New Audi A6 allroad: A More Muscular Design and Stronger Character

With the new Audi A6 allroad, Audi is redefining the concept of the premium all-round estate car. Now in its fifth generation, the A6 allroad combines a more distinctive design, advanced technology and impressive off-road capabilities with the comfort and refinement that have always been part of the model’s DNA. Around 11 centimetres wider than the A6 Avant, equipped as standard with quattro all-wheel drive and a specially developed adaptive air suspension, the new Audi A6 allroad is designed to handle everything from long motorway journeys to more demanding routes away from paved roads. The new Audi A6 allroad immediately stands out from a conventional premium estate. For the first time in the model’s history, the body reaches a particularly generous width of 1,986 millimetres without the exterior mirrors and 2,099 millimetres including the mirrors. With a total length of 5,016 millimetres, these proportions give the vehicle an imposing road presence. The exterior design has been developed specifically to emphasise the allroad character. Body protection elements, distinctive hexagonal details, underbody protection and pronounced wheel-arch cladding give the new model a robust and unmistakable appearance. The new Audi A6 allroad comes standard with 19-inch wheels, while optional wheels measuring up to 21 inches are available. Ground clearance has also been increased by 34 millimetres compared with an A6 Avant equipped with air suspension. The result is a premium estate that combines elegant proportions with greater freedom of use on different types of terrain.

Audi A6 allroad with Adaptive Air Suspension and quattro

One of the key technical features of the Audi A6 allroad is hidden beneath its bodywork. The model comes standard with an adaptive air suspension specifically developed for the allroad version. The suspension offers a total adjustment range of 55 millimetres, allowing the vehicle’s ride height to be adapted to different driving conditions and surfaces. For driving away from paved roads, the offroad and offroad+ modes can be selected. These settings can raise the body by a further 15 millimetres while adapting the vehicle’s traction management to surfaces such as gravel, sand and snow. For particularly challenging sections, the lift function provides an additional 20 millimetres of ground clearance at speeds of up to 35 km/h. The new A6 allroad is also equipped with all-wheel steering. At low speeds, the rear wheels can turn by up to five degrees in the opposite direction to the front wheels, making manoeuvring easier and reducing the turning circle. At higher speeds, the rear wheels can turn by up to two degrees in the same direction as the front wheels, enhancing stability and driving precision. The quattro all-wheel-drive system is standard across the entire A6 allroad engine range.

The engine produces 220 kW, equivalent to 299 PS, and delivers maximum torque of 580 Nm. The V6 TDI is combined with MHEV plus technology and features an electrically driven compressor designed to improve engine response.
