Engines.
Audi A6 begins with a selection of powerful and sophisticated and highly efficient four and six cylinder engines: two petrol and three TDI. They have powers of 130 kW (177 hp) to 220 kW (300 hp). They get their fuel by direct injection, the 3.0 TFSI uses a compressor to increase the range and the 2.0 TFSI and TDI work with turbochargers.
Each of these engines take advantage of the technologies in a modular platform Audi efficiency. Much has been invested to optimize the engines, particularly internal friction, in line with the innovative heating system brand management. Each unit operates in the energy recovery system, in combination with the start-stop system, regardless of transmission used.
The new Audi A6 sets the standard of efficiency in executive class. Throughout the entire model line, the consumption of fuel in the A6 was reduced to 19 percent over previous models - although performance has increased. The 2.0 TDI requires an average of just 4.9 liters of fuel per 100 km (48.00 U.S. mpg) and emits only 129 g CO2 per km (207.61 g / mile).
The naturally aspirated 2.8 FSI is equipped with AVS, in this case, acts on the intake valves. The accelerator can usually remain open, allowing the V6 to breathe freely. It has a power of 150 kW (204 hp) and reaches 280 Nm (206.52 lbs ft) of torque in the range of 5250-6500 rpm. Key figures (with multitronic): 0-100 km / h (0 to 62.14 mph) in 7.7 seconds, top speed 240 kmh consumption (149.13 mph) in the EU cycle of 7.4 liters per 100 km (31.79 U.S. mpg), 172 grams of CO2 per km (276.81 g / mile). This represents an improvement of 12 percent, despite the fact that the predecessor to deliver 10 kW (14 HP) less.
The most powerful petrol engine in the family A6 3.0 TFSI, and the mechanical loader is located in the V formed by 90-degree cylinder banks. The V6 offers 220 kW (300 hp) of power and 440 Nm (324.53 pounds ft) of torque, the latter at 2900-4500 rpm. A6 3.0 TFSI sprints from a standing to speed on the road back in 5.5 seconds and reaches a top speed electronically limited to 250 km / h (155.34 mph). It uses an average of 8.2 liters per 100 km (26.68 U.S. MPG) and emits 190 g CO2 per km (305.78 g / mile) - an advance of 13 percent over the previous model, which produces 213 kW (290 hp).
The most efficient engine in the new A6 2.0 TDI is being redeveloped. This four-cylinder unit develops 130 kW (177 hp). Its 380 Nm (280.27 pounds ft) of torque will be ready between 1750 and 2500 rpm. In conjunction with a manual gearbox, the Audi A6 from zero to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 8.7 seconds and a top speed of 228 km / h (141.67 mph). In the cycle of the EU, it requires only 4.9 liters per 100 km (48.00 U.S. MPG) and emit just 129 g CO2 per km (207.61 g / mile). This is a reduction of 13 percent of fuel consumption.
The new 3.0 TDI is represented by two versions of the A6 family. The two are distinguished by their low weight, low internal friction, ultra-high precision control of auxiliary units and highly sophisticated management system that provides thermal cooling for the crankcase and heads apart.
In the first version that generates 150 kilowatts V6 diesel (204 hp) and applies 400 Nm (295.02 pounds ft) of torque at low rpm 1250-3500. Mated to a multitronic, the A6 accelerates to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 7.2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 240 km / h (149.13 mph). Its average consumption is only 5.2 liters per 100 km, CO2 emissions of 137 grams per km (220.48 g / mile). Compared to the 140 kW (190 hp) predecessor, which represents an increase of 19 percent.
Top-of-the-line version of the 3.0 TDI delivers 180 kW (245 hp), which offers 500 Nm (368.78 pounds-ft) of torque between 1400 and 3250 rpm. Standard Sprint takes only 6.1 seconds and top speed is limited to 250 km / h (155.34 mph). On average, this is the best performance of the power plant diesel engine uses only 6.0 liters of fuel per 100 km (39.20 U.S. mpg) and emits 158 g CO2 per kilometer (254.28 g / mile). As such, it exceeds the previous engine, which reached 176 kW (240 hp), 16 percent.
Training.
Like its predecessor, the new A6 is also available in a wide range of transmissions. Depending on the version of the engine, these are front wheel drive and four wheel drive, six-speed manual gearbox, multitronic continuously variable, and seven-speed S tronic - at lightning speed dual-clutch is a new addition to a great series. Audi offers an optional paddle.
