheel drive. The V-6 provides plenty of power for merging and passing on the highway: it went from zero to 60 mph in just 4.8 seconds on our test track. Despite this impressive performance, it falls short of outrunning its main competitors, the BMW 540i xDrive and Mercedes-Benz E450 4Matic. The 540i finished in 4.5 seconds, while the Benz took 4.6. The A6 is more of a luxury car than a sports sedan, thanks to its comfortable ride. We liked the way it handled and how crisp the steering was, but we never felt fully engaged while tackling tricky portions of road.
The EPA gave the A6 good fuel economy ratings, and choosing the V-6 over the turbo four-cylinder isn’t much of a compromise in terms of efficiency. The four-cylinder A6 scored 32 mpg on the interstate, just three more than the V-6. During our 200-mile highway fuel-economy test, however, our V-6-powered test vehicle got an amazing 32 mpg. This puts it ahead of the Benz (30 mpg) and BMW (31 mpg), but behind the ultra-efficient Lexus ES350, which achieved an amazing 39 mpg in the same test. Visit the EPA’s website for additional information on the A6’s fuel economy.
Audi has a number of basic and optional driver-assistance systems, such as a system that monitors traffic to prevent you from stepping out into the path of a moving vehicle. Visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites for more information on the A6’s crash-test results. The following are important safety features:
- Automatic emergency braking is standard.
- Lane departure warning is standard.
- Adaptive cruise control is an option.
