Admission: We can get somewhat diverted in some cases. Simply in light of the fact that a greater motor or stiffer suspension is accessible doesn't mean everyone ought to select it. We at times disregard the way that not everybody needs more drive or higher spring rates for his or her day by day ride. Many individuals simply need skilled, solid, and fulfilling to-drive individual transportation. No one needs an extravagance auto, yet in the event that you need an Audi and don't know anything past that, you require a diesel.
One Quick Diesel
Audi's 240-hp diesel A6 is down 70 stallions to the A6's supercharged gas six, yet it betters the gas six in the torque war with an additional 103 lb-ft of snort, for an aggregate of 428. Furthermore even in Quattro pretense and with taller last drive outfitting, the diesel clobbers the gas auto to 60 mph, hitting the imprint in 5.1 seconds, a half-back faster than the last A6 3.0t we tried. In any event some of that credit goes to the TDI's Pirelli P Zeros, a piece of the $1300 Black Optic bundle (that is itself an extra to the $1500 Sport bundle). Through the quarter-mile, the diesel holds the playing point with a 13.9-second passed time contrasted and the gas auto's 14 level. At the same time the 3.0t's 101-mph trap rate is 3 mph higher than the Tdi's, demonstrating how the gas auto's more extensive force band permits it to reel in the diesel once they're under way.
The TDI Quattro's EPA appraisals of 24 mpg city and 38 interstate better the gas model's by 6 and 11, and the diesel found the middle value of 29 mpg in our look after a 4220-pound AWD extravagance auto. Its smooth, prompt torque conveyance and the eight-speed programmed's smart movements make the diesel a simple approach to crawl through activity.
On the other hand perhaps you'd rather astound yourself and utilize this diesel vehicle for a fulfilling country terrace blaze. Its slack free power conveyance pleasantly supplements the A6's imperturbable feel and feeling of unmatched strength, delivering an auto that does what its asked, when its asked. The Pirellis helped our Quattro test auto assemble 0.94 g of stick on the skidpad—once more, extremely respectable for a 4220-pound extravagance car. Furthermore at 70 mph, you're only 159 feet from a stop.
"Unmanageable" Is Relative
The TDI Quattro begins at $58,395, $2400 more than an indistinguishably prepared gas model. Our sample was furnished for long-separation space-outs with the $2800 Driver Assistance bundle that incorporates versatile journey control, dynamic path keeping, and programmed crisis braking. An alternate $2800 went to the Prestige bundle, which includes snappier S line outside trim, four-zone atmosphere control, a Bose sound framework, and ventilated front seats, in addition to different miscellaneous items. Throw in $500 for Glacier White paint, and the sticker came to $67,295.
It's difficult to contemplate a $67,000 A6 as the slightest measure of anything, nor would we propose it on the grounds of being the minimum measure of A6 somebody could manage. We'd propose it on the grounds of being an incredible auto, and its awesome that this significance is accessible in the humble TDI—unless you're a full-on pace monstrosity, in which case Audi has your cravings secured with different decisions in its lin