The transmissions are an important factor in the effectiveness of the new A6. They stand out because of their low internal friction, high performance, with their speed range ratio of dispersion is oriented to high speeds. Automatic transmissions have access to data of predictive route navigation systems and is integrated into the engine management system. The difference is in front of the clutch and just behind the engine. Therefore, the front axle on the A6 placed further forward, giving a long wheelbase and a balanced distribution axle load.
The four-cylinder TDI transmits its power to the front wheels. It comes standard with a manual transmission or, alternatively, the multitronic. These broadcasts are available for front-drive version of the ISP 2 0.8. The manual transmission will be available shortly after 150 kW (204 hp) 3.0 TDI. The FSI engine can also be combined with quattro permanent four-wheel drive and S tronic. The 3.0 TFSI and the 180 kW (245 hp) 3.0 TDI comes with a four-wheel drive, always in combination with the S tronic.
All versions of the new A6 Quattro last phase of the development of the permanent four-wheel drive with center differential ring gear. This system distributes power in a particularly flexible, dynamic way, while a compact and lightweight design. The basic conditions on the distribution of power between the front and rear axles is 40:60 - a sports feature on the rear-biased.
The new quattro driveline equipped with integrated torque-vectoring feature that recognizes when the wheels are inside of losing their grip in fast corners. Before that can happen, it slows the wheel very slightly - almost imperceptibly - to make more fluid handling and traction even stronger. Completing the top-of the range Audi Sport offers an optional differential that distributes power between the active rear wheels.
Chassis.
The chassis of the Audi A6 combines sporty precision with maximum comfort. Wheel of arms control and many other components are made of lightweight aluminum. Each front wheel is guided by five gun control, with the operation of self-trapezoidal-link suspension at the rear.
The alloy wheels are standard 16 or 17 inches in diameter, depending on the version of the engine. Audi four-wheel GmbH provide up to 20-inch wheels optional. Sizes ranging from 225/60 tires and 265/35. The tire pressure monitoring is standard connections, and some tires can be equipped with emergency features.
The four disc brakes - ventilated front - are generous in size and powerful. The brake light works on a principle of adaptation when the brakes are fully implemented, is to warn the traffic behind rapid pulse.
Is a revised power steering electro-mechanical drive, which works very effectively. Broad support it provides is based on speed. When the ratio of 16.1:1, the steering is direct and sporty, providing a precise feedback from the road. It works closely with the optional Audi lane-autopilot on, and also proved useful in braking when the car is just an outlet to the other side of the control pulses in this case, that will help the driver to steer in right direction.
Audi has equipped the new A6 with steel springs that provide a high level of comfort. Sports suspension and the S line sports suspension from quattro GmbH are the alternative options. Air suspension with four electronically controlled dampers are also available. The adaptive air suspension has been redesigned, with spring struts at the front air springs and shock absorbers separated and back. The system sets up the body of one of three levels. On the highway, lower your body, increase stability and reduce fuel consumption.
All front-wheel drive models of the A6 has an electronic stabilization program ESP with electronic limited slip differential on board. This software solution works like the function of torque vectoring in the process of Quattro, but it focuses only on the brake light inside front wheel. This ensures that braking sedan longer remain neutral in the fast corners and virtually eliminate understeer, improve adherence, and makes handling more dynamic.
Among the high-end solutions for the new Audi A6 is a dynamic processing system box. In its standard version, which controls the engine, power steering and automatic climate control. The driver can operate these components vary among the three types of "Comfort", "car", "dynamic", "individual" and "efficiency". For all models TFSI and TDI, "efficiency" of the work platform supports the style guide, which provides an optimum fuel consumption by changing the properties of various ship systems.
A6 customers can extend the system to include automatic transmission, adaptive air suspension, the ACC with Stop & Go, adaptive lights and ambient lighting options. Soon to come are the sport differential and dynamic steering, which varies with the ratio of the speed at which the car moves.

Engines.
Audi A6 begins with a selection of powerful and sophisticated and highly efficient four and six cylinder engines: two petrol and three TDI. They have powers of 130 kW (177 hp) to 220 kW (300 hp). They get their fuel by direct injection, the 3.0 TFSI uses a compressor to increase the range and the 2.0 TFSI and TDI work with turbochargers.
Each of these engines take advantage of the technologies in a modular platform Audi efficiency. Much has been invested to optimize the engines, particularly internal friction, in line with the innovative heating system brand management. Each unit operates in the energy recovery system, in combination with the start-stop system, regardless of transmission used.
The new Audi A6 sets the standard of efficiency in executive class. Throughout the entire model line, the consumption of fuel in the A6 was reduced to 19 percent over previous models - although performance has increased. The 2.0 TDI requires an average of just 4.9 liters of fuel per 100 km (48.00 U.S. mpg) and emits only 129 g CO2 per km (207.61 g / mile).
