Audi has finally revealed the all-new A6 and S6, but not everyone is convinced.
The new models mark a major shift for Audi, with the A6 and S6 becoming fully electric under the brand's new naming strategy.
So, is this the future of the executive sedan, or has Audi gone too far?
Let's take a closer look.
Up front, there’s a floating grille design flanked by large air intakes, and as has been a trademark on recent Audis, the headlights are super slim and come packed with tech.
There are electric release door handles along the side of the car, and it’s also possible to get the new A6 with cameras in place of traditional door mirrors.
Around the back, there’s a full-length light bar as well as a functional diffuser.
The Audi logo also lights up, which is a nice touch. Step inside and the interior is very similar to recently unveiled Audis like the Q6 & A5.
There’s a huge curved display that incorporates both the driver display and infotainment screen, and there’s also a third screen for the passengers built into the dash.
There are minimal physical buttons, though - pretty much everything is controlled through the infotainment screen.
When it comes to performance, there are several options. The most powerful A6 is the A6 e-tron Quattro, which has dual motors and 428hp. When it comes to the S6, it also has dual motors, but in this car they produce 503hp, rising to 551hp when in launch control.
The entry-level A6 has the largest range, with the 94.9kWh able to run for up to 466 miles. So what do you think - is this one of the most luxurious all-electric saloons or estates you can buy? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
Has Audi made the right move, or has it lost what made the A6 and S6 so special? Share your thoughts below.
