Audi A6 in the previous generation was an average vehicle and the drive wasn’t extraordinary either as compared to thelike s of BMW 5-Series and Mercedes E-Class, but all new A6 model has achieved the Best Executive Car Award by the Auto Express in 2011. It has made its entrance into the market with all new and efficient ever Audi engines both on petrol and diesel sources but the noticeable thing is the ultra-efficient diesels with an array of capacities. The A6 has handsome looks along with the class leading executive interiors and is the only car with four wheel drive system in its class. It is very light weight and swift on the road thanks to the extensive use of aluminium.

It has exactly the same CO2 emissions and fuel consumptions as of its competitors but it has slower acceleration than the BMW 520d. It makes a sporty noise when breaks the barrier of 5000 rpm and accelerates very well on the straight roads.
