Quick Look

The 2015 Audi A6 makes a solid case for being one of the best vehicles in its class, effortlessly taking on the giants like the BMW 5-Series, Cadillac CTS and even Mercedes-Benz E-Class. What’s particularly impressive is the A6 3.0T’s 3.0-litre V6 that can pump out 310 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque, taking less than six seconds to accelerate to 100 km/h.




Full Review

The 2015 Audi A6 may be able to take on the BMW 5-Series, Cadillac CTS and even Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but it’s nowhere near as good as its own kind – like the super-stylish A7. However, in typical Audi fashion, the A6 is superbly crafted in just about every respect, delivering solid looks, powerful engine and plenty of high-tech features. If you have extra $55,000 or so to spend on a new sedan, this could be a good way to do so.

In terms of exterior design, the A6 is a good-looking sedan, offering handsome sheetmetal and sharp, clean lines. However, something about this vehicle makes it look a little too pedestrian for its own good. Since this is one of the pricier Audis on the market, it’s tough to choose it over some of the cheaper alternatives, such as the very pretty Audi A4. On the other hand, if you have enough money to spend, then you might as well pick the more expensive models like the A7 or A8, either of which is prettier. 

On the inside, however, the 2015A6 is a whole different story, featuring one of the best cabins in its segment. What you get here is an appealing dash layout, superb materials quality along with decent fit and finish. Audi’s MMI infotainment system is present here as well, providing users with access to a wide selection of functions via its dash-mounted pop-up screen as well as a knob and buttons on the centre console. The system features user-friendly menus and sharp graphics, and if you get the "MMI navigation plus" upgrade, which is standard on all the trims but the base one, you will also have a touchpad that recognizes fingertip movements. It can also provide you with a 3G WiFi hotspot for up to eight devices, featuring Google Earth data in the navigation system and more simplified Google search for POIs.

As far as comfort is concerned, the A6 features supportive, well-bolstered front seats that will keep you cozy even on long trips, but you might miss “special” seats, like BMW’s multicontour chairs. The backseat area is comfortable too, offering plenty of legroom and space in general – more so than its rivals. The trunk area, however, is only 14.1 cubic feet, which is actually below-average, but you can fold the back seats to expand it when necessary.

Under the hood, the new Audi A6 offers quite a roster of engines. There’s a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that can provide 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. With this powertrain you get standard front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission, though an all-wheel-drive version with an eight-speed automatic is also available.  The Audi A6 3.0T version a supercharged 3.0-litre V6 that can generate 310 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. Unlike the other engine, it can only be combined with an eight-speed automatic transmission, while all-wheel drive is standard. Finally, the A6 TDI gets you a 3.0-litre turbodiesel V6, which pumps out 240 horsepower and 428 pound-feet of torque, while also being connected to an eight-speed automatic.

Overall, the 2015 Audi A6 is a great car, but its appearance is a bit lacking. That being said, if you’re not quite as nitpicky as us when it comes to looks, then you will enjoy driving this sedan.

Power and Performance:

The 2015 Audi A6 2.0T is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine good for 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) are standard, but you're more likely to encounter the all-wheel-drive version, which comes with an eight-speed conventional automatic. Audi estimates a 0-60-mph time of 7.4 seconds with the CVT and 6.6 seconds with the eight-speed. Fuel economy is EPA rated at a laudable 28 mpg combined (25 city/33 highway) with the CVT, dropping to a rather pedestrian 23 mpg combined (20/29) with the eight-speed.

The Audi A6 3.0T gets a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 that produces 310 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. The eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive are standard, as is automatic engine stop-start technology. In Edmunds performance testing, the 3.0T sedan went from zero to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds, a quick time among midsize luxury sedans equipped with similarly powerful six-cylinder engines. Fuel economy stands at an estimated 22 mpg combined (18/27), just a tick behind the much less powerful 2.0T.

With the A6 TDI, you get the best of both worlds. The all-wheel-drive TDI's 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 cranks out 240 hp and 428 lb-ft of torque, teaming up with the eight-speed auto. The combo was good enough to hit 60 mph in just 5.6 seconds in our testing. Yet fuel economy is a stellar 29 mpg combined (24/38), ranking right up there with frugal compact sedans. In an Edmunds test over 400 miles with varying driving conditions, we averaged 27.8 mpg.

Interiors and Special Features:

The A6 interior has dozens of pieces, panel joints, air vents, and metallic trim, which can add up to a busy look in some combinations, although a clear control layout helps with that. The A6's instrument panel is slim and rather low, which means the optional navigation system's LCD screen must flip incongruously out of the dash. And Audi's signature red lighting doesn't always work with some of the more exotic interior treatments, like its layered-oak look.

The A6 simply executes its global mission, to be the executive four-door that sells en masse, around the world. Still, it stings that its signature nose-to-ground grille is becoming a meme around the industry, for better or worse. Not only that, the A6's signature sill line--the "tornado" line--has now been copied by automakers on cars as prosaic as a Hyundai Elantra.

Safety features:

Standard safety equipment on the 2015 Audi A6 includes antilock disc brakes, stability control, front-seat side airbags, front knee airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. Rear side airbags, a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, lane-keeping assist and a blind-spot warning system are optional.

The standard Audi Pre-Sense system can warn the driver, tension the seatbelts and close the windows if a potential collision is detected, while Pre-Sense Rear flashes the brake lights as a warning to rearward traffic if you're in danger of being rear-ended. The optional Pre-Sense Plus system (available via the Driver Assistance package) can do all that, plus fully tighten the seatbelts and automatically apply the brakes full force to mitigate crash damage from an impending frontal collision.
