Audi A6 car lease deals

Performance and features

There are four suspension options available on the A6, depending on the engine and trim level you choose. Beside the standard, there’s Sports Suspension that lowers the body by 20mm, Suspension with Damper Control that adds adaptive dampers, and the top-of-the-line Adaptive Air Suspension. The new car is significantly bigger than previous iterations, with the 12mm extended wheelbase offering generous legroom in the interior and a 530-litre boot. The driver-centric A6 also received a five-star rating from Euro NCAP thanks to its range of standard safety equipment, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assistance and optional blind spot monitoring.

Drivers can choose between two 3.0-litre six-cylinder engines, badged the 55 TFSI petrol and 50 TDI diesel, as well as the 2.0-litre 40 TDI diesel. The 55 TFSI and 40 TDI get a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearbox, while the 50 TDI has an eight-speed automatic transmission. Both the 3.0-litre engines have Quattro adaptive four-wheel drive, giving drivers the ability to switch to full all-wheel drive at the touch of a button. All three engines also utilise mild-hybrid technology consisting of a lithium-ion battery and belt alternator for smooth coasting, while front-wheel drive variants have Electronic Stabilization Control for added mastery behind the wheel.

Interior technology

All A6s benefit from Audi’s innovative infotainment system, which features two 9-inch screens on the dashboard and console as standard. The upper display can be upgraded to 10 inches and allows drivers to easily control sat nav and smartphone mirroring, while springing for the Technology Pack bumps this up to a 12-inch display with high-res graphics, wireless charging and enhanced interactivity. Electric lumbar adjustment is available as standard across the range to ensure comfort on long journeys, and all A6s get parking sensors and LED headlights as standard for peace of mind. The driver-focused interior radiates sophistication thanks to glossy plastics, sharp stitching and brushed metal trims on the dashboard and doors, helping the A6 recreate the luxury of the A8 without the higher price tag.
