2014 Audi A6

2014 A6 Photos
A redesigned Audi A6 sedan debuted for 2012, followed by a high-performance S6 for the 2013 model year. Also new for 2013, the Audi A6 2.0T became available with all-wheel drive as well as front-drive, while the A6 3.0T gained a top-view camera system and a fuel-saving start/stop system.

A new A6 TDI clean-diesel model joined the lineup for 2014, with an appealing EPA fuel-mileage estimate of 24/38 mpg City/Highway. Audi claims that beats the miles-per-gallon figure of any TDI competitor. In the A6 TDI, the V6 engine develops 240 horsepower and a burly 428 pound-feet of torque, working with an 8-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission and Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive. Audi says the 2014 A6 TDI can accelerate 0-60 mph in a swift 5.5 seconds.

Heated seats are newly standard in the entry-level 2014 A6 2.0 model. Audi A6 2.0T Premium models offer a new optional package with Xenon plus headlights and 18-inch wheels. The 2.0T, TDI and 3.0T models can have a new 19-inch wheel package with all-season tires and 15-spoke star-design wheels, as well as a 19-inch Sport package with 5-double-spoke wheels.

A new Black Optic package for the 2014 A6 and S6 features a black optic grille with high-gloss Singleframe ? surround and gloss-black window surround, as well as 20-inch titanium finish 5-arm rotor-design wheels.

For 2014, A6 Prestige models include Audi side assist, which monitors the blind spot areas, as well as fast-approaching vehicles, at a range of approximately 150 feet to the rear. In an impending rear-end collision, Audi pre-sense rear closes the windows and sunroof and tightens seatbelts. The A6 Prestige model also gains power folding mirrors, while the 2014 S6 has these three features as standard.

Also new for 2014, the Driver Assistance plus package (which includes Audi adaptive cruise control with stop and go; Audi pre-sense plus; and power-folding, power-adjustable, auto-dimming, heated side mirrors with memory) now includes a Topview camera.

The base A6 2.0T uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4 engine that now makes 220 horsepower (up from 211 in 2013) and 258 pound-feet of torque. It's paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and comes standard with front-wheel drive. Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system with an 8-speed automatic transmission is optional on the 2014 A6 2.0T. Fuel economy for the 2014 Audi A6 2.0T is very good, with an EPA-estimated 25/33 mpg City/Highway with the CVT and 20/29 mpg with the 8-speed automatic and Quattro. Premium-grade fuel is recommended.

The 2014 Audi A6 3.0T is silky smooth, and potent, with a supercharged, direct-injected 3.0-liter V6 that produces 310 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. Quattro and the 8-speed automatic transmission are standard, as is Audi's stop/start technology, which turns the engine off at stoplights and during other lengthy idles to save fuel. Fuel economy is an EPA-estimated 18/27 mpg City/Highway. Premium gasoline is recommended, and Audi claims the A6 3.0T accelerates to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds.
