2013 Audi A6

   
A6 is the smaller of Audi's two midsize cars (the other is the hatchback A7). It's made in Germany and competes against the BMW 5-Series, Infiniti M, Lexus GS, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.


Audi redesigned A6 for the 2012 model year. For 2013, the lineup will expand to include a 4-cylinder model with all-wheel drive (previous 4-cylinder A6s were front-drive only). The high-performance S6 also returns, and we cover that in a separate report.

All A6 models, dubbed 2.0T and 3.0T, come in a single Premium trim level with standard leather upholstery, 8-way power front seats, driver-seat memory, wood interior trim, power sunroof, and a cooled glovebox. All-wheel drive A6s include heated front seats, a feature which is optional on front-drive versions. Many options are available in packages. Premium Plus includes front- and rear-obstacle detection, LED daytime running lights, navigation system, rearview camera, Audi Connect assistance, keyless entry/engine start, music hard drive, HD Radio receiver, and xenon headlights. The Sport Package includes a sport suspension, steering-wheel shift paddles, and either 19- (2.0T) or 20-inch (3.0T) wheels on performance tires. The Cold Weather Package includes heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, and for the front-drive 2.0T, heated front seats. Several packages are exclusive to the 3.0T. Prestige includes rear dual-zone automatic climate control, a power tilt and telescopic steering wheel, ventilated front seats, Bose-brand audio system, steering-linked adaptive xenon headlights, and unique trim. The Driver's Assistance Package includes blind-spot alert, adaptive cruise control, and a collision alert system. The Innovation Package includes the aforementioned assistance items plus front and rearview cameras, a head-up instrument display, adaptive cruise control, and night vision. Models with the Prestige Package can order a high-end Bang & Olufsen audio system.

The 2013 Audi A6 2.0T is available with front-wheel drive or Audi's quattro all-wheel drive. It's powered by a 211-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Front-drive models have a continuously variable transmission (CVT) that behaves like an automatic. AWD models get a conventional 8-speed automatic transmission. The 3.0T has a 310-horsepower 3.0-liter supercharged V6 that pairs with an 8-speed automatic transmission. It's AWD only.

EPA estimated fuel economy for the front-drive 2.0T is 25 mpg city/33 mpg highway. Adding AWD reduces the 2.0T's rating to 20 city/30 highway. V6 models score 18 city/27 highway. All A6s require premium-grade gasoline. In Consumer Guide testing, A6 3.0T models averaged 22.1-23.2 mpg with slightly more highway driving than city use.

The 2013 Audi A6 includes a standard complement of expected and federally mandated safety features. Blind-spot alert is offered as part of an option package or as an a la carte extra. Other available safety features include rear-side airbags, a rear pre-collision system, night vision camera, and front and rearview cameras.
