Safety

Cars of the German brand Audi have gained universal popularity in the world and in Russia for a reason. In the case of the cars of this company, we are talking not just about high-tech, high-quality and well-thought-out models with a high cost, but also about cars that can guarantee the safety of the driver and passengers in the event of a serious traffic accident. The sedan, as well as the Audi A6 2022 station wagon, is no exception. These models received all the necessary accompanying equipment, a variety of systems responsible for motion control, as well as a well-thought-out sturdy body. The luxury car achieved an impressive five-star rating in EuroNCAP testing.

Handling and off-road performance

Another key aspect that motorists love the Audi A6 for is its good cross-country ability. Despite the fact that we are talking about an urban model with a clearance of 165 mm and a long wheelbase, the car confidently copes with serious obstacles in its path. This applies to both rough terrain and dirt roads, as well as snow-covered stretches. It's stupid to meddle in off-road driving of such a car, however, here the model will be able to pleasantly surprise. In the city, the sedan, like, in principle, the station wagon, feels great, confidently holds the road, obediently reacts to the steering and allows the driver and passengers to enjoy the comfort regardless of the quality of the highway coverage.

Advantages and disadvantages

It will be easier to decide on the purchase of this expensive model if you highlight the main advantages of the car, which include the following:

• excellent dynamics;
• minimum fuel consumption;
• compliance with the Euro-6 standard, regardless of the type of engine;
• spectacular appearance;
• rich equipment;
• thoughtful salon;
• high-quality assembly;
• reliability and unpretentiousness during operation.

Also, a number of disadvantages cannot be ignored, including the high cost, expensive maintenance and not the most advanced equipment in the database.

Design

Audi cars are always delightful due to their appearance. The manufacturer has been using a recognizable traditional style for many decades, which is effectively complemented by new-fashioned design solutions. From year to year, the model's appearance becomes more spectacular and aggressive with a slight addition of sporty lines. Driving such a car can be guaranteed to attract attention and catch envious glances from other road users. The interior of this sedan shines with its luxury, quality of finish and a variety of high-tech elements, but despite this, there was also a place for the proprietary practicality of the Audi company.

Sales start

Now on the Russian market, the fifth generation Audi A6 model is sold in the C8 body. The official premiere of this car took place in March 2018. The station wagon was shown to the public a month later. Free sales of the "German" in Russia started in November 2018. For the first time, the A6 model appeared on the domestic market in February 1997. Throughout the entire time, starting with the first generation, cars are sold in sedan and station wagon bodies.

Competitors

The Audi A6 has many rivals, but among the total mass it is worth highlighting only the following really interesting models:

• Mercedes-Benz E-Class;
• BMW 5-Series;
