The eighth-{generation|era|technology} (C8) Audi A6 celebrates its world premiere {today|as we speak|at present|at the moment|at this time|immediately|in the present day|right now|right this moment} with an all-new design and host {of new|of latest|of recent} {technologies|applied sciences}, the latter {including|together with} {those|these} {found in|present in} {larger|bigger} stablemates {like the|just like the} A8 and A7 Sportback. {The new|The brand new} A6 {is due to|is because of} roll off the {assembly|meeting} line at Audi抯 Neckarsulm plant, and {will be|can be|might be|shall be|will likely be|will probably be} launched in Germany in June this {year|12 months|yr}. The redesign brings the A6 {in line with|according to|consistent with|in keeping with|in step with} Audi抯 new design language, and {the company|the corporate} says {a combination|a mix|a mixture} of 搕aut surfaces, sharp edges and {striking|hanging|placing|putting} lines?conveys the car抯 character for sporty elegance. At first {glance|look}, you {might|may|would possibly} {think|assume|suppose} you抮e {looking at|taking a look at} an A8 {but|however} there are {a few|a couple of|a number of|just a few} cues {to help|to assist} distinguish {the two|the 2}. {For instance|As an example|As an illustration|For example}, {while|whereas} {there is|there may be|there's} {a wide|a large}, low-slung Singleframe grille up {front|entrance}, the headlights flanking them are {shaped|formed} {more|extra} {similarly|equally} to {those|these} on the B9 A4. Audi {offers|affords|gives|presents|provides} up {to three|to 3|to a few} lighting {systems|methods|programs|techniques}, with the Matrix LED system being {the top|the highest}-of-the-line {version|model}.
Other differentiating {features|options} {include|embody|embrace} the aggressive {front|entrance} bumper with {large|giant|massive} {side|aspect|facet} inlets {that is|that's} {part of|a part of} the {optional|elective|non-compulsory|non-obligatory|optionally available} S line exterior {package|bundle|package deal}. {At the|On the} {back|again}, the taillights are linked by a central chrome strip, {similar to|just like|much like} the A8, {but|however} {there is no|there is no such thing as a|there isn't a|there isn't any} {long|lengthy} LED {light|gentle|mild} bar above them. Instead, {they appear|they seem} to pay homage to the {previous|earlier}-{generation|era|technology} C7, with {updated|up to date} graphics {within|inside} them. {All the|All of the} above-{mentioned|talked about} {elements|components|parts} are {enough|sufficient} to visually separate the A6 from the A8 (even with the sport exterior {package|bundle|package deal}). If you抮e {still|nonetheless} not {convinced|satisfied}, {shots|photographs|pictures} of the car抯 profile will {help|assist} clear {things|issues} up, {where|the place} the {difference|distinction} in {length|size} - the A6 is 4,939 mm {long|lengthy} and the A8 is 5,172 mm {long|lengthy} - {becomes|turns into} very {apparent|obvious}. {Compared to|In comparison with} its predecessor, {the new|the brand new} A6 is {just|simply} 7 mm longer. However, {the new|the brand new} {car|automobile|automotive} is 12 mm wider at 1,886 mm, {and 2|and a couple of|and a pair of} mm taller at 1,457 mm.
The wheelbase has {also|additionally} grown to 2,924 mm, which is 12 mm {more than|greater than} on the C7. Audi says the revised dimensions {help|assist} create {a larger|a bigger} {interior|inside} in {the new|the brand new} A6, {offering|providing} {more|extra} rear legroom than {before|earlier than} - headroom and shoulder room {in the|within the} {front|entrance} and rear are {also|additionally} improved. Luggage {space|area|house} {remains|stays} unchanged from 530 litres, {but|however} there抯 {more|extra} loading width, with the carmaker {using|utilizing} two golf {bags|baggage|luggage} being {placed|positioned} horizontally {as the|because the} testing metric. As for {the rest of|the remainder of} the {interior|inside}, it {is largely|is basically|is essentially} carried over from the A7 Sportback, so there抯 {quite|fairly} {a number of|a lot of|a variety of|numerous|plenty of|quite a few|quite a lot of|various} {displays|shows}, {well|effectively|nicely|properly}, on {display|show}. For the driver, Audi抯 12.3-inch {virtual|digital} cockpit {should be|must be|needs to be|ought to be} {a pretty|a fairly|a reasonably} {familiar|acquainted} {bit of|little bit of} {kit|equipment|package} by now, and drivers can {still|nonetheless} change {the type|the kind|the sort} {of information|of data|of knowledge} {they want|they need} {shown|proven} to them. A head-up {display|show} projecting {information|data|info} onto the windshield {is also|can also be|can be} {available|accessible|obtainable|out there}. {The two|The 2} {displays|shows} {located|positioned|situated} between the {front|entrance} passengers {provide|present} {access|entry} to the car抯 {systems|methods|programs|techniques} {via|by way of|through} {touch|contact}, with the {upper|higher} one being a 10.1-inch unit and {the other|the opposite} an 8.6-inch unit.
The {larger|bigger} of {the two|the 2} handles infotainment duties for the MMI navigation plus (MMI navigation is {standard|commonplace|customary|normal}) system, {while|whereas} the smaller one {deals|offers} with {climate|local weather} {control|management}, {convenience|comfort} {functions|capabilities|features} and {text|textual content} {input|enter}. The {equipment|gear|tools} {list|checklist|listing|record} {also|additionally} {includes|consists of|contains} {a range|a spread|a variety} of driver {assistance|help} {systems|methods|programs|techniques} (parked {under|below|beneath|underneath} the Audi AI umbrella), {including|together with} parking pilot and {garage|storage} pilot that autonomously manoeuvre the {car|automobile|automotive} into and out of a parking {space|area|house} or {garage|storage}. These are {part of|a part of} the Park {assist|help} {package|bundle|package deal}, {one of|certainly one of|considered one of|one among|one in all|one in every of} three {available|accessible|obtainable|out there} packages with {the other|the opposite} two being City and Tour. The Tour {assist|help} {package|bundle|package deal} comes with the adaptive cruise {assist|help}, which supplements the adaptive cruise {control|management} with lane-{keeping|conserving|holding|maintaining|preserving|protecting|retaining} {technology|expertise|know-how}. A zFAS central driver {assistance|help} controller handles these {systems|methods|programs|techniques}, and {depending|relying} on {equipment|gear|tools}, the sensor set {includes|consists of|contains} up {to five|to 5} radar sensors, {five|5} cameras, twelve ultrasonic sensors {as well as|in addition to} a laser scanner. On the mechanical {front|entrance}, Audi is {offering|providing} two engines - one diesel and one petrol- {both|each} with quattro all-wheel drive as {standard|commonplace|customary|normal}. The petrol unit is a 3.{0|Zero} litre TFSI V6 (A6 {55|fifty five} TFSI quattro) with 335 hp and 500 Nm of torque, mated to a seven-{speed|pace|velocity} S tronic {automatic|automated|computerized} transmission.
