In terms of design highlights, the new A6 gets a large grille with chrome horizontal slats. Moreover, the sleek and angular LED headlamps and sharp creases on the bonnet render it an aggressive stance. The new A6 gets dual-tone alloy wheels for freshness while the window line looks similar to the existing car. The rear section looks fresh with new LED tail lamps that are connected by a chrome strip.
Under the hood, the new Audi A6 will get a BS-VI compliant 2.0-litre TFSI petrol engine that generates 240bhp of power and 370Nm of peak torque. The engine will come mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. At a later stage, Audi might introduce a BS-VI compliant 2.0-litre diesel engine.
As for the interior, it gets a premium leather upholstery with twin touch screen for the infotainment and the climate control duties. Moreover, the dashboard is draped in black leather with piano black trims along with aluminium and wood inserts. Safety features include eight airbags, front and rear parking, a 360-degree camera, ABS with EBD, electronic stability program, electric parking with auto hold, traction control and more.