The naturally aspirated 2.8 FSI is equipped with AVS, in this case, acts on the intake valves. The accelerator can usually remain open, allowing the V6 to breathe freely. It has a power of 150 kW (204 hp) and reaches 280 Nm (206.52 lbs ft) of torque in the range of 5250-6500 rpm. Key figures (with multitronic): 0-100 km / h (0 to 62.14 mph) in 7.7 seconds, top speed 240 kmh consumption (149.13 mph) in the EU cycle of 7.4 liters per 100 km (31.79 U.S. mpg), 172 grams of CO2 per km (276.81 g / mile). This represents an improvement of 12 percent, despite the fact that the predecessor to deliver 10 kW (14 HP) less.
The most powerful petrol engine in the family A6 3.0 TFSI, and the mechanical loader is located in the V formed by 90-degree cylinder banks. The V6 offers 220 kW (300 hp) of power and 440 Nm (324.53 pounds ft) of torque, the latter at 2900-4500 rpm. A6 3.0 TFSI sprints from a standing to speed on the road back in 5.5 seconds and reaches a top speed electronically limited to 250 km / h (155.34 mph). It uses an average of 8.2 liters per 100 km (26.68 U.S. MPG) and emits 190 g CO2 per km (305.78 g / mile) - an advance of 13 percent over the previous model, which produces 213 kW (290 hp).
The most efficient engine in the new A6 2.0 TDI is being redeveloped. This four-cylinder unit develops 130 kW (177 hp). Its 380 Nm (280.27 pounds ft) of torque will be ready between 1750 and 2500 rpm. In conjunction with a manual gearbox, the Audi A6 from zero to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 8.7 seconds and a top speed of 228 km / h (141.67 mph). In the cycle of the EU, it requires only 4.9 liters per 100 km (48.00 U.S. MPG) and emit just 129 g CO2 per km (207.61 g / mile). This is a reduction of 13 percent of fuel consumption.
The new 3.0 TDI is represented by two versions of the A6 family. The two are distinguished by their low weight, low internal friction, ultra-high precision control of auxiliary units and highly sophisticated management system that provides thermal cooling for the crankcase and heads apart.
In the first version that generates 150 kilowatts V6 diesel (204 hp) and applies 400 Nm (295.02 pounds ft) of torque at low rpm 1250-3500. Mated to a multitronic, the A6 accelerates to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 7.2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 240 km / h (149.13 mph). Its average consumption is only 5.2 liters per 100 km, CO2 emissions of 137 grams per km (220.48 g / mile). Compared to the 140 kW (190 hp) predecessor, which represents an increase of 19 percent.
Top-of-the-line version of the 3.0 TDI delivers 180 kW (245 hp), which offers 500 Nm (368.78 pounds-ft) of torque between 1400 and 3250 rpm. Standard Sprint takes only 6.1 seconds and top speed is limited to 250 km / h (155.34 mph). On average, this is the best performance of the power plant diesel engine uses only 6.0 liters of fuel per 100 km (39.20 U.S. mpg) and emits 158 g CO2 per kilometer (254.28 g / mile). As such, it exceeds the previous engine, which reached 176 kW (240 hp), 16 percent.
Training.
Like its predecessor, the new A6 is also available in a wide range of transmissions. Depending on the version of the engine, these are front wheel drive and four wheel drive, six-speed manual gearbox, multitronic continuously variable, and seven-speed S tronic - at lightning speed dual-clutch is a new addition to a great series. Audi offers an optional paddle.
The transmissions are an important factor in the effectiveness of the new A6. They stand out because of their low internal friction, high performance, with their speed range ratio of dispersion is oriented to high speeds. Automatic transmissions have access to data of predictive route navigation systems and is integrated into the engine management system. The difference is in front of the clutch and just behind the engine. Therefore, the front axle on the A6 placed further forward, giving a long wheelbase and a balanced distribution axle load.
The four-cylinder TDI transmits its power to the front wheels. It comes standard with a manual transmission or, alternatively, the multitronic. These broadcasts are available for front-drive version of the ISP 2 0.8. The manual transmission will be available shortly after 150 kW (204 hp) 3.0 TDI. The FSI engine can also be combined with quattro permanent four-wheel drive and S tronic. The 3.0 TFSI and the 180 kW (245 hp) 3.0 TDI comes with a four-wheel drive, always in combination with the S tronic.
All versions of the new A6 Quattro last phase of the development of the permanent four-wheel drive with center differential ring gear.
